- Chelsea have very large problems to deal with at the moment. From teammates fighting while being 4 goals up, to owners that confuse the faithful support.
And I still don't understand Nicolas Jackson.

HUMILIATION!

To have completely dismantled a champions league winning squad within 3 seasons is crazy.
I thought they dismantled it in 1 season
to be honest, to this day, i still dont understand how or why they won that champions legue.
it's the one champions legue that i just... don't understand.
@@akhsdenlew1861They win it cos they had the best defense in 15 years
@@akhsdenlew1861 Simple, there were no crowds.
As someone not following the Premier League that closely, I am really baffled looking at the squats from the CL final 3 years back and against Arsenal. There is just Thiago Silva left and he turns 40 this year. When and why did this happen and how could anybody expect this to work?
Chelsea is the prime example of not handling your money right
Nah, I think the prime example of that is Barcelona. Although Chelsea is definitely a close second lol.
@@Osama-KIN_TMZ01 nah... barcelona is still relevant , even though considerably weaker than what they used to be.
They still managed to win Laliga against the european champions and the other european champions and it took a ridiculus Red card in order to get knocked out of CL this year...
Getting knocked out by mbappe and losing against real madrid and even making them work for it...Is there really a big shame into those?
Chelsea on the other hand, spends billions.. WAY more than barcelona, only to get placed #10+ in the PL table and take 5 balls from an arsenal that lost to the worst bayern of the decade.
And Btw there is a team in PL that literally spent 100M for freaking antony...You still think that barcelona is the worst?
Chelsea and MU definetly worse than barcelona... Barcelona at least has the masia, so they will always be Kinda relelvant.
@@akhsdenlew1861 I think you might need to do some research on Barca's situation lad, because you clearly don't know how deeply rooted it is. Barca is still relevant because they literally NEED to, just to save themselves from complete bankruptcy as they gambled the next 25 years of their club for that. They sold major percentage of the club's future and mix that with a lot of their privileges despite having already going bankrupt, when they were arguably the second richest club in the world just a decade ago. Chelsea is simply bad at handling money they have, Barca was horrible at handling money THEY DON'T HAVE, they still haven't paid the loans for newer players like De-Jong or even older ones like Coutinho..
I genuinely recommend you to look it up, looking at how much the previous two presidents screwed up Barca would make think the American at Chelsea is cute in comparison.
yeah, they are really rivalling united in this regard
Their piggy bank left.
Chelsea tried to make what Real Madrid did, bringing in younger players full of potential for the future. They just forget the part where you slowly introduce those players to the squad while mantaning plenty of your experience leaders in the rotation as well. Then those older players, one at the time, leave the club to make up space for the now ready-to-be-stars mid-20 yos.
Yeah, the only old player that i remember from current Chelsea is Thiago Silva
Even some players in the champions league winning squad were very young, Havertz, Mount, Abraham, Hudson-Odoi, Pulisic etc. It was a really good squad but then these new owners came in and wanted a fresh start🤦🏽♂️
No worse than that these owners live in fantasy land thinking this is money ball using A.I scouting think they can figure football all of a sudden. Firing one of the best medical teams in the world over a zoom call and bringing in celebrity doctors straight out of Billie Eilish entourage (I´m not joking btw that is actually true)
And the nerve to act surprised half the squad can´t stay fit for games
Nice touch to shout out The Angry Rantman at the end of the video.
Class.
"Their defense is leaking like a police informant" 😂😂😂 ngl that was a good one
Casually drops a photo of six nine 😂
RIP Angry Rantman, that brother will be missed. As a football club this season, we are finished! Poch is not the guy to lead us, tactically inept & obviously clueless with all the players at his disposal. The medical team needs to be fired as nobody can stay fit or uninjured.
That first meme as a Man Utd fan hurt and made me laugh at the same time. I feel the pain Chelsea fans. 😭
man i wont lie, that angry rantman tribute really put tears in my eyes. Rest in peace legend
This team is a bunch of overpaid, overhyped, underperforming children. Only one there worth their stock (besides the academy players and injured Nkunku) is Cole Palmer.
gusto has been good and was actually underhyped (Lyon fans were saying he was trash), Jackson as well for his price and experience has been solid, the board screwed him by not bringing in an actual striker to help ease the load (this was supposed to be Nkunku but he got injured before the season even started). Caicedo and Enzo are a bit overhyped but that's more bc of their pricetag which they can't control, Enzo was very good under Potter and has been playing through a hernia issue which has now gotten surgery on and is out the rest of the season. Caicedo has been pretty solid all season pretty much playing in a 1 man midfield, he just had some big mistakes that cost us some points. also none of these guys are on big wages besides Sterling who has definitely been underwhelming this season
You can’t say Jackson has been solid. The chances missed are insane
@@BrightenedNoteit's kinda weird, but there are matches where his workrate is very solid, helping with his runs and passes. Not a lot can be said about his finishing, but his positioning is also solid (at least in the lesser matches).
It's just his style isn't exactly what is required from a team like Chelsea. In smaller teams, no problem if you're a creator striker that relies on your teammates a lot. But in bigger clubs, you have to be able to create goals by yourself, especially in hairy situations.
@@BrightenedNote he has 12 goals and 4 assists in all competitions not bad for a 22 yo striker who was playing barefoot in Senegal 6 years ago. He’s also not a natural number 9 he was a winger until Villarreal converted him to striker midway through their season last year in which he scored 13 goals in 13 games and that’s pretty much how we ended up buying him. He wasn’t supposed to be the main guy that was supposed to be Nkunku but he’s been injured all season. Only thing Jackson lacks is finishing and composure he does everything else in terms of hold up play, passing, making runs and even his pressing at a very high level especially given his age and experience level.
It’s not really their fault. No player can excel without a proper structure. Chelsea was basically spending huge amounts of money totally randomly, with massively inflated fees for unproven players. No plan whatsoever- and it shows
This is worse than OJ saying the glove don’t fit
And I’m a Barca fan
Fitting tribute to the Angry Rantman. RIP legend
As a hardcore Chelsea fan, all i can say is Poch is the last of our problems. Even if i am the only one, i will support him. Managers suffering needs to change.
Fr, if jackson finished his chances yall would be in t5
Lol but so has been every manager who has come. Dont you think players like Madueke are prime Bums?😂😂
@@codeaperture sorry bro, but do you agree or disagree with me? 🤔
As a non Chelsea fan, I'll die on that hill - you could have been even more successful with much less money spent if you just stuck with one manager for a longer period of time and included him in creating the project. You wouldn't have to reset the whole squad every three or four years at the very least
I’m with you 10000%
Lil fact: Gianfranco Zola is Chelsea fifth all time top premiership goal scorer with 59 in 229 games over 9 seasons.
Palmer is on currently on 20 goals in 28 games.
Zola only played in England for a bit over 6,5 years, he joined Chelsea 8.11.1996 and left 1.07.2003. Still, he came to the Premier League in his thirties because he was "too old" and "not good enough" for Serie A and spent over six seasons in Chelsea as the star of the league. It's still hilarious to me, ngl
But yeah, Palmer is very good, especially considering his age and circumstances. I hope he keeps up his hard work because he may become a great player one day
Zola was like 34 when he came to Chelsea lol
@@zosiazaremba7479 my bad, apologies, 1996-2003, 7 seasons. Don't think of this as criticism of Zola, I'm not a Chelsea fan but he is one of those players that I loved! More of a statement of how good Palmer could be. He's only 20 and he's carrying a team with a huge reputation. If he maintains current levels he could have more goals than Drogba in 6-7 years! If he sticks around that long.
@@tikemyson562730 to be exact
@@tikemyson5627 he was 30, which back then was a much older player than it is today. Look at Kane being 100m at 30. No one thinks Salah is too old now at 31, the worry is how do you replace him. But back in the day most players were on the downhill at 30 and retired by 34-36.
I'm in no way saying zola was bad, he's a legend, it's more a statement of how good palmer could end up being.
Dude thank you for shouting out to angry rantman
Rip
You're a true legend my sir
This channel deserves more subscribers.....the overall quality he give his viewer's is class!
Everyone is overplaying Cole's goal count. He's got 9 from pens, most of which he did not earn. So, he's got 11 npG, one more than Jackon. That's a big difference than 2x.
I think they should change the rules to make the player who got fouled take the penalty like basketball free throws. let the team pick the shooter for handballs just like now.
You’re definitely a clueless American.
We´re not overplaying him without Palmer´s goals and assists we are legit in a relegation battle and even without the goals he´s clear above the rest. Palmer is a baller.
I don´t know what weirdo started this we don´t count pens thing someone still needs to score them! Palmer has been vital. Stop looking at football like an ai bot.
Here's a stat you won't believe, Nicholas Jackson has 15 Goals and Assists in 33 appearances this season.
He could have 5x as much if he actually finished his chances
Less than .5 contributions per game is not impressive
@@steveg8533 its top 20 in the entire league
Top 20 🤣🤣🤣 amazing 👏
Actually 16 g+a I believe
Great touch with the angry rantman shoutout mate! May he rest in peace
To play devil's advocate for Clearlake and to give context to Chelsea, I will say the following:
- A lot of the players brought before weren't this injury prone, this is only something that has happened this season.
- Of those players brought, a lot were expected to be given time to grow.
- Jackson was brought a 2nd striker as a back up to Nkunku or to play in a front 2.
- Badiashile and Disasi aren't that mistake prone, it's only when they play together they are. (They are having to play together as we have no other CB.
- Silva's age has caught up to him and we can only really play him in a back 3, which we don't have any wingbacks to do this atm.
- Despite scoring 2 goals against City, Sterling hasn't been a good senior example for the players and is in awful form/confidence atm.
- Poch has brought out the best form from Gallagher and since then, the reports of him leaving has died down. (Probably why we're looking to sell Maatsen instead now)
- Enzo and Caicedo don't seem to play well, Caicedo's best performance's have been without Enzo. but Enzo has been playing with an injury for half the season.
End of the day Poch has done a poor job managing this team and both him and the board has done a poor job explaining the project and taking the pressure off this team.
I reckon we need to do some finetuning of replacing of the squad dynamics (need an out and out LB who is not injury prone) and to prevent the constant injuries from happening (which the club does seem to be investigating.
Once we have a fit team again, we should have a clearer idea as to where this club actually stands
this is 100% facts, fully agree with every point you made. I think Caicedo and Enzo can work but we need a true DM behind them whether thats Lavia or Ugochukwo as Enzo/Caicedo aren't really DMs
Thing is:
- Nkunku is not a striker. If Chelsea think he is, that is serious misprofiling. He is a 8/10. Which means Jackson, the striker converted from winger, is the only option upfront. Palmer is a wide striker.
- Thiago Silva should have been phased out much earlier.
- Sterling is still somehow Chelsea's best attacking option.
- Enzo is a Fabregas-esque player with much less defensive awareness/contribution, Caicedo is more of a box-to-box type (not at Kante's level), Lavia is a dribbling CM a.k.a not an anchoring type, Ugochukwu is an unfinished product. Chelsea midfield is a mess, only held together by Gallagher, who can do a bit of everything (think of him as the Cobham version of Darren Fletcher).
- Chelsea will sell Maatsen to balance the book, but they cannot get rid of Cucurella, a very bad LB who can neither get his defensive posture and positioning correctly nor complete a decent pass forward.
@@therockbat Have you actually watched us this season?
Nkunku only gets played as a striker and scores when he does (he works well in a 2 man attack)
Sterling is now our worst player
Gallagher has been our best player and the only one actually showing passion to play for us.
Cucurella has actually been decent for us and shows up in big games.
Enzo has stopped being made to push up as far, making him more defensively solid and has been playing through an injury.
Chelsea spent more money in the last 3 years as the yearly GDP of San Marino. If they have any problems they are well deserved.
What about the players they sold?
Absolute class with a small tribute to Abhradeep. Wonderful Gesture :))
Live in Texas but have a coworker that is from London and is an avid Chelsea fan. His favorite quote is “GO ON POCH!!!”
Didier Jackson 🔥🔥
Nicolas Drogba 😂
One's one of the greatest premier league strikers of all time and a bonafide Chelsea legend, the other is Didier Drogba.
Lakaka jackson
I have been taking care of myself as well as my family, but this football club is giving me unwarranted depression. 💔
Take a break if you need it, you have no obligation to be shackled to something detrimental to your health
some players make it in football more for strenght then skills and brains. Jackson is one example of this
Class fromTinashe to offer condolences to Rantman in this video. The amount of Love from the Football community has been truly heartwarming to see
Anthony showing his name after man u win the penalty shootout against conventry is absolutely shameless… imagine your ego being so high that you felt that was the right thing to do after that horrendous performance
That was a fucking disgrace, Antony will be back playing in the Favalas soon.
This just cement the managerial job that Tuchel did between February to May 2021 as one of the greatest I’ve seen
When that legendary line came.
Real one
I have been seeing Chelsea matches because of Enzo Fernandez, after seeing almost all the season I can tell you that it's literally Palmer, Enzo and maybe Petrovic vs 19.
There was a moment in a match a couple of weeks ago(I think it was the Sheffield one correct If I'm wrong) where Enzo makes a perfect pass and leaves Jackson 1v1 and he doesn't even shoot, that right there is every Enzo match in Chelsea. He's been really good but only palmer helps but it's not enough if their front 3 are basically training cones.
It would be dramatic if Chelsea and United bounce back and are in top 3 next year 😅. As a united fan it's a defiant dream
I wouldn’t put it past them because Man United and Chelsea are the type of teams that look like absolute clowns for a long stretch, and then have that flashy moment or do extravagant things like draw Man City 4-4. Now take this logic but apply it to they suck for a few years, and come out of nowhere for 1 year.
If you get a promoted Leeds back into Europe, England’s triangle of toxicity is set.
We're all high on copium, that's for sure. I was watching MU playing against Sheffield and genuinely wondered who would be lower: us without Palmer or you without Bruno
Chelsea will likely challenge for top 4 next season, I doubt they’ll get it though. They lack the consistency to make a real push for anything further than that.
Absolute class from you boss to shout out Angry Rant man. Absolute! Touch of class👏
Love your videos.
As a Chelsea fan I can confidently say Nicolas Jackson is a project we need to invest he is good at everything ( link up play and etc. ) except shooting I do believe he will get there
exactly he has everything besides finishing bc he's a natural winger that got converted to striker at Villareal halfway through the season
I agree. He is what we expected mudryk to be. Raw talent with flashes of brilliance but no end product. I hope someone works with him and teaches him how to properly finish cuz he can be a very dangerous player
Against man city, i know he missed a lot and was dreadful. But i liked that he was trying. He was constantly finding spaces in behind , trying to dribble even if he is alone. If we let poch do things his way, then he should come good.
I love every Chelsea fan here in the replies I’m finally seeing the type of optimism I’ve had for Nicolas Jackson 😭 I hope you guys feel the same way about Badiashile who is just having a slump
@@josealatorre-lopez7551yes bro i remember badiashile was really good under potter. He is having bad games maybe because he has just gotten back from injury and maybe some confidence issues when the entire team is underperforming. Only if the owners learn to bring the players cautiously and fix the medical team, we would be good with poch in coming years.
You're brilliant with these videos man
Fantastic coverage as per 👊🏿💥
The Closed Captions called Tuchell "Chokehold" and Pochettino , "Bunch of Tino" 🤣
Wow, I've never been this early lol keep up the great work mfethu.
All the way from South Africa🇿🇦... Fede njayam!
Oh the joy of seeing a football iconic upload
brilliant way to end the vid with that tribute. keep it up bro!
I've been waiting for this video from you tbh😂
Fantastic video as always. Up the Blues✌
I have been watching Chelsea since the 1990s.
I can remember the club being relegated.
Clearlake and Boehly have no clue how to build a football club.
Chelsea could end up like Everton.
Their best players this season are Palmer and Gallagher who can't get into the England team.
Chelsea is now a mid-table club.
This fills me with so much joy
Damn Chelsea won the tremble but in the opposite way going trophy less for the third time😂😂
He made a mistake we won club World Cup and UEFA super cup in 21/22 so it’s been 2 trophyless seasons not 3
Lol 10 days later, we’ve got the European football secured and ManU gon finish way below us 😅
As a Chelsea fan this is a brilliant video spot on 10/10 bro
"Chelsea have lost in six finals at Wembley in a row."
"Chelsea have only scored 1 goal at Wembley in their last 7 matches."
You can also add the funny thing that Chelsea weren't in the Champions League this season, with the Final being held at Wembley.
Class act man, RIP Angry rantman 🙏
The Jackson criticism is harsh. He’s very clearly not the finisher needed right now but to downplay his talents entirely is ridiculous. If you spent any time watching him you’d know there’s a lot of talent to work with there
Jackson is a lot faster than Saliba. That is frightening pace.
@@Samuel-hd3cp It looks effortless as well. He managed to outpace Walker during the city game and possess very strong dribbling ability. Personally I see him best utilized moving forward as an inverted forward playing off a target man. That way he’s allowed to focus on getting into the space left behind the #9 while removing the pressure placed on him to be the main goal threat
Miss Jackson at it again
I am sorry miss jackson....
I am for reeeaallll
Great video we in out banter era sadly
Haha. You Look like the Actor of Falcon😂
Nice Video. Ty.
Nicolas Jackson explained for you : A pretty good all round striker who's brain lapses into a small coma when he's in-front of the goal.
Give him Palmer's composure, you've got a 20 goal a season striker instantly.
Love the angry rant man tribute. ❤
N. Jackson scored 28 goals in his WHOLE career (zero international goals). Palmer has 20 only this season.
I think the new owners around Boehly don't care what happens with club as long they make a profit, same thing with ManU
Sweet tribute at the end
A United fan talking about Chelsea's problem 😂😂😂
Finally a video on my mess of a team from you. I look forward to this
Poch out.
And who would you replace him with? And what would they change to make the team perform?
@@cokedupkrabs2937 jose would be perfect yes he would not make title challenger but he would atleast discipline players poch neither has personality nor tactics or style of play main problem is owner but draing against burnley and shefield is on poch
@@abhishekbijalwan2246 Jose would die from brain bleeding before he whips any discipline in this team lol. They are set for basically the next decade with all this stupid long term contracts and big wages, offload them would even be a troublesome task at this point
@abhishekbijalwan2246 you CANNOT bring Jose back it ended in tears last time and he's been to United since. You need a manager who can develop young players, that's not Mourinho.
@@cokedupkrabs2937 I dunno but I here Poch would be free tho.
14:50 RIP
Nice Video!
best and brightest minds sure Jan
Brother love your work, please analyze Liverpool’s season next🤧
Love to see you do a run down of Everton. And what can they expect after 3 years of fighting relegation. What options do they have?
Without Abramovich Chelsea is a mid table club and that’s sad because they’re a historical and successful club. Same with Man United I don’t like them but I feel bad for both clubs
Chorizero. Give over! You can't compare Chelsea to Man Utd!
I don't even like Man Utd, but they have more history than pre-Abramovich Chelsea.
@@Samuel-hd3cp oh I know I wasn’t saying pre abramovich Chelsea has as much history as United have, I was just comparing the 2 by how they fell off these last couple of years. Make more sense?
Chelsea need Experience it’s all well and good having very talented young players but when they lose their confidence and composure you need someone we can tell them that they will be alright
Lovely video
Scoring 8 out of 11 pens is not being a good penalty taker. Thats actually below average performance. Pens being credited with around 0.8 xG. So yeah letting him take the pen is not a good idea
"Benny Blanco"
Love that
Cole palmer is the best striker to help Chelsea to win matches and we should get Thomas TUCHEL back to Chelsea because he helped us win champions league against Manchester City and agains Villarreal in the UEFA Cup
Tinashe bro unogara wakabuditsa class videos
I don't follow football much, but I love your videos
The main problem Chelsea have is, they’ve been missing half their team with injuries for most of the season. That’s right, players who definitely would have started in the side. Reese James, Wesley Fofana, Levi Colwill, Ben Chilwell, that’s your first team defence. Romeo Lavia only played 32 minutes of the season and the biggest loss of all Christopher Nkunku, the best finisher at the club, who was signed to score the goals, he was absolutely superb in preseason until a tackle by Hummels ruined his season. Put the six of them in the team and the season would have been a whole lot different.
"Defense leaking like a police informant." 😂 Brilliant.
Unbelievable vid as per
This did not age well... we have passed Man U😂😂😂
you caught me off guard there i was just watching that rant few weeks ago before chelsea beat man utd, like i watch it every year, i thought your ending was a happy tribute since Chelsea are bad nowadays but that was sad news. Rest in Peace
It seems like you'll be biting your tongue at the end of the season 😂😂😂
Poch definitely sold the soul of his first born to trick everyone into believing that he is a PL quality coach year after year
Well he was good at Southampton and spurs consistently in the league each year
If you think the manager is the root of the problem you are the casualist of casual football fans
Even if I despise them, there's just something missing from the League without the pure evil that was Abramovich-era Chelsea. I hope they get better soon
no other man utd fan I'd have analysing my team than this gentleman, ngl could've been harsher lmao
One thing I worry about is that due to them giving like 10 year contracts to players like Mudryk don’t they loose a little bit of motivation and drive to be better
Our downfall has coincided with a two and a half year injury crisis, from the moment TT lost the title race in December. And it’s only the 2nd season we don’t have a trophy. We had 2 in 2021/22
the problem with Jackson, is that he has TOO much confidence, without the ability
Video: Chelsea's cursed with strikers.
Drogba: Do I mean nothing to you?
What was even more bizzare was the Sheffield game, despise this roster 😢
Rich Dortmund of England 😂😂😂
Chelsea was the first team i ever supported as an american.
Im from seattle and didnt have a professional team locally and I think any american soccer fan chooses a european team in addition to their local team.
I actually started watching chelsea in the mid 2000s when they lost to manu. I still really respected them and loved the players.
Sad to see whats been happening.
Team building should be more organic and system based.
Step 1
Get a good systems coach like Alonso, Pep, Arteta, Klopp and understand his vision of football and his system
Step 2
Use analytics to assess the players required for his system
Step 4
Build slowly and as economic as possible. Dont buy sox players in one window. Buy three at most.
Step 4
Give coach time.
Jackson did a Nunez versus Arsenal 😂😂
good vid
Chelsea need to stick with a manager and give him the signings he wants poch comed in and has signings from potter
Hi Tinashe Chipako, hope you good mate, is it possible that you can do a player analysis of Toni Kroos like how you did for Michael Carrick cause I enjoyed those video, even if its just Kroos because I enjoy watching him, please.
and he got us to fa cup in the semi finals
Nicholas Jackson is easy to explain. He was brought as a second striker and performs best with another attacker playing in tandem with him. But Nkunku has been injured all season and so he has to play as a lone striker which he isn't great at
It's also his first season and it's rare for a striker to come out the gates firing in their first season.
He does play well with mudryk playing off him, but as we have no wingbacks atm, Mudryk is being forced to play in an almost wingback position, so that Disasi/Cucurella/Chalobah doens't have to push forward as far.
9:52 Remember when this happened at PSG between Cavani and Neymar? "Experienced Professionals" :D
Regarding Mudryk, as an Arsenal supporter I am so glad Chelsea swooped in back then bought him instead of Arsenal. I never felt like he would have been a good fit for the club and in my opinion Arsenal dodged a bullet there.
When you said Nicolas Jackson is awaiting trial for war crimes, I genuinely almost switched tabs to Google it. I feel like an idiot.
The new owners messed up the easiest rebuilds of the century. They’ve had some good transfers like Palmer, Jackson, Gusto, Enzo and Caicedo but they got rid of too many prominent players of the old core like Kante, Mendy, Rudiger etc.
I think bringing back Chillwell from the bench could really fix the back line
