airmark: For the record, no one is content being just top four. I went on record last season with an ambitious forecast of winning the league. I also have been on record saying our problems last season were purely tactical, and that a better tactical manager would have finished top four easily. So let's put that whole Brighton, Aston Villa talk to bed once and for all. . --------------- To the striker situation, again i don't think anyone opposes upgrading any positions; and this includes Jackson. Let's not conflate issues. The debate is about understanding what is realistic arguments and what isn't. 1. Don't ask us to spend £100m on strikers who are at worst, on par with Jackson, or at best, only marginally better. It makes no financial sense. 2. Don't tell us we need to sign a new striker to compete for the league or even win it. It's just not true.. And there's a plethora of examples. 3. The club is not going to spend £80m on any striker aged 25+. It's just not going to happen. So there's no need recommending those. 1 Like |

nateevs: That's one of the issues I have with you - faulty judgement of players' ability. While you thought Jackson could lead us to winning the Epl, It's on record I asked for a better striker before the season started. Eventually, I was right as Jackson flopped in front of goal, repeatedly and we couldn't win Epl as you dreamt. nateevs: Good, let's upgrade the wasteful Jackson. nateevs: Gyokeres and Dovbyk are massively better than Jackson. That's how someone ignorantly posted Sesko's goals per match stat to show he is not better than Jackson. When I showed their goal per minute stat, he ran away. Important stats like Goal per minute, big chances missed, possessions lost etc, expose Jackson as a liability that must be replaced. nateevs: With volume of big chances we created and missed and with Jackson as the major culprit, this your view is null. Even when we had Hazard and better wingers, Costa's effectiveness in front of goal was the cherry on the cake that gave us Epl trophies. nateevs: There are strikers better than Jackson that don't cost 80m and are still below 25. Dovbyk, Alvarez, even Rodrigo Muniz (injury concern) are all better than Jackson in front of goal. Maresca would be foolish, going into the season with Jackson as our main striker again. |

airmark:you were not right about Jackson you were just unhappy, you expected this and they got something else. It happens Gyokeres and Dovbyk are massively better than Jackson. That's how someone ignorantly posted Sesko's goals per match stat to show he is not better than Jackson. When I showed their goal per minute stat, he ran away.it's sad and pathetic that you mentioned Alvarez, it shows how desperate you are, why not let Nkunku be CF instead then and stop your noise. By the way Artem Dovbyk isn't 25, he is almost 27. And the fact you mentioned Muniz is better than Jackson just says it all. All the noise you have been making you haven't mentioned one single striker that would fit Maresca style and still bang in goals and will definitely bench Jackson. Chelsea ain't looking at Osimhen and Viktor because of price and age, they have made an offer for Sesko who may must likely not join Chelsea. 1 Like |

airmark: Sir, you are renowned for faulty judgement of player's abilities..... on an infinite level, everyone knows this. It literally takes up 60-70% of the arguments of this space. You probably go to Torres and Morata, and that's about it for me. You on the other hand though....I will let Dayo and the crew remind you. To the topic at hand. We did not fall short of winning the league because of Jackson. That's disingenuous. You recommended bloody Vlahovic. You think he instead of Jackson would have won the league? Are you seriously kidding us. On the other points, I make good judgement with data. Chelsea has won the league only twice with a striker scoring more than 20 goals. Matter of fact, the first two league titles were won by all of the support casts, not by main strikers. This is despite having renowned names like Crespo, Mutu, Shevchenko and Drogba. Madrid has no renowned no 9 scoring 20+, yet they coasted to a CL trophy. In the years of Liverpool's dominance under Klopp, they had no renowned no 9. Arsenal did not fail to win the league because they had no renowned no 9. The list goes on. ---------- The likes of you would have preferred Darwin Nunez to Jackson 3 seasons ago. Until they show up in the PL and are posting poverty numbers. Meanwhile Jackson shows up and scoring 60% of Nunes' total in one season, despite his misses. Tactically, the one very important thing you completely miss is that Jackson is a hardworking, intelligent and elite-level footballer who constantly makes runs for his team mates and shows up in the right places. This is a precursor to missing chances in the first place. That's an inherent ability. The fact that he misses chances doesn't automatically equate to Vlahovic arriving in those same right places. Therefore there is an argument to be made that it does not automatically translate to higher scoring prowess. In all, no one is saying that for the right player, don't upgrade Jackson. That's not even close to what the debate is about. I for one would sign Alvarez in a heart beat. But to be bringing us Dobvyk, Muniz, Vlahovic all because you don't like Jackson is pure nonsense. 5 seasons ago, Airmark would have been telling us Bellotti is better than Jackson. 5 Likes 1 Share |

nateevs: While you erronously believed Jackson would lead our line to win the league last season, below was my post in August. Do I need to post the curses many Chelsea fans later hurled at Jackson? airmark: I don't need to waste time on this as Chelsea already saw the need to replace your wasteful Jackson. Be that as it may, if you are Juventus Chairman, will you swap Jackson for Vlahovic? No sane club owner or coach would do that and that's why your view that Vlahovic is not a better finisher, is ludicrous. I will find time to address other horrendous claims in your post. I just parked briefly, to reply this. |

Say no to Alvarez. That nigga too short and weak and can't lead the line Anyone posting poverty numbers when leading the line for City is a big suspect See our guy Jesus at Arsenal as example City want dupe us like they did with Sterling. That guy has been playing rubbish at City this last season |

airmark: Alhaji park well. Vlahovic was valued at £80m +, whilst Jackson was valued at £30m. That's £50m of difference in value. Whilst Vlahovic is posting 16 goals in the season in a weaker and slower league, Jackson posted 14 goals in the Premier League, with the biggest debate being that he could have scored more. We don't care about Juventus' chairman. At £80m +, if that ninjah is not posting 35 goals in the Serie already, Chelsea's board have concluded, pound for pound, he's not better than Jackson. And that's the ultimate data-driven verdict. 6 Likes |

nateevs: ![]() Calm down baba, which one be Alhaji? ![]() Jackson already admitted that he was wasteful for us, so no need to defend him abeg. I even want him to go on loan after we get his replacement, so that his development won't be stalled on the bench. I still believe he can improve, for now he can't use Chelsea senior team as academy. Vlahovic's value rose again after we fumbled the chance to nab him last summer. You don't buy diamond the price of bronze. I was in support of Lukaku+ 30m that time and it would have helped us. He is not useless in front of goal as Jackson. A natural finisher is what we need most next season.
