No be only golden generation!! Best in the EPL when they play with better players from the world. The success, quality and level of competition witnessed in the EPL has not particularly been hinged on English players

timbros:
Ibime you said something earlier, like 2 pages ago, that I completely agree with. You said 'in Conte I trust'.

If this 10 member technical observers agree that Bakayoko is better than all DMs in the whole 32 teams in UCL and worthy of being in the TOTY AND most importantly, Conte is ready to buy him, then he must be doing something good in the pitch.

And his age! At 22, it's more easier for Conte to mould him to a player he wants. I mean look at what Conte did to Moses, Alonso and Luiz.

Don't tell me Conte doesn't know about this his awful first touch and other 'technical deficiencies'. But he is still ready to sanction the deal. Could he (Conte) be seeing something we don't see? Possibly. Might he be planning to use him in another position? Only time will tell.

One thing is very obvious: Conte is a genius. In him, I trust.

Ibime:


Two things I hate most in a central midfielder are present in Bakayokos game, infact, they are his main style of play.

1. One who takes too long to control the ball. While this clown is counting which leg to use to control the ball, he is missing opportunities to play his teammates into promising situation, while opponents are busy marking his teammates while he takes his time. Opponents will also be closing him down while he takes an eternity to get the ball within his control and robbing him of the ball. His style of play gets you "bogged down in midfield".

2. I especially hate a central midfielder that tries to dribble through the midfield to achieve nothing that a quick pass will not achieve 10 times more effectively. Bakayoko dribbles too much through central midfield because he does not trust his passing ability one iota, so he has to literally carry the ball to within 5 yards of his teammate before he is comfortable to release a useless pass that gets the team nowhere as opposition are now back in position while he was busy dribbling aimlessly to hide his decrepit ball control and passing ability.

This is my technical observation on Bakayoko.

In Conte I trust, but I am looking this Bakayoko deal with one eye.

Unlimited22:


And we could have signed Corentin Tolisso.

Ibime:


Leandro Paredes even better. The football will be singing and zipping about quickly if Paredes was in our midfield. Tolisso is preferable to Bakayoko but a robust midfield controller alongside Kante is my primary wish.

raumdeuter:


Dele Alli, Harry Kane, Ryan Bertrand, Kyle Walker, Danny Rose, Gary Cahill, Jamie Vardy
Thats 7 players that have been voted among the EPL best 11 in the past 2 seasons.

If those EPL best players are not enough to impart their quality into the English NY then what will?

dopeJemi:


World's richest club, man united

Chelsea?

Emaprince:

EvilMetahuman:

bigkesh

You dey see Ousmane Dembele just destroy John Stones?

bigkesh:


That boy is everything.... Everything

Dortmund set his price at 90m......For me that's a steal for any club

I am not worried about goals now....This guy uses both feet,the goals will come surely


Chelsea should pay the fucking 90m

Nihilist:
Btw I think last night should serve as a reminder to Conte.

Cahill's race is run, his goose is cooked, his watch has ended.

He's done.

Nihilist:


God Forbid.

I personally have come to this conclusion since the end of last season.
I am waiting to see the miracle Conte will make happen next season.

EvilMetahuman:

yep

at least you will be a a real title (trophy) contender and you wont be scrambling for shitty best loser's europa cup.
i wonder what would have happened if europa cup didn't become a back door to champions league now.


real madrid, most expensive squad. - club world cup, champions league, laliga...(this is elite club)
imanyoo, second most expensive squad in the world - community shield, efl, europa. (this is elite wannabe)
