Some soccer pundits/journo talking some sense now, and principally, talking a variety of the identical stuff that the majority different pundits, former Chelsea gamers, followers, and most of this neighborhood have been saying for THREE years now. It’s pure madness that it’s continued to be ignored.
Jason Burt of The Telegraph acquired this SPOT ON…
“I feel the largest problem with Chelsea is the squad itself. I imply, it’s that stability inside the squad, recreation administration. You go right down to 10 males yesterday’s recreation, you’re feeling with a pair extra skilled heads within the crew, it shouldn’t occur in opposition to a crew like Burnley that don’t actually carry that a lot of a menace.
“However it was like a swap being flicked, as soon as they went right down to 10 males, it simply modified every part. An skilled crew, or a crew that’s a prime crew doesn’t let that occur. Virtually like a ten man factor doesn’t change into a problem. Then they simply regroup and regather and so they go once more.”
It’s actually that straightforward. Have some high quality ‘older heads’ on the pitch speaking to these round them, protecting them calm, motivated, and in the proper mentalities, is actually solely going to assist. Burt mentions stability, and once more, it’s actually that. How can anybody see something fallacious with having BALANCE with something in life? Particularly in a soccer crew.
I all the time preferred watching Owen Hargreaves play soccer, I assumed he was technically excellent. His profession was hounded by accidents sadly, in any other case he may have been one thing particular.
As a pundit, I don’t all the time agree with him, however he’s fairly respectable principally.
Owen Hargreaves: “You already know what, Chelsea aren’t even a nasty crew, some groups again within the day had been correctly nasty, acquired nasty crimson playing cards, they’re all fairly foolish crimson playing cards those they’ve.
“I feel it’s inexperience. Once more, it goes again to recruitment. They spent a lot cash on this squad, they’ve acquired some good attacking gamers.
“The centre-back place and the goalkeeper they should tackle, you want expertise in there. You assume that they had Thiago Silva, the most effective and so they simply let him go at no cost.
“They’ve acquired all these gifted younger gamers, however I don’t assume having simply younger gamers within the centre-back place is the proper choice.”
SAY IT LOUDER, Owen. They aren’t listening to us, nonetheless. Sigh. It’s OK although, as a result of sooner or later quickly, all these younger gamers will ultimately be skilled gamers. We’ll get there… 😅
