The only way Chelsea can qualify for UCL is by winning the Europa league. |

Eruditor:Firstly, if What you mean by Arsenal and united improved is that they signed players; i will do well to remind you that they also signed players last season, but they still finished below chelsea. That means that signing of players does not automatically mean that a team improved. Having said that, let me go back to the initial question i asked you. What made you say that chelsea has regressed and they can't contend for ucl places? BTW, your claim that chelsea can't finish above 6th is rendered invalid by "all things being equal" I know that if by mistake chelsea finish above 6th you will start telling us that there was no Ceteris Paribus 4 Likes 1 Share |

muyiwaadekunle1: Tottenham lost 7 of their last 12 games of the season and still were just 1 point behind CFC. Won more games than CFC, scored more goals and conceded about the same despite losing 5 more games than CFC. What other metric do you need to see that they were better? 2 Likes |

Eruditor: Liverpool lost only one match last season, they were way ahead of other teams by January not because they had scored more goals or played better football than Man city but the blue side of Manchester were crowned Champions in May. Stop using those metrics in football. It is the final position that matter. Did Everton not beat Chelsea, Arsenal, Man united at their home ground? Would you say because of that they ought to be placed above Arsenal? 1 Like |

Greatihex: Improved is that they signed players in positions they were deficient in and of more quality(the players they signed that is) than most of what the other teams have in said positions. Chelsea's team isn't better than the other top 6. In many positions, player for player they are not better. They lost their best player and the replacement will need more than 1 season to get to that level to plug the lacuna created by said player. CFC had problems scoring goals last season, that problem will worsen now. All things being equal is, if United loses 8 of their starters to injury. Or Arsenal get punished by the FA and have 15 points deducted from them. Or Spurs players meet their demise in a plane crash. I am not offended by the emotional line(s) of reasoning by most of you CFC supporters. Denial is usually the first stage of grief. 2 Likes |

SkimpleD: If the team fit try hold them to a draw and e enter penalty, i trust Kepa or that Baba penalty saving skills . Either way, make him start Giroud alongside Pedro and Pulisic for attack. Giroud has the ability to hold up play and link well with our wingers and he's also experienced playing against Van Dirk. Make Barkley sit down for bench, him still no wan take him opportunity , Let Kovacic lead the midfield with Jorginho -Kante partnership. Mount fit enter for Kovacic and Batshuayi for Giroud. 1 Like |

muyiwaadekunle1: But Arsenal beat Everton, CFC and United as well? It seems like you are throwing words around to legitimize your emotional arguments for CFC. LFC were at the best they have ever been league wise and someone else peeped them to the title. That shows that that team was better than them. Which is different than them underperforming for an inferior team to beat them. A good e.g will be CFC when they finished 10th in the season Mou was sacked. CFC were not the 10th best team that season. They only underperfomed to that level. In other words, they derailed. 2 Likes |

Leyqute: Hudson Odoi is recovering. Ruben Loftus-Cheek is recovering. Rudiger is recovering. Reece James is recovering. Kante is recovering. If these guys recover on time, Man utd will need to win Europa to qualify for UCL, if Chelsea don't fall to play there this season though. 1 Like |

thorrvik55:Zuoma is currently on mumu levels now. Chris is a sissy. Dude can’t even impose himself on that defense line. Azpi is past it. A part of me believes Emerson can handle Salah to an extent. But Manè go definitely use Azpi joke around. We should start Willian, Bats or Giroud and Pulisic. Kante should return to the starting lineup and Kovacic dropped. Mason should be man enough and take his chances ![]() 3 Likes |

Eruditor: You are just going back and forth. I need you to justify why Spurs were better and deserved 3rd place. I just used Liverpool, City scenario of how you said spurs were better than Chelsea and how Liverpool were better than everybody's else but lost the league. At the end of it all, near misses don't count. It is the eventual outcome. If they were really better as you claimed, they will never let their guard down no matter what . That's why you see teams that are exhausted midway through the season but have a mission grind out 1-0 wins most of the time, they secure die minutes draws, they'll rather loose their best player to a red card than loose a game. I am not using emotion tactics because i am a Chelsea fan , We came third last season and we deserved it. Before the Slump in December, the team followed Liverpool and City closely, where was Tottenham at that time even when we lost 3-1 at Wembley? Is it not when Chelsea had bad run of form that United and Spurs kick started their winning streak? So when they fell short of expectations and Chelsea started grinding out wins, was it anybody's fault? My Guy, Local man is tired ![]() 6 Likes |

SkimpleD: Make Mount sit down for bench o, the boy was not bold enough/ nervous to do some take on's against united. I agree he's for the future but he must learn. Na EPL be this, no be Championship . He can be a replacement for Kovacic, coming on as a substitute. I for like make Alonso start because we all saw what Salah did to Emerson at Anfield last season. He may have outgrown that sha with him performance at the Europa League final and against united on Sunday. The whole scenario just dey give me headache, all our experienced players wey go carry injury for this kind time no make sense 2 Likes |

muyiwaadekunle1: I don't think you know the meaning of back and forth. Spurs were the 3rd best team is the sentence I constructed. Deserving 3rd place is another argument. Liverpool were not better than everybody else. They were the 2nd best team in England. They were better than everybody else bar Man City. If LFC had finished 3rd to CFC. The argument then would have been, despite finishing 3rd, Liverpool were the 2nd best team in England. Letting guard down and derailing is not evidence of a team not being better. Freak injuries, internal turmoil are some of the things that could force a team to derail. PSG lost to United in UCL but they were clearly the better team. Bad run of form that Spurs needed to lose 7 of the last 12. 5 more than CFC to finish a point behind them and you can't draw a solid inference? Tired? LOL. Tired must be a euphemism for emotional. |
