As you’ll know, I’ll usually take an ‘on the fence’ strategy as a result of usually in life I’m simply very balanced in my ideas and opinions, and that carries over the soccer as nicely.
Feelings can at all times get the higher of me within the second, however I’ll at all times attempt to see either side and search for stability the place I can. So for this reason you’ll usually see me sat on the fence about some issues, not all issues, in no way, however generally I can’t name it both approach so I’ll perch myself on the fence. Nothing mistaken with that in any respect, in fact.
However I’ve observed on this group, it isn’t usually that total we take that stance. We regularly decide a facet and again our opinions on it. We regularly sit on one facet or the opposite of that fence, with only a few sitting on it.
However with the striker state of affairs at Chelsea proper now, we’re very a lot all sat on the fence and actually, I feel the fence is about to fall down because of the weight on it!
Yesterday, I requested you all whether or not you’d be completely satisfied IF, and it’s nonetheless a giant if as a result of Chelsea are nonetheless contemplating a brand new striker this summer season and have been engaged on Hugo Ekitike from Frankfurt, Chelsea don’t signal one other new striker in addition to Liam Delap this summer season and we go into the brand new season with him and Nicolas Jackson as our striker choices.
The outcomes are as follows:
48% are on the fence
21% can be fairly completely satisfied
18% wouldn’t be too completely satisfied
11% not completely satisfied in any respect
2% very completely satisfied
In order you may see, we simply don’t know, and I suppose that’s as a result of solely time will inform. Delap remains to be a bit uncooked, Jackson is Jackson and we all know his strengths in addition to his large weaknesses. Delap has the potential to bang however it’s additionally a little bit of an unpredictable state of affairs.
I don’t know if that’s a great factor or a nasty factor at this level? I really like Delap, however I can’t say I’d be too assured going into the brand new season with simply him and Jackson as our striker choice I’ve to be sincere and clear about that.
However on the similar time, I’ve loads of perception in Delap and do hope he proves me proper and cancels out these fears!
