The penalty miss was the icing in the cake. Did you not see the sitter he missed?

 

 

 

Last I checked, Michy won the league for Conte.

 

I already made the point as to why he hasn't been given a chance. It's easy to discard someone that you didn't buy/no a fan favourite due to little to no backlash as a result.

 

It doesn't mean it's the right decision.

Did you see his hold up play? His link up play? When he was winning duels against vvd. 

Why should michy get in the team? On merit? Given how they performed last season and the varied success of their loan spells, there is only one winner.

I want my striker to score goals, simple.

Once again, I've stated Michy's case a host of times - he has the best goal ratio amongst the strikers we have, it ain't rocket science. Players ought to be selected on "merit" btw, so please drop the youth nonsense.

I'll be hearing the same thing in early May at this rate.

Lol. So goal ratio= merit? What nonsense. 

It's not about youth. It's about overall game play. Which michy's is the worst.

Read above. Seems like goals are the least of a striker's concern.

In that case, a piece of wood would hold up the ball nicely. [emoji58]

Soooo with Abraham we got a slightly better Morata?

We. Want. Goals. That is the point of a striker. A striker is supposed to bang in goals. Look at Mane, Aubameyang, Kane etc. We need someone like these.

And 2 games make him a dud?

What was Dd's goal numbers in the first 2 games? Or even seasons. 

Lol. Seriously can't believe some of the opinions on here. Hopeless.

Lol. Sure. Because 2 games can define everything. Brilliant. 😂

Did you watch preseason at all?

My thoughts aren't based on "2 games" but 7. One goal from open play in that time is where my feelings stem from.

Michy has a goal every 90min in Chelsea shirt. Which means goal per game. At this point if he scores every game I don't care if he is the worst player on the pitch.

I didn't say he is a dud. What I'm saying is that I don't want a striker who has better link up play, blahblahblah...and doesn't score goals.

I know Abraham scored bucket loads last season, but that's in the Championship. And even games last season where there's pressure, he doesn't seem to do well. Look at Villa's playoff games.

Ok, he's very young and inexperienced fair enough. But because of this, he can't be our main striker right now. He's not ready.

So who? False nine?

Giroud? The whole point of highly Dynamic, high pressing team goes out of the window. Also how many PL goals did giroud score last season?

Michy? Decent goal scorer, other than that? Most of our play and chances have looked good because each of the player can play under pressure. Can't say that about michy. Just like yesterday, we would end up losing the ball 9/10 times and make our midfield push back. 

Compared to them we have Tammy that checks the link up and hold up play boxes. As far as his finishing goes, anyone with 25+ goals can't be a shabby goal scorer. Like I have been saying, judge him when we have a decent sample size. But for this season, he is our best option and bet. If Tammy has a break through season, we have a good first option for a long term future. 

As far as michy is concerned, fans wanting him really need a reality check. Conte had a fall out with Costa, and instead of using michy, chose morata and giroud. Sarri chose morata/higuain and giroud. Lamps has chosen Tammy and giroud. I see a very simple trend here. Those who can't see what we will be losing with michy in the team, it's hard to explain. But all I can say is it takes more than 2 goalless games against United and pool to knock down a striker.

Is pining for the strikers that aren't playing going to be the theme all season? 

Michy is crap and part of me wants him to play asap just to remind people of that.

Good optimism just don't get to attached to him. Enjoy the next 9 months.

Thank you. Atleast I will be watching the next 9 months cheering on one of the players rather than hoping he fails, which seems to be the case for most here.

Off the bench or as third choice, possibly.

I was asking you a question. Michy is the better CF with actual goals at the top level, yet is sitting behind him. Why not give him "time" to prove his worth?

People say stuff too soon all the time.

The case with Emerson is the most evident one 

People shat on him after few bad games but hbe improved massively.

Yeah I think Michy should get his chances too. Its not like we have superb strikers in our team.

4 of his last 6 manager's decided he ain't worth the bother and even Dortmund decided against signing him permanently, there's only so many times the it's not him it's them card can be played.
