Chelsea release new kit - not good enough with no sponsor Chelsea clear out deadwood - not good enough, too slow. Chelsea sign Jackson - not good enough Chelsea discussing Caicedo deal with no leaks - not good enough too slow. Chelsea have 2 sponsors lined up that fall through - not good enough Chelsea sign emerging talent from South America - not good enough, not first team players …………………………. OR ………………………………… Chelsea release amazing kit, with great 90’s reference and captivating lead up. Chelsea manage to halve wage bill, get rid of players who don’t want to be here and clear bloated squad in record time Nicolas Jackson looks like an exciting player, let’s see how he goes in pre season. Chelsea being intelligent in the transfer market and don’t want to get into a bidding war. Chelsea had an unbelievable deal with Paramount lined up but the PL got cold feet, not our fault. Chelsea finally unearthing young talent that prevents us from having to buy them in 3 years time for 10x the price. It’s optics. You can choose to kick the club you support, or you can choose to support them and understand context in every situation. Ultimately the choice is yours but this is an new era and it’s time to put the past behind us and try and see the positives that are happening at the moment. New manager, new team and new season ahead.

📊🇪🇸 Chema Andrés, data report 💬 a potential unicorn disruptor + genuinely staggering oop numbers, especially when you control for Stuttgart's 59% possession + he and prime Real Madrid Casemiro are the only two midfielders in T5 leagues with 8+ 'possession adjusted' interceptions and a 60%+ defensive duel win rate in a season + everything points to him being an 'intelligent' defender; selective dueler with a high win rate, above average number of fouls committed, literally 100th percentile for ground-covering/positioning metrics like shot blocks and interceptions + also utterly dominant in the air, especially for his age group; wins duels in the midfield and is a threat from set pieces/crashing the box for a cross with his head + we haven't even talked about his ability on the ball yet... comfortable with a high volume of touches and being a central passing spoke + interesting "high degree of difficulty" passing profile; selective but accurate with long passes, inaccurate but aggressive with his progressives - pretty immobile by u21 midfielder standards... not in a "liable to be dispossessed" way, but he's not driving possession forward with his carrying nor creating angles with 1v1 dribbles - not a crazy knock, but his shot assist volume stat is kind of fake... most of his "key passes" are for low xG chances so not really a creator - crazy small sample but his finishing when arriving late into the box (if not on his head) needs some work ➡️ I forgot how much I'm a fan of his until I started the writeup. Of course Madrid has a cheap buy back that they would be silly not to exercise. We're still pretty limited on the minutes sample but he's shaping up to be like a B+ on the ball and an A++ out of possession disruptor. This profile of holding CM is nearly becoming extinct in football, so his emergence as one of, top options (if not the clear cut) makes him all the more valuable.

Even with Ornstein’s tweet, I still have about 20% faith that Alonso comes.

So basically Xabi Alonso is available, open to coming, but Chelsea needs to convince him more. That’s the gist of these reports. Will Eghbali & the SD’s put their pride away enough to do what’s necessary to get him to come? I doubt it but I sure hope so…

@santitobe Because there would be a direct pathway to Chelsea after. Which might appeal to him 🤷🏽‍♂️

@ArchieStanding Why would Luis take the Strasbourg job? I’m sure he can be a candidate for a Fulham, crystal palace, Bournemouth in the premier league. I’m just curious.

Egbhali has a fantastic opportunity to stop this boat from drowning. Appointing Alonso will appease a large majority of the fanbase and I would imagine the players too. It would also signal a change of approach, which would again give fans hope that they are finally learning. Huge sporting and PR win if they manage to get him over the line. Sadly, I have very little faith.

@MlrPaul2001 @GoldbergCFC If 90% is shit, I am not praising the 10%. Let’s reverse those numbers. You very quickly put the 7/8 good things they have done. What about the 50 other signings/decisions that haven’t been good? You go very quiet on them….

Arsenal have man handled opposition players on corners all season and hardly been penalised. This is such a farce. What about Rice fouling Mavrepanos? I literally hate everything about this club and their fans. The least deserving champions of all time.

Based on the assumption that Chelsea have already bought in: Emegha, Barco, Penders and Quenda next season, what 5 signings would you like to see added to this list: Budget £200 million as I think we will end up selling c. £250 million worth of players and need to make a profit.

Chelsea clearly want Alonso as their number one choice. Chelsea are clearly speaking to Alonso to try and convince him to come. Fallows is clearly having a bigger role in proceedings. Alonso clearly waiting to see what options he has. ——————— If Alonso doesn’t happen, the briefs will be disgusting. My concern is the drop off after Alonso and the names being touted are both different in style (Areola) or simply substandard. Some managers have potential but he seems to be the one available who ticks the most boxes. You slightly feel the only way this happens is if Chelsea finally decided to give more control to the manager. If they do, they have a chance with Alonso. If Alonso doesn’t come, it’s either because Slot leaves or because we are too stubborn to change. Either outcome isn’t good…. Alonso is in a very powerful position right now, hence why he is biding his time. Your move Mr Egbhali…….
