timbros: Zola said morata would not fit into our style, that we should buy a striker that will hit the ground running. Fast forward, before morata played his first game, conte was already saying kane was his ideal striker, that morata needed time to adapt. If you cant see sense in what zola said and the reality on ground now, it's not my problem. That pep has always been struggling with his defensive setups, doesn't make him dumb in other aspect of coaching a team. So if zola failed as an all-round coach in average teams, that doesn't mean he won't have a good knowledge of the type of attackers that will gel in a big team. Di matteo won us ucl, but last year he was hired and fired by aston villa within 4 months. So if matteo airs his views now, you will ask him to shut it. Meanwhile, Zola was a chelsea attacker and a great one at that. So from experience, what he had said for now, is spot on. We are not even sure if morata was conte's first choice. If he was and he is telling us he needs time to adapt, then i have overrated him as a coach. Then the board may be right dragging foot to rush and sign more spineless players suggested by him. Let's be more intelligent in our convo. Thank you. 3 Likes 1 Share |

afrodoc2: Tiruye is clearly the most talented of the sisters but Genzebe is not far behind. Her List of WRs is incredible plus she is already a world champ and an olympic silver medalist. Bruuuhhhhh Did I see it or what? I was not expectinf that If I am being Honest...Dude is also straight up savage asking If He can still be friends with Cormier?WTF after that massacre?..He called out Brock. I don't think Lesnar wants any of that tbh. This isn't the pantomine masquerading as wrestling He is used to. |

Erm there are other things Morata can do even if he can't score goals. His first touch can be very helpful and win you trophies. His first touch won the champions league for Juve and Madrid 5 Likes 1 Share |

chic2pimp: What shocked me wasn't the outcome but manner it happened cos Cormier is as strong as an ox and as tough as nails. But bruh when you are discombobulated you are discombobulated. I would advise Jones to steer clear of the real MMA heavyweights though. He won't have reach advantage against them and definitely won't have size advantage against those monsters....won't be nice for him to develop a stutter. |

I will cast final judgement on Morata when he has had a preseason. Spanish league starts late so his fitness is behind as Real Madrid had only just started preseason when we picked him up. He is not my style of striker, but I'm willing to give him a chance. What he needs to do is wake up and add aggression to his game. All those ninny style of play will not work here. 11 Likes 2 Shares |

Nihilstjnr: There is no iota of inconsistency in my posts. If Morata score 20+ goals per season the better for all of us BUT 20+ goals shouldn't just be the criteria to judge him. Drogba's numbers have proved that we don't need a 20+ goal striker to lift trophies. Mind you, Morata's goals won Madrid their last trophy. It must not be 20+ goals. Aside Ronaldo, Morata won Madrid most points last season. 3 Likes |

airmark: Di Matteo won us UCL. Zola haven't even managed us not to talk of delivering us any trophy. I know who I will listen to between Di Matteo and Zola. Evidence have proved repeatedly that Pep is overrated. It is interesting you never said anything about my Drogba example. |

Telegraph are running a report that the board has promised Conte three more signings. Aurier, Van Dijk and Drinkwater are the players shortlisted already. Now IMHO, the arrival of Dijk should see Azpi moved to the RWB on a permanent basis. We already have to many Centre-halfs and it's getting crowded over there. With Azpi and Moses at the RWB, there won't be any need to bring in Aurier, who looks pretty much like Costa 0.2, rather his funds should get us another LWB, a competition for the feeble Alonso. Drinkwater would count as homegrown talent and he knows the league well too. I won't mind having him, that our midfield needs anything that can trap the ball and tackle humans, just incase Kante shuts down. One LWB, one CB and one CM, and we are good. Your thoughts. 2 Likes |

lordfalcao: I just wonder. Even the season Drogba scored 20 league goals, we didn't even win the league. Airmark is talking as if 20 goals is a guarantee for the title. 3 Likes |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by Ibime(m): 11:24am On Aug 08, 2017 |
If we sign Van Dijk, we should sell Luiz or move him to midfield permanently. That CB is too overcrowded. Christensen go soon complain. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by timbros(m): 11:26am On Aug 08, 2017 |
Griffon: I'll still take Aurier. He is an attacking RB that can play RWB very well. Azpilicueta is versatile. He can compete with Alonso in the LWB position. Assuming all those signings come in, I will play Aurier and Azpilicueta in the WB positions and slot Van Dijk in RCB. |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by Nihilstjnr: 11:27am On Aug 08, 2017 |
timbros: I don't think you even know what your talking about. Drogba at Chelsea was playing with Balon Do'r and WPOTY podium finalist, UEFA midfielder of the year, African Footballer or the Year, UEFA defender of the year and so on... He was not playing with Kante, Alonso or Victor Moses. Drogba's team could afford to share the goal scoring burden...This team can't. I don't understand how it's not immediately obvious. I mean you're the same dude who was arguing that Costa's goals won something for us...but now Morata doesn't need to? ![]() Be consistent mehn... 7 Likes 1 Share |

Ibime: Van Dijk - Luiz - Cahill This IMHO isn't bad at all for Europe and the league. Rudiger and Christensen can serve as back-ups. There isn't really any strong reason to jettison Luiz if Dijk signs. We are trying to bolster this thin squad. |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by Ibime(m): 11:32am On Aug 08, 2017 |

Nihilstjnr: The question is, did Drogba our target man score 20+ goals for us to win titles? Why must Airmark continue his 20+ goals line everytime? Yes Costa's goals won us titles, so does Morata's goals in Madrid. It must not be 20+ goals. Stop misunderstanding me bros. I said Costa's goals won us titles and I still stand by that. Morata's goals won Madrid a title last season too. So yes, goals win titles. BUT IT MUST NOT BE 20+ GOALS. Wetin hard to understand there? 3 Likes |

Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by Griffon: 11:43am On Aug 08, 2017 |
timbros: Sir, we talking about an Ivorian who is still facing charges for assaulting a police officer in France. This guy makes Costa look like Jesus. Talking tactics, Azpi isn't just a fit for a LWB job. Defensively, he'd improve us down that flank, but his returns upfield would be a mess. Unless you are a certain Lahm, whipping in deadly crosses from the left flank with your preferred right foot is never an easy skill. And he doesn't make surging runs into the opposition own area sef, no need. |
