BlueMann:
Smell UCL?

We might not even make conference League.

I don't even want to play in Europe next season.

Any coach coming in should rebuild and challenge for EPL fully concentrated. Upper season we fit blend and enter Europe. Simple.

Start Havertz complain.

Bench Havertz complain.

Haba! Na wetin sef?!

I hope Koulibaly and Fofana no go dey that position for graphics. Them better swap o before Vini end Koulibaly career.

Trevor012:
We are all Chelsea today. Madrid should go and rest plus Chelsea will be an easier opponent for City to flog at the semis.


#Inlampardwetrust.

If it takes Madrid to kick Pep out, then let us lose.

I prefer to lose to Madrid than City. Make that our City final win dey intact.

popizaino:
Your questions should be directed to people who made the comments that there are no teams committing error leading to goal asides teams coached by Tuchel Abobi.

Ok.

raumdeuter:
Goretzka is the runner and Kimmich the 4. The DM. There is so much protection you can give Upa. Most of his errors were unforced errors. If you clone Makelele and Matthaus together nothing they can do to stop a determined Upamecano

In that case, na modern DM Kimmich dey play. I see him in shooting positions steady. I think he shot like twice from the edge of the box last night sef.

Makelele no fit cross centre circle as DM.

popizaino:
In your own word,show me were i said there are no other teams that have error leading to goals?

You are linking error to goals in UCL QF to teams coached by Tuchel. I didn't make it up. Refer to your last comment..

My question now is, are there no other teams that commit error leading to goal aside teams coached by Tuchel?

popizaino:
Abobi wetin now?


This stage last season Mendy error leading to goal

This season Upamecano error leading to goal

Pls find the common factor and thank me later.

Are you saying there are no other teams that have error leading to goal?

raumdeuter:
Cancelo is also bad at defending. So when you have 2 full backs in Cancelo and Davies who are only comfortable attacking and shaky defensively

With the way it is, Cancelo will be returned back to City ASAP

Who is the runner between Goretsker (spell check) and Kimmich?

That's another protection you guys need. It seem both of them dey rove anyhow. One suppose sit and protect the CBs.

afrodoc2:
It is as a result of our British football heritage. When the British were switching from W-M formation to 4-2-4 they numbered 5 and 6 as the CBs with 4 as the DM, but continental Europe went the other way with 4 and 5 as CBs and 6 as DM. Obviously the continental convention won.

Till tomorrow, I still dey refer 5 and 6 as CBs. Which one be 6 as DM? Lol.... I'm that old school abeg.

popizaino:


Time has a way of vindicating you if you remain patience.

My own was too much when i was ranting about this silly Tuchel's philosophy. Enjoy Tuchel and those his sexy cute back passes.

Stop the clownery.

Tuchel is not the only tactician that plays from the back. Every top coach does it.

Are you saying that it's only a Tuchel coached team commits error playing from the back?

andrew444:
Disasterclass Dey happen for almost every player ,dem get their bad days

We shouldn’t forget upamecano was a starter for the French team that made the World Cup finals

True, players dey get bad day at the office.

But you see that Upamecano performance last night? It's more than disasterclass. Coach for just put am out of his misery by pulling him off. So embarrassing.

And Upamecano of Bayern is way below what we saw in Leipzig. The guy form drop die.

raumdeuter:
Lucas Hernandez who tore his ACL at the world cup vs Australia

Then play Pavard in CB and Cancelo RB.

Upamecano no suppose smell second leg at all.

raumdeuter:
The entire game he was gash. I don't know why Tuchel didn't take him out. The only reason we bought him over Konate was injury.

By 75th minute I was certain that airmark must have hyped him in the past. Cos it looks diabolical.

You have made multiple errors which didn't get punished yet continue to try

He is big and fast but loses concentration in key moments especially when he tries to think to much. Instead of sending the ball forward immediately he tries to play cute.

He has been the same since I knew him

He did this thing countless times last night.

I mean, keep it simple. Make your passes on time before the press close in on you. There are times when Davies open for him with a run and he will just delay the ball and in that millisecond, 2 City players have closed him down. Either he scrambles back to Sommer or he makes an error.

Man City press is top notch.

Unlimited22:
Lol. In popular Naija parlance 6 na CB.

For Europe, 6 na DM

For Naija

2 na RB
3 na LB
4 na DM
5 and 6 na CBs
7 na RW
8 na SS
9 na CF
10 na AM
11 na LW

Classic 4-4-2

lordfalcao:
if dem convert all upamecano bad passes to goal na more than 5-0

I trust Mourinho. If na Mourinho, him for don pull Upamecano out sharp sharp!

Raumdeuter don't you guys have another CB to bench that French man?

raumdeuter:
Upamecano is such a disgrace

Before that goal, I counted 3 dangerous misplaced pass from Upamecano. Three! See as I dey shout my lungs out.

And after the goal, he still misplaced 2 more dangerous passes while trying to play from the back.

Last night was a match to forget for Upamecano.

Una wan finish a whole Man Utd legend?

Abeg o, I just pull that image from somewhere post here. No be me put Neville there o

Afrodoc2 you are correct, Zanetti should be the fourth name on the list.

At their very prime, choose one.

andrew444:
When we say majority of Chelsea fans are touts people think we are joking

How can a sane person rate potter ahead of tuchel?

Ever their owner self no get sense

He should have used that money spent on players invest in a good stadium ,But maga na maga

Sometimes you go just dey yarn dust here.

Only one person talk that rubbish talk, but it's majority of Chelsea fans that are touts.

Aside Ballzproblem, who else in this fan base said Potter is better than Tuchel? When is one person, majority?

BlaqFaze:
Dem say dem want "Creative" and "Expansive" football

Creative and expansive kee dem there!

rooftops:
Your James also was atrocious. I just hope the new right back comes in and outplace him.

Which match did you watch please?

FBS:
Na you I be dey look for. How do you activate siddon look mode please?

Just dey imagine say all these remaining matches na friendly preseason we dey play

No body fit tell me say our poor run under Tuchel for reach now

Four coaches in a season!

I no go blame Lampard shi shi. Dude no go fit fix anything for Chelsea in 10 matches. Make him just collect him choppings and waka season end.

BlueMann:
I don't deserve to suffer like this. I'm a good man.

Na you wan suffer bros.

Season don write off tey tey. No be today I enter "siddon look" mode.

Na only this blue blood wey dey flow for my vein dey make me still dey watch our matches now.

I'm just waiting for season to end make we know the direction we are headed as per coach.

BlaqFaze:
The points Tuchel won earlier is what is keeping this club from relegation zone

Comment of the day!

SimpleGuy001:
Wait first, I’m I the only one seeing this eyesore of a team. Abi they play fair cause this performance is beyond woeful, can’t find through pass, can’t even string passes together, leaving stupid spaces at the back

Abi ma my eye dey pain me ni

Bro your eye dey see well. Infact over see dey worry your eye.

Nonsense.

3 straight matches.

3 different coaches.

Zero goals.

SMH.

Gallagher start.

No Mount.

Griffon:
I dey fear people wey get a mad IQ, and it’s easily one of the reasons I don’t berate Frankie.

He could be a system manager who needs the right funds to build the sort of team he desires to play with, and a glance at his managerial career clearly shows that he hasn’t been privileged to work with such budget or even players.

It’s been shitty teams to work with, from Wigan to Chelsea (who were then placed under a transfer ban), to an ancestry inconsistent Everton side.

While he had an unfortunate brief stint with us, he was able to produce one of the best right backs in world football, one of the best defenders in Italy, one of the best forwards in Italy and a hardworking astute player in Mount.

This is the first time in his career he will be inheriting a good squad that has just a couple of dysfunctions. He could have some great ideas waiting to be explored.

You mean Derby County.

andrew444:
My most favorite part of the rigged World Cup ,when fifa paid Portugal and Ronaldo to allow Morocco throw them out of the World Cup

What has this got to do with Chelsea that you have to drop this comment here? This is Chelsea thread please.

Before long now, you will claim that Ronaldo fanboys are talking down on Messi that's why you have to come defend him here.

Just see the comment you drop here out of no where.

Let's be guided please.

FBS:
Wait o, e reach 4?

Yes na...

Tuchel
Potter
Bruno
Lampard.

FBS:
I agree it is sad and there is no hiding it.

The only way I can deal with this is to just forget and move on. No other way else it's a like beating a dead horse, it's a futile exercise mentally and physically.

For me, that chapter is closed.

No be you I being tell sometime ago say I don activate "siddon look mode"?

I'm just looking forward to next season, and UCL games.
