Clockwork

I value a wide player based on their ability to beat players 1 vs 1, I just don’t see the ball control, acceleration, dribbling. I like the off the ball movement though.reminds me of Arsenal Pepe. I watched Luis Diaz before he went to Liverpool I knew he would excel.

Nkunku does not look Chelsea quality. Prefer Sterling.

I agree with you on Rudigar and Kounde. btw what is the opinion of Darwin Nunez?

I personally never understand the luck argument, or when players, managers, fans, etc argue the result wasn’t fair or they deserved better. Our 2012 CL was no lucky either, many years of success and failures lead to that. In fact that team was less lucky, if you consider losing to penalty against United years ago, Andres Iniesta late equalizer that sent that to the final.

I don’t recognize the irrelevant flag of your country, so I wouldn’t be able to insult you. Rudigar, AC, and Azpi all have expiring contracts. Back 4 is the norm in football, the majority of teams are able to field it. The situation is giving the opportunity to recruit those players.

So did RDM, Tuchel has done well enough to buy more time. People complain about our attackers yet at the same admit, Tuchel tactics only benefits our defenders. Unless he changes we are going to continue to be competing for 3/4, anyone is watching this team toward end of the season thinking wow this team could be PL winner?

I don’t see Lukaku here next season, his ego is too big to fight for his position. He will push for an exit.

Worse winning percentage than Sarri.

Who is benefiting from the 3-4-3?

I see Danjuma as a better finisher/scorer but I like Antony close control and acceleration. See a bit of the left footed version of Hazard.

Got to judge players on skill and traits. Because that ultimately translates not what league they played. I liked Ziyech, but not as FW. I was hoping he would be utilized like he was early in his Ajax career as a #8. If he was at City he would probably an alternative to KDB. In the PL you have to have the acceleration to beat players 1 on 1 if you are going to play as a wide forward.

Thoughts on Antony?

MBZ drives a lot of influence.

I also dislike City because they are state owned by UAE, who are very much responsible with what is going on in Yemen.

We are not catching Pool overall count, not in my lifetime anyway. But Pool has 1 PL title in the modern era so there is that, we can brag about that.

Obviously we are talking about the league.

City is more Chelsea competition than Pool. If they win the EPL they would surpass our count.

I hate City more than Pool.

There maybe some truth I don’t think he utilizes players to their best. many are excited about Gallagher but man I fear Tuchel will plug him in his 3-5-2, and that recipe for a disaster and he will perform poorly. That is not Gallagher fault he is just not that type of midfielder.

The disrespect smh. There is no point arguing with someone who downplays a player of Jorginho stature and accomplishment, while elevating Tchouaméni who has done nothing. Ndombele and Bakayoko were all supposed to be the next great thing. I wouldn’t mind signing Tchouaméni, but how about he proves something before we sell a strong performer on this team.

Feel Tchouameni is a huge downgrade from Jorginho.

I don’t believe Rudigar, you shouldn’t either.

One of my favorite Mount performance this season was against spurs when he was a #8, he absolutely tore spurs apart with his movement. Would love to see more of that next season.

Good question, what is it? For pep and Klopp I know exactly how to answer that question.

I am hoping Tuchel has a plan and create a team to fit his image and style. But I don’t have the same belief because what I have seen doesn’t suggest that.
