Clockwork

Rudigar will be a forgotten player for me, finally playing his peak football and he decided to leave after reaching it and sustaining it in a period of 18 months.

Tuchel doesn’t have a successful track record of signing players. With Lukaku 0/1 at Chelsea. Anyway he is going to get opportunity to make big changes to the squad, players contracts are running out and some players are just not playing at Chelsea quality. if Alonso and Azpi are here next season playing a lot of football that is on Tuchel, because they should be out of the door if he can’t convince the club that is his fault. I don’t even know what Tuchel type of players are, outside of CBs he is not getting the best out of anyone at Chelsea.

We brought Havertz, Werner, Ziyech, Chilly. Six months before he took over.

Tuchel quotes regarding Kante sound like a huge excuse. No we are not where we are because Kante has not been fully healthy,

The team Tuchel inherited is much more talented and pricy. Am I advocating to sack Tuchel? No, I just think I have my doubts if Tuchel can take us to City and Pool level. Klopp built Dortmund and had a track record of building team, Tuchel doesn’t have that.

No doubt Tuchel had some solid results against those teams, but H2H only prove unique advantages. Over 38 games we see the team quality as a whole. Pep and Klopp showed improvement every year, with Tuchel it is the opposite We were better in his first couple of months than we are now. I don’t see Tuchel in the same realm as Pep and Klopp, I see those guys as visionary and club builders. Tuchel is more like Carlo, game day manager driven and focused.

Why do we have to move away from Jorginho and Kante to play 4-3-3? Jorginho has played in that formation for the vast majority of his career. At this stage of their career they would benefit from that move, I am a huge fan of 4-3-3, it is no coincidence that Barca dominated football with the same formation, Madrid dominance began when they played with 3 midfielders, and currently City and Pool are dominating the league with the same formation.

You guys have a way of going overboard of worshiping managers, i am lukewarm on Tuchel. I think he is solid enough to get us top 4, but I have not seen anything to suggest he can get us to compete against City and Pool in the league.

Tuchel is doing wonders with CB because Tuchel is playing with a back 5 and 2 defensive midfielders in front of them. It really is that simple, on other hand our attack would benefit with more attacking players on the pitch. We are not competing against Pool and City over a 38 games season if we don’t change that.

Being 20 points out of first place is not good enough, next season will tell us a lot about him.

Vardy is 35 is one of the top scorer in the league despite only starting 18 games due to injuries. Lewa would score for fun in the league.

Why sell Jorginho?

Wirtz is not a speedster like Chiesa, I would 100% gamble on him. He will be fine.

People made the same statement regarding Luke Shaw and John Stones, Rice is a solid player. Playing in a two man midfield is tough, if Tuchel tries to plug him in for Jorginho or Kante he would be extremely exposed. I don’t think Jorginho or Kante needs to be phased out, they need help. By playing 3 man midfield and no none of that 3-5-2 nonsense that makes the team more unbalanced.

Tuchel needs to take more blame

Idk I feel Kante is nowhere near his best nowdays.

Because common sense dude, and Lukaku himself said Tuchel convinced him to come to Chelsea. Chelsea board: what are your thoughts on Lukaku? Tuchel: he doesn’t fit my team Chelsea Board: ok cool we are going to spend a club record fee on him. if Lukaku was inexpensive and unknown player maybe, but to suggest that the club spent a record fee on a player the current manager didn’t want is illogical. You can argue that the board are incompetent but to suggest they are insane and unreasonable is a serious error.

What top midfielder would want to join Chelsea playing behind Jorginho, Kante, and Kovacic? Especially when we play a 2 man midfield? you are forgetting that Tuchel started Alonso at the beginning of the season and had shown confidence in him. His opinion has changed in recent months. 2017? lol Conte got a lot he just sucks at identifying them. We are still paying for his crap transfers like Bakayoko. I honestly think 2014 was when the board really let down a manager. After we won the PL, it was clear by the end of the season this team was running out of steam and we needed transfers to stay at the top. Back to Tuchel, he probably doesn’t think long term and knows the history of Chelsea managers. Regardless of fit, there are many managers think they could work around them, I have never liked Lukaku but he is considered a top striker. Tuchel is not in the same level as Klopp simply put, on some matchdays absolutely, but Klopp has a much better vision and able to get the best out of his players. How good were Salah, Mane, Robertson, etc? He has built a machine and can identify players that can match his team like a glove. I really don’t know how much clearer I can be regarding the Lukaku situation, there is no doubt if Tuchel gave the Chelsea board a warning that he is not a fit for his style then Lukaku would not be a Chelea player, and they would have looked for cheaper option and according to you they are cheap so that would have made happy right?

On one hand you are arguing that the board is cheap and doesn’t back the manager. On the other hand you are also arguing that the board spent a club record transfer fee on a player the manager didn't want. Lukaku also doesn’t fit the typical board signing , too expensive and not young enough. Here is what I believe what happened, the target were Harland and Lukaku. It became clear Haaland was a no go, so the attention turned to Lukaku. There is no doubt Lukaku wouldn’t be a Chelsea player if Tuchel didn’t want him and expressed that to the board. Tuchel probably thought we struggled to score last season, and Lukaku is one of the best goal scorer in the world. so tell me what makes more sense; Chelsea board are irrational beings who are hell bent on sabotaging the manager or that Tuchel simply miscalculated Lukaku fit?

Can’t imagine Lukaku being here next season seeing how apparent it is and how much he is playing recently.

Some people are not being honest with themselves, Lukaku himself said he was intent to stay at Inter, but Tuchel convinced him to come back to Chelsea.

Dan Gilbert is a mega donor to Michigan State University athletic department, the guy is extremely passionate about sport.

The Cubs success was primarily due to Theo Epstein, he also played a huge role with the Red Sox before. He is one of the most respected guys in baseball.

Huge fan of him, I think his future is in midfield. Pep would do wonder with him, like he converted Bernardo Silva. Getting rid of Lukaku and Werner is the main goal this summer. That should open up one incoming attacker and bring back Borja.

Here in the US more than 50% of the stadium recently built by the NFL were funded by tax payers/ government, what is the law in England regarding stadium subsidy.
