I wonder why we aren't actively searching for a new keeper. This area is our greatest weakness in the team right now, I believe that Gianluigi Donnarumma of AC Milan is within reach. A keeper should be our priority right now rather than chasing chilwell when we already have 2good left backs.

Lol.. Are u supporting a different Chelsea? grin grin

I'm not saying a new LB should be top priority but we don't have "two good left backs". Alonso can only play in a back three and Emerson is way too inconsistent

The issue with Kepa is that he signed a six year or deal or so, so getting rid of him would be a huge loss. I don't see the club doing that unless there is no hope for him at all

Alonso's statistics begs to differ. Alonso is a good attacking left back with a nice skill set to boot. Yes, his slow pace is his major undoing especially against the best teams but he still delivers the goods.

Alonso has one of the best statistics among all left backs in Europe currently. His set piece skill has also been invaluable to the team seeing as he is our best on that.
His slow pace is his major detriment but how many balanced left backs can you name in all Europe, and don't forget he came at a bargain price.

Secondly, Emerson seems inconsistent because he hasn't been given a consistent playing time. No player can be judged accurately on the basis of playing time consistency Emerson has been given.

The guy has shown he has good crossing skills and has nice footwork on the ball. He has been quite impressive on the few occasions he has played.
In my opinion, we don't need chillwell, since we have this two. Or else we are going for either Robertson or alaba who are worldbeaters, our leftback is covered.

The truth is that our defense is very unstable because it is constantly reshuffled. We rarely have the same starting lineup at the back and that affects the communication between the defenders.
The best defenses in football are those who are rarely reshuffled or changed. If you keep changing them constantly, they keep lacking cohesion and stability.

Meanwhile,


A thunderstorm has killed 18 suspected kidnappers at a forest in Adamawa State.

Sources said the men of the underworld were sharing ransom money they got from their victims when the thunder struck them.

The incident occurred within the Toungo Local Government Area of the state, local sources said.

Toungo is a town and local government area in the southern part of Adamawa State on the Nigeria-Cameroon border.

“The bandits, it was gathered, had collected over N20 million from their wealthy victims between Koncha in Cameroon and Toungo in Nigeria,” a source in Toungo said.

According to the source, the suspected kidnappers met their end because angry victims went spiritual against them.

“Angered by incessant attacks by the kidnappers, community leaders and victims consulted a native doctor to send thunder after the bandits. They met their Waterloo when they gathered to share the money,” the source said, adding that local hunters could not retrieve their corpses nor their money inside some bags as well as their weapons.

The Adamawa State Police Public Relations Officer, DSP Suleiman Nguroje, said Friday morning that the incident actually happened within Cameroon soil near the border with Nigeria.

“We heard that the victims engaged the services of a native doctor, but it was said to have occurred in the neighbouring Cameroon, which is not under our jurisdiction,” Nguroje said

Defensive stats?

Alonso is a decent LWB not a solid LB. We need an upgrade.

All I am seeing here is heresay. If indeed, a group of men were struck by thunderstorm where is the correlation between that and the crime being perpetrated?

These kind of news make waves because a lot of ignorant and superstitious folks believe these things. It's a shame that even the police will give credence to these kind of stories, but they are just a reflection of the unfortunate society they come from.

Just look at this thread below and tell me you will not be so ashamed living in the same country as these.

Alonso is poor defensively. It's not about being equitably balanced.

All those Alonso statistics u are quoting, u do know he played as a LWB not LB, right?
Even at Fiorentina, he played LWB. Alonso's lack of pace makes him a weak link in any back four...

At the beginning of this season, Lampard started with Emerson at LB and it got to a point where Azpi had to play there because of Emerson's on and off performances. If I remember correctly, there was a game he was even subbed off at half time because of his poor performance.

How will someone not reshuffle or change when the players playing those positions are performing poorly?

B4 this season, u would have had a point by saying Emerson has not been given a chance but at this time, he's been given more than enough and he failed to grab it with both hands.
I'm not in support of the Chillwell signing tho, because I believe Chelsea as a club don't need another English player (unless it's from the academy)...

The funny part is that Obaseki no even bother approach court to contest the thing because him sabi say na fake Kpali him dey carry around!

I am not even sure PDP will consider him because dem sef sabi say Obaseki Kpali na fake. Worst case scenario he joins PDP and wins, Osho will approach the court regarding his Kpali and they all know it is fake because na Osho give am the office in the first place...

Well, It is widely believed that he discovered electricity because of the proper documentation and records on that and the fact that there is no contradictory opinion towards it. However, if an incontrovertible evidence shows up tomorrow that points to a different person having discovered it, that will hold sway.

However, your analogy is very much displaced here. History has always been difficult to be properly documented, but here we are talking if juju, a phenomenom which is believed by many. Providing evidence shouldn't be difficult.

I'm just saying that compared to a lot of left backs currently out there, ours are still good enough or else we want to upgrade to the highest quality not someone like chillwell, especially for the amount quoted.

We need to focus on our goal keeping area which is very troubling at the moment.

True.. The left backs we are linked with are Tagliafico and Chillwell. I'm not convinced either of them would be an obvious upgrade on what we have currently...

What will make an evidence incontrovertible to you?

Till now, it is still an hearsay, that Benjamin did it as we only relied on reports. Just as it is an heasay that Thomas-Francois D'Alibard was the first to do it before Benjamin.

The point is, the report of thunder killing the kidnappers, was confirmed by the police, and it stands until another report debunks it.

The thunder issue is a mere coincidence. Nothing spiritual about it.

When you see this kind of news, you should first ask yourself how many of such cases involving sending thunder (or lightning) to alleged offenders has the native doctor achieved?

If the native doctor is really sure he has the technology to produce thunder (or lightning), FG will need his assistance to defeat Boko Haram and other criminals.

This kind of coincidences is a normal part of life. Apart from that, prayers and wishes (that get answered/granted) are also other interesting coincidences in nature.

When it comes to such coincidences, it doesn't really matter if you pray in any god's name, the wish will still come to pass even if you pray in your own name, or you simply make your wish without mentioning any name at all.

A common example in this part of the world is when power gets restored coincidentally immediately or soon after you wished for it without praying in any god's name.

Coincidences are a fascinating aspect of nature.
