🚨 🗣 Cole Palmer admits his first season at Chelsea has gone better than he imagined. “It’s my first season and I thought I’d go there, hopefully play - but it’s gone much better than I could have imagined. I definitely feel I was justified. I came to play football. I made a difficult decision to leave Man City and go to Chelsea but thankfully it’s paying off and hopefully it will continue to do so.” (@johncrossmirror) #CFC 2 Likes

ThierryJay:Pep copied Cryuff just as much as Doku can say Neymar is his footballing idol. Those who watch them keenly will know they don't play the same way AT all. I usually dismiss all those "Pep copied blah blah" as simplistic nonsense - depending on the context or who was saying it. For the gazillionth time (not to you obviously), Pep does not play "possession" football or "total" football. He plays POSITIONAL football and he tweaks it every season. In fact, you can't watch Barca 2008-2012 and compare with this City if you are looking for similarities as you'd barely find it. People still have a hard time reconciling this truth. 1 Like |

airmark:I know you are full of mischief but I want to nip this in the bud so that when City are cleared off all the charges you won't mislead other members of your citadel on another "City cheated" campaign. The charges levied at City are from 2008-2015. Nothing to do with Pep or his time at City. 1 Like |

nateevs:I think this is being overanalyzed. xG is entirely probabilistic which means it is based on the likely outcome/possible outcome (for all penalty takers in the sample size). That number just means any player has an 80% chance of scoring from it. To that end, GodX is right. |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by Android17: 10:23pm On May 28 |
Amoto94:He did not say Palmer takes it because it has 0.8 probability but that because it has an 80% probability of going in, a player will usually get 8 goals out of 10 penalties taken. In other words, that there is nothing so fantastic about Palmer's numbers because 9 of those goals came from a chance that any average player was likely to score from than miss in 10 tries. Ederson would have had at least 9 goals to his name if he had to take 11 penalties for City for example. |

Android17: I'm smiling as I read your comment because you are pulling me into where I didn't want to go; delving into the technical depths of Pep's style. For sake of simplicity, I used possession football in generic terms to mean a dominant fluid style of play. If we go into details, Pep's tiki-taka style of 2008 - 2012 and with the Bayern team is different from this current City style which has been tweaked to be more pragmatic and less one-dimensional. In the end, I'd just say that Pep built on Cryuff's ideas, re-engineered and then owned it. 3 Likes 1 Share |

nateevs:If you have 5 boys and 5 girls, the probability of selecting a boy at random is 0.5 regardless of if the boy in question is short or tall or white or black. I'm simply saying if you take all the penalties taken as denominator and use penalties scored as numerator, the probability you'll get will be ~ 0.8 to represent every player. That is how it was arrived at. |

airmark:Your lack of education will always betray you. What part of your post has to do with Guardiola? Don't try to be stupid. He is still the manager right? So why would his 2023 title be in jeopardy if that timeline you presented means 2009-2018 = Guardiola Before you waste anyone's time with your lies. The timeline with regards to City managers SPECIFICALLY mentions Roberto Mancini. Use your brain you won't. Someone must spoon-feed you every time. 1 Like |

Android17: The financial fraud perpetrated in 2016 through 2023 (during Fraudiola's period), gave them the power and advantage to sign players in the team to edge other teams in quality in depth. The proceeds of such fraud (trophies), should never be hailed. Meanwhile, apologize for this shameful lie below as the charges cover Fraudiola's period in Man City. Android17: 7 Likes |

Are they using Summerville's rumor to ask Sterling to gather his luggages and leave? |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by Android17: 3:12am On May 29 |
airmark:Why not 2009? Why did the fraud not allow City the advantage to sign Pep in 2016? I told you, you are just typing whatever comes to your mind. Some of the FFP accusations come from purchasing Brahim Diaz to City academy. Paying Roberto Mancini through a different account. Those are the things that gave Pep an advantage in 2024. Clap for yourself. In case you need reminders 1. Leaked/Hacked emails concerning City in 2014. About transactions circa 2009-2014. 2. UEFA summon City - City refuse to comply. UEFA charge City 2015. Case gets re-ignited 2018. This is the source of the English FA's case. City are not cooperating with the FA and will only tender evidence to an independent adjudicator like they did with the UEFA case. That is majorly what the all charges of City not cooperating are from 2018 till date. Again, nothing to do with Pep. Shameless airhead. |

Palmer on the celebration : “All my comments on instagram were always saying “cold, Cold Palmer” and stuff like this so I did that celebration against Luton and it just stuck from there. I’ve got all the little kids coming up to me doing it. It makes me laugh to see the kids do it, they really enjoy it and so it’s a fun thing to do.

Gucciboy: I cant help feeling like Pep made a huge mistake with Palmer. I guess Ice Cold was a victim of Grealish being a senior man in the dressing room, and that has cost City the chance to have Palmer, Foden and Silva behind Haaland. Maybe Pep felt it would be too many lefties. Or maybe Palmer and Foden might want to occupy the same spaces on the pitch. Either way their loss has been our tremendous gain. 2 Likes |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by Amoto94(m): 10:31am On May 29 |
nihilistjnr:You cant have Silva, Foden and Palmer for the same roles you won't have enough minutes to share knowing that there is Grealish, Doku and Alvarez on the opposite side or as qn option to play f9. I applaud Palmer for asking to leave giving those ahead of him in the pecking order. City's loss is Chelsea or should I say it's a win-win situation for all the parties involved, City got a decent sum for an academy graduate a pure FFP profit, Palmer gets playing time and Chelsea got a superstar in the making for cheap in hindsight. |
