Victor Moses

[Gilvorak 3,734]

Let's be honest. He's an utter shit winger and anyone pretending different clearly doesn't understand the game but he's legit borderline World Class at RWB. I'm still in awe at how well he's playing.

[LAM09 7,043]

He has been immense early on this season. Puts a shift in on both sides of the field, which is a nice change on the right. May this form continue and thank Egypt; he ain't going in Jan.

Great young English talent.

Correct me if Im wrong, but I think Moses is also an English citizen.

Not sure if that was an "assist", if you now what I mean.

Anyway, the new circle jerk in Talk Chelsea is praise Moses for doing small things. A very limited player with great tactical discipline. No more than that.  Good Things is soon or late people see the light. Years ago Matic and Cahill were called world class players, and we had the best back 4 of the world in Azp, Cahill, Terry and Ivanovic. 

Are you unable to enjoy the moment? Our player is playing surprisingly well when nobody expected him to, and is contributing massively to the success of a new system that has seen us win 4 on the trot without conceding. Why so spiteful, Henrique? Why marginalize his impact and evident quality with petty posts like this? "It's a good thing we'll soon see the light".. why is it a good thing? You basically want Moses to drop in form and play shit thus compromising the team just so you can be right and laugh at us? Are you a supporter or what? I also doubt he would have scored those goals he has if he barely went forward like you said. How you can say that is beyond me, he's a pest on both ends and could/should have scored more.

No, he wont drop in form. People will just realize the limitations of his game. Its a natural process.

Everybody has limitations without exception and I don't see people being blind to Moses's either. People realize he's not good enough as a winger for example. It's not like we are going over the top with praise, everybody is just pleasantly surprised that he's performing above expectations in a position where he hasn't played before. A nice change from last season when we couldn't say that anybody was playing well, we could do without the forced negativity when we are doing so well after a long long time is all I'm saying.

[Special Juan 28,107]

Always produced in pre-season, always looked like he could offer something. Taking his chance and showing he cannot be dropped....fabulous performance.

[Thendo 1,088]

Moses and Nat geting their chances with the first team this season should be the best motivation possible for all those millions out on loan.

And talk about taking your chances, been superb in that wingback role!

Moses came to Britain as an asylum seeker

Henrique, I'm interested in knowing what you think makes him such a "limited player" at wing back. Please elaborate.

True he has limitations. But he has done great. 

One good thing about this is that if we do plan on getting an upgrade then we have raised cash already. How is that? Well if we upgrade Moses we can sell now Moses for a much higher price then a year before.

Quote

Football has become a game predicated on transfers. Whatever the problem, the solution is almost always to sign a player or two. Struggling managers always just need another window or two to turn things around. Buying and selling players, the eternal swirl of trade, is such a dominant mode of thought, has so coloured the discourse, that the notion that a manager might actually look to improve a player, something that used to be an absolute basic of the job, has come to seem strangely old-fashioned.

But every now and again a player pops up who has been largely forgotten about who, it turns out, is just the answer to a club’s problem. It happened the season before last when Arsene Wenger suddenly rediscovered Francis Coquelin and it’s happening this season with Victor Moses.

Very true. Especially like the mention of Coquelin, that came out of nowhere as well. I would love for Moses to be the real deal. The team just need to prove this system is to stay.

[Pizy 18,858]

Must admit, I thought after yet another very impressive preseason for Victor he'd fade back into obscurity. Absolutely delighted that we finally have a manager who actually tells the truth when he said he plays those who earn their place rather than going solely on names. Moses has kept his head down and become indespensible now in our first XI. Huge credit to him.

You can also tell he isn't letting his success get to his head and is just so glad to be playing. Humble and hungry.

Not only he has English citizenship but he represented England 30 times as in the U16-21 teams.

This is not being honest, this is just a radical opinion.

 I don't think he is a shit winger at all.. In his first season at Chelsea he spent most of the time sitting on the bench while Oscar, Mata and Hazard played. Still, he managed to score 10 goals and many times he seemed like our most dangerous man. When Mourinho arrived we sent him out on loan 3 times to 3 different teams, which is just cruel(see Chalobah).. At Stoke and at West Ham he had some outstanding performances, but Premier League teams just don't build on loan players. 

 

Of course he is not a player like Hazard, but even if a winger, he'd be a useful squad member at any English team.
