LDN Blue 7,903 Posted April 15, 2016 Share Posted April 15, 2016 Quote How Chelsea Have Descended Into Goalkeeping Chaos In Just 12 Months Jose Mourinho, who made many questionable decisions to release players during his second spell at Chelsea, dug his heels in. Cech, he told the club, must not be allowed to leave. But Cech was always a big-game player both on and off the pitch, and having ingratiated himself with Roman Abramovich, he managed to argue what was in effect a testimonial transfer. It was John Terry who said that Cech was worth 15 points a season to any club, and just look at the table now, where Arsenal sit precisely that distance away from Chelsea. In the months that followed Courtois, by his own admission, did not cover himself in glory. When the book of this season is written, perhaps 10 years hence, there will be a number of factors that point to why it went so badly wrong. Courtois’ flapping and poor commanding of the box is just one of many issues, and it is tricky to truly see from this perspective whether it is a cause or effect of all the other chaos. Having sunk all of that time and focus into his development, he is now being strongly linked with a move away: back to Spain; back to Champions League. And, from having the best two ‘keepers in the league just 12 months ago, Chelsea now risk having neither. http://www.umaxit.com/index.php/columns/how-chelsea-have-descended-into-goalkeeping-chaos-in-just-12-months Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomo 21,751 Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 Its quite funny the Courtois near post thing, I just watched back all the goals we conceded while Tibo was out and Asmir conceded three goals at his near post (2nd vs Porto, Steven Davis leveler for Saints and Zarate opener for WHU), I'm only flagging this now because I haven't seen two of them goals upto now due to being in football practice while the games were on at the time (for obvious reasons I didn't watch the highlights back then). Interesting to say the least. Essien19 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xPetrCechx 13,570 Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 Today's game is potentially Courtois last game for Chelsea. Ever. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

God I hope not, as much as Begovic is a good back up, selling Courtois and making Asmire number one would make selling KDB to play Oscar look like a masterstroke.

Beigl 1,387 Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 If not for him we would have conceded even more goals. Finally a good performance for a change. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lucio 5,418 Posted April 16, 2016 Share Posted April 16, 2016 can't really fault him for the goals, not much a goalie can do , when donk decides to slide tackle thin air. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue-in-me-Veins 4,067 Posted April 17, 2016 Share Posted April 17, 2016 The American Broadcasters every 5 mins kept bringing up how "Courtois didn't pledge his future to Chelsea", and once he was sent off it became "Is this the last time we see Courtois in a Chelsea shirt?". I hope we keep him, he is too special a talent to lose. He's been awful these final 3 months conceding near post goals like an amateur. But the defense hasn't done him any favors, and the man's only 23. Ironically enough, he ended his season, the same way it began. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post! Hybrid Angel 2,130 Posted April 19, 2016 Popular Post! Share Posted April 19, 2016 Tibo's bad form doesn't concern me one bit. In fact, it is better to have a dip in form now where there is nothing to play for rather than next season. He's young, talented, and world class. Letting go of him would be foolish. He will be back to the very top next season. And as if Cech never experienced poor form. People here really like to compare the present to the 'perfect' old times.
