Yeah ok, but I don’t quite care about squad since we’ve had our usual first 11 fit since January onwards.
Palmer would definitely start over anyone in our 11. Gallagher? Not so sure. Who would you swap him for? Bissouma? Sarr? I don’t think he’s an improvement over our starting CMs (or Bentancur).
Colwill is what, a CB? Would you start him over VDV or Romero? Probably not, right?
What about Madueke? Would you start him over Kulu or Johnson? Imo it’s a 50/50, but I don’t think he’s a clear improvement on our players.
Don’t know why you include Neto since this was about last season’s teams.
No I don’t care about the squad argument because bar a couple of months, we’ve had our first 11 available for selection and the manager has pretty much picked the same eleven every game.
That's daft John, Ange has been here one season.Ange, wether you love him or not, hasn't scratched the surface or achieved anything like as much to be mentioned along side Poch.
What’s interesting watching the ‘Mission to Burnley’ documentary is how much emphasis they put on data led recruitment - which obviously flagged Odobert up to them last year.
Clearly those same markers flagged up all over our own recruitment dashboard this summer!
Fans love a tricky player that takes on his man, so hopefully he can become a fan favourite quite quickly . . .
What?
Firstly, Richy wasn't fit at the start of the season and he was suffering a mental health crisis, Bentancur was still injured, Johnson wasn't signed until late so missed the first few matches. Then we had our injury crisis and suspensions in fact we didn't have a fully fit squad until Feb:

Tottenham finally have a fully-fit first XI - so can they now mount title tilt?
ANGE POSTECOGLOU finally has all his big-hitters available this weekend for the first time since taking over. Now he will be looking to prove the doubters wrong and show Tottenham are genuinely in …www.thesun.co.uk
So how is that bar a couple of months? lmao
Secondly even if your bizarre statement was true do you think managers don't make subs or anything, do you think that the first 11 play all 90 mins of those matches? Hence why making the argument about squad makes total sense.
What nonsense.![]()
It’s also wild that we still have fans who think players coming back from long term injuries are fully fit.
If you don’t play football for 3 months or even 6 months in Bentancurs case, is there no small section of grey matter in people’s heads that wonder how long it takes to get back up to the level of aerobic fitness and match sharpness to play the most intense football league in the world?
Firstly, Richy wasn't fit at the start of the season and he was suffering a mental health crisis
This is a strange argument? The manager picked the same first 11 from the same Squad? We don’t have the same squad now? And the first 11 he had off the top of my head had 4 first team Injuries to recover from. Now we have most positions with quality depth. So how does and improved squad not make us a better team? And 1/5 of the season is quite a few games.No I don’t care about the squad argument because bar a couple of months, we’ve had our first 11 available for selection and the manager has pretty much picked the same eleven every game.

So they would take 6 of ours by my math? They are also drowning in debt, have a million players and finished below us? This is why I come on here occasionally the. Sheer shite people talk, yes Levy out lolI don't know about 11 per se, but Palmer and Gallagher get in our first team, I'd take Colwill and Madueke. And they just signed Neto. That's five Chelsea players straight away.
They probably would. They are buying everyone else.So they would take 6 of ours by my math? They are also drowning in debt, have a million players and finished below us? This is why I come on here occasionally the. Sheer shite people talk, yes Levy out lol
It’s always the username come back lol. End of the day, I’d take our first 11 over theirs, but I’m a Spurs fan.They probably would. They are buying everyone else.
This is a forum where people discuss different things and have differing opinions.
If you don't think that chelsea have players worth taking, good for you.
Your username is quite apt.
It shows that Richarlison was ready for selection in the first few matches…? Contrary to what you said.

your comment was empty and validates nothing
That you’re talking a lot of shit?If I said he wasn't fit and say that he was suffering from mental health issues what does that tell you?
