paulw66 Posted June 22 Share Posted June 22 2 hours ago, Mark Kelly said: 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 . 10 minutes ago, thevelourfog said: 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. some common sense. It's getting a bit weird, again. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Agree...seems no matter how hard we try at times invariably common sense takes over and the Forum justifies the Intelligent title...... and that's after a great deal of hard work to the contrary from an OG and the "Usual Suspects" 😄😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's been back to the Bridge and should always be welcomed again with open arms. Lovely lovely man 🥰 On 29/05/2024 at 21:23, Chelsea_Matt said: I know JT hasn’t exactly behaved well at times and all but…my god do we need him back at Chelsea as #2. 🙌🏻🩶✌️💯 On 14/06/2024 at 12:13, JaneB said: 23 years ago today we signed a player without whom our trophy cabinet wouldn't be nearly as full as it is today. He doesn't have to prove himself as a manager to me. He's one of the greatest players of the Premier League era and that's quite enough. Super Frankie Lampard 💙 On 19/06/2024 at 20:30, JaneB said: 24 years ago today we signed Eidur Gudjohnsen, one of my favourite Chelsea players (@Chelsea_Matt) And talk about feeling old. I remember seeing his little kids playing around on the pitch and now they're all professional footballers 😮 How have I missed this thread??? So many lovely memories flashing before my eyes. I may think the new owners are mostly wank, but oh my am I glad I witnessed the miracle in Munich on site in the ground. When Drogbas penalty went in it was absolute mayhem for a good 10 minutes. I can hardly remember anything after that until I was sat in some weird pub after the game watching a Chelsea fan strip down naked, throwing all his clothes in the bin and running down the street screaming ‘Campione, campione’. My best football memory to date. I also saw someone mentioned Eidurs outrageous goal against Leeds. Probably one of my favourite goals ever. It wasn’t the most important game, but oh my what a class act that fella was. Fellow Nordic as well. We should get a few more of those! 1 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
