I guess (DD aside) the deals have suited all parties, but the Kante price will forever be a sickener I like to think we overcharged them for Drinkwater, and the pandemic/Champions League stopped us from getting a bigger fee for Chilwell. Beating them in the Cup final went home way towards getting justice against them 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arsenal win to get their hopes up when realistically they're struggling for top 10 this year and to peg back Chelsea.

He has nothing else. Sounds like what people said about vardy To say he's just a fast runner and strong is wrong imo. He's a good dribbler.

The difference in quality between the two benches is massive. Aside from Aubameyang Arsenal are severely lacking. They have a team full of singular players you'd like in your team, you just wouldn't field a team full of their players.

He's a good dribbler. In the sense that he is so much faster and stronger than anyone else yes, he can dribble. He's useful enough to have simply for how much he scares defenders, but I was strangely calm seeing him run through us last week. He's an athlete but he isn't a very good footballer, that's my view.

Dan LCFC Posted 22 August 2021 Share Posted 22 August 2021 The Saka clapping is so unbelievably patronising. He's a 20 year old with a potentially great career ahead of him and a genuine talent to boot. Whatever makes people feel better about themselves I guess though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lukaku doesn't have as much finesse as Kane and Lewandowski, but is faster and is more powerful. Already in this game Lukaku is holding it up really well and allowing Mount and Havertz to join the attack, which is something that Werner could never give them. He's in the top 3 out and out strikers in the world along with the other two mentioned, and hence a brilliant signing for Chelsea. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
