chelsea_4_eva 1,182 Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 I know Havertz isn't popular, but for me there are quite a few that I would get rid before him. Mhsc, robsblubot and NikkiCFC 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bren 41 Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 Just now, robsblubot said: For some reason we, as well as the press, have been nice to Kepa. I'm convinced he's one of the worst goalies I've seen play at a top club. He's Karius level and all he needs is the opportunity to do what Karius did. It's no accident that we had Mendy (in excellent form) during our CL run. There is no way to do that with Kepa on goal. Absolutely. I think it's his price tag. It's the old "if he cost that much, he must be good". I reckon if he was called Keith Atkinson bought for £5m from Bradford, it would be a different story. The speed with which people started to crap on Mendy as well is depressing. Yes he was in bad form and he may indeed not be suitable long term, but he played a massive part in that CL. robsblubot 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OneMoSalah 8,886 Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 Just now, nyikolajevics said: On the other hand, Klopp was just as clueless at Liverpool when he had a serious injury wave two years ago, even though he had been 4-5 years in charge by the time. This in unbelievable hard situation to manage. At this point, no point to change manager. Read this sentence back. Particularly the first word. Klopp. Lets be honest, Potter will never be on that level. Not in a million years. So lets end this Pep and Klopp needed time/comparisons/whatever bullshit. I am still speechless Potter even tried to say that himself. Klopp and Pep have proven track records at big clubs, they can get away with that. Because people know what to expect from them and their teams. This was the same nonsense that was spouted when Frank was here - those 2 will never ever ever be on JK & PG’s level as managers and will never achieve what they done so get that shite out of your head. There is no amount of time in the world where Potter becomes good in this job for this club. Barring 3 or 4 games after his appointment, we have nosedived. Say what you want but questions have to start with the management. The players weren't this bad with Tuchel so what does that tell you?

Mhsc 1,097 Posted January 12, 2023 Share Posted January 12, 2023 Surely he's got to get sacked now. I honestly think in the long run he could work out but seriously, there has to be a point at which a manager is sacked for bad results and we must be beyond it... That said, some of these players are not playing at a basic professional standard, and that is not acceptable no matter the manager. Avram Grant was a terrible manager but the players still showed up and fucking delivered. We need to sell some players immediately to anyone who will take them.

Would you be surprised if some of the injured players become available a few days after the sacking? Seen that one before too... but I'm older than most here 😉 Edited January 12, 2023 by robsblubot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't believe anyone thought he is top-tier GK, I guess he may be going back towards his actual level, but can't shit on him for doing wonders when time came.

I'm not saying I agree with that, but Imo it's the way the game has gone with millionaire players who can pick and choose where they play and who they play for.
