Jodera:You too sef dey fall hands, how can you say Saka is above average? Saka is a world-class player, the only winger that I rated ahead of him for now, is Vinici Junior. |

Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by Jodera: 4:10pm On Jul 04, 2023 |
MorataFC:Lol... I still feel he's a top player but not World class yet but he's nearing that level. Even Vini, I still don't rate him as World class He(they) obviously needs that numbers consistently to reach that World class levels |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by pkasso(m): 4:41pm On Jul 04, 2023 |
MorataFC:Make una dey calm down. Saka never reach WC levels. Even Vinicius sef. Consistency + multiple exceptional performances at the highest level is what makes you WC. IMO, once you are world-class, you will always be world-class. Your form and performances may diminish but that tag is permanent. It's a recognition of what you've done or achieved. By the way, is Sterling world-class? E get why I dey ask |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by Jodera: 5:01pm On Jul 04, 2023 |
pkasso:Lol... True words. World class bar is high and Obvious. It shouldn't be reduced to something ordinary where any good player can attain. As for the bolded, definitely No!! Any player who have uncertainty over him on whether he's a good player or not is certainly isn't world class. In fact, Sterling was more heralded in Liverpool than Man City even though he posted more numbers in the latter. Ironic, Yeah, but that should tell you all you need to know |

pkasso:Vini is not world class But kimmich is world class for winning Bayernliga year in and year out. Well done |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by Vischy: 5:15pm On Jul 04, 2023 |
Capaldi: World class = Good stats/performance + consistency. That's why Raheem Sterling is not world class despite his G/A numbers in Mancity. Consistency at the highest level is all that matters. |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by Vischy: 5:19pm On Jul 04, 2023 |
pkasso: Exactly, Vinicius and SAKA are still top level players. World class comes with time and consistency. |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by Capaldi: 5:24pm On Jul 04, 2023 |
Vischy:We are talking about Vinicius. There's no clear and universal agreed definition of a world class player. Sterling at Man City had world class numbers with only Salah amongst wingers scoring more if that's not consistency at the highest level then tell me what is. Vini and sterling at Man city are not world class but Kimmich is world class for winning Bayernliga year in and year out. |

Jodera:Sterling's case is an interesting one because he has the numbers and trophies to back up that claim. Years from now, you go see kids dey argue say Sterling na one of the GOATS of his generation based on his stats. Na us wey watch am go dey tell dem say the guy no great like that. Sterling is just a good player who was part of a great team. He has never and will never be the main man on any top team. Na why I dey laugh when Chelsea sign am. This guy no fit drag teams to titles. |

Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by Realtord43: 6:01pm On Jul 04, 2023 |
andrewbaba44:Yea, same as dembele to barca |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by Jodera: 6:14pm On Jul 04, 2023 |
pkasso:Football is now internet-first and Statistics before actually judging a player so I won't be surprised if 10yrs from now, Sterling would be termed Goat. Plus he's British, so they might even overhype him ontop. That's why it's doing me somehow if a good player is talked down or not really acknowledged because of he doesn't have that statistics to back him up. There's big difference between watching someone live and just going to Wikipedia to look at stats in order to judge a player. Na one of the reasons I tackle Real.tord ystdy sha And as for the bolded, it's true. He's always part of a main team and can never be a main man. And it's very very difficult to be world class if you're not a main man (at least in your department) |

People tend to abuse the word WORLD CLASS alots using just two to three good seasons of a player to rate him to be world class is a big error. Consistency is longetivity, if a player cant stay long to give top performance, he wil neva be world class. players like courtiho, ronato sanchez, alexis sanchez are guys you think wil stay afloat with the form, but look how short the dipped. vini saka sterling kimmich still average! |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by Realtord43: 6:24pm On Jul 04, 2023 |
Jodera:if saka is not average then Nik pepe is a top player when he was playing in france, b4 arsenal sign him |

Capaldi:Wetin Vinicius do wey Gnabry never do before? Do you see Bayern fans proclaiming Gnabry as WC? Or is it because Vini is the rave of the moment. Sterling's numbers don't count for muchy because he doesn't pass the eye test. His stats is partly due to the tactical brilliance of Pep, not because of some exceptional talent he has. He has never been THE top player for either club or country at any point in time in his career. Na only for BuLi Kimmich dey perform abi? He no get anything outside Germany, shey? Kimmich is world-class because he has been incredibly consistently over the last 6 seasons, turning up in some of the biggest games at the highest level. He is the best player on one of the top 3 teams in the world. Why you go even compare Kimmich, a DM with wingers like Vinicius and Sterling in the first place? 1 Like |

Realtord43:If that's your personal opinion, then who am I to hold it against you. We're talking about a general consensus (opinion) here and almost everyone except you will agree that Saka is not average!! You can still be that Wikipedia-analysts who judge footballers by only Numbers!! It's your choice bro |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by Realtord43: 6:38pm On Jul 04, 2023 |
Jodera:Do you believe Arsenal will dish out 70m to buy a average player from ligue 1? |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by Capaldi: 6:38pm On Jul 04, 2023 |
pkasso:Nonsense, Gnabry who? If it's a joke please stop it. The only place Kimmich has been consistent is in the Bayernliga and flopping in major tournaments for Germany but yet he is proclaimed as World class lmao. What a joke. Nor be only eye test na nose test. Does Haaland pass your so called eye test? You don't need talent or being one pseudo main man to be world class when you are dropping the numbers for your team. 2 Likes |
