Lol the rewritting of history because he's having a purple patch 5 year's on is hilarious.

He scored 1 goal in his first 32 PL games and that came on (i think) game 30.

Precisely.

He was out of his depth in the PL on his previous loans and more than likely below average until 2017 when he made a good progression in the Championship but aye, people will then say Mourinho wanted Falcao instead of giving him a chance to make out hes made a mistake. Please. 33 PL appearances. 7 goals. Take out his 6 goals for Leeds in 6 games. 1 goal in 27 games. Just typical though people will jump on the bandwagon and be like I told you so despite the fact, he hasn’t particularly achieved anything of exceptional level like Salah and KdB have who are the main examples. 

Be interesting to think what Mourinho would say about that comment 🤣

Also that thread on Twitter is ridiculous. Says he called him Chelsea’s Harry Kane. Kane didnt burst on the scene to 2013-14 on a regular basis for Spurs, we signed Bamford in 2012 and unlike Kane, Bamford didnt make an impression at PL level in various loan spells where as Kane did when he got a chance in the PL. Bamford had various loans before landing at Leeds. He was at Boro permanently prior to Leeds also. Then he bangs on about him turning down Harvard to sign for Chelsea and only Chelsea as if the boy wasn’t already playing planning on being a pro footballer having already made appearances for Nottingham Forrest as well as already having already been privately educated as well (meant to better than most in the UK get in public schools). 

I really hope that guy isnt an aspiring journalist or whatever because he is so full of shit its unbelievable. Maybe should just make a Twitter to send him it 🤣 seems like anything to try and paint the club in a bad light.

And the most hilarious thing of it all is they're probably the same people who refuse to show the slightest bit of patience to Mount, Tammy and even Reece all of whom are miles more proven at this level now let alone compared to Bamford circa 2015.

Aye, thats it. I mean if it takes someone 8 years after signing to basically now say that he is good enough to be Chelsea’s 3rd choice then that sums him up and why he isn’t at the club. Dont remember hearing about Bamford in the Championship from these guys either in his last 2 seasons with Leeds.

I will admit I have been critical of Mount, Tammy and Reece to various different levels last season but Mason and Tammy had the unfortunate ‘luxury’ of being overplayed through a poor patch when Frank had others he could have utilised. Which would have taken them out of the firing line. And was poor on Franks behalf If I am honest as young players do need protected/taken out if they aren’t doing well.

Not to the level of where some guys are now, which is unfair and its to the point where I havent been surprised because I see Jorginho get it, Willian last season despite being one of our best players also (probably 3rd best attacking player and statistically best season in a Chelsea shirt), countleas times Cahill getting shot down and questioned as captain, Azpi also, before them Ivanovic, Mikel and others also from mainly our own lot (a big percentage on here) and then you had the whole Jorginho-Kante thing in the media with Sarri. Different as they aren't youngsters but its typical. Just don’t understand it sometimes.

Its typical though, I get we all have opinions and so do pundits journalists etc but English media are really bad at shooting down their own.

his not enough money comment came from Shitty not buying Koulibaly

which makes no sense as they dropped huge cash on Dias and Ake combined

I would like a taste of what Pep is smoking after dumping huge cash on Ake and Dias though I dont rate either of them yet moaning...

he always was a chequebook manager, but lately he is a whingey bish

I lost a lot of respect for him when he went over the top in defending the cunts of cunts that own Shitty, Mansour and the twats

he flat out lied so much about what happened

I just dont like Mancs, anyway, lolol

so always going to hate Manure and shitty

only city with bigger prongers than Manchester is Liverpool

I actually get on quite well with people from all over England (even brummies and then far northern bastards, some of my best mates are Geordies, lolol), but mancunians and scousers can (overall) just sod the fuck off

Can you maybe link an article with the quote he said about shitty not spending enough? Or just post the quote?
I can't find it. Thanks

let me try and find it, it was before they bought Dias, he was moaning about the loss of revenue from COVID blocking them in the market

in a live interview. and perhaps he was just playing the 'poor little me' game as he probably knew they were in negotiations for Dias (which I, for one, did not know when I saw it)
