But the community shield isn't recognized as a major title - at least not anymore. And the Super Cup is.
I am just seeing this.

so chelsea didnt sell barkley, wages excuse, cant we do a wage sharing transfer deal with any club for him? what of jorginho why couldn't we sell him even loan him out. so cus of jorginho we couldnt buy tchoumeni. in summer more clubs will compete for him. what of lukaku didn't psg come for a 70m deal or so? so we refused them and kept him. and allowed juventus get vlahovic easily. other clubs got at least one major signing, we just lost all our targets. so na so marina take win best best chairman awards ehn? chelsea no serious!!!

James is more of a balanced player than Trent.

Unless you’re abnormal, you can argue it.

Even Wan Bisaka is more defensive than Trent.

Only an abnormal coach will choose James ahead of Trent.

I hope the fat L wicked Salah slapped you with isn't messing with your head.

Nothing like that boss. The same James that some people were referring to as the best RB in the league at some point before his injury?

They are mates, but Trent is at the top of the game.

The same reason I’ll choose Alaba over Marcelo is the same reason I’ll choose James over Trent.

I don’t like defensive liabilities.

Ba a complete package. Be balanced.

James and Alaba are the best in their position right now in the world.

Only Sandro and Robertson comes closer.

Trent is hardly a defensive liability. He's not the strongest defensively but i don't think he's bad either. James is the more balanced full back but what Trent offers on the ball is so much more. TAA is the best RB in the world and James is not even number 2.

BTW, you might need to update your ball knowledge. Alaba plays as a CB these days and Sandro, while still decent isn't a top 3 full back any more. And does the name Alphonso Davies ring a bell?

James has never proven his speed endurance / stamina in a back four.

Guy used to gas out sprinting back from attacking positions. Not surprising given his body size. Large muscles tire quicker.

For now, no one can say definitively he is better than this or that until his stamina is tested in a back 4. His recovery runs were not great in comparison to Trent. A wingback can sometimes catch their breath after bombing forward while the RCB come across to cover. A fullback hardly has such luxury.

What’s Alaba main position?

Azip and Kimmich are very versatile, but they have main natural position.

So again I ask, what’s Alaba main position?

Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by donstan18: 5:55pm On Feb 02, 2022
Hakimi: 25 appearances... 6G/A

James: 23 appearances.... 11G/A

One dey play with Neymar, Mbappe and
Messi in a League they are dominating.

One dey play with Fraudvertz, Odoi and Lukaku in a League they aren’t dominating.

But somehow, Hakimi is better.

Alaba is the most versatile player in the world so i can understand your confusion. He started out as a LB but he rarely plays there these days. I think he has even played more as a CM than even LB in recent times.

He has played consistently as a CB for over 2 years, far more than any other position. The last time Alaba played as a LB on a regular basis was in October 2019. Even when Davies got injured for 3 months, he remained at CB. He has moved to Real Madrid now and he is still starting as a CB. What does that tell you?

I'm not a fan of rating full backs on traditional attacking metrics alone but let me humor you. Hakimi plays in a back 4 at PSG while James plays as a RWB so it's only logical that he would have more goal contributions. Morever, Hakimi is just in his first season at PSG and is yet to fully hit his strides.
Why not bring out Hakimi's numbers as a wingback for Dortmund and Inter Milan and let's compare.

You can also bring the amazing stats Neymar and Messi have been dropping in the Ligue One this season so we can see how they have been helping Hakimi pad stats.

Trent is at the top of the game, but James is close by. I think we can best put it that way

Cancelo and Hakimi are also up there.

To be frank, this is something that lingers at the back of my mind.

It'll be interesting to see if TT continues with the 4-1-4-1 formation, even when James returns.

Regardless of any formation, fact remains that James has been better than Hakimi this season.

I see how you conveniently left out the main Koko for midfielders which is goals and assists. grin grin
Not to talk of trophies won. grin grin

Lampard goals and assists = 483
Gerald goals and assists = 364

Lampard was not Gerard's mate on an individual level. The greatest midfielder the EPL has ever seen.

Yeah.....

Before u claim someone is better than the other,u must have come up with some statistic and it should be general.

I will agree with you only if same is said about joginho.


I rate Gerald as well as Lampard but I tip Lamps slightly ahead due to his very important goals and assists.

One of their best PL display
