Jones1905 reacted to Nibs in Diego "the guv'nor" CostaWe all love Costa because he plays for Chelsea but let's face it, if he played for anyone else he would be a complete c**t!
And as much as we back Costa because he is our man, any Chelsea fan who seriously wouldn't swap Costa for Aguerro if they had the choice has to be completely delusional.

Jones1905 reacted to PloKoon13 in N'golo Kante - We are not worthy!Well obviously it's going to take him some time to get out from Mikel's shadow but I think it was a very encouraging debut all things considered.

Jones1905 reacted to mclovin83 in *Official* Pedro to ChelseaI actually quite rate Moses as a squad player and have nothing against him, but suggesting he is a better footballer than Pedro really is quite ridiculous.
Moses had a respectable full season with Chelsea, not knocking that, but since then he has been underwhelming to say the least scoring just 8 goals in 3 seasons. Pedro scored 8 just last season.
It's not a dabate that needs stats to put it to be though to be honest, anyone who has eyes and a brain and has watched a bit of football over the last 8 odd years would rate Pedro above Moses; the gulf in class in terms of technical ability is vast.
As for Cuadrado, it really is a laugahble comparison and I am insulted on Pedro's behalf that anyone has even brought it up in a serious manner in all honesty!

Jones1905 reacted to Chelsbear in *Official* Pedro to ChelseaYou constantly post rubbish on here.
You claimed the other day Conte didn't rate or want Costa despite the man a few days before coming out and telling us the very opposite.
Pedro is a better footballer than Moses, nothing you post will change that.

Jones1905 reacted to Bobbywoodhogan in N'golo Kante - We are not worthy!Honestly his suggestions are all African players, it's just daft. I mean you don't see me mentioning the likes if Tom Cleverley just because he's English.

Jones1905 reacted to chelseablueboy in The John Terry Appreciation ThreadAs far as a player goes, JT owes us nothing, what utter drivel !

Jones1905 reacted to big blue in Alvaro MorataWould be a great signing. Costa, morata, traore, would be a fantastic group of strikers.

Jones1905 reacted to Chelsbear in *Official* Pedro to ChelseaIt's pointless if you can't see how useless Salah and Cuadrado were. I don't know a single Chelsea supporter who rated them when they were with us.
Pedro has done far more in his time with us than those 2 combined and that’s a season where 90% of the players have been underperforming.
If you rate Salah and Cuadrado over Pedro that’s obviously your opinion but I think you are barking mate.

Jones1905 reacted to ForeverCarefree in *Official* Pedro to ChelseaIn his defence at least he is brave enough to get himself in to those scoring positions. He takes responsibility and looks to influence the game and score goals.
Willian by contrast, and last night was a good example, doesn't make those same incisive runs and take up good scoring positions.
I quite like Pedro personally.
-
Jones1905 reacted to Chelsbear in *Official* Pedro to ChelseaHe's one of the most direct players we have IMO. Yes he missed a good chance but so have many this season. He got himself into that position with a great run and good skill to wrong foot the last man.
I rate him much higher than the likes of Willian when it comes to attacking play. He will be an important player next season with a pre season behind him and a more settled regime (he came in when the dressing room appeared to be gunning for Jose).
-
Jones1905 reacted to the special one in Antonio Conte - Now Officially ManagerI'm no fan of Cuadrado, but I do agree with this. A lot of Spurs fans were saying Bale was sh*t and we all know what happened next (though Cuadrado is 27 now so time is running out for him).
-
Jones1905 got a reaction from All Barco no bite in Antonio Conte - Now Officially ManagerNot a dig at you at all, and I don't even think this is the case with John Squared, but Arsenal fans were saying this sort of thing about Bellerin for ages before he came good. Regular game time in the face of some bad performances can help a player a lot.
-
Jones1905 reacted to ForeverCarefree in Antonio Conte - Now Officially ManagerOn paper Conte is a more "sensible" appointment than AVB and Scolari were.
AVB was too inexperienced for the job and Scolari had been away from club management way too long and also had no experience of managing a club in Europe's top leagues.
He's a similar appointment to Ancelotti in that he is experienced but still at the top of his game.
I'm optimistic about the appointment but his success at Chelsea is going to depend on how much he is allowed to rebuild the squad over the next couple of years.
-
He's a quality player and obviously brings far more than his goals and assists. Ther are plenty of players who would have a bigger output in those terms but far fewer would have an improved contribution overall.
I don't think he's easily replaceable. £50m is huge for a player who wouldn't have much resale value after his next contract, but given the way the market has inflated it isn't THAT huge.
I'd prefer it if we kept our best players, and Willian is undoubtedly one of that group imo.

Jones1905 reacted to kiwi1691 in The John Obi Mikel Goal Scoring ThreadMikel has been a useful squad player, every team needs players like him. It saddens me when I see the abuse Mikel gets.
