No point in signing Felix, you guys are amazing
Bro looks like trossard 😭
Keep it up ESPN fc
Who is this buffoon with the glasses
stevie's christmas pic is the funniest thing i've seen on this show, keep it up
Robo is fire but Ashley Cole is the🐐
Felix would play well in england. As it's a downgrade from laliga.
Ashley Cole was the best left back ever!!
Felix at Chelsea? Nah not feeling that at all. We have players in the 23s I wanna see playing first before even thinking about buying Felix. I pass on him, there is much much better players within the club that deserve a chance and tbh couple years back Felix looked decent but hasn't improved at all
Miss leading title. He is joining United.
Chelsea need player like Felix those who oppose that doesn't know anything about football
Joao Felix to Barcelona
Sell Depay and Torres
Felix Lewa Dembele
Chelsea signing Felix sorry
What question is that, he is top player and can fit anywhere
Leighton Baines is better the Robbo
Did Stevie honestly say he thinks Gakpo will play CM?? Stevie literally doesn't have a clue.
Chelsea should go for Aboubakar ❤
Diaz returns…where would gakpo play…next doubt is who would cover for salah…no backup for salah…must should cover the right wing
Re " Gakpo": guess he can play as a no.10 with Nunez and Salah playing further fwd ahead of him? It's not dissimilar with what Firmino has been doing (vis a vis Mane & Salah)?
Re "Joao Felix": is another Havertz, Mount, Pulisic etc etc? Who is scoring the goals? 😝😝
Re "Salah v. Dalglish": quantitatively, Salah scored plenty, but it's hard inside my mind Salah is better than Dalglish? 🤔🤔
My concern with felix, is more to do with we're getting so many younger players, I personally would want to get another forward with experience, someone like depay or neymar who can score and create. In midfield if sure go for some younger player's, but we have a combination of exp there, I feel with forwards (strikers more specifically), we have broja, auba and getting ddf I'd want someone with a bit more experience, slightly less than auba, who maybe hasn't had the best time in the prem, but can develop in the prem. Felix would probably be an upgrade on a few players, but I want someone who still feels as though they need to do something in the prem and prove themselves, depay would be my first choice, I'd still take neymar on the wing or in midfield though.
As a spurs fan with bias against him for clubs he plaid for know1 comes close to Ashley Cole as best left back in prem – id say begin himself better left back for Liverpool than Robertson altho that was before prem
Chelsea are a terrible fit for talented players who suffer from periodic dips in form based on confidence. Definitely not a good signing.
Ashley Cole is the best LB of all time. Undisputed
As a fan im getting fed up with us buying cam type players. We have mount pulisic havertz ziyech and now add felix? Ik that some of the players can play in different positions but all these guys play best in a free cam role
Chelsea needs Dumphries/ Leao/ Bellingham & release Mount/ Sterling/ Pulisic. Players who fight for 90 minutes + play team football
How are you forgetting Ashley Cole uneducated pundits
No. Chelsea needs players that can create chances as well. There is currently zero creativity in their midfield. Good strikers need good suppliers. They shouldn't have to run the entire length of the pitch.
Stevie clearly doesn't know Gakpo
Stevie with the cockney calling Dan Porkie Pie 😂
He will not, we do not have a proper striker. Having this many second strikers does not change anything.
Frank: oooooooohhhhhhh
Ohhhhhhhhhhhh🤣🤣🤣🤣
Interesting
I'll tell you something for nothing, even if Robertson is a better left back than Stevie, Stevie was better at every single other position
Picture of Stevie is a classic
"The Dan Thomas school of porky pies" haha
Craig took the words right out of my mouth when looking at Stevies picture….. looks like hes giving birth 🤣😂
7:20 In case you wanted to hear Stevie say Dungarees again 😂
At Chelsea I don't see Felix doing any better than Pulisic. Not the best fit.
We seriously need a good center forward.
Auba is there
But what about Aubameyang? It's nothing personal right?
