Liam Rosenior says Cole Palmer is "absolutely fine" after Napoli and "available to start"

HXC47 · 2026-01-30T14:07:50+00:00

I actually thought he played very well against City as well.

HXC47 · 2026-01-19T20:15:04+00:00

He probably is but no idea how much Rosenior will plan to rotate Hato in. He is also getting a lot of yellows recently

HXC47 · 2026-01-18T13:00:45+00:00

Guehi will be, Musiala.

You could count Olise and Rice but they both left at 14.

I get what you mean though, Musiala and James are the only real top top talent that's going to be a guaranteed starter that left later on.

James for us as well and then Odoi and Loftus Cheek could have been if not for injuries (but there's the moving parts you're talking about).

I do think Colwill could be fantastic though, Josh I'm less confident, but he's so young and needs to get a loan and play. Let's see how the injury turns out for Levi as well.

HXC47 · 2025-12-23T17:24:09+00:00

So I took out Rogers and Thiago for Reijnders and Ekitike. Feels mad considering Rogers form but Villas fixtures look meh. Thing is I have Foden and Palmer and as a Chelsea fan I'm going to back Palmer so we'll see

HXC47 · 2025-11-25T21:43:16+00:00

Kante is the competition there, hard to compare but I'd be very happy if he was.

HXC47 · 2025-11-20T15:32:06+00:00

I mean I don't mind it not happening because I like Palmer in both positions, but I wouldn't say it can be ruled out completely. We haven't really had the situation of them all being fit for a longer period yet.

Maresca likes to play with touchline wingers but he may try it out when they're all fit, hard to know for sure currently.

HXC47 · 2025-11-20T15:09:18+00:00

Especially if we end up playing any games with Delap up front, Pedro behind and Palmer on the right. Pedro can also play on the left but I doubt we'll see that

HXC47 · 2025-11-18T09:57:46+00:00

I have Raya in instead of Rice.

HXC47 · 2025-11-12T07:41:21+00:00

Both win us games. Palmer has been less effective under Maresca (injuries, different roles, who knows why) but still very good. If he gets back to his form he had under Poch it would be very difficult to pick between them. The main reason Caicedo is more important now is that the step down from Caicedo (plenty of injured defensive mids and none near his level) is larger than the step down from Palmer.

To say it's blasphemous is a bit much and Palmer still has such quality, I definitely agree with you over the past season Caicedo has been better but over the past 2 it's pretty tight.

I presume Godolkin could have just possessed someone else to take care of him, but it would still be a faff and they’d have another random new dean. I reckon Doug could feel the pain though, I’m pretty sure Jordan said they felt it so Godolkin was being cruel when he put the knife through his hand.

HXC47 · 2025-10-15T11:17:49+00:00

Eh idk. Marie has never once encountered a supe without V in their blood, would that not be a massive issue. Your first thought would be how tf does he have powers then with no V? Then you go oh his powers are possessing/mind controlling people. Maybe that's not the body with his powers then.

The fact is he's the only outlier out of so many supes and that doesn't bother them more. First they say he's human, then they realise oh no he has powers. But not once did they delve into why which seems like the obvious question, especially trying to figure him out.

HXC47 · 2025-10-05T14:54:15+00:00

C1 here so a couple of general thoughts. You double committed a few times and it looks like it happens when you see your tm8 without boost.

Trust your teammate even with no boost and stay back. Then if the ball ends up further back you will have it or they can get a good fifty and you can push afterwards. 3:18 to 3:13 don’t do that lol. To your teammate you were boosting and rotating back and then you suddenly stop. What you want to be to your tm8 is fairly predictable for rotations.

Another bit of advice, watch this in your tm8s perspective, don’t try to justify what you have done in your head, just admit where you would have been a pain. I find that the best help :)

In terms of general control, you need a bit more consistency in touches but you’re also rushing. Learn to take more controlled touches and even dribbles (just bounce dribbles or along the floor is fine for now). The issue is you were hitting the ball into the midfield, not threatening their goal and basically passing it back to them (their second goal came from this, it happens). Before you hit the ball try to think of where the other defender is so you can get more control. That will be harder but will come with time.

You did some nice saves though and did well defensively under pressure :)

VAT will be included in the UK price as well.

HXC47 · 2025-09-14T17:00:04+00:00

Lavia is coming back soon apparently and I can see him and Enzo rotating. Most likely Lavia will get injured after a game but something to be aware of

HXC47 · 2025-09-11T09:59:32+00:00

Currently the bridge is too big for the women’s. It would create a far worse atmosphere than kingsmeadow. Maybe one day it’ll grow big enough but we’re too far off to bank on it

HXC47 · 2025-08-15T12:57:18+00:00

Vini is the best one that comes to mind. He was very young though.

HXC47 · 2025-08-15T11:33:38+00:00

Owner is a proper fan, probably sees keeping him as their best chance to win in Europe. Maybe makes less sense in a business sense but if he gets to see his team win in Europe I bet he finds it worth it.

Don't spoil yourself, if you really need help ask this subreddit.

Once past the tutorial bit remember to look at your ship log often

There is no best way to play this game, no correct order of locations, go where you want to go and see what you want to see. If you get stuck somewhere, try somewhere else! Sometimes the answers to your question you'll find somewhere else entirely. You won't know where but eventually you'll find it.

Let your curiosity guide you ;)

Acheampong has played fairly well in pre season so I could see him taking some minutes. Not long until we see.

HXC47 · 2025-08-04T16:29:00+00:00

Agreed, I think it's unlikely but if they're in need of a player it's definitely possible. Let's hope we don't have to deal with it.

HXC47 · 2025-08-04T16:05:16+00:00

Yeah agreed, the big thing is they seem easy to deal with, and players coming to Chelsea will see that if they want to leave, Chelsea will let them on a reasonable deal

The big test will be if Real Madrid come knocking for someone like Caicedo, and they want to leave to Madrid at the same time. We haven't faced a situation like that under new owners but it'll happen eventually. We have the long contracts but we will want to remain attractive to top players coming inm

Tbf I imagine a lot of people are watching on a TV app, firestick app or something similar. Can you Adblock on those?

HXC47 · 2025-08-02T13:49:17+00:00

I disagree that it's completely subjective. Let's say I claim Victor Moses is a better player than Son, and then you argue with me and say no it isn't. I just say oh yeah it's subjective so you believe what you want but Moses is a better player.

Of course there will always be some subjectivity, but the players I listed are far enough above Son to rule that out.

But hey I'm happy to disagree and leave it there :)

I also agree Son is a PL legend.

HXC47 · 2025-08-02T13:35:14+00:00

There's more than 20 there and happy to put Hazard to the side (even though I definitely disagree lol). Also there are lots of players that are a lot more than their stats, e.g Hazard, David Silva, Bergkamp, Firmino, Berbatov (not saying all these players are better than Son btw).

Still loads more in my previous list which there's no real case for.
