airmark: Guy I dey tell you. I dey suspect say Boulahrouz had some steroids shots and few tramadol pills before stepping into the pitch that day. After the highness clear that night, Dinho reminded him how much he missed home in the return fixture. Del Horno? Just a season and he was gone. The Lionel Messi's incident is the only memorable thing i remember about him, oh and his goal against spurs that year. But you don't blame these lot for their lack of longevity at Chelsea. They were unfortunate enough to be here when we had a manager who identified his 'untouchables'. If you weren't part of the 'untouchables', then you can leave after two games.

raumdeuter: I remember that year well too, they beat us in the quarter finals. Redondo played out of his socks that year, possibly the best CM performance in UCL in the last 20years by a player not named Xavi. 2 Likes |

airmark: Anelka turned 19 in late March so safe to say he scored most of his 19 goals at 19. In other words, they are in similar age bracket give or take. |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by airmark(m): 3:53pm On May 10, 2017 |
Ibime: Dont muddle things up bro. Anelka clocked 18 years in march 1997, while Mbappe hit 18 in december 2016. If we want to compare these guys at 18, it will be anelka of 1997/1998 season vs Mbappe of 2016/2017 (we even conceded 2 months to anelka i.e april/may 1998 he was 19, while from september 2016 to december 2016, mbappe was 17 years) . We will have Anelka ( 6 goals in 26 matches in 1997/1998 season) vs Mbappe (14 goals in 26 matches in 2016/2017). Without even touching his numbers against man city, dortmund and juve. Anelka was not better than kelechi at 18. |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by Ibime(m): 4:06pm On May 10, 2017 |
airmark: No need getting too pedantic. I am not stuck on the number 18. Why I called Anelka is because it is in my memory that he was burning down EPL as a teenager. So in 1998/99 season, Anelka was 19 and burning up EPL. He only turned 20 toward the end of the season. Mbappe was 17 at start of this season but only scored 3 league goals before his 18th birthday. So in essence, we are comparing Mbappe burning up Ligue1 at 18 to Anelka burning up EPL at 19. It's a valid comparison, no? I could have picked Michael Owen at 17, it doesn't matter. In essence, what I am saying is I don't feel comfortable breaking transfer record for a teenager in his first season. He could be as good as Anelka, or might be as good as Ronaldo Lima or maybe a Michael Owen. Even Ronaldo Lima was given time to show working at PSV before he started breaking transfer records. One more season would provide more comfort. And who said Kelechi is 18 sef? ![]() ![]() |

Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by Greatihex(m): 4:31pm On May 10, 2017 |
airmark:Risks are always calculated before being taken in business. In this case, for £80m, the risk is not worth taking. |

Ibime: I took you on because you specifically mentioned 18 years, and Anelka was a nobody at that age compared to mbappe. Anelka joined madrid with just 1 ucl goal in 5 matches, against a greek team. If mbappe could justify himself against juve, dortmund and pep fraudiola's city , its a risk worth taking. Just like almost every of madrid's heavy signings, it must be criticised. Kelechi by law is 18, every other info must be jettisoned. ![]() Greatihex: Like we left an eredivise suarez and bought an epl-tested torres, calculated risk indeed. Any reliable striker now with solid ucl performance, will not cost less than 50m. How much did we waste on batshuayi that never had ucl experience? In two years time great strikers will be bought with 150m. |

Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by airmark(m): 5:16pm On May 10, 2017 |
bigkesh: I learnt chelsea's board is not convinced, but conte is pressing for 65m to be splashed on him. If it happens, zidane will happily buy mbappe even if it's 100m. Conte needs to watch 90 minutes of all morata's matches this season and not goal highlights. Next season is a long hike, everyone wants to beat the champions, morata wont be spared. raumdeuter: Aguero playing less than 10 matches as a lone striker for city. |

airmark: I trust Conte's wits more. He also has a pedigree for bringing out the best in seemingly average players. From what I read from Morata, he is ready to run through a brick wall for Conte and it seems Conte loves him back. You cannot buy this. Although he is not first my choice, Mbappe is. What is most important is that Conte doesn't want Lukaku. |

Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by Spy360(m): 5:51pm On May 10, 2017 |
airmark:If Mbape had been playing in the EPL would he still make it? As far as I am concerned, he is not better than Rashford. It all has to do with the league demands + the manager's confidence. Jardim allowed Mbappe to flourish even when Falcao became fit. Anelka with the standard of 97/98 was as good as Mbappe is today. 1 Like |

Spy360: Guti was good and quite versatile but not Redondo's class. El Principe at his best was special. |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by airmark(m): 8:03pm On May 10, 2017 |
nateevs: Winning ucl is what appeals to me. When hazard and co are out of form, marked out or injured, we need a striker who can carry the burden and deliver. This drogba did, costa did before his recent madness. I just hope conte wont make himself a laughing stock in europe again, with his buys. Spy360: Rashford for life. A player that is more of a super sub than a full time player. |

afrodoc2:Redondo? Hahaha. I think Guti was better, especially after Redondo left. Guti was inborn galatico. Redondo sha, that nutmeg for Raul's goal vs Man Utd was classic. |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by afrodoc2: 8:45pm On May 10, 2017 |
Spy360: You are wrong. You have a right to be wrong though. If we are talking about great and dominant CM performances in a UCL season and we mention Xavi, Redondo, Effenberg e.t.c nobody will mention Guti. |
