Top scorers in the league. Who would have thought.
Goals coming left, right and centre.

Got to give Maresca his flowers for setting this team up cos there was a time Jorginho legit use to be our top goal scorer. Dark times. Now we're dark horses
Dark times indeed.... Thank God for finally having mercy on Chelsea.... This reminds me of the days of Hazard, mata and Oscar... Goals and assists from everywhere... Chelsea really suffered after that set

Don't bring that inept and good-for-nothing Poch into the discussion jawe. A coach lacking in all elements of coaching.

It was very apparent last season that we lacked approach, setup, grit, tactical prowess and good coaching.

Nateev shared this view repeatedly and opined we would get better with an upgrade.

Here we are just 6 games into the season.

Just 6 games in sir. Big difference being method of play.

Meanwhile those who come on here to constantly ask us if we are still in Pre-Season have moved to the back of the class.

Enzo Maresca, g of the season.

Chelsea still needs a very good clinical finisher up front.

I think i need a midfield controller first. The type of one the ball is safe on his legs even under pressure and can also pick up good es.

Too slow there. When you see how swift and hard the likes of Haaland, Gyokeres, Osimhen shoot, you will strongly request for an upgrade.

On the street they would say 'he dey count leg' before kicking the ball.

Difficult to it but Sterling is our best player and our biggest attacking threat.

Palmer is currently being overrated by our reactionary fanbase. He lacks strength, pace and no shooting power. These are indispensable qualities of a winger and he shouldn't be made to start there.

Enzo is quite talented but I doubt he loves Chelsea. The ion I see in Gallagher and Caicedo, I don't see it in him. A more serious midfielder would have rushed to open up immediately Colwill gave Sanchez that , but no, he was almost hiding behind an Arsenal player. I wonder how we were going to keep possession if our CM is hiding behind opposition players.

Gusto is young and can't be relied on. Too sad we are being made to rely on him because we think he is a back up player to our world class right back. Foolishness of the highest order would be not g a capable right back and stop hoping on James.

Sanchez could have done better but what happened was a simple training drill which is intended to keep possession under pressure and break opposition press. He was very angry at Enzo for he felt that he betrayed him and honestly, I feel the same way too.

Someone said Palmer is overrated on this thread actually cheesy

I wish you could say this thing 3seasons ago when Palmer was been bench at city.

By the way, how is Havertz the generational talent doing? Guess he is more dispensable than Saka in Arsenal?

I have watched Saka over the years and realized that the mumu's confidence peaks when he sees below average defenders. When Arsenal meets an equally strong opponent, Utaka becomes an upgrade on Saka. Fraudster will start forming imaginary pain and limping so he could be excused for the day.

I wasn't satisfied with Palmer's game as a winger and I am sure I wasn't the only one. I suggested he should be moved centrally where his quality can be made most effective. Almost immediately, I knew he is miles ahead of Saka whom you shockingly labeled a world class player. At the Euros, Saka who started 7 games scored the same number goal contribution as Palmer who started non and played less than half of Saka's minutes.

Havertz in 5 games has more contribution than Saka at the euros. And if he cowered like Saka does in vital moments, we wouldn't have that UCL. Saka tumbled over Neuer's perfectly placed leg looking for a fraudulent penalty while Havertz dribbled Ederson brilliantly and slotted home to win us the Champions League. To me, these two scenarios sums up whatever comparison you wish to bring.

So far Jackson shots are going on target (whether stopped by keeper or defender), that's an improvement on last season when all his shots were going wide

Jackson should secure a place in Senegal starting line up first.

Sancho will actually cook on the left wing which is his best position but he has not had the opportunity to play there for Manure

If Sancho is the price we have to pay to get rid of Sterling then so be it. But Nkunku and Mudryk should also be sold so as not to crowd him out. Between Sancho, Neto and Felix, we are good on that left wing, not to talk of Carney

Sancho cooking is no surprise to me.

Modern wingers dribbling styles are adapted to dribble while cutting inside to their stronger foot (inverted wingers). Sancho was never afforded that at Manure. Looking at his style you know he would cook on the left wing and anything you get from him on the right wing is a bonus but suboptimal

This is why you have to respect Rodrygo at Madrid who keeps performing on right wing although below the levels he can reach on left wing. Rodrygo on left wing will actually be elite world class

Players who perform in non-inverted wing positions should be respected like William did for us for years to accommodate Hazard on the LW. Seeing 35 year old William cooking on left wing for Fulham last season gives you a glimpse of his true ceiling in the correct position

You asked us not to sign a new LWF and also wanted us to sign an experienced CB. Sancho now has 3 assists in 3 matches.

You are a very poor football analyst as we focused more on attack in the summer window against your wish and now winning matches with Sancho and without your so-called experienced CB.

Replace your wasteful and epileptic Jackson with a better finisher, and we will be a strong contender for the Epl title.

Cover your face in shame.

You can proudly say this now, but when you were told that ing cast is more important than g another SF, you strongly disagreed.

The attack you bouth has been responsible for our 15 goals, the highest in the league so far. No single goal scored by a defender yet.

The same set of attackers; Jackson, Madueke and Palmer doing the job.

Rest and stop being dogmatic.

Enzo Maresca, the g of the season.

And there they will remain permanently. A permanent state of shut up.

The manner in which we responded to the first goal, bombarded and flooded them with countless chances is a hallmark of fine coaching.

I how we struggled against a high-pressing team last season, yesterday's game would have resulted in a loss.

Kudos Enzo Maresca!

Maybe you didn't have data when I was asking for 1 LWF that could dribble in tight spaces and Timbros was strongly against it.

Had we got a clinical finisher, we would have beaten Crystal Palace and be leading the table now and become a strong contender for the trophy after spending over 1bn on players.

My opinion on football is too complex for casuals and my high expectation of a striker is alien to Gen Z Chelsea fans. But that's not my problem.

Jackson burying this chance would have seen us topping the table today, but most of you wouldn't see it.
