Zidane was not a late bloomer. He was already a star at Bordeaux.


You can continue with the rest of your other misinformation.

Lol..

Do you, Popizaino, know Zidane at Bordeaux?

airmark:
So, if they ask you if Man united prepared Sancho for 2023/2024 Epl season, you would say NO, because he didn't play many games for them this season.

You must be on colos.

You no go ever accept your goof. Na to embarrass yourself dey sweet you well well.

Sheva that Don Carlo let go is who airmark wants us to believe he is part of 4 CFs Chelsea was preparing for the season.

Dey get small shame nah..

You can do better than this, airmark.

How did Chelsea prepare Shevchenko for 2009/10 season? A season he played just 4 minutes and left for Ukraine.

WhoDeyHause:
Colwill has mistakes in him but not up to badiashile and Disasi.
We both know James is one of the best defensive full backs in the world if not the best and he's also part of a back 4 not a front 4.

Colwill is just there. Nothing spectacular. Colwill cannot have the Palmer effect in our defence.

The good thing about James is his attacking output. So while he is superb defensively, we still miss him in attack too. It took him less than 5 minutes to assist the much maligned Jackson. Who knows what would have happened if he had played more this season.... Could Jackson have been on 25 goals by now? Think about it...

WhoDeyHause:
That's why we need to get another striker until whenever he develops and decides to start cooking. A club as big as ours cannot be parading the young shall grow everytime.

Evidently the direction the club hierarchy is heading to believes in "young shall grow" too much. If not, this total clear out and 24 years and below signings won't happen like this.

Make we siddon dey look as things pan out. The team go cook, but when? That's the problem...

WhoDeyHause:
Jackson is my club's striker let other club fans go and hold their own club striker's especially when they mess up in potential title deciding matches.
Yes with fofana, James, Colwill and to an extent Silva more fit I believe we'll have a better defence than what we currently witness.

Is it the Colwill we watched earlier in the season or another Colwill? James is not CB by trade.

airmark:
What's your point now, when I asked Chelsea to get 2 CFs next season and that's what Unlimited22 is against?



Did they register Shevy for Epl 2009/2010 season. Yes or No?

You are beyond repair.

Did he play a role in our win that season that warrant you to name him among Chelsea CFs? Was he registered for UCL that season if he is that important? How did Chelsea prepare him for the season? By playing him for 4 minutes and shipping him out?

You have pride issues.

WhoDeyHause:
Oya you don catch me for that one. But the facts still remains Jackson needs to work on his shooting to be taken more seriously in his career. And we also need a new striker to give him competition.

I couldn't have agreed more.

Pure facts.

WhoDeyHause:
Boss the suffering don taya me.
No be for my club person wey wan bloom late go do late bloomer when we need results sharp. We are not evening newspaper FC.

I never said he is a late bloomer biko. Before that will become the talk here now.

I'm just giving example that you don't expect everybody to develop and start cooking at exactly the same time. Next season might be his season and you will be here apologising the way you did for Palmer.


Calm down.

WhoDeyHause:
Even without nkunku, Carney, madueke James and chilwell we still created numerous chances that were begging to be put away. For Jackson to even be in double digits despite the chances he missed bear facts.
But when you have Silva, your captain and best rb who's also one of your best defenders and fofana out before season starts making you to play tower of babel twins abi how ibimee dey call them. Remember gbanchez was also costing us with his selling match abilities at a point too before Petrovic came in and cast him to the bench.
Our defense was still decent last season even in 10th compared to the attack which we complained about since last year before these past few weeks.

Again, Jackson is not the only striker who miss chances.

Are you telling me that it's Fofana James and Colwill that will help you keep clean sheets that will improve the defence?

If our defence was decent last season, what is the situation this season?

WhoDeyHause:
Drogba truly didn't score much but he mostly turned up in the biggest of games for a more defensive Chelsea team.

In his first season?

airmark:
Jackson's father, tell your son to go on loan and come good. Colwill, James, Gallagher all went on loan before they came good and they got their shirts.

Chelsea is not a team to be experimenting. We need results.

If you don't know the difference between those names you listed and Jackson, I don't know what else to tell you.

How much did we sign James? Gallagher? Colwill?

WhoDeyHause:
That's why age is not an excuse in this problem. Who don good don good.
A starting striker for the biggest club in London cannot be missing 1v1s frequently or be missing in the biggest of games. If we were in the champions league and we struggle to enter final then Jackson starts misbehaving like in the domestic cups how many fans would still plead patience with him? No matter how good you are in link up football, pace, dribbling, positioning, movement once fans start questioning your finishing as a striker you know something is wrong.

I'm sure you know what "late bloomer" means..

Not everyone start cooking at the same age.

Zidane is a typical example of late bloomer.

airmark:
Chai, you are beyond repair.

Because of your busybody, you didn't understand the point I was driving at, before jumping into what didn't concern you.

Chelsea of those years, prepared 4 CFs for the season, so they wouldn't get caught napping with injuries during the season. Why can't we do such when Man City, have 2 solid CFs and over the years they have been the team to beat.

Must one spoon-feed you before you could understand simple stuff?

And I am here proving it to you that it's a lie. A big fat one. Three strikers, yes. And the third one is always either an academy player promoted or a young striker. E.g Sturridge in that 2009/10 squad or Solanke in the 2016/17 squad. Every big team have basically 2 CFs plus a young striker or academy graduate.

What do you need four CFs for?

Drogba and Anelka played majorly, same with Costa and Batsman....

Shevchenko became surplus to requirement. Chelsea never prepared him for the season. He was let go. Ditto Loic Remy.

At no time did Chelsea prepare 4 CFs for the season. To do what exactly?

forgiveness:
Confidence!!!? I don't think so. The dude has strong mentality and confidence but his decision making is average.

His output have shown he's had an okay season. Nothing spectacular, but not poor the way people try to make it look.

Jackson have outscored Drogba's first season both in the league and total in all competitions. Make una free the guy.

WhoDeyHause:
Boss How old is palmer?

Must everybody of the same age act exactly the same way?

WhoDeyHause:
This is another major reason why I'm on the attack is a bigger problem crew.
With the likes of captain James, fofana, Silva, Colwill injured frequently compared to our front men.

Don't forget Nkunku, Carney, even Madueke.

James and Chilwell form a big part of our attack too, remember.

forgiveness:
Sure but I know about Jackson missing chances. That one na instinct or experience wey em lack.

Confidence issue.

Dude is just 22, abi 23. I'm positive he will come good.

forgiveness:
No waste your time. We need to strengthen both defense and attack.

Mind you, defense needs to be strengthened because of how Poch set up his team.

Those defenders might be good under another coach.

And the attackers too.

I don't know who are the personnels in our medical team, but they need to be reshuffled badly. Our injury record is nothing to write home about. And the rate these injured guys relapse is a big cause of concern.

These are some of the things that can improve a team. Not only buy buy buy buy.

forgiveness:
Let us both agree that both department needs to be strengthened. Gbam

If you have been following my posts here, you will know this has been my stand since.

Score more, concede less. Balance.

forgiveness:
What about if he had scored those missed chances? The score could had been 2:1 in favour of Chelsea.

Mo we talk true.

Should we go into the "if" path?

I can play that game very very well.

forgiveness:
I am in no way exonerating Defense.

Neither am I hailing Jackson as the best thing after slice bread.

forgiveness:
One of the major reason.

We should be Champions of Caraba cup by now if he didn't miss. And in FA cup finals if he had scored.

Won Arsenal and Mancity if he didn't miss.

Could be argued too that Chelsea would have won Carabao Cup if the defence was more tight. VVD scored from a set piece, VAR came to our rescue. Same VVD scored from set-piece again deep into extra time. Which kind of defence is that?

airmark:
FA and Chelsea registered Shevy in our squad of 2009/2010. Face the point raised and rest.

Since he was registered, where is his winners medal?

Can you show us a picture of him celebrating with the team, lifting the trophy?

Your problem is not accepting your goof.

Season started but transfer window is not closed yet. Shevchenko managed to make bench in second game of the season, a match Chelsea won Sunderland 3-1. In the 86th minute, Sheva was brought in. So he basically played 4 minutes in that match. Few days later, he departed to Dynamo Kyiv.

Because of agenda, airmark felt Shevchenko should be named as one of strikers Chelsea used to win EPL in 2009/10. Continue.

Even the Sturridge you added there scored just a solitary league goal that season. Our main attackers that season was Drogba, Anelka, Kalou and Malouda.

airmark:
Our last 3 Epl title wins, we had more than 2 natural CFs in the teams. But see this season, we have only Jackson as our CF.

Rest.

Is this why you added Shevchenko to our strikers in 2009/10 and Loic Remy to our 2016/17 winning teams?

Why lie to make a supposed point?

forgiveness:
Oga, Jackson try but because of him we are where we are now on the league if you consider the crucial missed chances.

Chelsea needs to add 1 or 2 strikers to compete against big teams.

Stop yarning dust.

If Chelsea defence did not concede a record number of goals in a season, we won't be where we are today.

Do you know how many points we dropped from winning positions? Arsenal just kept their 11th clean sheet of the season. Do you think they will be where they are today if they were conceding needless goals here and there even when their strikers are scoring goals?

Jackson needs to improve, yes. But is he the reason we are where we are today? Capital NO!

forgiveness:
It's part of the game.

Because it's Jackson, abi? Okay.

forgiveness:
36 goals out of 69 chances. That's a pass mark.

With how many penalties?

airmark:
Unlimited opined that no need for more than 1 CF to contest for the league and I pointed out two seasons we won the Epl and we got even more than 2 natural CFs in the team.

As usual, you just jumped from nowhere to a convo you weren't abreast of. Who do you this thing?

Below are also our strikers when we won the league in 2014/2015 season. Rest your busy body.

Stop doing this to yourself man! Is it old age or what?

airmark:
So we should buy a new LB that will bench an English Vice captain of the team, right?

If Chilwell is not leaving, then no need buying another LB that will struggle to bench our English Vice captain, especially when Cucurella is looking manageable.

Chelsea's 2009/2010 Epl winning squad had Drogba, Shevy, Anelka and Sturrudge as our CFs.

Chelsea's 2016/2017 Epl winning squad had Diego Costa, Loic Remy, Batshuayi and Solanke as CFs.

The standard has really dropped for you to be thinking having 2 solid CFs, is too much of a call.

It's high time you stopped seeing Chelsea as Aston Villa. In fact Jackson is not even near Watkins in finishing.

forgiveness:
So, tactical problem made Jackson to miss 22 chances, abi?

Haaland must be a very terrible striker.

airmark:
Was Shevchenko registered and did he play for us in Epl that season or not?

I should be asking who inflicted you with the marine spirit of diving anyhow into my post.

You are mentioning strikers Chelsea have in 2009/10 season when we won EPL and you no shame to mention Shevchenko.

A player that made an 86 minute substitute appearance in Chelsea's second match of the season before being sold off to Dynamo Kviv.

If he played for us, why didn't he get a winners medal?

How about Loic Remy?

Make you dey shame small for informations wey you dey ditch here. We are not kids. Even without Google, any true Chelsea fan knows that Sheva was NOT part of Don Carlo's fearsome attack that scored 103 goals in 2009/10.

Shevchenko 2009/10? Remy 2016/17?

Airmark who do you this thing?

Please can you show me Shevchenko EPL winners medal in 09/10 and Remy's medal in 16/17
