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.

Educational system in Nigeria is dangerous: Why lectures are responsible for 70% of adult suicide in schools

The troubling questions most Nigerians refuse to ask themselves probably due to its complicated and complex nature is 'why are Nigeria students taking their own lives in schools?'  First thought that will undoubtedly come to mind is the students' financial and economic struggles as a result of the badly managed government. Nigeria's current problems include bribery and corruption, senile leadership, food insecurity, inflation, fuel difficulties, Forex challenges, and, most cruelly, widespread thievery by public officials. Second thought could be social, or peer pressure, emotional blackmail or relationship matters. Third reason is the radical policy of the incumbent president Bola Ahmed Tinubu who ensured subsidized education was eradicated and replaced with student loan.  But the major reason which has contributed more deaths than the aforementioned is the role of lecturers and other public officials in the educational system.  Do you know that once a student is admitt...

Nigeria lies: Why Boko Haram, Banditry and Kidnapping might never end

Insecurity in Nigeria is a business venture for top officials who have brilliantly covered up their tracks irrespective of the carnage it has cost over the years.  Due to Nigeria's extremely corrupt political structure, certain officials who were unfortunate enough to have their photo taken dining with a Boko Haram leader have risen to the second-highest position in the government and have stifled any idea of conducting any investigation.  Ahead of him, a different official declared with audacity that "an attack on Boko Haram is an attack on the northern part of Nigeria" and demanded the liberation of the group. Regretfully, since 2012, this region has lost about $250 billion in investments and lands, and over 200,000 people have died. Horrifically, that same individual rose to become the president of Nigeria and left a devastating legacy in his 8-year tenure. NTS reported that over 63111 died in his 8-year-time, the report is clearly stated in Vanguard Newspaper 6th June...

Ending poverty: 5 excellent ways the federal government can end poverty in Nigeria

Everywhere you go around the world they're people who are impoverished, broke, dependent on the state and in some pathetic state, neglected by the state for one reason or the other.  Some countries have drastically reduced poverty by ensuring the needs of the people are meant by investing in both capital and human resources while other countries have struggled badly to achieve similar state despite investing in trillions.  Nigeria falls into the second category; despite spending trillions of naira on both capital and human resourcs, 75% of its citizens still live in extreme poverty. What steps must the government take thereafter to eradicate or significantly reduce poverty. Surprising right, but they're much deeper reasons why Nigeria is a failed state and what must be done to combat poverty.  1. The federal government must empower ambitious Nigerian and stop over bloating the ministry with incompetent staffs- People who are ready to be self-sufficient, create industries...
