As you’ll know, I’ll typically take an ‘on the fence’ strategy as a result of on the whole 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 each side and search for stability the place I can. So for this reason you’ll typically 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 flawed with that in any respect, in fact.
However I’ve seen on this neighborhood, it’s not typically that total we take that stance. We frequently decide a aspect and again our opinions on it. We frequently sit on one aspect 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 believe 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 happy 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 happy
- 18% wouldn’t be too completely happy
- 11% not completely happy in any respect
- 2% very completely happy
In order you possibly can see, we simply don’t know, and I assume 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 but it surely’s additionally a little bit of an unpredictable state of affairs.
I don’t know if that’s a superb factor or a foul 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 possibility I’ve to be sincere and clear about that.
However on the similar time, I’ve numerous perception in Delap and do hope he proves me proper and cancels out these fears!
