Florent Malouda says what most are thinking, but Chelsea don’t see it – Talk Chelsea

Chelsea’s present points for me are fairly apparent, and the extra I go searching, hear, and skim, most Chelsea followers suppose the identical factor.

For me, Mauricio Pochettino isn’t tactically ok as a supervisor and must be changed in the summertime. However the issues are larger and wider than that, with the principle one being the naive squad rebuild.

I’ve seen SO many pundits, consultants, former professionals, former Chelsea gamers, and SO many Chelsea followers saying the identical factor. However the determination makers at Chelsea don’t see to see it, or in the event that they do, they’re digging their heels in, ignoring it, and foolishly backing their very own selections.

I’ll let former Chelsea participant Florent Malouda clarify it although, as a result of he’s somebody who has truly performed the sport at a high degree and for a profitable Chelsea crew, and he actually is aware of what he’s speaking about right here.

In a current interview, Malouda mentioned:

“I used to be at Stamford Bridge watching the Leicester sport within the FA Cup, Chelsea had been taking part in with a whole lot of depth, and the whole lot regarded sensible till it wasn’t. It solely takes one mistake to knock the arrogance out of this Chelsea crew after which the chaos begins.

“The Chelsea gamers must develop a capability to manage their feelings on the pitch. They don’t have the emotional stability that lets you preserve management of the sport, and that’s right down to the composition of the squad. If you selected to concentrate on a challenge with largely younger gamers, you’ll at all times discover this inconsistency as a result of all of those gamers are studying on the similar time.

“I feel a participant like Actual Madrid’s Toni Kroos is the kind of goal that Chelsea ought to be wanting to herald this summer time. He’s an skilled participant with a whole lot of pedigree. Chelsea want one or two gamers like Kroos. Gamers who’ve such a excessive soccer IQ that they’ll analyse each state of affairs on the pitch, take the appropriate selections and lead the crew. That is the kind of profile I’d be seeking to carry into the membership over the summer time. We want skilled, bold gamers who need to be a part of a really thrilling Chelsea challenge subsequent 12 months.”

So in a nutshell, he’s saying that Chelsea have signed inexperienced, uncooked, younger gamers, which is a reality, they usually have ignored confirmed expertise and high quality to stability it up, which can be a reality.

This is the reason I say the squad rebuild has been naive at finest. And as I say above, I’ve seen SO many individuals say precisely the identical factor. We lack leaders, robust mentalities, and gamers who’ve been there and completed it. Steadiness is SO vital, and we don’t have it, and as Malouda explains above, this has been so clear and evident in video games this season.

So if we are able to all see it, why can’t the choice makers? As I say, it looks as if they’re simply going all out to again their very own selections made in recruitment and don’t need to settle for that it’s failing. I’m positive the information says that we ought to be higher off than the place we’re proper now (it does, as Pochettino desperately drew on that too in a current interview). However the reality is, whether or not we ought to be higher within the league proper now or not, if we had been smarter in our recruitment and never ignored high quality expertise, then I really consider we’d be a lot better than we at the moment are, and higher than any information is perhaps claiming too.

For me, and for SO many others, it’s THAT easy, and Chelsea NEED to right it this summer time.
