Is Jesus better than Torres, Moratta, Lukaku, Falcoa and Higuian that all struggled at Chelsea?

I don't think so. Gabriel is no target man. He can't play in Chelsea.


Batshuayi is part of the team. He will definitely play.
Minus Lukaku(young) and Morata(more of a SS THEN), The other guys you mentioned were already washed up due to injuries or something else.
Anyway it depends on the season sha. If we're talking when Cesc was in super form with Hazard - then G Jesus would do ok.
Jesus off the ball movement is miles better than that of Tammy imo

Oshoala did absolutely notin last season to dream of world best, in fact wat am I saying, she no even dey top 10 sef.But with d wat she has been playing in preseason, she just need to carry dat form into d season proper,and if dey are lucky and snatch d league from athleti women and also by mistake win the champe,den she can get a look in even if she dos nt win it.

She scored loads of goals and made it to the champions league final where she scored. Not enough for world best but definitely not absolutely nothing

If he looks like this and claims to be playing professional football in any league, am sorry I can't take that league serious. When it isn't for a novelty match. We know what he looked like before and that's not muscle, it's fat eod.

His reflex matters.

That's the same league Enyeama played before he went to France.

No! Morata was Chelsea main target man then. Falcao washed up? grin

He went to Ligue 1 afterwards and helped Monaco to win the league and reached the Semi finals of UEFA Champions League. grin

Is Huguian washed up? grin

Torres still went to La Liga and shined. He was not washed up. grin

Jesus will struggle at Chelsea. He is not better than all those players that struggled.

Nah, way too much muscle/fat affects agility.

Ejide was slim and slender at some point.

Morata mostly played as an SS at Juve when he was with Conte. Didn't really convince as a CF at Madrid (he scored 20 goals yes but still)

Falcao was washed. He had just come back from that injury and was well short of confidence after his spell at Manure. Only God knows how he regained a bit of form at Monaco

Higuain is washed. Dude was flopping at Milan before Sarri foolishly asked for him. Milan were more than happy to let him go and easily replaced him with Piatek.

Torres?? Lol seriously?? Everyone knows Torres was finished before he signed for you guys. Liverpool played a sharp one on you.
Jesus would do well in Conte and Sarri's sides (maybe even Ancelotti). Not with Mou for obvious reasons.

Look at all your old top level goal keepers.

Casillas, Buffon, Van Der Sar,

When they got older, they did not get all fat and muscular. They kept their shape.

That is part of what gave them longevity at the top level. You can not tell me that Ejide in this shape is still as good as he used to be.

I remember, he was poor in the last Nigerian game, i watched him in.

Our boys are scheduled to travel to China in two days and they still don't have their funds.

Apparently this has been going on since qualifiers. Players had to wash their jerseys with their own hands. Moreover, they were about to be homeless, but due to the NBBF's connections with Eko hotels, they were able to stay for free.

Jesus would do well in Conte and Sarri's sides (maybe even Ancelotti). Not with Mou for obvious reasons.

Morata was bought after his exploits as a Striker at Real Madrid.

Falcao returned from long injury but that doesn't tantamount to washed up. You can say he was out of form.

If Torres went to AM straight from Liverpool, he would had competed for the la Liga's top goal scorer. Someone who still scored double digit goals in Spain after he left Chelsea.

Torres scored 22 goals in all competitions the previous season before he was bought. How can we call that washed up?

Under Conte? grin Gabriel will look average under him because he can never bench Costa or play like him. grin

Sarri? Hehehehehehe! I don't think so.

that is why I said'if she stay focused and work hard'
After all, she has the potential.
Forget all those Holland and USA players... Sometimes, being African can work against you in the football world.
