Chelsea Transfers

[NikkiCFC 7,955]

My examples are almost 50% of games under Thomas. If you remember these games or watch them again you will see the struggles.

I never said a bad word about him, sacking Lamps was such a relieve and he improved us massively from day one plus delivered biggest trophy. Big fan of him.

But we need to point out at struggles, it was not ideal. With Ben and Reece as wing backs and MM as one of the 3 attackers we had pragmatic approach with 9 players you dont expect to score.

Tactics was to nick 1:0 wins with amazing defense which we did successfully many times. This is something I would like him to change next season and to put at least 4 offensive players because I dont think it can work in long run.

Statistics disagree with you and your incredibly  selective examples. 

No there is evidence to back that up. I can’t imagine watching Chelsea on a regular basis thinking we create a lot of chances. And if you look at the personal out there, where are they coming from. The 5 defenders? 2 defensive midfielders?our non creative attackers?

I will call it a reliable as we all know how much Roman is passionate about Chelsea.  130 Mil + 20 Mil is almost trending everywhere. Dortmund has mentioned already

which means they are expecting and will be accepted.

If that's the case then why are people banging on about Haaland being the answer to all our prayers instead of a creative midfielder/wingback?

[NikkiCFC 7,955]

This is good question and next season will tell if we bring him. But TT also wanted Hakimi.

In games I mentioned above I dont think he would help us that much. Because:

My big hope is Kai playing behind Haaland and delivering in terms of creativity. Ziyech should also be much better. Ben and Reece can be useful if Haaland is good with head which I dont know.

If Haaland isn’t world class idk who is. Lewandowski is often considered the best #9 in the world currently and he rarely “creates something out of nothing.” Almost 100% of his 40 goals this past season were inside the box and many of them were poaching on the end of a teammates good play.

Haaland is much more dangerous outside of the box than Lewa is. He’s not yet Harry Kane’s level when it comes to creating  for others but he’s not just a traditional target man. He’s certainly world class, though.

Does that include an additional loan? Ie. Roman loan > Chelsea > agents.

We already owe Roman a huge amount don’t we?

I have no idea the formation we play with Kai and Haaland on the pitch. Considering I always felt Hudson O was always more effective on the left wing, where Timo occupies.

Since we continue with this formation most expected is this:

         Haaland 

  Mount      Havertz 

Another option: 

 Werner Haaland 

      Havertz 

My favourite:

      Haaland 

Pulisic   Havertz

We should not be so invested in this. Haaland is not moving this summer.

If you wanna talk about goals inside the box and all, then only ONE of Haaland's Bundesliga goals have come from outside the box and even that took a slight deflection. Plus almost all his goals have come on the end of a teammate's good play...

And remember all the talk of Werner's Bundesliga goals happened mostly because of the amount of space he got etc? Yeah, just look at the space that Haaland also got for his goals. Maybe you could argue that Haaland is more clinical than Werner but then again, both have scored similar amount of goals and missed similar amount of big chances in the Bundesliga.
