Tammy Abraham

If you're expecting a slagging down of him you may be dissapointed. You may even feel attacked by this article but it's just opinion. It is not intended to highlight failures or attack any player we have.

I've seen Tammy take so much stick recently and I find it quite ridiculous. Apparently Tammy is the youngest Chelsea player to reach 25 goals for the club since Kerry Dixon.

Recently Giroud scored 4 in a champions League game which was fantastic, he's a great player and thoroughly deserved it. Tammy lost his starting place up front, I understand that, go with the form but the criticism he got was ridiculous. They are two different types of player, in my opinion both very good at what they do.

In the games that Giroud started ahead of Tammy he sadly did not score, we also lost. Not Girouds fault to be fair, the opposition needed a more mobile attack to break down, this sort of opposition needs someone more mobile such as Tammy. West Ham was a similar situation and Tammy got a brace. This has been derided by many articles I've seen, particularly Chelsea fan pages on Facebook.

Sometimes I despair at some fans, it seems they aren't interested in Chelsea as a club only points. Points, trophy's are nice but I'm a win, lose up the blues kind of guy. These fans seem to make knee jerk decisions all the time. I understand football is about opinions and people's needs to express them but when they get personal and are clearly based on limited actual.experience of what football as a whole entails then I find it hard to take.

Looking forward to seeing our players get better appreciation from the fans as the team develops. We have some great players now and for the future so what's not to like. Enjoy the journey, sorry to ramble but I really struggle with negativity and slagging down your own and I can only ask you to trust me when I say I've known dissapointment with Chelsea, years of it.

Strange to put the article up here JFDI as I have not seen any such criticism of Tammy on this forum. He has done well so far this season. Ofcourse he still has a lot of improving to do on his movement and it would help his gand if he can start bullying a few CBs. But as an example Lukaku now looks the real deal, so it does take time.

At the end of the day we have two horses for courses strikers and Frank is responsible for working out the fit.

Dipping toe in the water I guess, I wanted to gauge the feelings on here as I was, and still am extremely dissapointed with some of the reactions elsewhere.

I have to say I've critisised Tammy before...mainly for not standing on his own two feet at times, & also getting into great positions & then flaking it

But no player is perfect

It does onalmost every player. That is why I mostly avoid the live match threads. They are just a centre of ill thought out and knee jerk negative comments.

I don't use FB of Twitter, but from what I hear from others, it seems these particular platforma attract the most idiotic fan comments. If I was a player I would tune them out as no marks. Easier to say than do though I guess.

Look at the criticism of Mount too! It's laughable really.
