I think many of you must have seen this video already but I think it just goes to show how awful Fofana has been for us. I watched the Newcastle game and he was endlessly frustrating there as well.
Thiago Silva who’s known as one of the greatest defenders of his generation.
Vs Wes Fofana who’s played about 25 games in his life

Hands out wide. Blaming his team mates giving up on the half way line.
What’s the point of him.

Comparing a 25 year old bum who’s been in the prem for 5 years and still has sub 90 appearences to one of the greatest CB’s of the past generation is certainly a choice.
EDIT: I mean’t in their work ethic.
Fofana’s an Idiot.

What about lady Garnacho?

Fofana looks like an awful low effort dude. A coach with balls would have rip him apart and rightfully so.

Got people here said don’t compare a legend to fofana.
Bro, do players need to be a legend to unlock running instead of just jogging? Fucking hell fofana

Simply not good enough. This guy has been stealing a living off that FA cup final game. Wes, Tosin, Badia all need to be binned this summer.

So he’s basically Chalobah level but on double the wages and over £70m in fees
This recruitment team is shocking

Fofana is a bum. In his entire Chelsea career, I have never had a moment where I thought he could be something. He looked best with Colwil by his side, but that says more about Colwil than him. I can forgive lack of quality, I absolutely loathe lack of effort. Get this wheelchair enthusiast to Marseille like he wants to so bad.

I also don’t understand why James goes from Willock’s left shoulder, to is right at the last second.
If James keeps pushing and keeps to Willock’s left, he cuts off the passing lane for the tap in, or at least makes that pass a more pressured ball.
Let Sanchez deal with the near post and cut off the passing lane for the higher percentage chance.

Comes from the top. There’s no fear factor at the club anymore.
It’s fine to lose, it’s fine to give away shitty goals. All part of the ‘learning process’.
Chelsea are just soft now. Hard to stomach, but that’s the reality.

How did this guy cost 70m lol

Just a reminder Clearlake didn’t want to give him a new contract and let him go. Meanwhile Thiago has been with 2 different clubs till then and is there best CB
Past-Maintenance06 on
Again. All this shit could have been avoided, if the club actually brought a defender. How much of an idiot do you have to be, to put your faith in the current cbs. Was obvious from the start of the season.
Might end up costing CL.
EDIT: if you play as Chelsea in any simulator, the first area you strengthen is the defence.

Silva was available, Milan got him. Milan in the race for Scudetto.
And we have to see criminals like Chalobah and Fofana.

If fofana sprints at 100% he’d be out for 4 months after. He’s symbolic of the entire shambles that is the current project.

We need a complete overhaul of the CB position and having spent all the money we have that’s just shocking

Shockingly awful defending and effort.
I’ve seen some folks attribute it to his fasting, which is complete bullshit. Kante fasted and we never once had to doubt his effort, and frankly if fasting affects your professional effort in a job that pays as obscenely as this one then perhaps you shouldn’t be fasting (or if that’s unacceptable, you should be unemployed).

This was hugely damning I just hope this is brought up to him by the coaching team he needs to be held accountable there is no excuse for this and he should be dropped. If Sanchez and Jorgensen have been dropped after bad performances he should be too.
I actually get pissed off thinking about Fofana bro. Get him in the bomb squad
ad1don on
This is a guy who speeds on a motorway hard shoulder in his Lambo to get where he’s going. He gets a suspended sentence. Yet he has no urgency to stop a goal in his day job. Hes a bum and laughs as he’s getting red cards. The courts let him get away with it, his club let him get away with it.
Everyone waiting for Colwill yet he’s absolutely god awful. Absence makes the heart grow fonder. Go listen to podcasts and commentary when he actually plays, he’s a bum also and has a stinking attitude.
As everyone keeps saying for years now, need a new cb and goalkeeper. We are getting carved up right now and the manager needs to rip up these dumb tactics and start again. We are too shaky in possession, we only work as a counter attack press. Unfortunately word from the top is that they know better so you will only see Marescaball with a slight tweaking. LR is not able to change anything as head coach.
LittleBlueCubes on
It’s not a matter of ability (hence no point in referring to his age) but a matter of skill and mentality. One, Fofana is ball watching and two, he’s sure that the goal will be scored without considering the possibility of a cut back to Gordon who’s running past him. He’s neither zone marking or man marking – what is he doing?
EstevaosJesusPiece on
One played with Chalobah. The other didn’t. That’s the difference.
People acting like Silva wouldn’t tear Chalobah a new one. Silva knew he could trust his partner, whether it be Rudiger, Badiashile, or Christensen. Fofana doesn’t have that privilege
BadCogs on
Wasn’t worth the money when we bought him, even apart from injury. Good at aggressiveness, failure in many other things. But people glazed the signing then. Still talk if he is some sort of Terry, dude has shown not even half of that in reality.
But under Clearlake we are supposed to settle for this, this is our ceiling.
