He was a very good footballer. I blame Chelsea for ruining his progress and confidence, and his agent for allowing him to move to a club that was totally unsuited to him. Had he moved to, for example, Villa, Everton, West Ham, he would have had a great career and might still be playing.
I think anyone who stopped his progress was him really, at the time when he came to Chelsea. He had kante, bakayoko , fabgregas and even RLC he was getting games and due to how lazy he was and injury prone conte stopped using him and preferably went with caec and kante in the mid , season that followed was even worse bro made 1 appearance… on the bench and injured majority of the season its not like we didn’t want him to play he would have thrived under sarri with sarri ball , but blud wasn’t available , Chelsea are to blame as well to some degree knowing it was a high risk low reward, scouts should have known he was injury prone.
Trust me Drinkwater isn't even in top 3 worst signings for chelsea. They literally paid 97 mil quid for a player who spoke shit in an interview against them, and they loaned him out AGAIN just after one season and are still paying a portion of his wages 💀 Signings do not get much worse than Lakaka
Tbh lukaku was just being deployed as a meathead finisher at Chelsea which didn’t suit his style at all. It was unprofessional for him to talk shit against his club but I’d be pissed too if I was effectively forced away from my dream club to play tuchel’s snoozeball. It was inevitable he’d do shite when whether lukaku performs basically comes down to how he’s feeling on the day
Tbf Tuchel seems to love turning the dressing room against him and not being dynamic enough with his tactics to accommodate who he has not just what he wants to do
This is a terrible take he is not a flop just unfortunate that he couldn’t find fitness and game time his style of play was also very specific and most coaches should be ashamed not getting the best out of him
The disrespect… him and Kante dominated that midfield and he was running as if he had infinite stamina and ran and ran across the pitch every match every corner of the pitch covered. He was amazing. IMO one of the most underrated players in that squad.
@@Satanblame Lol, that is a bad take. Mudryk's incredibly raw but as things stand he cost almost half what Lukaku did and still has every chance to succeed (came into a side that isn't playing particularly well after he hadn't played football for several months and at this point still hasn't even played a full season ffs 🤦♂)
@@gazatremendous2683 Then you're a clown because he was a good servant for the club. Never went missing, even when he was being scapegoated for the team's shortcomings, and he was a leader in the dressing room for sure. I wasn't always his biggest fan, but imo his biggest issue was that he was very one dimensional and didn't always suit the style/formation were playing.
He was even loaned to Kasımpaşa, a low-mid table team in Turkey at some point and he wasn't good enough for start in the XI. This guy's downfall in unbelieveable.
Saying he's a flop cause he got 1 goal in 22 games is like saying Kante would've been a flop if he got 1 goal in 22 games. Drinkwater wasn't an attacking player. He took up a more defensive role especially at Chelsea.
He was an attacking midfielder at Leicester, Andy King was more defensive than Drinkwater drinkwater had one of the highest assists that season, when we won the title. Chelsea signed him and messed his career up.
Chelsea signed him because they needed an English homegrown player to meet the leagues quota. They thought putting him back with Kante would be a good idea
@@TheThreatenedSwan I have more stats on Jorginho than you can imagine at Chelsea his 7 assists in 6 seasons 23 goals 21 from the penalty spot + he lost 85% of the 50/50 duels on pitch I can go on but I’ll employ you to type in CZcams Jorginho mistake plural and see multiples to choose from then get back to me
@@gazatremendous2683 So despite the set backs he is still far better than Drinkwater? Despite his lackluster defensive abilities, it's his marginal utility to a team that matters same reason why there are players in top teams who can't run or dribble
He already said it on a video that he had family problems pop up and that’s part of why he had to just quit. Makes no sense putting someone who’s down further down.
Drinkwater isn’t there worst signing as it only cost Chelsea 35million, how much did they blow on Lukaku ? Or Caicedo ? What about letting Salah and de bruyne leave, yes didn’t cost as much but a big missed opportunity
plus your mom also is a flop for chelsea cause they paid her to get fucked by all the chelsea players but unfortunately she got a weird asshole that too many men had put their dick in it without your father's knowledge!
Not the worst to be Frank. In terms of expectations, Torres really disappointed terribly. So did Shevchenko as well. Another signing in Mateja Kezman who was expected to be really prolific also was a huge disappointment. Tel Ben Haim, Asier Del Horno, Timo Werner, Romelu Lukaku, Adrian Mutu also adds to a long line of big flops
he is a midtable team player, his biggest mistake was agreeing to go to a club where he will have no chance to prove himself, his confidence got shattered in Chelsea. should have stayed in Leicester but didn't.
Seriously, this is the hill you want to die on.... So Torres from Liverpool to Chelsea was a much bigger flop, and an even bigger one, Adrien Mutu being the genuine worst signing probably in the entire premier league. And was eventually ordered to pay chelsea 18mil
Drink-water wasn't a flop but a victim of bad coaching cycle in Chelsea clip by abramovic. He wasn't accorded game time. Actually he was the best positioned no6
Many people said Chelsea ruined his career while in reality, he done it himself. He’s in my view, one of the most unmotivated mid talented player ever grace the Premier League soil.
Wait, he really retired from football, omg 😱 All this time I think maybe he plays in clubs from Turkey or maybe in the Bundesliga. Damn that’s so awful

Nowhere near the worst signing
Lukaku
Crespo
Mutu
Bakayoko
The list goes on 😂😂😂
Jorginho
Winning the epl with Leicester is absolutely legendary…❤
This is so disrespectful to Winston Bogarde
😂😂😂
I do agree on this,,
Followed by bakayoko
Do hazard to real Madrid
I agree a waste of money 💴
And even sadder for him, he missed out on a Champion's League because he was on loan at Kasimpasa💀
Lavia is trying to get this record from him😂
You forgot his drink driving and off field antics
I think he didn't drink enough water.
Nowhere near Chelsea’s worst ever signing, Shevchenko’s price tag after inflation would be £220m+ today
Drinkwater isn’t there worst signing as it only cost Chelsea 35million, how much did they blow on Lukaku ? Or Caicedo ? What about letting Salah and de bruyne leave, yes didn’t cost as much but a big missed opportunity
How is letting salah and de bruyne a signing? Lukaku was bad but he did atleast something. Caicedo also has potential.

Not always down to the players yes thats alot of money and sometimes you do feel like you have to play to it but it's also down to the managers

Danny “Drink Water” 💀
That injury must have been something else
You have the courage to call someone the biggest flop😂😂
The day I heard my friend say that there was a player named drinkwater I was baffled
caicedo is chelsea's worst signing
“WHAT A GOAL FROM DRINKWATER HOLY DRINKWATER IS SPECIAL”
But that 1 goal was an absolute banger tbh
Not the worst to be Frank. In terms of expectations, Torres really disappointed terribly. So did Shevchenko as well.
Another signing in Mateja Kezman who was expected to be really prolific also was a huge disappointment.

If you're called Danny Drinkwater you are destined to fail 😂😂
Won the league with Leicester. That's enough success for a lifetime.
He is a premier league winner what about you?🙂

@xtreme_brighton The sad truth
Bro shut up he won the premier league thats more you will ever achieve and btw your not funny bully so get lost
Marko marin is right up there for bad signings for Chelsea.
Let’s not forget Winston Bogarde!
I had a friend called Bevelleaqua we called him drink water, water, then water boy, now his bobby bushé
never understood why they signed him, our midfield was already stacked
Us Leicester fans call him Danny Benchwarmer 😂
he is a midtable team player, his biggest mistake was agreeing to go to a club where he will have no chance to prove himself, his confidence got shattered in Chelsea.
should have stayed in Leicester but didn't.
Danny drank his career away, funny how that works with that laste name 😅..
lol, got beat 4-2 today by Wolves, this has aged well. This team couldn’t lace Drinkwaters boots, he’s got a premier title after all.
He should've stayed drink water to keep him hydrated
It was a bad time for Chelsea, yet they didn't trust him. He played better than Bakayoko and still he was rarely on the starting eleven.
Someone hasn't heard of Winston Bogarde
you know your bad when *burnley* terminates your loan contract 😭😭
Torres would beg to differ, actually i doubt he would but hes got my vote
Lukaku was a worse signing for Chelsea. Way more money and way more expectations just for him to disrespect the club and Tuchel for no reason.
In 5 years you’re going to be able to do this with half of Chelsea’s squad from this season
Seriously, this is the hill you want to die on.... So Torres from Liverpool to Chelsea was a much bigger flop, and an even bigger one, Adrien Mutu being the genuine worst signing probably in the entire premier league. And was eventually ordered to pay chelsea 18mil

"Rice"
"Stones"

To be fair I can understand the reasoning behind the signing it’s just that injury he had wrecked his career
In 2018 me and my mates used to laugh at his name
Didn’t he kick some u19 Tottenham player or was that a different one of our flops
