Joao Pedro as good as Harry Kane?! Chelsea boss Liam Rosenior puts in-form striker in same ‘category’ as England hitman, Erling Haaland & Kylian Mbappe

As good? Absolutely not. Could be as good as..? Maybe

Very good player.
I do think Rosenior is far too like Brendan Rodgers at times.
Doing a decent job but just relax getting carried away.
Long way to go for Pedro. Needs a few years performing at a high level for Chelsea to be compared to Kane or Haaland

Clearly Pedro is not that good but fair play to Liam, he’s building his striker’s confidence.

He’s a very good player but that’s a wild comparison.

If I were his manager I’d say the same so I don’t fault Rosenior for saying this.
But as a neutral person obviously no he’s not close lol

Not what he said. How do you post this with any self respect?

He was asked if Pedro is in the top bracket of strikers, his own player, what’s he meant to say
“I talk about my players; it’s disrespectful to Erling [Haaland] to compare them. I don’t know Erling very well, but from the outside he looks a magnificent, world‑class striker. I wouldn’t swap Joao for anyone at this moment – he is showing all the qualities and attributes I want to see.
“The great thing for Joao is his age – he can still improve, and I’ve already noticed several areas where he can get better. But the level he’s operating at now is world class, and it’s my job, the club’s job and his job to keep him there.”

Dumb question but can’t blame a manager for bigging up his own players

Good player but crazy take. Just manager hyping his player and nothing wrong with that. Must say Pedro is playing well. Not seen someone cause Gabs and Saliba issues for a while

I mean strikers are ego warriors.
Stoke that thing.
Yeah, no.

No one agrees with him
He has surely aged that man well
