Where did I say he’s a better midfielder?
Probably not the best time to play this card given so far this season Pulisic has done well at Milan while Rashford has effectively been playing RB your opponents.
I appreciate the enthusiasm. 9pts off 5th doesn’t sound like a disaster. But it’s also a tall ask. United are 4pts off 5th and I don’t think there is much optimism in here. It isn’t just the 9pts, it’s also the teams you have between you and 5th. United, Newcastle and Villa. You only need one of those three teams to keep their shit together and have a good remainder of the season, and 5th is out of reach for you. To get 5th, from such a deficit, Chelsea will have to be really consistent. Something we just haven’t seen.
I mean that isn't true at all. It was no more than the first 15 mins, 20 mins at a stretch. We had gained a foothold in the game and by the time we saw the first red card we were well on top. Had two disallowed goals and a huge chance for Jackson. Outside of their lucky deflected goal and the disallowed goal, Spurs created nothing despite being on top the early parts of the game.
You've spent 1 and a half billion and your best player is a Chelsea reject.
"Stop! He's already dead!"
zinger
What a counter attack!
(Gary Neville voice) Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Ollie Watkins, Ivan Toney and Calvert Lewin
No shame in being rejected by Mourinho, who has proven many a time that he has the talent ID skills of an artichoke.
Did he forge all the necessary signatures to enable the transfer? Or what it done at gunpoint?
That would make every transfer their ex-club's reject.
He joined Man City at under-8 level. Kinda harsh to blame any scouts on this one.
Oh aye absolutely, just wondering if anyone had any knowledge re his background with him namechecking United players as idols in an interview! Being relatively local I know that since the takeover City have grabbed loads of the kids in the area so not really surprising tbf.
We sold Musiala for 180k … we take rejecting massive talents seriously here at Chelsea.
We didn't sell him, his parents divorced and he decided to move back to Germany with his mum who is from there.
Well, argue with your charger
That's not how City do things, otherwise Leroy Sane, Ferran Torres and Joao Cancelo would still be here.
Weghorst was awful whenever he played, just as bad in midfield as forward. He offered zero goal threat. He couldnt win headers or knockdowns. Whatever you think of Mount, Weghorst looked like he had rarely played professional football before.
