Nihilist:Not buying the hype just yet On an Average day Aguero can do all what he has done with his eyes closed He looks good but nothing extraordinary |

CONTEDDICTED: Of course. But this is Pep we are talking about though |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by raumdeuter: 10:09pm On Feb 01, 2017 |
To be honest. Aguero has looked very average this season vs what he used to be. He has lost a lot of his sharpness Atimes taking too many touches when he should shoot and just being unsure of himself and sometimes too static, not willing to run press waiting for passes Especially in games like Spurs and Chelsea Yaya makes it 4 3 Likes |

Pep problem with Aguero is his pressing because Aguero only runs 7km per game while his mates run 11km 3 Likes |

Ibime: Aguero is made of glass. There's no way he can press like Pep wants. So what next? Kunte just signed a new contract. Where can he go from City? Only China I think... 1 Like |

Nihilist: Aguero can be very static his style of striking is getting outdated. A man who stays forward waits for service but has a high conversion rate. Staying up there and waiting for service nowadays wont cut it anymore A good Aguero is great to have, an off form Aguero is a liability and has no positives at all. Ask Argentina 2 Likes 2 Shares |

raumdeuter: Aguero is not off form. Pep has refused to play Aguero as a pure striker. He wants Kun to be pressing all over. Where did G.Jesus play today? 9? 10? 11? He's been everywhere. Aguero is a 9. That's his job. Even in this crappy season with injuries suspension and so on, Aguero has 15 goals in all comps. 11 in the league. That pressing is the issue not Kuns ability. Aguero is probably in top 3 pure number 9s in the game today 2 Likes 2 Shares |

Nihilist: Which brings us back to the topic, Style/Strategy of Play. Strong player easily in another style. 25-goals-a-season striker, easily, has a weakness in another strategy. People come with a blanket concept when it comes to style "how can he be struggling with a 25-goal-a-season striker?" He should adapt and play to the striker's ability. Well on the back of tonight's display, he doesn't. |

God bless the day we signed Kante. One Arsenal or Manure boy was laughing at me in summer when I said he is the signing of the season. Well it's clear he is now almost solely responsible for two league trophies back to back. First with Leicester and now with Chelsea. In both cases he took two relegation threatened teams and turned em into Champions the next season. Kai, that guy must be worth £150m in true value. 10 Likes 2 Shares |

Ibime:The only reason Chelsea did not have to pay through their noses to get Him is because He is not that "Marketable". That explains why He was Sold for a third of Pogba's transfer fee. 5 Likes |

Ibime: If he went to another team and won the league with them before we attempted to buy him, we wouldn't have dared. Just like Bimfo said earlier, we literally stole him for £32m. |

nateevs: And the best decision is to 'throw away' a proven goal-scorer because he can't play your style? Till when? |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by nateevs(m): 3:55am On Feb 02, 2017 |
Griffon: What will you have him do ? |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by Griffon(m): 7:01am On Feb 02, 2017 |
nateevs: I'll build the damn team around this proven goal-scorer because he can fire me to the league title. It is what makes me a manager. Its akin to saying, I'll sell Messi if I had him in my team because he is short and can't really lead the line in my long ball approach. It will be fool-hardy, letting go arguably the best player in the world for an approach I could have easily tweaked. No sane mind does that, only a philosophy obsessed Pep does it. 6 Likes 2 Shares |

nobody is even talking about the blueprint Tottenham has given the league on the newly found weaknesses at our backline; delivering infield crosses into Moses-Azpilicueta axis (due to their height). Guess we would just find a way of stopping the crosses from the source (crowding the 'crosser')or bring in Zouma for Azpili or just swap Cahill for Azpili. your thoughts house |

N'golo Kante made the two tackles, after Kante's first tackle Matic was supposed to cover for the other tackle making Kante cover matic. But No matic was busy shadow marking as he always does. I was trying to post the gif I donno how. check it out. https://twitter.com/ChelseaGIFs/status/826851224674828288?s=09 |

Griffon: Yes, true. The problem you have is that you don't accept that, that is only one way of doing it. There are other ways. For instance, like making another proven striker out of another system. This is akin to what JM did when he ditched Mata - a high scoring, high assist-making machine, for the low-scoring, low assist-making Oscar. The only problem is here is that it seems to be genius when it not Pep but foolish when it is Pep. 5 Likes |

atebesunny: A very good observation but majority will like to blame Alonso. Liverpool's goal was also through that weak point. For the fact they are vulnerable in that aspect, doesn't mean they're craps and should be blame but cushioning the effect of their weakness should rather be the bone of contention. The same applies to Alonso. |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by Ibime(m): 2:50pm On Feb 02, 2017 |
Nihilist: This is all based on style of play. Idrissa Gueye is the same. He wasn't in EPL 14/15 but he's top 10 on the list. |
