I'm sure Frank would have had it out with him once off air . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brilliant player. 16 hours ago, Mark Kelly said: One of mine too, when my boss put in a new phone system at work he asked me what extension I wanted and I asked for 22. Every time he says across at me, "what's your extension again" I say "Eidur Gudjohnsen". Oh how we laugh 😕 What larks, Pip! 16 hours ago, Chelsea_Matt said: A beautiful footballer. Levels above. Just wonderful. One of my all-three top 3 Chelsea players. 🇮🇸 ⚽️🫶🏻🥰🩶 He was SO good to watch. So natural. Just glided with the ball....... If he had a yard more pace, then my word we'd be talking about an all time great. 1 hour ago, My Blood Is Blue said: Wonderful player, one of my favourites in a Chelsea shirt and arguably one of the more underrated players in the PL era. 100%. that goal against Leeds......... In 2003, we signed Crespo and Mutu, and he saw those off. In 2004, we added Drogba and Kezman, and again, he was a key player. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unlike Steve cobra-eyes, Gary had the most expressive peepers in cinema and he was English! His somewhat stiff gait was following a car crash when he was 15 and you too would be dour if you had been abandoned by your constituency and left at the mercy of a gang of villains! Steve Cooper, on the other hand.........unwatchable 😉 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was also injured at Chelsea for what felt like eighteen months and ran his contract down , nobody has ever and I mean ever disputed what a good player he is but the club felt given his apparent on going injuries and the amount of wages he wanted that it wasn't a good risk . We should be thankful we got good service for him and happy his lifestyle choice is prolonging his career not constantly sniping at the club for the very valid reasons they let him go . 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thevelourfog Posted June 22 Share Posted June 22 Kante is really obviously still absolutely brilliant every time he takes to the pitch. I don't know that I have ever seen anyone here or elsewhere say differently. For all the things I can slate the club and these owners for, not renewing his deal when he basically could never take to the pitch for us is not one of them. I feel pretty confident we'd be sat here bashing them for paying £300k a week to someone who was rarely available to play. Brilliant performances and adequate fitness over a few weeks for a team that doesn't pay you says nothing about the wisdom or potential lack thereof of letting Kante go. In some ways I think he's embarrassed himself. Wtf is he doing in Saudi Arabia if he can still do this. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
