cfcs most wanted

I just want this season to end, it's too tiring to watch the same shit manager, players , board etc etc. There isn't one good thing I could possibly point out about this club's current situation. Even while we were 10th, I still enjoyed watching Chelsea play, it just isn't about the results anymore, it's like the club has had it's passion sucked out, and I don't even know what changes should be made to make the situation better, when no one seems to care anymore ,from the players to the owner.

I am so fed up of people believing that quality is the thing that is most lacking in the club, not at all, it's leadership that's missing. You can't expect to be a goal up against united or Tottenham if your team isn't good enough, but they did, the problem is they fell apart later because there isn't anyone to guide them. I mean our captain is Azpilicueta for fucks sake, he is one of the best players in this world but he's not a leader, did you ever seen him trying to gear up Christensen or Courtois after their mistakes against Barcelona? He just isn't meant for being a leader. We have too many good players who play for their own well being and can't give any attention to maybe help their teammate who is probably not in the best of conditions
Now as to why this is in the Conte thread, leaders are not born, they are made. This is quite a young squad, it was up to the manager to convert them into a squad rather than a team of brilliant individuals, and not only has he failed miserably, he is the most fuck all amongst them. Before new signings we need a manager who could instill confidence and passion that has been long lost amongst these players.
 

Everyone understands this view point that he didn't have the players to finish in the top 4, but that's not why most of the people have started disliking him (I think atleast I'm speaking for myself), you might be discontented that you don't get the players you wanted, but you don't go moaning about it every week, you still have a job, you go out and do it, the Manager instilled confidence in the players the last season, this season It's just the sense that these guys aren't good enough, granted you might not be too happy about the condition at the club, but you can do loads better than giving that ideology to the players and cutting a grumpy figure.

Nobody has ever downplayed his commitment, just his ability to be a LWB. The basic requisites for a LWB for me are Good crossing, speed, Defensive ability, tracking back etc. Alonso isn't too good in Defensive positions, and neither has the speed or agility to be a wing back, the goals and his attacking vision are a great thing to have obviously, but this really shouldn't mask his other inabilities. Of course you don't need to have a World class player in every position, but you do need someone who'll atleast fit into the position, and his abilities qualify him more as a poacher rather than a wing back.

I think with Hazard the case is more with his thinking rather than his abilities, for me he is the best dribbler in the world with no exceptions, yet he doesn't often put it good use, even while Willian has largely limited ability in dribbling as compared to Hazard, whenever he gets the ball, he tries to run at defenders with it, trying to make chances, with Hazard the case seems more of making the passing look beautiful rather than of any good value. I know Hazard is the last of our problems, just something I think he should work on

How in the world you manage to make so many mistakes on regular basis and still keeps your place in the team? If Cahill was at his place Chelsea fans would destroy him without hesitation. 

Just shows how Willian should be played, he was amazing in a free role, has been used more for defensive purposes throughout his Chelsea Career, but this displays his attacking quality

This is not word play going on, I'm pretty damn sure you know what he meant

Well even if we appoint Pochettino, I don't think even he will take chances of playing the youth here, because the board members and Abrahimovic will be out for his head when he doesn't win anything. The club is stuck between accepting their current position and still being dreamy about the last decade or so. We are just not the same club financially anymore, if we have to reach somewhere we have to emulate the Spurs or the Atletico model, because we are no longer a financial superpower. I know it's hard to accept, it was for me as well, I was one of the many people wanting Conte out, but I have changed my perception, what the club needs right now is not a new manager, just patience, because managers are no miracle workers, they have to work with what they have, if Conte is given backing by the board, he might as well build a great team from our extremely talented youth team.

For me Hazard will always be a Chelsea great, people calling Hazard and Courtois Belgian cunts for their acts with the media will always be beyond me. Maybe they are a little outspoken, but they chose to be at this club for so long, when they could have easily made a bigger name, earned a bigger paycheck and won more trophies. Yet they still remain, so even if you don't like them, yet their loyalty to this club can't be challenged, atleast not for me

I'm glad he has stayed here so long, but it's a bit sad that he has pretty much wasted himself here. Sure, 2 EPL titles in 6 years is cool and all (not really), but we never kicked on after that CL win - the reason why he joined in first place, thinking we were ambitious and going places. He couldn't have been more wrong. We haven't challenged for the CL since, have been in decline and the club implodes after every successful period. No sustainable success, just scraps here and there with subpar players and subdued performances.
For me he is a legend for sticking with us through all that (possibly because of false hopes or promises), but nevertheless he has shown more loyalty than some others who enjoy legendary status. I wouldn't blame him at all if he left this summer, I would too if somebody better came calling.

Replace Hazard with Neymar in this squad and he would crumble like a little flower he is.

Not even a whole year and he is already more annoying than Costa, atleast Costa had some intent in himself, this guy is not even trying to play, throwing himself to the ground and moaning for not getting a foul, it was just pathetic. I know what he did can't be considered a dive, but i don't think he has such a poor physique to be going tumbling down at every finger that touches him. 

Yeah I kinda understood that later, sorry 😛

Or don't bother stopping Moses and let him slam the ball aimlessly in to the box or out of play.  Alonso wants to cut inside because he's not going to beat you for pace.
Basically, they stop themselves, I guess is what I'm saying. 
Kante and Bakayoko won't pass the ball forwards, and that leaves Cesc trying to take the top off the defence.  Now that everyone is closing down Azpi, there goes our "goal move".  That leaves Morata on the ground trying to get a cheap free kick or Hazard looking at 5 players all facing him up.

The worst thing about him is not the fact that he sucks, but that he has this most whiny look on his face when he throws himself to the floor looking for fouls. About as annoying, and unlikable, as Costa was trying to pick fights with everybody.

He really hasn't and isn't.
Very rarely he actually has bad games, even in the average one's he's driving the team and creating more chances than everyone else combined bar Cesc. 

I know Hazard is our best player but for god sake, he's not immune to criticism! Every time he goes AWOL, people keep finding excuses for him. Did anyone see the number of times he gave the ball away against Leicester? Had it been Willian, people would have thrown him under the bus.

What is with all this praise for Drinkwater all of suddden? He is good backup mid, thats all. I dont like Cesc too much, but he still has more quality over Drinks. 
Yes Drinks is more mobile, but absolute average in everything else. Decent player who can be used sometimes, but not even close to top standards. 
The fact that he is among candidates for starters says more about lack of quality among our midfielders than quality of Drinkwater. 
I swear its like bandwagon reaction over Drinkwater. People imagine his good season in leicester, his wonder goal last week and fact that he can run more than Cesc and suddenly there is ilusion he is actualy chelsea 1st quality. 
I like Drinkwater and he is valuable player, but if he is nowhere near quality of chelsea 1st 11 midfielder. 
Bakayoko as poor he is, he had good games against United and Atletico away. He still has potential to be good. Drinks on other hand isnt as bad, but just because he is slightly above average every game doesnt mean he will make our team much better.

It's not just about today, he has been missing sitters in almost every match. I quite understand the points about him creating chances. But scoring is a basic quality for a striker. It can't be the aspect that is missing. 

He doesn't look too promising to me, because he still hasn't shown a good skill set for me. But he would get better i hope

The manager is the only reason the club is in the top 4 right now. Can't see the bunch of Morata, Bakayoko etc, winning each matchweek. Many bad transfers that Conte has had to deal with. but he has made this team punch above it's weight, with the kind of players we really have. Just imagine what he would do with a decent transfer window.
