donjazet:Your remarks seem complimentary but it's actually an insult to my person. The greatest height of enlightenment for a person is recognising that the universe and all that it contains was created by a Supreme Being and that Being is deserving of our worship without associating partners with him in that. Common sense dictates that without even looking at a religious book. To your question of how a person can be well read and still be religious even though I don't consider myself as enlightened or well read the two aren't mutually exclusive, most of the people I look up to are religious people and astute intellectually. The foremost Quranic exegete Ibn Jarir at-Tabari is a scholar of great repute and a Mathematician, Shaykh Rabee bin Hadi al-Madkhali a retired Professor at University of Madeenah and he knows more about Socialists and Marxists than most of our Political Science academics, Gregor Mendel was a theologian and a scientist. I could go on and on but I won't. Also, my relationship with people is not based on ethnicity but on the principle of fairness and justice in accordance with Islamic dictates. 5 Likes |

“Normally what we are strong in, today we didn’t show. We’ve played against them before and we played out from the back and it was not a problem like today. Today I think it was more on us, we have to play more ourselves. Obviously they played good, but we were not at our best. “Today is the first time that the opponent was physically better than us. They ran more than us, they made it very difficult for us. But from ourselves, it was very disappointing. “We have to admit we had a very bad day in the office. We didn’t perform on our usual level and that’s why we were punished and this is what we have to take for the next games, to give more intensity, because to be honest in every aspect they were better than us. “Today we didn’t show our personality that we usually show. Obviously this can happen, but in a game like this it shouldn’t happen.” Antonio Rüdiger 3 Likes |

TT's interview That didn't look like the same Chelsea side we've seen from you over the last nine months. Is that a fair criticism? "Yes, of course. Nobody can deny that. We were excellent but only in the last 20 metres of the match, not in the other 80 metres. Part of performance is to make an opponent underperform and that is what City did today. They were stronger, sharper, had more precision. "I had a feeling we lacked belief and confidence to escape in the situations that it was possible to escape. With every mistake, we lost more confidence. This can happen. In the end, we defended our box and goal very well but we were too deep. "Like I said, the game is so complex, you need a good performance at every level if you want to deserve a result. This was not the case today so we have to accept it and keep on going." Romelu Lukaku had a tough game. Was it a tactical issue or was he just stifled? "I don't think it's necessary to talk about Romelu's struggle today. When we reached Romelu the attack was already half over as there was not enough people, not enough belief and connection. So this was a team problem, not an individual problem." What was the plan today, was the plan always to not have possession today? "The approach was very easy. If you want to play at this level you need everything: possession, long balls, defending, ball wins in transition. As I said, we relied on the last 20 metres and they made us defend deep. We could not escape the pressure and then it was a case of decision making, vision, individual performance today. We were so unprecise and our decision-making was not good enough. We lacked the confidence to switch the ball to the other side. "They are the most intensive league in the division in the opponent half but they are only ten players and there are ways to escape the pressure. We were not at our highest level, easy as that. And then we can't expect a result. "We played with the mentality that we had something to lose but there was nothing to lose here. After the goal there was a bit more energy, a good reaction, a lot of risks that we took and I finally had the feeling and connection that this is the mentality that you need from the start: that you take risks and accept risks. "That was not the case today, they made us underperform and they deserved to win." You improved after the second-half substitutions of Kai Havertz and Ruben Loftus-Cheek, did you have enough attacking players on the pitch at the start of the match? "We can debate endlessly and we will never have the answers. We decided on 5-3-2. I don’t think it is a matter of structure against City, it is a matter of divisions and adaption to the opponent’s spaces, where you can find the spaces. "We tried in a 3-2 and weren’t able to have front connections in the build-up. We are in this together. We win together and I will ask the question also to myself. Was it the right shape? But I don’t think the shape is decisive to the result." Source: https://www.football.london/chelsea-fc/news/thomas-tuchel-chelsea-havertz-lukaku-21676730 2 Likes |

![]() When people talk, they are the first to be confrontational insisting that others should shut up Lukaku is refined but he has never been an elite level footballer, he complains that nobody rates him but it's because on the big stage, he never rises to the occasion, we can't structure the team to suit him, he should stay up top and leave the right channels for havertz, this experiment of playing havertz on the left has to end, if he had started that game yesterday in 343 the outcome would have been different, city fans celebrated when they saw him on the bench Tuchel should either revamp his tactics now and play attacking football or he maintains his pragmatic approach, if the latter is his choice, his days as Chelsea coach are numbered 4 Likes

Amoto94:That's how you know people who use eyes to watch ball and people who watch with agenda. As for left wing back, I thought tuchel would use chiwell if we play high pressing side like Liverpool or mancity and Alonso against low block side. That arrangement worked a bit for him last season. Alonso is not consistently reliable like the guys on the right wing. Let's hope mount and James come back quickly sha. 3 Likes |

Havertz10: The shut up still dey pain you. You talk too much. After the formation backfired that is when you come here to tell us that you know it is rubbish. Why didn't you say it before the game? Why didn't you criticise the formation the moment Kante came in for Mount against Spurs? I'm sure you were all smiles when Mount went off and the goals stated coming. If we had won City with Mount out of the lineup, we all know what the story will be. If Havertz have Mount's workrate, Tuchel would have played 343 with Havertz Lukaku Werner up front. That's just the plain truth. Mount serves as the 5th man in midfield when we are defending, and the 3rd man in attack when we are attacking. Havertz can't do that reason why Tuchel went for 352 formation. Someone said Lukaku dragging have not started because he has been scoring. We can see the dragging already building up. Imagine the bolded! We can't structure the team to suit Lukaku BUT we should build the team around Havertz... Once again, shut up! 14 Likes 2 Shares |

User09: Today is sunday,just go to church and pray for forgiveness. Like I said yesterday, Werner is a confused footballer,he does not understand his role in the side. He got the ball on couple of times with plenty of space to run ahead and ease the pressure in the midfield but the idiot will rather pause waiting for his teammates to pass to and run without the ball. 1 Like |

timbros: What you said doesn't matter. Even if Jorginho was covering Rudiger, his lack of strength let him down. There is no way Jesus gets that ball against a stronger player and backs off his man enough to turn and shoot. Jesus used his body to gain control of that ball, and Jorginho was too weak in allowing Jesus get the ball and even spin and shot. |
