Can we all appreciate Cucu as a LWB as well... so much better than LB.

Great to see him score, just has to be less selfish and he will be phenomenal.

Noni with slightly more vision would be a dangerous player.

This is the best 30 minutes of football we've played as far as structure goes. It actually looks like we have a proper plan. Tremendous.

Whatever Poch has told Mudryk to simplify the game for him today - please keep it up.

I'm not saying KDB isn't great - he just wasn't as impactful as Hazard. No shame in that. Its far easier playing for City than it is Chelsea. They've always had a more talented team than us even when we were winning titles against them. They've just been better managed as a club on an all around level for maintained success and continuity. If Hazard had ended up on Man City or Liverpool - you'd be talking about him as just under Ronaldo and Messi.

Literally all the headlines from that game were praising Hazard and Lukaku. Scoring the decider will always put you in good stead for the MOTM though. Again, against France, Hazard carried and KDB disappeared.

Wait. You're telling me a 21 year old can improve and it isn't all over and doom and gloom for us? I thought world class players are just world class. Doesn't matter the age. No one gets better and we need world class players everywhere right now. Why haven't we signed prime R9?

You literally come here to bitch and moan, and its all you do. Calling you a numpty is massive loser behaviour? lol Its literally what I call my nephews when they're being silly. If you can't take it, don't go outside to the real world.

Literally can't remember one great game KDB had for Belgium.

Again - saying things. I've said he isn't the problem, has done well enough, and has continually improved. Not giving a 22 year old in his 2nd pro season a chance to get better - literally the shit our fans have gone ape shit at management for. If you can't see there is potential for a phenomenal player in Jackson given his improvement and how little pro football he has, you're a numpty straight up. This isn't me tooting my own horn as some scout, because I'm as good as the next clueless fan - but spoilt bratty Chelsea fans like yourself know even less.

Its like the World Cup doesn't exist where we saw KDB be a passenger and Eden constantly carry them with historically great performances. Easy to look better when KDB has consistently throughout his career had a better team. Arbitrary and non measurable things are typically what we resort to citing when you can't explain. I don't ever remember KDB being in the Messi, Ronaldo and Neymar contest. Eden was.

What do I care about these "awards". I never mentioned anything about more accomplished. They literally played at the same time, at times on the same team, and Hazard was the better player. He played football better.

How does it feel to just say stuff, without even thinking? Consistently bad takes in every thread.

Who cares? Hazard was the better footballer.

Passing isn't just assists. These stats alone show exactly what I see. Better passer all around and I had no idea what the stats would say, but literally confirm what the eye test tells me. Caceido is the far more accurate and progressive passer.

Gallagher does not have better passing...

No thanks. Jackson is way better. Would rather wait on a proper CF talent. Fast, strong, technical, poacher. If they have 3 out of 4, they are usually a good fire prospect. Jonathan David is the only one I would go for - or just wait. VO if we spend 100 mil - sure.

Been our player of the month outside of Palmer. Says a lot considering how on fire Cole has been.

I did find it odd we bought Badi and him to begin with when they were the defensive duo for a team in the French league that wasn't that great defensively... They were regularly letting in amongst the most goals for a team in the top half of the ladder.

I thought Jackson sucked and can't develop neck muscles? Wasn't an easy finish at all, and the young striker puts it away.

I'm in favour of getting rid of both.

He is average, so fine to sell him for profit.

I disagree. Some sports have been set out like that, but football has a tradition and history that comes with it. And like we see with Newcastle and Man City - you can become a "big club".

Fuck the dirty cheats. I'd rather Arsenal or Liverpool win.
