We just don't seem willing to provide him a midfield capable of feeding him. Buying an all time great and not playing to his strengths is a tad fucking stupid but what can you do.

And he's not exactly 28 so we've probably missed our chance with this guy unless he decides to try again next year. Then again we'll probably spend 90m on wingers and buy some cheap midfielders to pad our bench.

Sad situation. Yes, he' bad, but he's also seeing very little of the ball due to the way we play. And he's clearly not as suited to slow build-ups as he is to All out attacking styles and counterattacks. It's a vicious cycle at this point.

That said, obviously the guy is gonna get a lot more goal points for us this season. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for a great turn of events in the CL knockout stages
You’re absolutely right there. He’s past his prime but the fact we can’t provide him with shit doesn’t help one bit. I said it before and I’ll say it again he has no reason to stay another season.

But he was much better last year with the same midfield

He wasnt hugging the touch line under allegri like he is under Sarri in a rigid system plus allegri used hes heading ability by sending in crosses something that rarely happens under sarri because hes wants to bore the other team to death with sides ways crab football or funnel everything into the middle.

That would still mean Ron is going to shoot and miss every ball in the box wouldn’t it?
A attacker that shoots what a sin what did he miss today ? You guys really do love inventing stuff like hes missing sitters every match and that the football/team isnt terrible and boring the stadium to death.
Hes in poor form right now but more than half the games played this season there is very little created from the genius attacking coach sarri which is why he was hired in the first place to improve the football and make it more exciting. Hes chelsea spell and now here are as dull as dish water.
