4 reasons why Chelsea are struggling

Another game, another defeat, a fate Graham Potter is desperately trying to avoid. But why the chaotic scenes at Chelsea, a club labelled by many as the best team in London over the past 20 years and currently, the only club in that area of London who have won the Champions League.

It's easy to blame the manager, his coaching staffs or even one or two players for the misfortune of the team. But the truth has to be told, Chelsea's problem is a collective one not a personal one. Nobody should be blamed for it.

Here are the five reasons why Chelsea are struggling:

1. Injury to top players-

This season have been really tough for Potter and his team. The club are currently nursing 10 players back to fitness. The manager is forced to play players who were mainly set aside for Caraboa or FA Cup matches.

2. Tactical maneuver and adaptability-

Potter system requires a lot of tactical awareness, pressing, good passing rhythm and off course defending. Chelsea's current team can't give him that.

3. Pierre Emerick Aubameyang is a flop-

The former Arsenal, Barcelona and now Chelsea striker has woefully paid to live up to expectation. A player of his caliber can't go missing now that Chelsea needs him more than ever. He has to recapture that brilliant form soon rather than later.

4. New management with different ideas-

Cheslea's new owner Todd Boehly is desperately trying his best to recapture the glory days of his past predecessor.

He wants to put Chelsea back at the top of world football, win as much trophies as possible and off course, make money. He doesn't just want to win trophies; he wants to see his club play good football.

Graham Potter needs time to implement that and soon, the fans will delighted the sack button was pushed to early.

To put it plainly, Alonso had to develop a world class team capable of preventing Bayern Munich from setting a record with 13 straight league titles.

A Better Nigeria: What the Government must do to end food crises

What is wrong with Nigeria and its people? A sane question most people have asked for decades but little have figured out the problems. Those who have the amicable solution and well placed in positions to truly effect change are either been rigged out, threatened or even killed. Tragic you would say, but there's more to the complex web of Nigeria's challenges and food crises is one of them which the incumbent president must deal with immediately. Before taking over the mantle of leadership, President Bola Ahmed Tinubu made a series of promises and swiftly took action by removing fuel subsidy in his first day in office. Taking that action was bold and cold because no alternative was given. The effect was an immediate increase in fuel which resulted in an increase in the cost of transportation of both perishable and imperishable goods. Businesses which where reliant on generators for power packed up while well established businesses were forced to retrench workers or pa...
