In games where Cole is getting marked out (like yesterday), surely we’d be better off playing him on the right where he can’t be followed all game and playing Nkunku through the middle as a 10.
but we do rotate, it just so happens that nkunku's rotation comes in the midweek games, which he doesnt like. Plenty of strikers have to play weekends and midweek. Jackson gets more rest than many elite strikers
Probably trying to build some chemistry and consistency, but clearly Madueke is not it. In hope Neto benches him for good, unless we try Cole on RW and Nkunku as CAM with Neto/Mudryk on LW
Selling Nkuku will be a major mistake. Personally I would start him ahead of Jackson. If we have an injury upfront and Nkuku is sold that will cost us. Nkuku is a proven finisher, Jackson is not there yet and may never get to the level of finishing that Nkuku has accomplished.
Arsenal game was a perfect opportunity to bring on Nkunku for Palmer and let him cook in the 10 role. Don't think people remember how well Jackson, Mudryk and Nkunku were linking up in their first pre season
Am not surprised of Nkunku's news, since the beginning of this season i knew that he will be living come the summer window. And am okay with that but not to United thou this isn't a money mount, i think he would strengthen them and we cant let this happen
He's our best striker by a mile. It would be extremely painful if he left. The manager is doing great, but I do suggest changing a few more players a bit more regularly and giving them more time as a sub, not five mins at the end! Please start playing Nkunku more often
You haven't watched chelsea if you want nkunku on the wings, he is best behind the striker in that ghost 10 position, he'll score goals there, no doubt.
@miguelgaspard7867 you haven't seen how shit he is on the wing for us, he isn't gonna go 1v1 and beat the fullback, he is a player that plays in the pockets and maresca doesn't want his wingers starting off in the central areas.
Why can't we rotate Nkunku into the A-side? He can play behind Jackson as a 10 when we need to rest Cole, he can play on either wing, and he can play as a striker in front of Cole or Felix when Jackson needs a break. Just need to get the rotation going. Cole was limping noticeably at one point during the Arsenal game. so he could probably use a rest (break will help). His importance to us cannot be understated, but we need to remember that he's human. Just start giving Nkunku minutes. Rotate players who are starting to become jaded. Problem solved.
Chelsea could gain from losing out on Nkunku and going for a different profile of striker to Jackson, maybe someone who can convert some of those Neto crosses…
We are destroying his career. IN-form Nkunku is much better player than Palmer. I'd remove Noni from first 11, let Palmer roam around and play Nkunku as a shadow striker. Jackson ST, Nkunku Shadow Striker, Neto LW, Palmer RW/Roaming, Caicedo,Lavia, Cucu, Colwil,Fofana,James, Sanchez (although I'd try Jorgensen)
Nkunku makes sense to let go but I wouldn’t sell him to anyone in the Premier League. United have multiple attackers Zikzee just came in and they splashed 70 mil on Hoijlund
Nkunku is so good he just need Prem time like everyone else to improve and be sharper. His workrate might be less than Jackson but his finishing and directness is much better. If Chelsea buy a top striker they will get 0 workrate goal machine. Thats the new strikers that score alot of goals currently. This would be a mistake.
Lavia and Caicedo can work well if the former sit deep as deep playmaker, Caicedo doing box to box thing, a genius attacking #8 who is a mastercontoller in the central zones pushing balls mostly forward and calming/raising tempos during games.
Maresca is a great coach but sometimes Jackson needs to be subbed off at 70 minutes so is madueke he plus too much doesn’t do anything with the ball. Play nkunku LW bench madueke play Neto LW which he is better and let’s see how great we can be
We need to get NKUNKU and FELIX in the starting lineup if we want to finish top 4. NONI has been poor and needs to sit on the bench . 4-3-3. Back 4: CUCCURELA, JAMES, FOFANA, COLWILL. Midfield 3: CAICEDO, ENZO , FELIX, Front : NETO, NKUNKU, PALMER.
Nkunku plays behind Jackson and Palmer plays on the right. Palmer will still be lethal from the right especially with Jackson and Nkunku to link up with. Also Palmer can invert while James overlaps the wing. Another option is Nkunku up top and Jackson on the left. But Christo is not a winger.
We really have amazing players and it is normal that some want more game time. My biggest fear with selling players to our rivals is like Yan said, that he goes there and performes really good. I just hope even if we sell him, that he goes to another country.
Teams will now all game plan to take Palmer out of the game. Maresca needs to react and having an Int’l break gives us time to do so. A new set up? Something teams will have to guess about in future fixtures.
Nkunku, Felix, Palmer and even Enzo to an extent are all vying for one position imho That is their best position which CP has his own just yet. So we need a solution to play atleast 2 players in this role to get the most out the area we have the most strength in.
Jackson Neto Nkunku Palmer Madness letting him go We have Madueke Sancho and Felix as backup. Mudryk doesn’t have the same output as even Joao he is the one that needs to leave. With Estevao and Paez coming in I see even Noni leaving in the next 2-3 years. Nkunku is important
Nkunku and Felix should get game time when Palmer and Jackson are not being effective..the squad needs to be managed and rotated on merit and fitness to keep players happy
Why are we not using the predatory skills of Nkunku in the other floating 8 role next to Palmer, and have a fullback invert into DM. Instead of having Gusto running past Lavia to fill the floating 8 role - Gusto simply cannot score, Nkunku would have easily buried that Gusto header (and many other chances that Gusto ends up with)
simple solution Jackson Sancho Nkunku Palmer Neto Caicedo Reece Cucu Colwill Wesley Sanchez I believe Reece and Caicedo offer enough physicality in the midfield to have both palmer and nkunku there, but lavia and enzo are unlucky to miss out, maybe we just put Nkunku up front and bench jackson with enzo in the half space
do you reckon we can play nkunku in palmers position and have palmer play deeper initially in a game against a leicester, and see how it goes? I feel like we really need to see nkunku and jackson together.
Wasn’t Nkunku signed by Roman? I feel like I remember him signing but having to stay at Leipzig for the rest of their season because he didnt get to Chelsea immediately.
Nkunku should remain at Chelsea at all costs. He is an excellent player. Mudryk shouldn't be getting more time than Nkunku tbh. He is more versatile than Mudryk Neto and Noni combined. Even the thought of selling him to rivals is insane.
@@KinotiNdubi Misleading stats. PAO, Gent and two against Noah and how many of them were pens. He's been invisible and ineffective most of the time, missing good chances as well. Very disappointing from someone who showed so much quality.is still keep him over that useless Felix, though.
@@PesMLRyanGiggs I get your POV, but Mudryk and Neto had similar if not more chances. The only thing they have that he doesn't is the explosive pace. Though in every other aspect he is a way better player. Since he's not a natural 9 or a 10, Palmer would have to go wide to accommodate him behind Nico. Then Sancho on the left. What's your opinion?
@@KinotiNdubi Mudryk and Neto hold the width naturally better than Nkunku, that's why they play. I'd like to see Palmer, Nkunku, Neto/Sancho/Mudryk behind Jackson.
Noni has been poor for a while now. Its infuriating when managers sacrifice results to let players play through extended periods of poor form. We could easily play NKunku @ CAM & Palmer @ RW. In fact Jackson; Neto, NKunku, Palmer is probably out best attacking lineup.
We cannot let Nkunku go without trying him with Neto Jackson and Palmer. We have only scored 2 goals in 2 games. With a defence that do not get clean sheets we need to try a little tweak. Especially with the games coming up. If not sell him and use the money to buy Osimen.
52 million is a steal for whoever gets him, he will turn out to be one of the best in the world, if enzo is to be a WORLD CLASS manager which we want, he HAS too make room for nkunku somehow
Gusto is occupying the spaces palmer is supposed to be occupying hence his lack of efficiency gusto shouldnt be inverting cucureilla should be inverting letting palmer occupy the right hand spaces
Truth is..if u ask me.. nkunku is a bit lazy..yes he's the best finisher we have but he's lazy.. won't work as hard as Jackson. And madueke helps out defensively. So I get why he does it.. he's quality but I'd let him leave... not all top players will fit all systems
He’s (Nkunku) good enough for a Champions League team (your words) why would we sell? Strength in depth and yes you’re not going to be able to keep everyone happy but I’d drop Madueke bring Neto on the right, Nkunku on the left, Palmer behind Jackson and rotate the 3 behind Jackson so you could have Neto left Palmer right Nkunku central and so on. I think we’d be stupid to let him go he’s been great this season.
Nkuknu has to worth a good bit more than 52 million. Solanke was 65 million. N'kunku is going to walk into someone else's first team and be a beast because other teams will play him in his best position. He's got to be worth 80-90 millions he's also our top scorer. I don't understand why Enzo always plays with wingers instead of 10's. Man Utd for example play Bruno and Garnacho or Rashford behind a striker and they have the freedom to go wide or come inside more into the channel. When we need to score a goal and say Noni is struggling to have an affect on the game, he should bring on N'kunku and try something different with a second striker. Some teams to break them down would struggle to with a narrower attack Felix and N'kunku and Palmer behind Jackson, and you still get width from Gusto and Cucarella. Or you still have one winger like Neto stretching the defence and pulling a fullback out wide leaving gaps in the middle for a second striker. I'll be gutted if N'Kunku leaves as he' a perfect Chelsea player and is top quality. Enzo also needs to sub Palmer off more when he's not affecting the game. Give him 70's mins and swap for Felix. There's no point in having this incredible depth in our squad if we don't use it, and leave on struggling players who can't get into the game.
Wesley was so close to a Thiago Silva esk moment against the Arse it was insane he’s only going one way atm and it’s up. Bro please stop with the Sanchez hate it a position that every mistake could cost the whole game at this level he’s only young as a keeper and consistently produces saves Kepa would let in EVERY TIME WE NEED VICTOR IN JAN AND WE COULD WIN THIS SEASON THE FUTURE IS BLUE 💙 KTBFFH
Nkunku is and always was a Timo Werner signing he’s potential is awesome but the reality is the same let him join whoever he’s a profile of player identified way before the current project move him on and reinvest he’s got something just not the something we need
Let's get our money back on Nkunku, he's a proppa sicknote. Can use that money and big money wages on someone who isn't knackered and could improve the first team. Sell him off and bring in Oshimen probably the outcome of this rumour
Yannick bro Palmer as the RW doesn’t mean he’s going to be a touchdown winger, he’ll be in the same spaces if not more with Reece James providing width for crosses
Lavia is great for defensive work but not a great passer. Jackson is more of a nuisance to defenders, with his pace and dribbling ability but Nkunku is more of a „give me the ball in the box or in the edge of the box and watch the net“ player. That’s the difference between the two. He is an elite finisher but lacks that dirty game that Jackson brings. On the other hand Jackson lacks that elite finishing that Nkunku has. I feel like it’s all on the manager to decide the type of game and player he wants to have
Yes please sell him! And noni. It's a never ending cycle with Chelsea fans. "Start ziyech 😡 omg how you expect mudryk to improve if you don't give him minutes 😡 even tho we have palmer nkunku felix, somehow magically fit chukeuemeka in the team 😡 " Being in the team shouldn't mean handing out minutes just because you exist 🤫
you guys making this nkunku situation a issue... jackson is doing well so he play, nkunku get is chance in the conference league and he's scoring too, but his work rate is locking... anyone want to leave let them leave no regret.
I cringe when you talk about what Santos did in thr under 20 Brazil side, under 20s playing against under 20s south American sides lets just wait till he plays with big boys and then judge, also please don't forget we have Willian and Paez to come, Estevao fills me with excitement but again it's a big boy league to move into. Keep it up Yan, best and most enjoyably objective 😊Chelsea channel.
During games where its minute 60 past you don't see much from jackson. I just don't get how nkunku doesn't come on and get more gametime, even palmer when he needs to be subbed off we either keep him on or sub him very late, maresca needs to be more brave especially in these big games. We're learning, were improving but i would not sell nkunku
Cut to the chase: after 11 games is Nkunku better (more productive) than Jackson or Guiu in the minutes played and opportunities given? In the games when Jackson is not effective enough, why doesn't Maresca give other an equal opportunity?
How arrogant are Chelsea fans that we would rather try to make it work with an underperforming underworking madueke just for English headlines instead of the obvious answer being nkuku need to start in the prem games. Palmer Enzo and nkuku should be on the field at all times to start.
when Jackson and Palmer are not performing as they have not been recently , Felix and Nkunku should be put on the pitch in their place. The problem with our fans is that they expect every player to score a hat trick or three assists every game, now these nincompoops are after Lavia for a subpar game when two weeks ago they were showering praises on him while burying Fernandez, this week it's the opposite, where do we get these morons.. Chelsea cannot expect to have or keep super star players with their wage structure, it's self defeating really, how do you attract or keep the best at those wages. Osimen is not coming to Chelsea after the great season he is having with those wage, who would?
You can’t lie you just cannot blame nkunku if I was him I would leave (no bias) aswell as Felix maresca favours Madueke and palmer who are having stinkers recently but he doesn’t change them until the 90th minute
No offense but he can go Lol. He has no hold up play, can't beat players, can't turn defenders. We sub him on and he jogs around and has no ability or desire to press (just like Felix) while the rest of the team that's been playing for 80 minutes more than him are pressing like their lives depend on it. Is he a better goal scorer than Jackson ? Absolutely! But My oh my. He leaves a lot to be desired. I want him in the first team too, but it's frustrating when you see he clearly doesn't put much effort in hold up play, being a target man, turning his defenders, or even pressing the goal keeper which is the bare minimum. He's not a striker and it's not really his fault. No need to change who he is. Better for him to leave
Should have played NKunku against Arsenal instead of Palmer Palmer has been crap against Liverpool, man utd and Arsenal . Jackson is average need to find places for NKunku and fekix
Too often relying on Jackson even though he's clearly sometimes good, sometimes not, try giving him playing minutes from the start nkunku..Maybe it could be a difference

In games where Cole is getting marked out (like yesterday), surely we’d be better off playing him on the right where he can’t be followed all game and playing Nkunku through the middle as a 10.
Simple bro. Simple. I've been saying the same thing all the while
I still think Nkunku is our best finisher. Jackson needs a rest. He’s done well, but we can rotate. Nkunku is fit and ready!
but we do rotate, it just so happens that nkunku's rotation comes in the midweek games, which he doesnt like. Plenty of strikers have to play weekends and midweek. Jackson gets more rest than many elite strikers
I don’t get why maresca doesn’t want to give nkunku a chance but just under 10 minutes of game time whilst Madueke gets to jog around the pitch
Probably trying to build some chemistry and consistency, but clearly Madueke is not it. In hope Neto benches him for good, unless we try Cole on RW and Nkunku as CAM with Neto/Mudryk on LW
They're not interchangeable.
madueke is far better defensively.
Because he’s not a right winger? So dumb what a casual
Selling Nkuku will be a major mistake. Personally I would start him ahead of Jackson. If we have an injury upfront and Nkuku is sold that will cost us. Nkuku is a proven finisher, Jackson is not there yet and may never get to the level of finishing that Nkuku has accomplished.

Then play him
@@isaiahbitei3878 okay i will play him next match you have my word👌🏻

In attack this makes the most sense right now for the players we have
Jackson
Nkunku
Neto Palmer James
Lavia Caicedo
Cucu Colwill Fofana
Sanchez
Nah. If we sell him he needs to go outside England. I have zero interest in watching him go to MU and cook. Send him to France, or back to Germany.
If u think he's not good enough then don't fear selling him to Epl
@@isaiahbitei3878 OK but that's the opposite of what I said. I rate him, therefore I want him to go to some other league if he's leaving.
@@isaiahbitei3878 No one *EVER* said that🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️
If Maresco thinks Sanchez is a great goalkeeper then why the hell is he not putting Christopher on the pitch? Makes no sense. Whatsoever 🤬
😂😂😂😂😂 love that zoom in on the David Coot story. Brilliant. 😂😂😂
Bench Madueke, Neto on the right and Nkunku on the left. To be the top scorer and get 10 minutes playing time in the league must be very difficult

@@BotanicDuck an I guess you haven’t look at Nkunku through out his career. He can play from left or as a second striker

What... He has played as a winger in Chelsea and he wasn't good at all.
He s either as a 10 or a false 9 or whatever this BS is called.
Chukwaamaka looked good in his last match, he offers something different, I wish we'd keep him
Loving the intro, keep up the good work yannick
The fact that Felix doesn’t get chance also
Lmfaooo gangsters greet in namaste 😂😂😂😂😂 lmaooooooo

🤦♂️ they'll go for Samu and I don't care but No thanks it's either Osimhen or nothing. So I rather keep nkunku.

parmer on the right neto on the left and nkunku behind jackson, thank me later!
no Jacson should be benched we dont need a striker
I’ve always seen Nkunku ending up at Bayern
Bayern does need him. They got Musiala and Olise.
For me Mkunku must stay. We will face many low blocks teams and this player will be needed, in fact for me should be used more frequently
Nkunku ain’t going nowhere. COYB 💙

I'll be gutted if N'Kunku leaves as he' a perfect Chelsea player and is top quality. Enzo also needs to sub Palmer off more when he's not affecting the game. Give him 70's mins and swap for Felix. There's no point in having this incredible depth in our squad if we don't use it, and leave on struggling players who can't get into the game.
Wesley was so close to a Thiago Silva esk moment against the Arse it was insane he’s only going one way atm and it’s up.
Bro please stop with the Sanchez hate it a position that every mistake could cost the whole game at this level he’s only young as a keeper and consistently produces saves Kepa would let in EVERY TIME
WE NEED VICTOR IN JAN AND WE COULD WIN THIS SEASON THE FUTURE IS BLUE 💙 KTBFFH
Nkunku is and always was a Timo Werner signing he’s potential is awesome but the reality is the same let him join whoever he’s a profile of player identified way before the current project move him on and reinvest he’s got something just not the something we need
Please loan Madueke cos he is still young n need to learn n give nkuku chance in the team
Let's get our money back on Nkunku, he's a proppa sicknote. Can use that money and big money wages on someone who isn't knackered and could improve the first team. Sell him off and bring in Oshimen probably the outcome of this rumour
Yannick bro Palmer as the RW doesn’t mean he’s going to be a touchdown winger, he’ll be in the same spaces if not more with Reece James providing width for crosses
Lavia is great for defensive work but not a great passer.
Jackson is more of a nuisance to defenders, with his pace and dribbling ability but Nkunku is more of a „give me the ball in the box or in the edge of the box and watch the net“ player. That’s the difference between the two. He is an elite finisher but lacks that dirty game that Jackson brings. On the other hand Jackson lacks that elite finishing that Nkunku has. I feel like it’s all on the manager to decide the type of game and player he wants to have
Yes please sell him! And noni. It's a never ending cycle with Chelsea fans. "Start ziyech 😡 omg how you expect mudryk to improve if you don't give him minutes 😡 even tho we have palmer nkunku felix, somehow magically fit chukeuemeka in the team 😡 "
Being in the team shouldn't mean handing out minutes just because you exist 🤫
60 mil to man utd and we buy victor for 60 perfect 👌
Unc doesn't like Mudryk
you guys making this nkunku situation a issue... jackson is doing well so he play, nkunku get is chance in the conference league and he's scoring too, but his work rate is locking... anyone want to leave let them leave no regret.
We'd be mad to let him go.
I cringe when you talk about what Santos did in thr under 20 Brazil side, under 20s playing against under 20s south American sides lets just wait till he plays with big boys and then judge, also please don't forget we have Willian and Paez to come, Estevao fills me with excitement but again it's a big boy league to move into. Keep it up Yan, best and most enjoyably objective 😊Chelsea channel.
During games where its minute 60 past you don't see much from jackson. I just don't get how nkunku doesn't come on and get more gametime, even palmer when he needs to be subbed off we either keep him on or sub him very late, maresca needs to be more brave especially in these big games. We're learning, were improving but i would not sell nkunku
Cut to the chase: after 11 games is Nkunku better (more productive) than Jackson or Guiu in the minutes played and opportunities given? In the games when Jackson is not effective enough, why doesn't Maresca give other an equal opportunity?
nkunku needs to wind his neck in and wait his chance, not our fault he was injured all season last year
Nkunku can go but not to United
And if we choose to sell Osimhen is a Must!!!!
No mate Nkunku is a £75M player. Why not make money on him?
Why did coote think it wouldnt get out he must of known the person recording it would of released it
How arrogant are Chelsea fans that we would rather try to make it work with an underperforming underworking madueke just for English headlines instead of the obvious answer being nkuku need to start in the prem games. Palmer Enzo and nkuku should be on the field at all times to start.
when Jackson and Palmer are not performing as they have not been recently , Felix and Nkunku should be put on the pitch in their place. The problem with our fans is that they expect every player to score a hat trick or three assists every game, now these nincompoops are after Lavia for a subpar game when two weeks ago they were showering praises on him while burying Fernandez, this week it's the opposite, where do we get these morons.. Chelsea cannot expect to have or keep super star players with their wage structure, it's self defeating really, how do you attract or keep the best at those wages. Osimen is not coming to Chelsea after the great season he is having with those wage, who would?
So what profile of midfielder do we think Caicedo needs?
I'd take 67k for Christopher Nkuku no regrets
If he's not good enough for a weak Chelsea team then he won't cost more than 39 M
You can’t lie you just cannot blame nkunku if I was him I would leave (no bias) aswell as Felix maresca favours Madueke and palmer who are having stinkers recently but he doesn’t change them until the 90th minute
No offense but he can go Lol. He has no hold up play, can't beat players, can't turn defenders. We sub him on and he jogs around and has no ability or desire to press (just like Felix) while the rest of the team that's been playing for 80 minutes more than him are pressing like their lives depend on it. Is he a better goal scorer than Jackson ? Absolutely!
But My oh my. He leaves a lot to be desired. I want him in the first team too, but it's frustrating when you see he clearly doesn't put much effort in hold up play, being a target man, turning his defenders, or even pressing the goal keeper which is the bare minimum. He's not a striker and it's not really his fault. No need to change who he is. Better for him to leave
Bench Noni
Nkunku starting 9
Nico left Neto right
Triple N alongside Palmer.
Cucurella didn’t get Williams ahead of him but he could still have a Nico ahead of him.
Just move palmer to RW the cam being his best position argument is stupid the cam position is too easy to mark out the game
Should have played NKunku against Arsenal instead of Palmer Palmer has been crap against Liverpool, man utd and Arsenal . Jackson is average need to find places for NKunku and fekix
Maybe if he played NKunku as 2nd striker to Jackson might have done well
If we qualify for Champions League, Nkuku is going nowhere.
Between the lines is not 2nd striker it’s where Palmer does his best work boss. Learn about football
Too often relying on Jackson even though he's clearly sometimes good, sometimes not, try giving him playing minutes from the start nkunku..Maybe it could be a difference
60m for nkunku we get osimen with that 60m .everyone is happy 😂
