How did you do it?

It means other positions will be players from 3.5m

I still had Douglas Luiz and Mbeumo. My bench was weak and i spent less on defenders and GKs.

It worked some weeks and backfired in other weeks.

hensben:
No reality check

And dribbling is the only indicator of talent??
Like I said earlier MENT

afrodoc2:


I had Salah, Haaland, Son in the same team, and still had Saka, Saliba, Alvarez as well.

Did you buy them at the beginning of the season?

timbros:


It's very possible.

I'm not telling you it can be possible. I'm telling you that I started the season that way, and being top 460k OR means I'm not doing too badly.

I only sold Son and Salah after their international engagements.

Oh okay.

To buy them back now may be a tad difficult, I suppose. Inflation don spoil things

oliverano:




You also recommended Jackson if I can remember correctly and now Jackson is known as a comedian.

Nico is good and I've watched him closely. I don't see how he'll elevate a top team. He's not world class and his finishing is very normal. He could do well at Barca since he knows the league already.

For me he's a pace merchant and I consider Adingra better than him. I could be wrong in future but currently he's very normal.

However, the real deal is Pedro Neto. Right wing, left wing, false 9. Attacking midfield, pace, power, good decision making with an eye for goal. That's what I'm talking about.

If he can stay injury free coz he's very prone to injuries, then he'll be the perfect replacement for Salah @Liverpool. He's been fit for an extended period now and playing at a first class level.

Neto is the man but 💰💰💰💰

Neto is a top player but we have enough doctors in our squad, we don't need more remote workers

Thazard:
Osimhen is waayyy better than lukaku in every way.

SMH.

Leyqute:

Haaland and Saka have always been in my team. I also had the useless pair of Rashford and Bruno. I bought Salah and Son later.

timbros:


Exactly.

I has similar setup too. With Saka, Alvarez etc..

You disappointed me big time. What happened to having Saliba,Ben,the whole of Chelsea backline plus Reece James to your FPL team instead packing attackers up and down.clean sheets should earn you more point than goals now. 😉

But Jackson is not that bad tbh. He just needs to improve on his decision making.

Now the guy get into spaces to score and create at times ,they should use that to know

If to say that guy na Spanish na 100M Villarreal for collect from their hands 😁

Like I said earlier MENT

Last time Ronaldo won a World Cup he was a Brazilian. Hazard finished third and was in the TOTT at the World Cup. Pure talent, you don’t need to depend on club team mate for easy tap ins, carry the team.

timbros:
Give me 200m as Chelsea's coach, I'll definitely look to strengthen ALL POSITIONS that needs improvement. Why? Because I need a balanced team. I want to score more and concede less.

I won't strengthen only attack because defence will be leaking more goals, rendering the attack's job useless.

I won't strengthen only defence because I'll need goals to win matches.

What is too hard here to understand?

You can't fund me and force me to spend on only one area. It doesn't work like that.

You're quite right but our more pressing need at the moment is the attack. Nigeria vs ivory coast should have taught us a lesson. You can't keep defending forever if your attack is nonsense.

What's your FPL team? Let me check if you don't have 5 defenders and 2 goalkeepers.

Leyqute:

My priority is bringing Salah back first. Maybe not Son, but Salah I definitely coming back. And my team value no bad.

@bolded... That final was an anomaly.

Nigeria came into AFCON with a tight defence. And that was their strength till the final. Conceded only 2 goals till final. Shouldn't that have taught you a lesson?

Nigeria can score just one goal and that was it.

Super Eagles came into the tournament with African Footballer of the Year who is a striker. But who ended up being the player of the tournament? A defender. What are you not talking?

Yes, the final backfired terribly, but the tactics all tournament was clear to see and it worked perfectly. Can you say in all honesty that you didn't enjoy Super Eagles games in AFCON?

Adingra and Haller didn't play the first game we won against them in the group stage but we saw both of their contributions with 2 assists and a goal when we camped deep in our own half to defend our one goal lead. Nwabali even saved us from total humiliation while ekong our player of the tournament failed to mark kessie and Haller tightly when we were under pressure. If either of Jackson or sterling were sensible before the opener we should have been at least 2 nil up before then setting up to defend for our lives.
I don't know which one is better cause truly some other teams have successfully defended their ways to major tournaments especially us in our two ucl wins but as far as im concerned our attack is more of a problem than our defence at the moment, even disasi we have been blaming since put in a man of the match display.

Like I said, the final backfired terribly. It can happen to any team. We have seen ultra attacking teams fail completely in certain matches.

Nigeria played 7 matches in AFCON. You have complain in just one of them, does that make the tactics all tournament rubbish?

If Nigeria had won that Nation's cup, we would have read tons of epistles, justifying why defence always wins you the titles.

Football has evolved. If you like park trailer, opposition will later map out strategy to break you. Inter had a solid defence, but still bowed to City in the Ucl final last year.

You need to have a dangerous striker that will occupy your opponents' CBs, and your other attackers will have pockets of space to exploit. When the opponents understand that your attackers are wastepipes in front of goal, you are at a huge numerical disadvantage, up against a quality side.

Get quality attackers, while your defence is decent, your opponents will be begging for a draw. Barca showed this with makeshift Mascherano as CB and below average Valdes, smiling and doing little work because Messi was wrecking havoc upfront. In fact, Barcelona won another Ucl with Yaya Toure as CB in the final. It was that soft because they knew their attack was destructive.

Kindly explain how
Senegal and Equatorial Guinea scored 9 goals at the AFCON and crashed out in the 2nd round

Nigeria scored 8 goals and made it to the final, Could have won if our defence held out

The team that outscore the other win the match and the Ivoiriens outscored us.

The major difference between the Cote D'Ivoire team that lost in the group stage to us and the one that defeated us, was in their attack.

Fae was smart enough unlike you, to detect the major problem and he fixed the attack and boom, they won the Nation's cup.

Learn and rest.

Neto is a top player but we have enough doctors in our squad, we don't need more remote workers

timbros:


No harm in dropping your view too.

I think 2 CF and one Lw or RW.

Jackson is never a CF and Nkunku isn't one.

As for CB, there's Badiashile, Colwill, Disasi, Chaloba. A coach with good system will get the best out of these four. Colwill and Badiashile mostly have shown good quality here while Disasi and Chaloba won't be bad as sub (this is me neglecting Dr Fofana)

Even though I know a good coach might get the best out of the attackers but what Chelsea needs now is a very good EXPERIENCED attacker and a very Good CF to lift this team up.
The likes of Mudryk, Madueke, Jackson and co po lack top flight experience and it's showing, if they don't sit up as possible wing deputy, then they need to be sold cos dem no deh show consistency

Midfield is already sorted so no need even talking about Midfield in terms of balance.

In summary, getting 2 quality CF (one Standard and one who can come from bench), and a quality LW/RW (a Neto kinda player without injury) will make this team balanced.

Even Hazard thinks Chelsea is a joke club

This is the reason and mentality why Hazard could not survive at Madrid

Which match have you ever witnessed 19 or 20 PK taken in the course of 90mins?

I don't answer stupid questions.

so if your striker miss 5 one on ones, but your keeper fail to catch a penalty after following the ball and punching, but the ball entered. will you blame you keeper for the loss or the striker?

Fake Rivers man, Nwabali is from Ogba Egbema, a true son of the soil
