you're talkin shit and bashing ppl without any wisdom about the game? why I AM NOT surprised LoL

listen I said right at the beginning he should go and he is useless and he didn't develop since arriving...

I just said he moreoften has saved us and he doesn't deserve to be treat it like shit... but who'm I talking too?... sorry I forgot for an moment...

fenerbahce anyone, inter anyone, liverpool anyone, ManU (more than once) anyone?

Everton, Newcastle, wigan, etc etc....

But we got some numb nuts out here who when Kalou scores blame it on the opposition but when another player scores they praise the player. It is best you ignore them and their stupid posts

Obviously it's not his fault that they had a backline consisting of no natural centre backs, I never said it was, however it clearly had a big hand in their shoddy defending at the end in which they conceded 2 goals. My posts are embarrassing? Honestly mate try reading your own, they are so childish, I don;t want to sound condescending but this conversation has been like telling a particularly sensitive little child that Santa Clause doesn't exist. lol great, Kalou saved our ass. Not Drogba (the guy who opened the scoring) not Terry's near heroic defending, not Cech's 2 top class saves and not the woodwork twice, it was Kalou, it was all Kalou! Ok here is a question mate, over the course of 5 years, what other attacking impact sub have we had on a regular basis? Is it possible that he is our best impact sub over the last 5 years because he has been our only impact sub over the last 5 years? lol I love how easy you find it to view things in black and white rather than look at the circumstances. Newcastle had no centre backs, Newcastle were playing at home and pressing for a result with 10 minutes to go, it's only in the last quarter of the game that they really opened up at the back, for the rest of the match they had been fairly solid.

Well that's great, Mikel is one of the most accurate passers in the Premier League, lets start a case for him being one of the best midfielders in the league. Not too long ago Denilson also had one of the best passing accuracies in the league too, is he one of the finest midfielders in the world? Any Chelsea fan with 2 eyes and a semi functioning brain will tell you that Kalou isn't good enough. Would I rather Kuyt or Gervinho over him? Every day of the week, no matter what their stats say, their performances (while neither are exactly top class either) they are a calibre above Kalou.

I've found this somewhat ridiculous and can only assume that you don't actually watch matches, rather you simply base your football opinions on opta stats.

Drogba did well to put us in the lead,Cech and Terry did their best to make sure we held onto it, Kalou may or may not have been a waste of space over the years,but the way the manager and the players celebrated Kalou's goal will tell you all about the importance of that piece of contribution from him.

So what were his mistakes in the 4 games apart from the Valencia which was pretty obvious. Did he give a penalty or got sent off or missed a sitter? Newcastle vs Chelsea let me tell you that it was Kalou who scored the leveler and we drew the game because of Alex's fault. I can't believe u blame Kalou for that draw. This is just getting ridiculous. You blame Kalou for the draw inspite f him scoring the leveler

Exactly!! We lost to Wolves..1-0 OG that was scored in the first few mins so god knows how Kalou can get the blame for that

And certain there are 10 other players on the pitch!How can it be ones dudes fault....the pen was yes but wasnt his fault we werent a good few goals up by then..

He may miss chances but he isnt the only one! He isnt the one letting in goals

Don't waste your time arguing with Henrique, he always sticks to his guns. An admirable quality, but it leaves him with egg on his face more often than not.

It seems even you are praising Kalou. You gave a +1 reputation to warnie666 for his last post, but Kalou scored a equaliser that any striker in the world would score and then he missed an open goal minutes later, leaving Carlo in disppair.

So I do believe its better to not argue with me when the subject is prove that Kalou is a good striker for Chelsea.

[The Big Drog 1,110]

Seriously I can't believe that people are actually debating in favour of the idea that Kalou is good enough for Chelsea. Surely you've witnessed his numerous dreadful performances. At Real Madrid they can call on Higuain or Kaka/Ozil (depending on whose starting) to come off the bench and make a difference. At Barcelona they have Alexis Sanchez and Affelay to come on. At Man Utd they have Valencia. At Arsenal they have Gervinho. At Man City they have Adam Johnson. I would rather all of those players over Kalou and those are the standards we should be aiming for.

I'm not praising Kalou - but what I am saying is criticism of him is largely unjustified. He continues to do the business for us - a goal is a goal, whether it is a 25-yard volley á la Zidane, or one of van Nistelrooy's trademark tap-ins. His performances often stink but he does what is required of a striker, and three goals in four starts is quite frankly brilliant.

He misses sitters, but so does Sturridge - but because Sturridge is the new English talisman of the squad, people can forgive him.

Exactly!! And Drogba has missed a load of sitters in the pass.

And Kalou so many times has come on as a sub and won us the game...dont give a crap if its a crap goal or not a goal is a goal whetever shape or form

^ That comparison is void. Sturridge hasn't been here for 5 years making the same mistakes, this is his first season as a starting XI, thus.. the patience is justified.

[BlueLion. 21,491]

How is it void? Torres misses sitters and is lambasted for them, yet because he is supposedly world-class, we can forgive him missing an open goal in one of the biggest games of our season.

My point is that saying Kalou is wasteful does not rub off on me when Torres barely fires at all, Anelka seems disinterested and even Didier can miss from close range. Kalou is a better option at present and his productivity proves it.

We didn't forgive Torres though, most have given up on him.

The one thing we do have a right to criticise is lack of development. Which defines Kalou. Sturridge has come in, in his first season as a main squad player and scored more goals than Drogba, Anelka, Torres & Kalou put together. I will cheer Kalou scoring a goal for Chelsea, but I won't make out like all is forgiven, because again he shows 0% development.

The last 5 years, 21-26 is when a player should be peaking in a development aspect. Like Sturridge is, like Torres did. Torres is declining, and we're all blasting him for it.

[manpe 10,861]

RZA makes too much sense.... but what I can't wrap my head around is that people still consider him a striker. What the fuck is that about?

[zolayes 14,489]
