So Aguero still had more career goals than benzema despite retiring last year at age 33 with is younger than benzema age ? E no go better for heart problems

Meanwhile where is drogba here ? Drogba doesn’t even have more goals than David Villa grin
Calm down. Drogba is not a 100goal/season player. He is a big game player. He scores quality goals, not quantity perse.

Ibime Tuchel made it clear that Cucu is not here to take over Chilwell's position.

In a back 4, they will battle it out. But in a back 5, Chilwell will still retain his LWB role while Cucu will slot into LCB.

And Pep pulling out of the Cuc deal shouldn't be a standard for us. Man City is using one eye to look at FFP while Chelsea, for now, is free of that because our debts have been cleared. So we can make some signings that City will walk away.

For me, Cucurella transfer is very OK. International or not, the potential is very clear for all to see there. Watch out how Spanish NT LB position will shape up in the next few years.

I am in no way in support of the amount of money we spend on transfers thus window. Its just crazy. But I'll not blame other clubs much. Boehly is a newbie in the transfer market, and the money is there so any club that sees Chelsea coming their way will try to milk us dry.

Havertz10:
When I called out lukaku was it because of havertz, it’s very simple, natural strikers will struggle at Chelsea, it’s so obvious, this is not because I like havertz, it’s a matter of taking actions that would be beneficial to our club, auba isn’t the way to go, this was how you guys kept saying that Lukaku would complete the system and it failed, open your eyes, sterling has stated clearly that he came to start games, auba almost burnt down arsenal when he was sidelined, so you have 2 permanent starters that are by and large limited

Add mount and we are in for a long season of wailings, watch our game against spurs again and focus on havertz, his intelligent pressing led to so many turnovers for Chelsea, he brings a lot to our play, what’s going to happen when we play sterling, auba and mount

Forget bants the sole aim of all these drama here should be the success of our club
If you have been long enough on this thread, you will know my stand on Lukaku right from time. Ask Nihilist and Airmark, they will tell you. There is a reason Nihilist was mentioning me for every goal Lukaku scored the first month he came.

Stop throwing words around like the bolded. Know who said what before spilling nonsense.

Having said that, my post don't have anything to do with this your reply. I asked you, if Aubameyang coming to Chelsea threatens Mount position specifically, will you be against the transfer like this?

Is it not hilarious that you are using Havertz intelligent pressing to make a case for him when it is the same you who tag Mount "pressing iron" not too long ago to troll him?

If you really want the best for this club, you will allow an EPL proven goalscorer to come in and try to fix our goal scoring problem for us. Club success comes first before any individual player.

I have been supporting Chelsea since 1996 and I have never supported an individual more than the club because I support Chelsea, not e.g Drogba Cech Hasselbaink etc..

Once you wear the blue jersey, I welcome you because you are part of my club now. Below is my post on Lukaku when his transfer was confirmed.

timbros:
My criticism of Lukaku pre Man United is well documented on this thread.

However, watching his development over the years, especially in Inter Milan, and his performance in Euros, coupled with the fact that I am a core Blue supporter who supports everything Chelsea, I wholeheartedly welcome Lukaku to this great football club.

Welcome home Big Rom.
I am 99% sure that you will move on from Chelsea the very day Havertz leave this club. As far as I am concerned, you are not a Chelsea fan.

Lol... I don't think it have reached that extent.
United just need 3 core players that can effectively play how Ten Haag wants: Two in Midfield and one in attack.

De. Gea
Dalot. Varane. Lindelof/Bailly .Malacia

New signing,. New signing

Eriksen/ Bruno

New signing. Cr7. Sancho/Rashford


A team like this at least would be able to garner much needed points especially against the small teams
Baba is Man Utd allowed to play with 12 men? grin grin

lordfalcao:
this is why people will be looking for second man assist on midfielders.

Mancity creates a lot, converts more than half. We will create and miss more than half of our chances..

The only reason , some are against this deal is because aubameyang Will outscore haverts..
Anything wey make us dey convert our chances in wholesale, na City we go dey contend no be Liverpool sef.

Our problem na goal scorers. There is no way our attack won't improve with Sterling and Auba there. Na wao.

If you break those big chances down sef, Jorginho go get some chunk from inside. But na Jorginho be our problem.

it's really funny Tbh.
Once one person talk something and repeatedly says it, it becomes the truth even though it might be a lie.
Imagine the myth of saying Chelsea doesn't create enough chances grin
I don paste screenshot for am directly from EPL website. Make him argue with the stats there.

Man City is the only team that created more big chances than us last season, yet Liverpool gathered more points than us. The problem? Conversion rate. Salah, Mane, Jota and co converts their chances while Lukau, Werner, Havertz and co fumble ours. That's just the difference.

If Auba comes, I believe our conversion rate will increase.

I no carry Auba matter for head as per say na him be the best striker around, No. But for the short term (a season or two) he can provide us those goals to compete in the highest level till we source a long term replacement for Lukaku and Werner that left. I no know whether na Havertz and Broja a big club Like Chelsea go use fight in four different competitions?

Of course we don't. Most of the paltry chances we create come from wingbacks and Auba isn't really the ideal striker for that.
Does this look like paltry number of chances created?

Havertz10:
The premise that people are pushing to justify this transfer is that because giroud was successful, it automatically means that auba will be successful

Mehn it’s really sad
You know why people don't take you serious? Because of you Havertz bias.

Your problem is not Auba's age, price tag etc... Your problem is the threat on Havertz game time.

To prove my point, let me ask you something. What will be your take if Auba's arrival specifically threatens Mount's place in the starting XI? Will you honestly be against the transfer?

you don't get my point ,if aubameyang was white most of our African fans won't be complaining
I get you. And I still maintain, leave skin color.

Chelsea fans loves African players as much as their white counterparts.

No one is judging Auba because of his skin color.

Chelsea is well known to accommodate African players. And the fans love them all.

No just go there.

Havertz has goals in him egbon. From his movements on and off the ball, you'd know he has goals in him. We can choose to be patient with him. TT knows why he needs Auba tho and I won't fault him. If Auba comes tho, one of Havertz or Mount will man the bench consistently and that's not good for their growth.
We've been seeing this for 2 years now, no be today.

If it takes Auba's arrival to make him start scoring those goals, then so be it.

Movements without end product, who e help?

Ibime:
Arnautovic is 32 and does not depend on pace. His hold up play is 10 levels above Auba, plus he was 31 when I recommended him on free transfer, super low wages in comparison to Auba, and only considered as a backup Incase Havertz fails. And Auba had stopped scoring for Arsenal for 18 months. The poor form preceded the disciplinary and tactical issues. If Auba had been scoring for Arteta there would be no disciplinary problem
Aubameyang will do well in Stamford Bridge. It's a gamble I feel we should take.

Arnautovic is actually 33.

BlueAngel444:
u do know Aubameyang can become a free agent next year, that's what even makes it very silly to buy him now for 20+m for a 33yr old who may not play more than 3yrs at the club
Like I said earlier, the price is crazy.

I'm not looking at Auba transfer from the financial angle. But purely from the footballing angle. He is a gamble I believe will work for us for the short term.

We all know that any transfer that involves Chelsea becomes something else. Bissouma went to Spurs for £25m but if it was Chelsea, it would be nothing less than £45m.

We done mad for this thread, accepting a 33 year old man for £20m+ that Arsenal chased away and paid £5m to tear up his contract just 7 months ago
Arsenal let go of Aubameyang because of disciplinary issues, not footballing reason.

Arnautovic is 33 also but you have no problem him being a short term fix for us.

The price quoted is crazy but then, if we can bid £75m+ for Fofana, buy Cucurella for £62m+ then why not pay for a proven goal scorer who has EPL experience? This is a Chelsea team who has midfielders as the last 2 EPL top scorers Mount (11) and Jorginho (7).

This Aubameyang deal dey do me somehow for body.

We should let Havertz man that front deputised by Broja/Sterling.

Nawa
I support Auba purchase, short term.

He has goals in him. And that's exactly what we need: a striker who can score goals.

3-4-1-2 with Mount/Havertz in the hole behind Auba and Sterling go make sense.

If you consider the history Auba and TT get, the transfer will make sense to you.
