The Todd Game
What differentiates a top player from normal player is the head.. Top players know only two things. First is win and second is Win. Then they push themselves beyond being normal. They push themselves to be the best and they push the team to win. Attitude is infectious.
Thats the difference between Maguire and Silva for example. They are all talented though. Or Luke Shaw and Reece or Balotelli and Ibrahimovic.
When Mrs Silva wanted us to imagine if chelsea only had one silva in defence and another in mid and another in attack... this is what she meant...
Lets take a case of Reece. Reece is a defender, but everytime he played, we'd feel a winning energy amongst ourselves. You'd feel we had more chance of scoring and winning with him in the team than when out. Thats why whenever he got injured we all were prophets of doom on our own chances. Its both his talent and his mentality that was driving our hope.
So when you see some of us excited to see the new guys in, its because we are not just imagining what Mrs Silva wanted us to imagine... but because it looks like we are about to live these moments.
Against Liverpool, you'd feel the change. The positivity and the Urge from the guys. You'd feel everyone wanted the ball and everyone wanted to move the with the ball. You'd feel everyone wanted the ball in Liverpool's box. Everyone wanted to win. Including the normally lazy and slow guys in the team. For once a draw felt like a loss.
The time for people to move like they are cat walking in that midfield is over. Those who'd get 10 chances and have 0 attempts they will change or they will go. And also in that going you need to show yourself in matches otherwise no one would even want you.
When Kante joined Chelsea from Leicester he was more of a ball winner than a box to box midfielder. For Sarri, he had to adapt or die. and adapting he did becoming even more efficient.
Look at all these kids we have purchased or linked to. Look deeply into how they play. You will see that beside their talent, they also have three other things in common. Positive attitude, Winning mentality and Hardwork. Yes, Most of them are far from perfect but Attitude, Mentality and hardwork are always the difference when talented players fail or succeed.
Balotelli, Ravel Morrison,, Mido, Diof, Anderson, Dele Ali, Robinho, Giovanni Dos Santos, Are just some of the names that had the talent but lacked the three.
Who remembers the Depay cowboy man united entrance? With that stupid attitude, his United dream started on a wrong footing.. and despite a Plethora of talent, his success at big clubs is worth discussing.
What Real Madrid is doing now with already developed superstar players is what we are doing with a not yet to be known raw talents. In the next few months and years.. chelsea will be the team every young upcoming superstar will dream of...And when they all grow together, Chelsea will be the team to beat in generations.

Not going to say Iโm confident weโll get Enzo but thereโs surely no way Boehly will allow himself to get embarrassed publicly twice in one window. You wouldnโt go back for Enzo if you werenโt serious about securing him.

#RumourWatch
Declan Rice OR Caicedo
Both players have been linked to Arsenal and Chelsea.
Chelsea Spending in Todd's era is well know and therefore purchasing these two in the same transfer window is next to impossible. So it begs the question which of this two would represent a better value for Money or which of the two you would rather have as a priority.
Let me be clear that have always been a Rice guy. But this is not about me but about what would be good for Chelsea.
While Declan has been hyped obviously by the English media, Caicedos EPL incoming and growth has certainly been water under a bridge.
Make no mistake all these two are good. But none of them is close to the figures being mentioned. But if it's a heist that's unavoidable, we'd rather go with Caicedo instead.
Here is why.
Both these two are good at shadowing the defensive unit through marking and tackling. Both are good readers of the game but both enjoy separate individual technical brilliance.
What sets Rice apart is his distribution. Pinpoint precise passes from midfield to attack is his biggest strength. This is not Caicedos cup of tea and something that can be over looked if you have good ball playing central defenders like we do
Caicedo would be more suited to how Potter wants to play. While he is good in ball winning, Caicedo is also a good box to box midfielder. His ball carrying through short compacted spaces is better. He may not be good at pinpoint long range passes but Caicedo decision making and accuracy is better than Rice when it comes to penetrative attacking passes.
While attacking, Caicedo is also better in helping team retain possession inside and around the opponents box.
While both are good in taking long range shots, Caicedo is better in getting into attacking positions inside the box. This, with how we play is great in terms of provision of attacking depth.
To say however that any of them is worth 100M is the greatest heist and money trick that was hoping Chelsea had left behind.
But by trying to push Rice rumours, Arsenal could just be getting Chelsea into panic mode buying. Deep inside them,especially with how Arteta plays, their best fit and ultimate target could be Caicedo instead.
Instead of Rice, both because of technical and financial aspects, and without emotions Todd should match whatever Arsenal bid would be for Caicedo instead. Whatever it is we are sure Arsenal may never do anything close to 100M.
