    I think calo is good but also lucky to... remember zidane achieved 4 champ league....so I think he is in the right club that has helped him achieve this. He may not be able to get this achievement with another club easily.

    Mikel, big up brother. But l have to disagree on Poch, he squandered a good chunk of the season busy shooting himself on the foot and it wasn't even the injuries then. The injuries later forced him to settle on a first eleven, which ended benefiting the team.

    This Chelsea fc board decisions keep making me wonder, if you don't allow the manager to buy the kind of player's who fit their plans, how will they execute their plans on ways they play properly, this is destroying the atmosphere of the club, because the players know the manager is not the one in charge, and when the wins don't come, the fans will turn against the coach, this is not a good idea on how run a football club.

  • @ariwiryadi4146
    @ariwiryadi4146 3 месяца назад +2

    It is Chelsea....I couldn't agree more Obi....Whoever in Chelsea MUST have winning mentality in every game whether he/she play or not. I also agree for positions needs to improve,yes jackson is a striker but he didn't score a lot of goal we need, we must spend a lot to sign a "goal guaranted" striker, a couple world class centre back,and a "general" who can control in and off field. I think we could sell disasi as he is not a centre back we need ( too many wrong decisions he made last season,wrong passing,blunder, etc despite he score a goal too).We have wesley fofana and badiashile in the back but that's not enough. I believe mudryk need to treat properly in order to get the best of him, yes he made an improvement under pochetino near of end of last season but i think he can improve a lot next season. We have Datro fofana in striker division but he need more playing time and adjustment before he become a good striker.

    MUdryk's hair is not his problem. It's his confidence after playing under so many managers with bizarre tactics. I think he'll come good and if Chelsea sell him it'll come back to haunt us in a similar way that Sarah and KDB did. I hope we get Osimhen or Alvarez. Regardless of what people think of them or the price involved either would be a massive upgrade for us. Hope we get some of the players we're linked with like Olise, Alphonso Davies, Pickford and De Ligt too, and sell 10 players.

    Please have some sense.
    And if you're going to criticize, at least do it in an objective and structured manner instead of sounding like a novice.
    Talk about Mudryk's defensive inadequacies or his inability to successfully take players one on one -without space.
    Do you even watch football to understand and analyse properly?
    Talmbout cut off the hair and tattoos. As if those are the reasons he isn't playing well consistently.

Ideally push on from a top 4 finish and atleast challenge
