Why does Chelsea have a saying that a forward black hole is? Many players cannot perform well when they come here?

Chelsea has always been known as the "forward black hole", and many forward stars have been living a very unsatisfactory life when they come to Chelsea. Mutu, Shevchenko, Torres, and now Jackson and others have encountered many problems.

The reasons here are very complicated, including both the difficulties caused by their own factors and the difficulties caused by lack of self-discipline, as well as technical and tactical aspects and injuries.

I usually watch Chelsea games more often. I often watch them in the early days of Mourinho. I think many forwards who come to Chelsea to play poorly are more due to tactical reasons, and their characteristics are incompatible with the team's playing style.

The typical representative here is Shevchenko.

Shevchenko is a representative of the standard FC type, a forward striker and a technical shooter. He has outstanding speed, quick dribbling, extraordinary creativity, and outstanding shooting skills. He is a trusted shooter for the team.

He is the kind of excellent player who likes to score goals independently and helps the team win by relying on his own strength.

His nickname is "nuclear warhead", which is enough to show how powerful his deterrent power is and how much impact it will bring to the opponent's players after getting the ball.

In AC Milan, he has extremely high tactical freedom, can run around the frontcourt, and the team also takes him as the core. Once he has the chance, he will pass the ball to him, and he doesn't have to do too many defensive and supportive tasks.

Pirlo and others were organized to pass the ball. Shevchenko only had to shoot the ball in with peace of mind. The task was relatively simple.

However, when we come to Chelsea, the team's playing style is different. When Chelsea bought Shevchenko, I also had a big opinion and thought the transfer was a bit inappropriate.

Let's talk about age first. What are the risks of introducing him at the age of 30? The key is that his characteristics are obviously incompatible with Chelsea.

The Blues' playing style is a routine of "center fulcrum support". In the 433 formation, the primary purpose of the center is not to score goals, but to be able to hold the ball. After controlling the ball, he handed it to his teammates. Winners Robben, Joe Cole, Duff and others attacked, and Lampard in the midfield stepped forward, using such tactics to create a threat to his opponent.

The core value of this tactic lies in space and speed. It requires that the ribs and forward insertion speed should be fast. Use the dislocation effect of the opponent's defense line to cooperate, and then find a good opportunity to score.

This style of play requires the forward's confrontation, strong vision and ability to allocate the ball, and have a global perspective to play the game.

However, in AC Milan, Shevchenko rarely plays such tactics. He has always been used as a striker, and the team is not asking him to do these tiring tasks.

When he arrived at Chelsea, he would definitely not be able to adapt to such a thing.

The winger broke through the dribble, and Shevchenko, who is over 30, is definitely not as good as Robben and other teammates; in terms of center confrontation, he is not as good as Drogba, so it is embarrassing where you put him.

If you have to adjust the formation, the 442 tactics will match Drogba and Shevchenko, and the entire team's midfield system will usher in a huge change. The familiar routines that were previously unknown will disappear, and it will be very uncomfortable for other teammates to cooperate and play.

Shevchenko came to Chelsea, and in my opinion, this was a complete "tactical disorder" and the result of the players' no chemical reaction with the team.

was not suitable for age, incompatible technical characteristics, and was plagued by injuries and lacked time to run in. All kinds of difficulties were reflected in him. In the end, he had no choice but to return in a defeat and return to AC Milan in disgrace to end this unpleasant journey.

In addition to tactics, injuries are also an important reason for Chelsea's forward encountering Waterloo. I don’t know if it’s a curse or something. Since Drogba, Chelsea’s forwards have been a bit injured. Whether it’s a transfer or loan, it’s rare to say that the stars can be completely healthy and play.

Torres is one of them. He was troubled by injuries when he came to the Blues and was often injured, which caused his condition to fluctuate and he could not score in the empty goal;

Colombian star "Tiger" Falcao, who was loaned to Chelsea for a year, has been missed for nearly four months due to groin and thigh injuries, and he didn't play well, and his condition was also fluctuating;

Except for Diego Costa, Morata, Werner, Higuain and others who came in the later stage did not perform well. They were either injured or had their own abilities problems.

A striker who can really play well at Chelsea can count with one hand.

Jackson may also face an embarrassing situation now and may leave the team. Chelsea's forward may usher in a new round of blood swaps.

Regarding the troubles of Chelsea's poor forward performance, I think this is not just as simple as luck, it is a long-term and complex environmental problem.

I think when the team signs, it is still necessary to be realistic and introduce suitable players based on their own technical and tactical characteristics. It cannot just refer to fame.

The overall combination is more important than the characteristics of the star. Football is still played by 11 people. No matter how outstanding a star has a strong ability and cannot integrate into the team, no matter how good his skills are, he will not be able to perform.

First determine the core style of playing in the midfield and frontcourt and find a matching player, so that it can play a role in the team.

This is much more suitable than blindly buying a forward.
