Nah, he's not. I expected much more from him. That's why he's a disappointing signing for me. How many times Jorginho won MOTM for example? Or Player of the Month?

Don't give me that "3rd place in Ballon d'Or" crap because he only got there because of the trophies won in a short space of time. Next Ballon d'Or he'll drop to the bottom of the list.

When I think of our CL run for example and who were the big stars on getting that trophy for us, I can think of 6 players minimum who did better ahead of Jorginho.

Jorginho then went and then won another European tournament with a totally different set of players just over one month later and that was sitting infront of a back four which supposedly exposes him.

Shev, Zappacosta, Morata, Old Higuain (loan), Falcao, Torres, Lukaku, Bakayoko, Bats, Drinkwater, Saul (loan), Emerson, Barkley, Kepa (for the price we got him), Papy Djilobodji (YES I REMEMBER HIM), Baba Rahman...

I was itching to put Jorginho in this list as well, but he is more of a disappointing signing than a complete dud like Alonso.

I'm sure I'm missing some more in this list. Those are the ones I can think of on the top of my head. No kidding. Some of these duds are actually still here.

Alonso is a classy player, very skilful, some would say a luxury player but if you put him in a very good starting 11 he will deliver.

Jorginho is also a very decent player, weve had some mediocre players in the past but these two are not one of them - i assume you have only been watching for 20 years or so.

Look at the list again, because I didn't put Alonso in it. I don't like Alonso as a defender, but I damn well know he ain't a flop. However, just like Jorginho, he is a disappointing player to me.

Well he's one of the longest serving Chelsea players that's why. Torres and Morata were flops but still scored goals for Chelsea.

You called him a "complete dud" though ... which sounds pretty floppy to me ! 

Anyway ... :-)

But what does serious quality look like ? We had Salah and KDB at one time, but someone thought they were not top quality and let them escape. We broke our transfer record on Lukaku a supposed "world class player". plus another half a billion burned on more "world class players" over the last decade. Then you look at some of the best players in the squad now and realise they came from our own academy. 

Well you would like to think they will probably shake things up in that aspect, Like suggested here maybe for 1 season more then a changing of the guard

In my eyes what we did worked, should of beat utd in cl and we would have 3 CL for way less than what utd and city have spent to get nowhere near and liverpool went through a billion players in that time and until recently utter tripe for ages so I think we're out in front tbh.

I dont think its easy at all, not many clubs get it right utd go to example and everton

Boy you guys cannot read. You need to go to school.

Aka, Jorginho and Alonso are more of disappointing signings than complete duds. 

Even IF you think I said Alonso is a complete dud, I would have lumped him with Bakayoko on that list! Use your noggings idiots!

That is not what that reads, you changed it, gotta be careful, we are surgeons for the wrong wording….Don’t be so condescending, we’ve been here a long time, and fell out with better than you, ya idiot!!

You called me a worthless fan, of course I'm going to fecking bite. If people stop calling me idiot, shameless fan etc. then I will not call them back. If you want to challenge me, fine but don't resort in to saying sh*t like this.

Here's the thing, I don't care what he does for Italy. I care what he does for Chelsea FC.

Be honest. Truly. Hand on heart. Do you think Jorginho last season, was better than Kante? Mount? Mendy? Kovacic? Silva? Rudiger? Can you?

Last year's Ballon d'Or was a complete farce.

All this bollocks on here about Jorginho and Alonso - cant you all crawl back to the Jorgi / Alonso threads where this talk is justified?

Lets talk about the big news - Roman, the best owner in football, continues to do "right" by Chelsea. The man needs a statue and a stand named after him for all he has done for us. Lets hope that when the politicking dies down, that we can pay tribute in any way we can, to who has been, undoubtedly, the best owner in football.

Neither do I, but when you're the only ever present for two champions of Europe in the space of a month and a half the odds are you're not a lucky passenger.

He was certainly more crucial than Kovacic in the run, Kova didn't play a minute against Real and 'only' the last 10 of the final.

Hey @Munkworth we need one of your "this is a .... thread " pictures.

Also @nonotnowjim you forgot the part about him giving you the gift of Timo Werner 😉
