To give you the benefit of a doubt, I think you have a different
yardstick in considering whether players are flops or not. However,
I do suspect you won't use that same yardstick with Chelsea
players.
A flop would be someone with no genuine contribution to the team,
which really isn't the case with Kuyt and Pennant. I believe
they've made more contribution to Liverpool than for eg (since you
claim to know Chelsea well), Ballack and Shevchenko. Decided not to
use any other players from other clubs because you'd probably just
pan all of them.
Since you talked about Drogba, he has played brilliantly this
season and truely deserves his African player of the year award. He
contribution to the team is immense and goes beyond scoring goals.
Chelsea tends to struggle at times without him. However, you can't
keep comparing everyone to him and claim they are flops because
they are not like Drogba this season. It's like comparing every
player to Ronaldino when he was having a good spell at
Barcelona.
Going by your standards on what a flop is, not to be anti-Chelsea
but to better illustrate to you, Chelsea would have more flops than
Liverpool. Ballack, Sheva, Boularhuz, Mikel, Ferreira would all be
flops too based on your yardstick. Although I wouldn't label all of
them flops, I'm just using the same standards with which you
criticise other players of other clubs.
Note; sometimes, it's not your opinion that irritates people but
rather your arrogant attitude and the you-know-it-all that makes
even your own Chelsea fans find you an eyesore. You have mellowed
and improved over time, but just be careful not to get carried away
at times.
