Special Juan 28,640 Posted August 22, 2024 Share Posted August 22, 2024 The biggest two finger salute to Sterling there could be giving him the 7 shirt Sterling and his camp really dropped a massive fatty issuing that statement when they did.

Vesper 30,890 Posted October 13, 2024 Share Posted October 13, 2024 (edited) Chelsea’s Pedro Neto led the way in two impressive stats during Portugal’s victory over Poland https://www.thechelseachronicle.com/news/chelseas-pedro-neto-led-the-way-in-two-impressive-stats-during-portugals-victory-over-poland/ Chelsea had a couple of representatives in Portugal’s 3-1 win against Poland on Saturday. Pedro Neto and Renato Veiga both started the Nations League match, with the latter making his debut for Portugal. Neto is still finding his feet at Chelsea, playing deputy to Noni Madueke at this moment in time. However, the winger had a good game for his country last night. When club football returns, Neto will be hoping for more opportunities under Enzo Maresca. Pedro Neto’s performance against Poland Neto could not get his name on the scoresheet in Portugal’s victory over Poland, but he still managed to put in a positive performance. According to Squawka, the 24-year-old completed 100% of his four take-ons and won more duels (seven) than any other player on the pitch. It is an encouraging sign for Maresca, though you would expect the Chelsea manager to stick with Madueke when the Blues travel to Anfield to take on Liverpool after the international break. Madueke has started all but one of Chelsea’s seven Premier League games this season, scoring last time out against Nottingham Forest. Madueke also registered 20 touches in Forest’s penalty area that day, showing how much of a threat he was in the 1-1 draw. Pedro Neto’s stats Following his appearance against Poland, Neto now has 13 caps and one goal for Portugal. He will be hoping to add to his one goal when his country take on Scotland on Tuesday in their next Nations League match. For Chelsea, Neto has made 10 appearances and scored two goals so far, with his second strike coming against Gent in the Conference League earlier this month. Chelsea fans were impressed with Neto’s display in the 4-2 win against Gent, but it was not enough for him to keep his place in the team for the draw with Forest afterwards.

Because I doubt anyone will offer that, I'm happy with him as I always said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vesper 30,890 Posted January 8 Share Posted January 8 Pedro Neto is a perfect wingback Such a frustrating player to watch https://siphillipstalkschelsea.substack.com/p/pedro-neto-is-a-perfect-wingback My unpopular opinion maybe? I believe that Pedro Neto would be a VERY good wingback. I was pleased when we signed Neto. I’ve always liked him for his traits, attitude, intensity, and the way he never gives up. But at Chelsea, he’s been very frustrating. I don’t think he’s a top winger, but I do think he’s a very useful player and good to have. Neto as a winger is very frustrating because he will do something very good, get near the box, and then waste the chance himself by either hitting a wild shot, making the wrong pass, hitting it right into a defender, or over-hitting a cross. Of course he is also capable of scoring or creating something from nothing, but largely, he just breaks down our own attacks by himself sometimes. He’s never going to be a top level winger. But I DO think he can be a top level wingback. For me, he looks like he would be a class left wingback. He has the energy to get up and down, the pace for counters and retreating. He is decent defensively, and is a strong and physical player, he can run with the ball, and he can contribute both in defence and attack. I guess with Liam Rosenior coming in and his adaptation on using a back three at times, perhaps there is going to be more moments where Neto actually might get deployed as a wingback? I honestly think it would be a very smart move to develop Neto as a wingback rather than a winger. For me, the wingers we have are very weak right now and it’s an area we badly need to improve after spending £100m on it in the summer. Sigh.

I get the frustration but ballboys always give the home side the advantage. Its not quite as bad as that gimpy 15 year old ball boy at Swansea with Hazard right enough. Rolling about like he’d been shot but again, was wrong to try engage. 8 minutes ago, Special Juan said: Neto is a bit of a brain fart isn't he? Saying that, I would have chinned the ball boy the little wet wipe For a more experienced player, daft. Sums up the squads mentality and discipline though. Rather than get angry with each other lash out at ball boys…. yet theres no discipline issue apparently 🙄😂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Special Juan 28,640 Posted 1 hour ago Share Posted 1 hour ago Neto is close to be sent packing if you ask me, there is no smoke without fire about the noises about him leaving, plus his now continued discipline issues and he will still command good money.
