swiz123:So that means you necessarily don't have to win trophies for you to be rated as World class then. I'm not saying Saka is world class, just clearing the air of you saying one must win trophy to be graded as world class (though it's very important) |

If this is not a massive improvement in attack and massive decline in defence, I don't know what else can prove it. The 2 screenshot below are league tables of last season and this season so far. After scoring a paltry 38 goals in 38 matches last season, we have scored 53 goals in just 29 games this season. But look at the defence... Just look at it. Conceded 47 goals after 38 games last season, which is woeful for a "big 6" club. What do we have this season? We have conceded 50 goals currently. There are still 9 games to go! If the defence improved on the figures of last season the way attack improved, there is no damn way we will be in the position we are right now. No way! But but attack is our problem... 8 Likes 1 Share

Jodera: Read my post calmly. I said as long as a player plays for a big team capable of competing for major trophies and fails to win anything after repeated trials, he can't be regarded as world class. Therefore two things makes a player World class; consistency in performance for at least 5 years or maybe more and trophies to show for it. 1 Like |

swiz123: The same Sterling and Jackson he is deflecting the argument towards, are Chelsea's top 3 goal contributors this season, including Palmer. Palmer 24 GA Jackson 12 GA Sterling 10 GA But no, they are Chelsea's problem in an attack that is on 53 goals so far. 1 Like |

forgiveness: So without Saka, England wouldn't have gotten so far? I think you are the one playing. |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by Jodera: 7:51am On Apr 05 |
swiz123:Alright then, I agree with you on this |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by lajid: 7:52am On Apr 05 |
timbros: In as much as I understand what Airmark is saying, to be honest, defense is our issue. We can’t be conceding 2 goals and more every damn match. You aren’t always going to score 3-4 goals every match just like when we drew 2-2 against burnley I think. Truth is, the defense has declined massively, but then our attack has grown and is causing opposition problems. In summary, as it stands defense is our problem 4 Likes |

swiz123:This season he's been carrying niggling injuries which have been affecting his play a while now. If you're only using this season to assess him(when he's played like 3 seasons of good football), then it's unfair on him from you. |

Jodera: When he mentioned big team, I knew he kind of excluded Kane because Totehman isn't a big team. I don't completely agree with his logic but I get his point though! |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by swiz123(m): 7:56am On Apr 05 |
timbros: And faultless defence has conceded 50. It almost feels as if our attacks major opposition is our defence, and not opponents. If we rate our defenders contribution by number of clean sheets, we will resort to donating their salaries to charity. |

If this boys brain correct, we can actually push for European place. If we can win our outstanding match, we will shoot up to 7th place, 2 points behind Man Utd and take it up from there.... But no, they will take 3 steps back after this one step forward.

Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by Kimbeast: 8:03am On Apr 05 |
swiz123:This logic is so flawed. So because Man city have won trophies Foden is world class but because Arsenal haven't then Saka is not world class lol. You are shouting big team without winning trophies like Arsenal have been dominating for years. They literally became good last season here. Their previous league finishes was 8th, 8th and then 5th. Saliba has been world class over the last two seasons, Arsenal winning a trophy or not doesn't change that. Same with odegaard and others. 1 Like |

Jodera: I remember when Reece James first joined the senior team and several people here were criticising him. I said then that that guy would be a high level performer cos he was like a street bully in the juniors. After a season those same critics were claiming he was the best RB in the world. Same thing this season. People who were crying salty tears when Palmer was bought are now claiming he is better than Bellingham, Foden, and even Saka combined. 😄 |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by oliverano: 8:03am On Apr 05 |
Thazard: Tottenham isn't a big team. No ambitious player will dream playing for them at this point. City, Liverpool, Arsenal, United and Chelsea. These are the big teams in England for now! Key word is "For Now" because 13 years ago, I wouldn't add City there and if you go way back, then Chelsea wasn't a regular customer too. |
