Vlahovic still too early. Should seriously just do Havertz & Broja and see how they fair. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lol Broja at the very least looks good in the Premier League. There is always the risk of buying STs from Italy or Germany. Other than Haaland, there really is no stand out ST atm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magic Lamps 11,692 Posted January 15, 2022 Share Posted January 15, 2022 9/10 strikers fail here bc we just are and never were an all out attacking team. Only absolute elite strikers or those with impenetrable confidence will prevail here. We can't attract players of this calibre anymore so we should just not spend much at this position. Just buy 4 wc wingbacks instead for all i care. In my almost 20 years of watching Chelsea games, I would consider only hasselbaink, drogba, costa and giroud a success here. honorable mentions to Gudjohnsen, Crespo... all except maybe drogba at the time came at moderate prices. mkh, Sir Mikel OBE and Blue Armour 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would add Anelka too. One of the few "non-targetman" strikers to succeed here in recent times. Anelka at the age we got him played with a lot of intelligence. Scoring and assisting. That intelligence is lacking in a lot of our later big money striker signings.

He seems to have believed prior to kick off that 'Pep played into Lukaku's hands' by dropping Dias, when in fact Pep was trolling him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomo 21,751 Posted January 18, 2022 Share Posted January 18, 2022 (edited) Remember when we use to wonder how Hazard could show such little visible frustration when playing with the likes of Willian, Morata and Ramires? Now it all makes sense, he dealt with a lot worse at national level.
