Another Winger! - Noni Madueke

But what I don't understand is that many have said that this could be the end of CHO. Now whilst many, including me, are still on yje fence over CHO, I don't see how this would be that much of a step up in any department.  Just seem a waste of just shy of 30m. It's nothing against Madueke, I hope he is a great success, but we already have a player that appears very similar and we need players elsewhere (Frimpong or Dumfries at RB, Lavia, Bissouma or Rabiot maybe at DM). Whilst these funds wouldn't buy any of them it would go towards it.

Oh and we were looking for this kind of profile player I probably would have gone for Olise from Palace. Soon it will be too late as he will be priced out.
Which similar player are you referring to ? Havertz and mount don’t beat players 1v1.. ziyech doesn’t like to either and very rarely goes to the byline.. too one footed infact.. pulisic one could say but he plays on the left and is very light weight..

this is a great signing if we can sort his injury record.

 
Well the issues we have is Sterling is out for a few weeks and Pulisic could be out for months. Mudryk was on his way to arsenal this window if we didn't step in and Madueke was being tracked by a few teams so we got in while we could.

Im trusting that we're going to end up getting a CM before the end of the window, I'll start panicking if it gets to near the end of the window and we still don't have one.

Im also not understanding how anybody can look at that shower of sh*te lineup we've just put out against Liverpool and not be over the moon that we've revamped nearly our entire front line, instead people are finding reasons to complain.

Also, next season we will be going into it with a forward line that have all players together for half a season (barring Nkunku) and not be going into it where they're all strangers and need time to gel together
After Mudryk's debut, I find myself more agreeable to your points

 
Given the detailed opinions you talk about, It's a shame that Gol has to be on ignore so often. Never met another poster who makes up so much nonsense.

"You said x. I interpret that as Y. Therefore you must actually think z" etc.... His ability to extrapolate to the Nth degree is second to done. Either that, or he remains a serial WUM.
Ah your loss man, is great stuff 🙂

By that you mean me interrupting your morning coffee and tagging you to do it right?

 
I watched a few YouTube highlights of him and he looks a real talent. Very excited to see him play.

With Mudryk and him at least we don't have to think of Leao anymore. With Noni we could potentially develop our own Leao for a fraction of the cost.

 
We've spent millions and tried a boatload of attackers like Havertz, Werner, Pulisic, Lukaku, Morata, Barkley, Ziyech, PEA, CHO, Sterling, Mount searching for our next ceiling raiser since Hazard left. But the players who've actually had some success for us have been Costa, Tammy and Giroud. It's clear searching for flash is a futile exercise. It's better to focus on consistent attackers operating with a class midfield.
I don't think you can build a team saying I want a class midfield and a average attacker and it can work. You need quality everywhere to have a good team. If what you have is just some consistent player but average, you will turn into spurs. You basically will never compete for big title.

Some of the fans sometimes forget that we won the Champions League, the biggest prize in Europe with these same average players. You can have all the best players in the world in the team but if a winning mentality isnt there, they will achieve nothing

That’s a blessing I believe. Didn’t like the idea of him coming to Chelsea. 

 
I have no idea what to expect from Noni, but am excited by the prospect. Change is good - having players that run at the opposition and into space only creates more space for others. We still need to release the ball quicker from the back or midfield, but this could be a useful signing.

Winning mentality is just bs.  I remembered cr7 was brought in to bring to united to bring winning mentality 😂😂😂

These average player??? 

Reece james is in the conversation as the best rb in the world

Kante is probably the only midfielder who can go 1 vs 3 and win it. 

Rudiger was one of the best wide cb in the world. 

Our problem right now none of these player are here or healthy.

It's not completely bs, it's just another component needed to be successful. Pretty much everybody in top level football has some winning mentality in one shape or form

You can't get through without it. There is a level of ability, confidence, belief, desire, and winning killing instinct every academy player everywhere has to have to get a pro contract. Spot on @Deino
