One is really a central midfielder, the other is really an attacking midfielder. The central midfielder as expected is better in possession while the attacking midfielder scores more and makes more assists. They are both world class but one is more accomplished than the other by virtue of the teams he has played in. This question has no answer. 1 Like |

eph12:I want to understand something. So swapping just Kroos for KDB will automatically give City a higher chance of winning the CL? If KDB is a better player, why hasn't he won the CL in the City that he is already in? Or haven't the same players that will play with Kroos already been playing with KDB? |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by eph12(m): 8:44am On Aug 15, 2018 |
Unlimited22:You all bringing up the trophies yeah? So imagine kroos was at City and KDB was at Madrid this period, which of those teams would have been a safer bet to win the Champions League? |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by madrid5: 8:44am On Aug 15, 2018 |
eph12:you think kroos only performs in real Madrid?, where was debruyne in 2014 world cup when kroos was the best midfielder at age 24? |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by madrid5: 8:45am On Aug 15, 2018 |
eph12:kroos won a world cup and a champions league(played 2 finals) before he came to Madrid,so this point is totally false |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by eph12(m): 8:45am On Aug 15, 2018 |
Unlimited22:LOL! Don't know what to say again o. You agree Kroos is a better player because he has won the Champions League these multiple times yeah? |

Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by hopefulLandlord: 8:47am On Aug 15, 2018 |
patrickmuf: You realise Kroos in his career has played as Winger Attacking Midfielder Central Midfielder even plays Left midfield in a 442 diamond dictating plays from there and covering up for Marcelo's attacking runs? Maybe you should start watching him in Laliga rather than looking for Kroos in EPL matches? 1 Like |

afrodoc2:I repeat if KDB is better than kroos by virtue of his end product and playing in lesser teams then Erikson is better than xavi. 4 Likes |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by Unlimited22: 8:48am On Aug 15, 2018 |
eph12:Madrid. And look at Toni's contribution to their winning teams. Well, I think I'll just go with what afrodoc2 said. KDB plays in more advanced roles than Kroos. Also the person who talked about Jorginho not playing with KDB should be happy he didn't go to City. Their midfield would have been impossible to mark with him, and he was to be brought to slowly replace Fernandinho, who is now 33. |

eph12:a question which I have trashed,kroos at 24 before real Madrid has already played at a higher level than debruyne now. |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by Unlimited22: 8:50am On Aug 15, 2018 |
eph12:Oga, na ball we dey watch for field. I agree Toni is a better player because he's been a great contributor to Madrid and Bayern's cause to win those trophies. I may say yes in this case but you will never hear me say Benzema is a better striker than Aguero because of UCL. |

Stats for their best performing WC tournament

Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by Unlimited22: 8:51am On Aug 15, 2018 |
And since anytime we call Hazard someone will say no WC no Euro no UCL final, no one should call KDB because his assists have been in a LOCAL LEAGUE. 2 Likes |

Coutinho14: Let me ask you, would KDB bench Sergio Busquets too? |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by madrid5: 8:52am On Aug 15, 2018 |
eph12:you are dancing around a corner, first you said kroos is gifted his trophies at Madrid, I give you kroos outside Madrid you dey talk of timeline,lol. |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by Unlimited22: 8:54am On Aug 15, 2018 |
hopefulLandlord:Maybe he should be benching Fernandinho at City or should have benched Matic at Chelsea. Perhaps he should have benched Witsel at the World Cup. |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by eph12(m): 8:54am On Aug 15, 2018 |
Unlimited22:So can we safely trash those points of winning the Champions League back to back? Because if there was a swap, Madrid will still have a much higher chance of winning the Champions League than City, even with best player Kroos |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by madrid5: 8:55am On Aug 15, 2018 |
eph12:so by your logic who is the better player between prime erikson and xavi? |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by hopefulLandlord: 8:56am On Aug 15, 2018 |
Coutinho14: This is exactly where you ruin your own argument. what qualities does Xavi have that KDB doesn't according to you? because from where I stand I can think of many things KDB does that Xavi never did. What makes KDB better than Kroos makes him also better than Xavi. You want to eat your cake and have it due to your being a barca fan hey? You suddenly got sentimental when Xavi was mentioned not realising what makes Xavi so good was his consistency in his role just like what makes Kroos so good. If you dare to engage this I promise you you would make a uturn on your KDB > Kroos conclusion 4 Likes |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by eph12(m): 8:59am On Aug 15, 2018 |
afrodoc2:Kroos plays with Modric and Cas, KDB plays with Silva and Fernad. How is their situation different? If people are to talk about the major difference makers in Madrid's midfield, Modric and Cas would be mentioned first and second before Kroos. Do you agree? 1 Like |

hopefulLandlord:Bousquet is overrated. Bousquet can only strive in ball possession team like Barca under pep. It’s not a co incident that Barca are now signing ishun players to cover Bousquet deficiency as DM. Meanwhile Kante can play for any team and tactics. Bousquet is very limited as a player.

hensben: "Kante can play for any team and tactics" I like this rubbish Kante came to prominence in a defensive and counterattacking Leicester City Moved to a defensive and counterattacking Chelsea under Conte Played in a French team that plays defensive and counterattack whenever they face a top team But in your head Kante would play any style even though the teams he's played in are all counterattacking teams at best? Now let me ask you though? why is Busquets who has only played possession team ruled out from being able to play other styles but Kante is not judged by same metric? 2 Likes |

I see people that define a player with stat as kids who started watching football post cr7 and Messi era. Stat is fraudulent due to so many things to be put into consideration before comparing two players playing for different club and league, so is number of trophies or trophies won to rate two players considering football is a team sport, not lawn tennis. 2 Likes |
