If u watched that game and didnt think Jorginho was one of the best players; Then I dont know what to tell you.

Parroting the usual rubbish against him is just dumb at this point. None of the criticism can stick now.

He only does half turns on rare occasions; He cant give long balls and only gives 5 yard passes backwards

Watch the game unbiased and try and give original opinions next time

What of players overrunning him with reckless abandon which was the observation today

that's one of his lapses...
maybe that's why he is not the best in that position cos he gets over run most times.
but he didn't have a terrible game today.

It wasn't an easy one but thank God we won.
I hope Lukaku powers on from here. I want to laugh at some people here. I believe in him.

Jorginho always silences his haters. cheesy
No matter what he does, he must be criticized. But he doesn't give a flying fuck_ grin He just quietly does his thing. Now the teams top scorer in back to back seasons.

Anybody who has called for tuchels sack is simply not right in the head. Please don't give them oxygen.
Still in 5 competitions and only 3 losses from 28. Wonderful state of things.

Once you get overrun, you have no business being in DM. That is the definition of having a terrible game for a DM

We have concerns for injured players. We let Callum Hudson-Odoi play 90 minutes after Covid. Thiago Silva got injured. N'Golo Kante is injured. Mateo Kovacic is playing after injury and Covid without any preparation and training. We’re just filling holes where we can fill them. We play teams without international duties. Five changes were invented because of Covid. Now we're in the middle of Covid and some teams are having games postponed and others aren't. Three changes is a big disadvantage.

Quite laughable how a functional brain will be badmouthing a coach in this obvious dilemma?

you are very correct... I guess we need a proper DM.

but, did you notice the expression in the faces of Chelsea's player.. during the game when he got injured...
I saw terrified faces. like who will play his position in his absence.
presently in that squad nobody can play that position better that Jorginho.. kante and kovacic will not do the job he is doing.

yea.... maybe that's why we keep using 3 at the back.. if not, jorginho would have been smoked out..
I am not saying he is a bad player but unfortunately he is not what Chelsea need to become a football club that molest other teams. .
believe me we have so many average players in that team. players with poor decision making
with the right environment james will become the best in the world in the position he plays.
tuchel is working magic using some of these players

Relax man, unlike Ngolo Kante, I don't see anything special Jorginho brings to the team.

We are so lucky to have Tuchel.

Less than a year in charge, he has won UCL as well as Super Cup and competing for the League title.

Additionally, he comfortably qualified from this season UCL group stage.

Currently he is vying for 5 trophies this season;

We know how long it took Jurgen Klopp before he lifted a silverware and till today UCL has eluded Pep Guardiola.

Appreciate your gaffer who is on the verge of becoming the best so far for Chelsea.

Hate Jorginho for what he lack as a dm, we’ll understand, we’ll even join you to criticize him.

But you see that penalty? You see his ability to convert penalties? You dare not talk down on him in that aspect.

Gbam. Senior Man Kelz is the most technically gifted and most talented of our attackers IMO. Just can't lay a finger on what his exact problem is.

Focus, Drive, passion maybe? In as much as those words have been used to mock players - case in point Passion Pount - they've indeed vital.

They're questions as to whether he can function as the main striker though. He and Osimhen seem a dream combo - on paper at least.

I don't know for sure, but I don't think Kante is injured. I feel TT is still managing his - and Kovacic's - minutes.


I hope Silva's issue is minor, but thankfully we have Chris and Chalobah back.

Modified: Kante is truly injured. Seems to be the same Knee injury. Just now hearing TT's post match interview.

Kelechi is not a striker he's a 10 and False9 playing him in as a striker will limit his efficiency and effectiveness. Allow him to roam freely across the frontline and he will deliver. He is intelligent no doubt but expecting him to be a proper 9 is not ideal for his characteristics

Only idiots that lack football knowledge criticised a Lukaku that was getting back to form from injury.

I was highly disappointed in Hensben for joining the Leprous 5 in condemning him.
Not that he is not a good scorer but I am not a fan of his type of striker.

I disagree. He's as good a 9 as any. Many of the runs and actions he made yesterday were no9 actions. Infact, he played 9.

When a player has touch and finesse, just because he has the skill to play 10 and is used there doesn't invalidate him as a 9. His purple patch last season was when Vardy was injured and he played 9. Kelz is just like Robin Van Persie who due to his class was played in other positions until later in career when he killed it in no9 position. Kelz played 9 at City and was banging.

There is a way a striker slows time down in the box that Kelz has which I don't see in many strikers these days since Van Persie retired

You know ball. People think the job of every centre forward is to stay in the box and bully the defenders, forgetting that football is now a modern game. A player like Iheanacho would be a jewel for any team as long as he's given enough time and freedom on the pitch of play.

No football team with ambition will ever think of using kelz as a top 9.. though he has the movement, the techniques and ideas.. but he won't function well as a lone striker..
both kelz and jorginho are only good and it not bad.
if he is that Good as a lone 9. I believe guardiola would have seen the potential and keep him..
At Leicester, they don't trust him to be consistent with his performance as a lone striker
He should be paired with a striker that has presence in the opposition defence.
No.. kelz is not good enough to become Nigeria's Main striker. he lacks DRIVE
