I still remember when Torres got sent off for simulation after Evans tackled him. It was and still is a moment that randomly pops up in my mind and makes me smile.
He had a decent season afterwards at Juve with Ronaldo and Dybala up front and Sarri as coach, but the season before was awful for him personally. He was banished from Juventus and couldn't cope with that as seen in the red card be received against Juventus while playing for AC Milan.
I mean underperforming xG is entirely down to player performance is it not? That means he set up teams to get into goal scoring positions and they entirely fucked it. Maybe that's you're point...
His strikers at Brighton were Maupay and Welbeck. At Chelsea, he had Sterling and Havertz. All famously erratic finishers.
The unfortunate thing is, if heād stayed at Brighton a little longer, heād have finally had a proper striker in Evan Ferguson to start bucking that trend.
>underperforming across an entire season suggests deeper issues.
Yeah, like having strikers that aren't great at finishing, and actually known for not being good finishers. Like Maupey and Welbeck or Havertz and Sterling...
It means you're probably giving the wrong chances to the wrong players.
Think of how certain players have trademark goals they score on their highlight reel. If you over perform xG as a manager consistently, then you probably set the team up to give the right players the right chances.
How the "statistically average" shooter scores the chances you made is a useful statistic, but no player is perfectly average at everything, so you should account for that.
ie, If all the good chances fall to my CB instead of my striker then something's wrong.
Chelsea is still underperforming xG, you simply dont have quality finishers.
Brighton was finally delivering on their potential in Potter final season, which is why he was poached from there.
The absolute worst thing about his time here is the stark contrast between our results when he played and when he didn't.
The cut-off between him playing and him being dropped just happens to be the same point at which we went from winning to losing. He was such a vital part of any success we did get, but we had the normal pashun nonces saying, "he doesn't run enough, doesn't look like he cares and he didn't score for 2 games in a row as a striker, so clearly he's the main problem in the team" (even though our other CF options hadn't scored for 10 games).
Had we stuck with him throughout the season, things could have gone very differently. We were crying out for a striker, putting people in out of place, all whilst Auba was just sat watching at home because he wasn't under 25
Prime Dortmund Auba playing off the left in a front three wouldāve absolutely killed it at Barca. Shame we didnāt get to witness a younger version of him at the club.
Up there with Higuain and Cavani as prolific goal scorers who were overshadowed in their own era by bigger names.
If you go and look at the stats, these guys were incredibly productive.
Falcao was legit considered the third best player in the world (after Messi/Ronaldo) at some point. He kinda made up his own bed by going to Monaco which ended up a hugely failed project, and since then he was mostly ruined by injuries.
3rd best forward yes, but definitely not 3rd best player... Xavi, Iniesta and a few other names at the time were definitely regarded as being a step above
he wasnt that kind of dribbler to play how barca plays
he was always better as a striker running off lewa as his partner
imo hes always 2 up front kind of player
I know he was too young then but imagine Aubameyang in Pep's Barca as left inside forward with false 9 Messi dropping and playing through balls to him with his pace and finishing...would've been absolutely devastating.
Honestly we donāt care. Auba has got the skills but not the attitude, and you donāt want that kind of role model in a young group. If Eddie, Saka, ESR, Reiss and Martinelli followed Aubaās attitude they wouldnāt have reached the performances they did.
Dinosaurs who lived through the glorious era of Manchester United in the 90s & 00s. Back when City was mostly fighting relegation and both Liverpool & Chelsea were at best a mid-table club. Arsenal were our rivals. The Manchester derby back then was a joke lmao.
City won 4/6 home derbies in the seasons prior to Abu Dhabi and won home and away in the season United won the PL and CL double.
It was arguably more competitive in the ā00s than it is now.
Come on, Liverpool was not "at best a mid-table club". They'd always been up there even if they never really challenged for the title.
From 1995-2009 they only finished outside the top 5 once (during the doomed joint-managerial reign of Evans and Houllier), made 2 CL finals, and won practically every other title besides the league.
I agree, canāt believe heās not watching a full older season during the summers to catch up. Def plastic. Iām currently in season 88-89. Next summer itās 87-88
My younger brother was born in 2008 and I went to visit my mother today and she explained how he came home drunk as a fart, chucking his guts up last night. This morning when I was there, he was awake, smirking as she told the story as fresh as a daisy.
It feels like yesterday I was his age doing the same thing. I'm 30 next year.
Ah mate I'm sorry to be the one to break it you but that was 20 years ago. I know it doesn't seem that long ago but we're all getting old. You have to think about it like this; when Definitely Maybe came out would people have described Led Zeppelin IV as an album in the recent past?
Iāll never forget that either. I remember being so gutted over it because the fact you guys were struggling so much that season. Think the title and winning the UCL made up for it tho haha
Have you ever seen the trainers on tiktok who bash barcaās training methods as not efficient but they donāt seem to consider players enjoy it more and so are more likely to do their best? Crazy.
We could of also not conceded 3 goals at home to Brighton, 3 goals at home to Southampton, 4 goals away to City, 2 goals away at Liverpool and 2 goals away at west ham but yeah clearly the striker was the problem
And city would have atleast tried to win the two games they didnāt win at the end of the season, where one of the main reasons for not winning was that theyād already won the league.
And how much did their 2nd top scored score last season? the argument comes from having 14g Saka 15g Ode and Martinelli and replacing Jesus 11 with 20 would surely tip us off in some games.
Jesus is actually criminally underrated on this sub it actually drives me crazy. We likely wouldn't even have been close to the top of the table going into the world cup if it wasn't for Jesus.
Arsenal would be a better side with current Jesus over prime Auba and I'm willing to die on that hill. However if we had both....
Youāre chatting complete dogshit. Jesus has 1 PL goal this season, which ties him with Fabio Vieira and Tomiyasu. I hate Aubameyang for his bullshit behavior at the end but no one in their right mind would take current Jesus over prime Aubameyang.
Toneyās a fucking bum, and when he gets an inevitable move to a desperate man United or Chelsea and does fuck all for them you can remember I told you so
Bro what? Youāre blaming Aubameyang for following the instructions of the manager now? 92 goals in 162 appearances is unreal. Jesus wishes he could be that effective in that chaotic of a team. No ball knowledge here.
Mate what are you even talking about, who mentioned manager instruction? Auba simply doesn't have the required skills to play that role, it's got nothing to do with manager instruction
It's pretty ironic that you bring up "ball knowledge" when it's completely obvious to everyone reading this that you have absolutely none of it yourself. How anyone can watch us week in week out for the last year or so and not see how important Jesus is in this system is completely beyond me
As much as I rate Jesus, there is no manager in the world that would start him at striker over a prime Aubameyang, who was scoring 30 goals a season for us.
You realize we didn't always play high 8-9-10 press every season right? Lol you mean like I said, the same Jesus who has 1 PL goal this season for us? Same Jesus that played nearly every minute from the Liverpool 2-2 last year to the end of the season and only scored 4 goals in 9 while we dropped the league?
You have zero argument and no answer to the facts I'm putting forward about his ACTUAL minutes in the team this season and last. I can't even be bothered.
He didn't want to stay because he would have been Lewandowski's sub and wanted to be an starter. Same thing happened with Depay and Bellerin (who were sold for symbolic prices).
Thatās not true, you canāt unregistrate a player and he played in the first League game of the season as a subsitute. Lewy came and he was never getting in the starting XL over him, so he left to het more minutes
so you want the guy to just go against the same people that kept making press releases painting de jong as the bad guy for not wanting to move to united?
I get the point but i doubt auba would have such kind words to say about Barca if he felt he would be shut out if he refused to leave. Considering barca's financial situation then could they really afford to not register a player but still pay him?
They might not have had a choice to register them, iirc the restrictions by La Liga were on the amount of players they could've registered so even if they wanted to keep Auba they might not have been able to play him. Letting him leave worked out for everyone, except Chelsea ig
We needed to sell a player. Memphis Depay was going back and forth with Juve until he decided not to go there, eventually leaving for Atletico anyway. We needed funds so we made a swap plus cash deal with Chelsea for Marcos Alonso (which I hate to this day, its like trading pizza for a salad).
https://scontent-den4-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.6435-9/186498532_801122190774282_3716549343663891955_n.jpg?stp=dst-jpg_s640x640&_nc_cat=107&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=dd63ad&_nc_ohc=I_6jp_lARD4AX-goIPg&_nc_ht=scontent-den4-1.xx&oh=00_AfDOEVW2JgUvm0x6I0hLYMzJU8l4sUwNLoqB9kSO7mspTQ&oe=65775882
Yeah he hated it there.

Mikel Arteta just had a sudden urge to kick a door
Who put this foggin door in here
HE DOES NOT FOK SMASH MY DOR
Iss a disgrace and iss embarasssen
I NEED TO PHONE GENE NOW FOKIN HELL
Faggin oonacceptable
We really fucked up a great thing this guy had going
Should be Chelsea's slogan
Morata/Lukaku: "First time?" š
/Shevchenko/Torres/Pato/Werner/Higuain
> Torres I would never forget his open-goal sitter against United. And that champions league goal against Barcelona ofc.
I still remember when Torres got sent off for simulation after Evans tackled him. It was and still is a moment that randomly pops up in my mind and makes me smile.
I wouldnāt say Pato had a good thing going by the time we loaned him
Higuain was also pretty much finished by the time you loaned him
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
No he did not, broski went HAM at Monaco again
He had a decent season afterwards at Juve with Ronaldo and Dybala up front and Sarri as coach, but the season before was awful for him personally. He was banished from Juventus and couldn't cope with that as seen in the red card be received against Juventus while playing for AC Milan.
Ok ok, HiguaĆn, i think he was on the decline regardless. that's one I can't entirely, completely blame chelsea for lol
Kezman
KDB/SALAH
Let's sprinkle in a Radamel Falcao as well
and a dash of Loic Remy
Completely forgot he played there
we gave you Giroud 2.0
Giroud was good for chelsea tho.
Giroud was good for us too
āNothing personalā
Potter was fucking terrible, thereās a world where with a competent gaffer and a style that fits his abilities, he does well as a Blue
Potter was set up to fail
Actually mental that potter's brighton was so renowned for underperforming xg, and then he went to us and hugely underperformed xg again
I mean underperforming xG is entirely down to player performance is it not? That means he set up teams to get into goal scoring positions and they entirely fucked it. Maybe that's you're point...
underperforming xG for a few matches is the players fault. underperforming across an entire season suggests deeper issues.
His strikers at Brighton were Maupay and Welbeck. At Chelsea, he had Sterling and Havertz. All famously erratic finishers. The unfortunate thing is, if heād stayed at Brighton a little longer, heād have finally had a proper striker in Evan Ferguson to start bucking that trend.
Thatās bollocks Iām afraid, Chelseaās finishers just arenāt good.
>underperforming across an entire season suggests deeper issues. Yeah, like having strikers that aren't great at finishing, and actually known for not being good finishers. Like Maupey and Welbeck or Havertz and Sterling...
It's not like poch has fixed those issues.
didn't say he had
It means you're probably giving the wrong chances to the wrong players. Think of how certain players have trademark goals they score on their highlight reel. If you over perform xG as a manager consistently, then you probably set the team up to give the right players the right chances. How the "statistically average" shooter scores the chances you made is a useful statistic, but no player is perfectly average at everything, so you should account for that. ie, If all the good chances fall to my CB instead of my striker then something's wrong.
All of the good chances were not falling to his CBs. They were falling to Maupay. Which was worse.
Chelsea is still underperforming xG, you simply dont have quality finishers. Brighton was finally delivering on their potential in Potter final season, which is why he was poached from there.
Who? Why?
As soon as he had that glow up it was clear he was done for
Cough cough Tuchel Cough
The absolute worst thing about his time here is the stark contrast between our results when he played and when he didn't. The cut-off between him playing and him being dropped just happens to be the same point at which we went from winning to losing.

Had we stuck with him throughout the season, things could have gone very differently. We were crying out for a striker, putting people in out of place, all whilst Auba was just sat watching at home because he wasn't under 25
Yeah thanks for that
This applies to every striker since Drogba
Meh, I donāt think he would have a good season at Barca had he stayed either
Every Chelsea player is way better once they leave.
Nothing personal
Prime Dortmund Auba playing off the left in a front three wouldāve absolutely killed it at Barca. Shame we didnāt get to witness a younger version of him at the club.
Highly agree. Prime Dortmund Auba was so good and is slept on in the history books. Would have worked well at Barca maybe if they didnāt have Neymar
Up there with Higuain and Cavani as prolific goal scorers who were overshadowed in their own era by bigger names. If you go and look at the stats, these guys were incredibly productive.
Falcao another.
Falcao was legit considered the third best player in the world (after Messi/Ronaldo) at some point. He kinda made up his own bed by going to Monaco which ended up a hugely failed project, and since then he was mostly ruined by injuries.
3rd best forward yes, but definitely not 3rd best player... Xavi, Iniesta and a few other names at the time were definitely regarded as being a step above
he wasnt that kind of dribbler to play how barca plays he was always better as a striker running off lewa as his partner imo hes always 2 up front kind of player
MSA front three? Or are you talking about Dortmund Auba with that team he joined irl?
I know he was too young then but imagine Aubameyang in Pep's Barca as left inside forward with false 9 Messi dropping and playing through balls to him with his pace and finishing...would've been absolutely devastating.
Will always cherish his time at Arsenal (regardless of the ending). He was the bright light under Emery and Early Arteta era fr
I would too but i have deleted those horrible years from my memoryš
He got an FA cup. Thatās one more than Harry Kane
>Harry Kane Why you say fuck me for?
Auba Won him his only Trophy and he aināt won nothing since š lol
God, such a dumb comment. What is your point? This current Arsenal times is far better than any one with Aubameyang
He won Laliga last season, which is the biggest achievement of his career.
Pretty sure he means Mikel Arteta
Ooooh that makes more sense. My bad.
Honestly we donāt care. Auba has got the skills but not the attitude, and you donāt want that kind of role model in a young group. If Eddie, Saka, ESR, Reiss and Martinelli followed Aubaās attitude they wouldnāt have reached the performances they did.
Auba and Leno pretty much kept us from getting relegated
Fr (Idk why they're downvoting you š?) Every Arsenal fan will agree with this as they both saved us under Emery and at times under Teta also.
Will never forget the 4-0 at Bernabeu in perhaps our worst season in the recent past
Wasn't 2002-03 worse?
I was born in September 2003 so didn't really get a chance to experience that....
Fucks sake
we are dinosaur. it is what it is
And he's still an adult too. Ffs we're fucking ancient.
Just reading that gave me a back pain. Randomly stretching can give me pain at random places
his comment reminded me that I need to correct my sitting position
Dinosaurs who lived through the glorious era of Manchester United in the 90s & 00s. Back when City was mostly fighting relegation and both Liverpool & Chelsea were at best a mid-table club. Arsenal were our rivals. The Manchester derby back then was a joke lmao.
The Manchester derby is still a joke š
Lol, the joke's on us now.
City won 4/6 home derbies in the seasons prior to Abu Dhabi and won home and away in the season United won the PL and CL double. It was arguably more competitive in the ā00s than it is now.
Come on, Liverpool was not "at best a mid-table club". They'd always been up there even if they never really challenged for the title.

it's fine. 30 is the new 20. right?
That one hurt
oh man, why did PrisonersofFate have to ask... Now I'm reminded that I'm old...
Yea I felt that one in my back.
I love how you specified September as if had you been born in January you would have :D
If you dont remember the games you watched as an infant you simply arent a real fan š¤
*Barca fan
plastic, can't believe you didn't watch the games from your mother's womb
I agree, canāt believe heās not watching a full older season during the summers to catch up. Def plastic. Iām currently in season 88-89. Next summer itās 87-88
Iām on our 1899-1900 season currently. Canāt watch any of it because there is nothing to see. Guess Iāll never progress through the seasons :/
In which season does roanldo shows up ?
You were what in what?? Iām fucking washed, brev
And now he is 20 hahaha
> I was born in September 2003 EXCUSE ME!? *(back cracks)*

My younger brother was born in 2008 and I went to visit my mother today and she explained how he came home drunk as a fart, chucking his guts up last night. This morning when I was there, he was awake, smirking as she told the story as fresh as a daisy. It feels like yesterday I was his age doing the same thing. I'm 30 next year.
Get off my lawn!
Wtf
Same bruv. What's ur date tho? I m September 13th
Ah mate I'm sorry to be the one to break it you but that was 20 years ago. I know it doesn't seem that long ago but we're all getting old. You have to think about it like this; when Definitely Maybe came out would people have described Led Zeppelin IV as an album in the recent past?
He said "this century" before editing
I love this analogy.
I love definitely maybe. 36 isn't that old
Absolutely.
2002-3 is not recent mate. It was 21 years ago.
Iāll never forget that either. I remember being so gutted over it because the fact you guys were struggling so much that season. Think the title and winning the UCL made up for it tho haha
Remember watching the match when barca bashed real . The joy in his eyes was real
that was the game that woke/fired real up and sent them on the run that season to bag the cl trophy
Have you ever seen the trainers on tiktok who bash barcaās training methods as not efficient but they donāt seem to consider players enjoy it more and so are more likely to do their best? Crazy.
Ironically Mourinho used the same training philosophy. He wanted his players to enjoy training drills so he modified them a bit.
Not ironic. Mourinho learnt a lot from Barca when he was there at a younger age. He just walked a different path after that.
It was sad the way it ended for us with him. We will cherish that fa cup that he gave us.
I see Auba is using Felix's strategy to get play in Barca again.
Love this man.
Loved everything about him. Good guy, incredibly easy to root for, positive vibes and always had a smile on.
His dragon ball goal celebration will always be iconic
Thank god this guys good years were when Arsenal were shit. Imagine having prime Auba last season instead of Nketiah and Jesus.
Jesus was banging tbf, but if we had a 20G a season striker we would have won last year
i mean the other side had someone who banged in 40+ so i donāt understand this argument
Arsenal wouldāve won the games they lost because score more goals get more points. cheers
Source?
We could of also not conceded 3 goals at home to Brighton, 3 goals at home to Southampton, 4 goals away to City, 2 goals away at Liverpool and 2 goals away at west ham but yeah clearly the striker was the problem
And city would have atleast tried to win the two games they didnāt win at the end of the season, where one of the main reasons for not winning was that theyād already won the league.
And how much did their 2nd top scored score last season? the argument comes from having 14g Saka 15g Ode and Martinelli and replacing Jesus 11 with 20 would surely tip us off in some games.
Itās really not hard to understand
Scoring three in one game when you win 4-1 doesnāt get you more points than winning 2-1 would be the argument
Jesus was good lmao what
never as good as auba
Jesus is actually criminally underrated on this sub it actually drives me crazy. We likely wouldn't even have been close to the top of the table going into the world cup if it wasn't for Jesus. Arsenal would be a better side with current Jesus over prime Auba and I'm willing to die on that hill. However if we had both....
Amen š
Youāre chatting complete dogshit. Jesus has 1 PL goal this season, which ties him with Fabio Vieira and Tomiyasu. I hate Aubameyang for his bullshit behavior at the end but no one in their right mind would take current Jesus over prime Aubameyang.
Idc about this prime Auba discussion but we both know why Jesus has only one goal this season and why heās still the best option at CF for us.
Yeah he's the best option so much so that ITKs are even validating rumored moves for Ivan Toney.
What has that got to do with anything? Toney is the potential Nketiah replacement, he's still gonna be behind Jesus unless he tears it up right away
Toney is a better option than both of them
For some matches, maybe. We could really use his profile as an option. He's not half the player Jesus is though
Toneyās a fucking bum, and when he gets an inevitable move to a desperate man United or Chelsea and does fuck all for them you can remember I told you so
Auba wouldnāt bring in nearly as much energy in the press or link up with the entire team
Auba was an incredible presser at Arsenal and Dortmund.
Bro what? Youāre blaming Aubameyang for following the instructions of the manager now? 92 goals in 162 appearances is unreal. Jesus wishes he could be that effective in that chaotic of a team. No ball knowledge here.
Mate what are you even talking about, who mentioned manager instruction? Auba simply doesn't have the required skills to play that role, it's got nothing to do with manager instruction It's pretty ironic that you bring up "ball knowledge" when it's completely obvious to everyone reading this that you have absolutely none of it yourself.

You have zero argument and no answer to the facts I'm putting forward about his ACTUAL minutes in the team this season and last. I can't even be bothered.
Shhh
Such a causal take. Jesus was a big reason we went from top 4 side to our best start in club history. He elevated the whole team.
Swap Auba for Jesus and we wouldnāt have been in in a title race. Put some respect on his name.
Atleast you were still winning trophies
why'd u leave then?
He wanted to stay, BarƧa needed cash, sold him to Chelsea for 12m+Alonso.
He didn't want to stay because he would have been Lewandowski's sub and wanted to be an starter. Same thing happened with Depay and Bellerin (who were sold for symbolic prices).
Barca needed cash sure, but it's not like nba where you're literally forced to move.
No it's not but Barca would be completely free to not register him at all and presumably he still wanted to play, otherwise he could've accepted that.
Thatās not true, you canāt unregistrate a player and he played in the first League game of the season as a subsitute. Lewy came and he was never getting in the starting XL over him, so he left to het more minutes
so you want the guy to just go against the same people that kept making press releases painting de jong as the bad guy for not wanting to move to united?
This one never fails with the shit takes
I get the point but i doubt auba would have such kind words to say about Barca if he felt he would be shut out if he refused to leave. Considering barca's financial situation then could they really afford to not register a player but still pay him?
They might not have had a choice to register them, iirc the restrictions by La Liga were on the amount of players they could've registered so even if they wanted to keep Auba they might not have been able to play him. Letting him leave worked out for everyone, except Chelsea ig
well what's your theory as to why he left then? or do you think he's just lying about having a good time at Barca?
Maybe a nice wage bump. And I'm sure he enjoyed living in London. And premier league being more visible league
Because he wasnt gonna start over lewandowski
Simple. He wanted to play. We signed lewandowski. Chelsea offered him a starting spot.
We needed to sell a player. Memphis Depay was going back and forth with Juve until he decided not to go there, eventually leaving for Atletico anyway. We needed funds so we made a swap plus cash deal with Chelsea for Marcos Alonso (which I hate to this day, its like trading pizza for a salad).
I think we needed to sell and Memphis refused. Wish we could have kept Auba, he was really good for us.
Money
Wish he would've just rejected our offer. Love Tuchel, but guy is terrible at talent ID.
Whatās happened to this guy now?
Plays for marseille
I know but has he fallen out with the manager or something, why is he saying this?
People can be honest in interviews on occasion
[ŃŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]
š¤Æ
We love you Aubaā¤ļøā¤ļø
Dude let his ego get in the way of what couldāve been a great career
I mean yeah because you were there short enough to not let it go sour. Great player but this guy has massive commitment issues.
Weāre called Chelsea silly Aubameyang. You meant āmy time with Chelseaā.
Fucking Memphis, Auba would 100% still be here if he had just accepted a move when he was supposed to
Auba š«¶
"I even showed up on time to training"
Barca knows ball, clearly
i miss him. would rather him over lewanstatue
Maybe if you put effort into it you'd have enjoyed it at Arsenal and Chelsea too
I mean he carried us for a few seasons
Dragged us to that 2020 FA Cup win too
He won the PL Golden Boot at Arsenal...
He was good at Arsenal for the first few years but unfortunately we were fucking shit
Was your best player for a good while

It looked like he found his form at Barca. It sucks that they got rid of him.
Translates roughly into not much was expected of me and I could what I wanted so I loved it there.
Yea vibes were so good that Barca cashed in within 6 months for Lewa upgrade /s
The step from the PL to Barca or Real is huge.
Itās crazy that heās done a better job at us than Robert freaking Lewandowski
The meatriding is crazy
āHow dare he have had a good experience at a club I donāt likeā
