In today’s Chelsea video, I break down JOÃO FÉLIX and how his football career so far has left many teams and managers unsure on how to get the best out of him. Aston Villa have been heavily linked with JOÃO FÉLIX in the January transfer window. Will JOÃO FÉLIX sign for Aston Villa? Will Enzo Maresca be able to find a way to get the best out of JOÃO FÉLIX at Chelsea?

George sometimes the eye test is much more relevant against stats. Take Jadon Sancho for example, he’s had the assists this season but he’s playing as a LW and he CANNOT take on absolutely nobody. Please watch him closely and you will notice that he does not provide what we need from a winger which is to take on full backs and defenders and get in the box.
All on THE YES MAN,refuses to change it, sends out the players to play the same way, FFS try Palmer on the right and Felix or Nkunku at 10
Maresca is just dumb. He ain't that good.
We keep looking at this team as tho we will be in the same competitions next season, once we stay in the top 5 it's Europa or Champions League. So players will be playing better teams and the the B team will turn in to the A- team 😂😂. 🇹🇹💯
Those numbers dont matter. We all know Felix finishing need work but hes very good at other things. Hes worldclass at dribbling and creativity. He should play in the middle and Palmer to the right.
Especially since Maresca have a problem with Noni. So why not play Palmer there?
And why would half the squad put in effort and try to save this bald frauds ass when they get game tid when he clearly has shown he dont rate them?
I have checked out for the rest of season. We wont get top4.
I also belive hes started to lose the dressroom.
And Im also conviced he does not know his best starting eleven.
But its good that hes stubborn. That will get him the sack.
I was one of the guys willing to give Potter more time cuz he was dealt a really bad hand and set up to fail.
However with this guy my patience is gone.
Even the donkey Poch saw how shit the goalie was and that Enzo and Caicedo cant play together. Thats why he started to play Gallagher and Caicedo.
Chelsea fc Coach and sporting directors are a bunch of confused people, infact if u tell me Joa Felix is not that good then you dont really know your own player
Quite simply put George, the lad is overrated. Sell him. He's just a lightweight dribble merchant who dives when someone breathes on him. He'd be better suited to Serie A.
Not even kidding… I’d start Felix at the 10 and put Palmer back on RW. Felix is creative enough to play there and it might be harder for opponents to clusterf*** Palmer if he doesn’t play through the middle. You can say he hasn’t produced much, but it’s hard to build form when you’re playing as infrequently as he is. Give it a shot for a few games in a row and see how it goes, it’s not like whatever we’re doing right now is working at all
Felix only has 365 PL minutes. I think only 2 starts, so most of it he’s coming on after 80 minutes and hardly involved. If he had Cole Palmer minutes his season stats would average out to 6 goals 6 assists. I think it comes down to lack of opportunities. Felix is quality.
Maresca can't utilize Felix because he is a championship manager that would rather draw a game than risk loosing doesn't matter if the opposition is Luton or Southampton playing a low block.
From a 1-1 position Maresca would rather rotate Gust, Cucarella and Disasi in the 80th minute than play Felix and give Palmer a break.
Felix is a damn good player, the problem is the coach, Maresca is shortsighted, someone who rejected petrovic for Sanchez,
This is the first time I told myself that your video doesn’t make any sense. If you gime me all support and minutes continuously I would perform better, if you gime me minutes here and there my performance would be 10x worse. I think you are running agenda against Felix here. Whole video doesn’t make sense. Maresca has got only one plan. If that doesn’t work, we lose, simple as that. Gusto mismanaged nkunku mismanaged felix mismanaged 🤷🏻♂️
How about we scrap No. 9 and play Felix alongside Palmer? Worth a try as our "Striker" doesn't score.
I think Felix needs to start in 7 or 8 games playing for over 75 minutes then we can judge him properly
J Felix deserves more game time , it seems more likely he will leave and be a star in another premier league team , we never give players chances
Play Felix at 10 and stick Palmer on the right. Palmer exploded last season mostly from the right. We can do that again just to make us a bit unpredictable. Selling Felix is a bad idea. What happens when we loose Palmer to injury. Nkunku is already out mentally.
Would he work under Pep at city? I'm just really trying to think of how he fits into any team in Europe. He's even nonexistent for Portugal 🤦♂️ but he clearly does have talent 🤯
You've worked it out 😅😅
Joao felix is so lucky he came on the era of average ball players He should be playing in Benfica till now….he is very average
Go back half a year and I damn well told anyone who'd listen that it was a mistake to buy Felix because he's just not very consistent on end product in the final third, and he doesn't offer the thing that players with less final third output should always provide in abundance, which is workrate in and out of possession. If you cannot consistently score goals then the least you can do is offer some workrate to hopefully free up someone who can score goals.
We sold a player that was a bit meh in the final third but always worked his backside off, who always made the tough runs off the ball, who always busted his guts trying to get back in defense, who never slacked off in his pressing game. And we got a CAM who cannot play striker, midfielder, or winger. And who doesn't really have the production to be a dedicated CAM.
I suppose there was always the hope that he'd see this as his wake-up call, get himself sorted out, and turn into more of a team player with a rather more serious attitude regarding defensive work. Or that he'd finally grow up and use his full range of abilities constructively. In terms of technique and physicality, someone like Bernardo Silva has nothing on Felix. So why Silva is world class and Felix simply not? Because Silva is a smart footballer who mostly makes the right choice at the right time, with minimal ego getting in the way.
Felix is a one-hit wonder. He appears one time and gives the impression that he's the real deal, then he fizzles out into lazy displays.
