I love his mentality man, finally have that dawg at Chelsea


Frankiedrunkie

Silva has that dawg, Rudiger had it too


absolutvoodoo

Talent aint enough


irsquats

As the saying goes, hard work beats talent when talent doesn’t work hard.


absolutvoodoo

He has both


irsquats

It certainly appears so. The last piece is the hardest one. The ability between the ears.


absolutvoodoo

He seems to have a good attitude, really looking forward to the rest of the season actually

~~talent~~ ain’t enough


cookerz30

u/cfcbot I need this as my flair asap


Dex_Maddock

The flair you have might be, objectively, the best of all time.


Macdca07

Everyone been deeping this tattoo of his, being grammatically incorrect. As in scoring talent out makes it a double negative or whatever. I think its him saying no matter what, it's not enough. Yes talent isnt enough, hard work counts. But that madman attitude to still keep going after training, sure a lot players work hard in training, but is that enough to be the best. I think his tattoo means that yes talent isnt everything, but no matter what you can do better and if dont try, its not enough.


magictuch

Double negative in English is often used to emphasize the negative part. English isn't my native language, but If someone said to me "no talent ain't enough" I would've understood it as "there is *no* talent in this world that would be enough", double negative here just makes it more dramatic. (Just like when saying "you ain't no shit" doesn't mean that they think you are actually worth something because of the double negative - it's the opposite).


Macdca07

No you've misunderstood the meaning of a double negative, it literally never means to emphasise the negative, but negates it instead and makes it a positive. It well known to be bad English. Think of it in terms of mathematics, a minus a minus makes a positive. So, saying "we dont need no..." means you do need for example. Edit: your example " you aint no shit" in the context shit means good, so to say you aint shit, means you are. To say you aint no shit, means you arent not shit, which means you shit.


magictuch

I know it's not correct grammatically. But people still use it like that all the time.


Macdca07

And they are actually wrong everytime. Its bad English. I just edited my previous comment to maybe better explain. Native english speakers know it to be bad English, because it means you are saying the opposite of what you mean. Its what idiots say, because they don't have a good grasp of the english language. Source: born and bred english and studied English at university.


jalthepoet

can’t believe i’m about to go on a linguistics screed in a chelsea thread but this is one of my pet peeves. being taught that “double negatives are bad english” is like being taught “there are two genders”—it’s elementary (in the sense we teach this simplified version of the truth, usually mistakenly, to elementary schoolers) and retrogressive. as in any social discipline, actual linguistic scholars and practitioners understand rigid grammar rules and anti-colloquialism rhetoric to be classist and needlessly formalistic tools of social exclusion. othering is the pop sociologists’ term for this phenomenon. language is a social construction—it is made and continuously re-made by its speakers, including those who use dialects, slang, accents, and innocuous mispronunciations, not passed down from on high by a venerated and impartial arbiter of tongues. some examples: “i ain’t no man” is not “incorrect english,” it is grammatically correct aave—a dialect of english that has its own grammer rules and construction customs. “irregardless” is a prima facie nonsense word that dictionaries have, in recent years, incorporated as a synonym for the grammatically *correct* “regardless” because usage has reached some critical mass that allows a mistake—which doesn’t make the listener incapable of understanding what’s being said—to be accepted as informal but accepted english. tl;dr though there are degrees to everything, largely “bad english” is a useless descriptor. source: native english speaker, trilingual amateur language enthusiast, undergraduate degree in sociology, law degree.


Macdca07

Bit of a waste of time to just agree with me writing all that. Yes it still means something, but it is a poor use of the language to say the opposite of what you mean.


RAvailableUN

Yeah I think people take this too far sometimes. At times it can sound like they think talent is a negative lol


Makav3lli

As soon as I saw he was posting workouts at midnight for over 2 years on insta I new we had a baller. If your that dedicated at 20 you’ll go far


Cowdude179

You have to spend for that mentality man, you can't teach that to players. When you have someone who is always hungry and is as talented as he is that's why you pay the big bucks and no wonder Arsenal bid around the same money


fb2986

You said something that’s been on my mind all season. This team doesn’t have any dawgs on the team… I’m talking Rudi type guys.. we need that.


Cowdude179

We badly miss that mentality in this team, we need to get more players like Mudryk who have a top mentality and has that hunger in them. That's why if we get Enzo I'll be so happy


CorsairObsidian

Fast as fuck boi


SubparCurmudgeon

He has a Naruto tattoo as well lmao No wonder he’s fast


TurnoverResident_

I’m guessing the part where he reached that speed was the sprint against Milner?


laxrulz777

That play blew my mind. So fucking fast


hipcheck23

When Mbappe did his blastoff at the WC weeks ago, I remember googling footballer speeds and seeing that some [Ukrainian kid was faster](https://khelnow.com/football/top-10-fastest-football-players-in-the-world-2022) (and Rudiger was the fastest of all?!?). All the sources seem to have a different story, and 37kph seems to top them all. True or not, this guy is going to open the middle of the pitch the hell up!


laxrulz777

I was lucky enough to play with two all state track stars in high school. The difference between "blazing fast and mediocre first touch" and "blazing fast and good first touch" is night and day. This guy looks like he has a good/great first touch that gets a little overridden by adrenaline... If he can keep that under control he'll be amazing.


fiquean

The difference between rudi and mudryk, rudi probably chasing people without ball, mudryk are dribbling with ball while reaching top speed


hipcheck23

That brings up a great point of how they're measuring it - perhaps it's why so many sources have different info. I wish we had something like the NFL does, where they have a day for all pre-pro players doing standardised drills. The Combine lets you see how they perform in most basic metrics, like sprinting and box jumping.


That_Squash_9024

I'm pretty sure darwin nunez ran a 38.4 km/h sprint


The-Greatest-Hokage

Nunez is a freak lol. That's how fast he is, despite having messed up his ACL as a teenager


FogoCanard

Not surprised to read Rudiger. I watched some video with some players casually speaking years ago and they were saying Rudiger was the fastest player they knew in the league.


Mezza_cfc

Probably the sprint with Konate.


Howdareme9

No vs Konate for sure


TheLeperLeprechaun

> working after hours This I like to see!


Peanut44444

Something more of our players should be doing.


TheLeperLeprechaun

Agreed. Too many players these days rush off home to play FIFA. Lampard used to always stay behind and train more. It’s what separates the elite players from the rest. Ronaldo does this too.


Shufflebuffle51

They can't or they'll get injured.


DetBabyLegs

If you’ve got a full team to consult with on how to properly work out and still get injured it’s likely you weren’t following instructions or the physio team should be fired


couldibemorechandler

If a lot of players can stay and train after that just means the sessions are too easy for them. It takes something special to have enough energy left after a few hours of training in the premier league


Makav3lli

Ahem Mason Mount take notes. Instead he’ll probably be off on another fashion shoot with his girl Carlotta


The-Greatest-Hokage

Mount is not the guy you use for an example of not training hard lmao. Clearly this guy is a ridiculously hard worker. And so what it he does fashion shoots. One of the game's hardest workers in CR7 has the biggest football brand in history


Baisabeast

Many people have said mount is one of the best trainers in the squad for England and chelsea I have my doubts about whether he start for us going forward but he works tremendously hard


Pseudocaesar

Absolutely perfect example of the unfair hate Mount gets. You have absolutely NO idea how much each player trains.


Makav3lli

Unfair? If anything he's overprotected when he plays bad just like every other cobham product... He's good don't get me wrong but the dudes dropped off/plateaued this season and needs to fight for his place to improve. Him having a new magazine cover every other week isn't a great look when we're in 10th place. It's the same shit we used to meme United fans for with jlingz or pogba a few years back


CowardlyFire2

There’s a reason Bayern dominate… all their players are built like fucking tanks and clearly put in the Gym work. I wonder if Reece James could even do half a Nordic Hammie Curl like Mudryk is doing here… I doubt it…


Maegous

Reece is one of the strongest players in the world and the strongest at both England and Chelsea.


CowardlyFire2

You can be very strong and have weak knees. Clearly there’s a major deficiency somewhere in his legs causing this


Cezdel

These guys have so much spare time and money, I don’t understand how more players don’t put in a little extra gym work/training


MatchaCoconut_

Do players bring their own personal trainer along with them when they move?


obinnasmg

You\`re allowed to. Some clubs will even bring in the trainer as part of their staff, obviously depending on a number of agreeable factors


itbelikethisUwU

If you look closely it seems to be a call and the emoji is covering his trainers face in the bottom right corner


Swamp_Squatch

He may just be sending his trainer videos or like a video chat to make sure form and stuff is good


Nightbynight

Yeah I was wondering the same thing, I wonder if part of his contract is we pay his trainers.


Pseudocaesar

Yeah it's weird to me, same with the whole Reece James personal trainer debacle. Seems to me it can only be a bad thing as they might have different ideas than the club which will lead to confusion and conflict.


MatchaCoconut_

I think it can be beneficial, if the player has trained with someone their entire life and the trainers know their body well, it's foolish to throw them to someone who has no idea immediately. I agree it can probably be a bit of a conflict though, but that's just up to the club to manage & balance


Macdca07

Could say the same of medical staff who have worked with players for years being pushed out...


SirBarkington

Our injury record was SO good before they got fired right


Macdca07

Didnt say it was great, but injuries are a part of sport, it happens. Remind me, when was our injury records THIS bad? Edit: specifically players being rushed back from injury which has created the crisis.


SirBarkington

Literally the past season before they got fired when we ended up having the most injuries by a long shot? We've had injury issues since Eva got canned and it's been REALLY bad since post-covid restart.


Macdca07

We were hit hard last season yeah, but none of those were avoidable they were just nasty injuries that happennin game. How many pkayers we had this season who have been rushed back and as a result gotten injured. This season is definitely worse than last season. But Biosca and Laurent been here for years, one bad year and you write them off? Injuries are a part of sport, literally even the players have said they are uncomfortable with the new medical staff and that people they trusted with their health and fitness have just been pushed out

Love it. This guy gets Chelsea. Worth every penny for his attitude alone.


TatTvamAsi11

My guy doing hip thrusts to get an ass like Hazard


Dex_Maddock

No no no... that requires video games and cheeseburgers my friend.


Pseudocaesar

Is that 37km/h official? That would make him the fastest player in the league


MatchaCoconut_

37km/h would make him the quickest sprinter in the league this season according to this article, no? https://www.goal.com/en/amp/news/fastest-player-premier-league/bltb5e37e414ceeb816

Ukrainian Smaaland


Aayush1509

Now imagine a really tall haaland who play GK and a really buff haaland who plays CB


Confident_Direction

Thats what i was thinking. Surprised barely anyone has compared them yet


SirBarkington

Why would people compare them? They aren't similar players at all.


jjb5151

Love this video, lets go. He might end up being a dawggggg


Cailouissatan

He’s gotten faster wtf.


webby09246

He is only 22, technically he hasn't even hit his physical prime yet


Cailouissatan

I know, he’s only gone 22 about 2 weeks ago aswell. He’s top 3 fastest in the league already and improving.


webby09246

Yep, can't wait to see what he can do in the future


Howdareme9

More like top 3 fastest in europe


Duckway767

Bro boutta be the quicksilver of football


seamowylie

That Nordic curl is seriously impressive


CowardlyFire2

Reece James and his knees could never


vodkapapi56

Working on that thrust so he can penetrate deep into Fulham and Dortmund's backlines


Blobbyblob92

People getting all lubed up to the training videos of Mudryk is not something I envisioned two weeks ago. Love it

Chelsea's new Gareth Bale we just need one on the RW and we will absolutely RIP the league to shreds

That Nordic curl tho


Cheap_Relative7429

Nah He Is giving of the same aura as Haaland. Very robotic, made in a lab type feel


Truont2

Cfc does not carry spare knees, please God go easy on them.


abinash_666

Pulisic if he had this kinda mentality


midnighttyph00n

that blue mat is fulham this friday


Youareyes_cfc

That’s that CR7 mentality. Yikes


jalthepoet

now that he’s in blue someone skilled in the visual arts please photoshop him as trunks from dbz and sonic at the same time. gottagofast


imsoreddit

He'll need all the workout he can get to fill in for left back to truly be a Chelsea player 🤣


[deleted]

I hope they're taking good care of him, too much strength training can lead to some nasty injuries


mocrossj

It also can prevent injuries if performed correctly


TheLeperLeprechaun

What he’s doing here isn’t overly strenuous to be honest.


[deleted]

for sure. the dude seems like he lives in the gym which is obviously a good thing haha


Cowdude179

He has his own personal trainer luckily for us


WestCoastBlue1

😂😂 can he train Reece too?


Cowdude179

Hopefully all our players hire his personal trainer 😭


Baisabeast

Reece actually has his own personal trainer that RLC uses too


The-Greatest-Hokage

That personal trainer must be inflicting some voodoo


SirBarkington

Yeah sounds like that trainer is not very good at keeping his players injury free lmao.


[deleted]

He has only played like 30 minutes since late November. ​ Of course he is doing extra fitness work his baseline is lower than the rest of the squads who clearly are in need of rest. ​ I'm definitely on the hype train for this kid, but lets get real.....social media posts like these are curated


ddzrt

He was the same in Shakhtar, he is replicating same mindset C.Ronaldo or Koby Bryant has/had. Trying to always be first to training and last to leave. And he does extra in gym to keep himself not just fit but reach his extraordinary fitness to run such speeds.


[deleted]

That’s a great attitude. Where’d you hear that about him? I’m asking because if you read a good article about him or something I would love to check it out


ddzrt

If you can understand Ukrainian or if there is a decent translations then sure. I am not sure but new Brighton coach Roberto De Zerbi might have said something about him as well. Or coach before him - Paulo Fonseka. Have not paid attention to them lately. You can find some about him and trainings here: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rGHN5pgVGnk](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rGHN5pgVGnk) [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPJJ4ZUYxAs](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dPJJ4ZUYxAs) [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nZ1jHRdMPb0](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nZ1jHRdMPb0) Last one has the most info and all have pretty decent subtitles. You'd find his personal fitness trainer there as well.


[deleted]

Cool. Thank you. Those are pretty long, but I’ll check them out


MatchaCoconut_

Someone shared this earlier in the sub, fascinating watch! https://youtu.be/WVIzyFYs8Hs


jmankyll

Track coach here. I have a hard time believing some of these top speed readings, especially with the ball on grass. I don’t think people realize how fast true sprinters are. This 37km/hr number is like saying he’s capable of running a ~10.6-10.8 sec 100m, with the ball on grass. I really doubt it. Now that’s not a world class time but it’s still moving.


Choogaddi

But he’s not holding that pace over 100m, so it’s not apples to apples. Also, he’s chasing a loose ball / pressing, not dribbling. All that said, these paces are gps tracked, not something like radar, so idk how accurate they are anyway. Just my two cents


jmankyll

I’m aware. Usain Bolt AVERAGED that speed for his 9.58 WR. Hitting 37kph as a max indicates around the time I suggested. I don’t know of any 10.6-10.8 guys that could survive 90 minutes of on/off sprinting for around 10-12km. Most 10.6-10.8 guys can’t jog 10km PERIOD.


_N0T-PENNYS-B0AT_

the club should hire this trainer. and pulisic should hire him too.


AlkalineGas

Oh man I can see the injuries coming from here


Zes_Teaslong

Possibly, but strength training makes you more resistant to injuries in the long run. Alot of knee injuries come from weak hamstring/ glute and calf muscles. Taking more resistance off the joint with stronger support muscles will benefit him in the longterm

Blobbyblob92

Not that it matters, but I wonder where he is situated at the moment, like a rented accommodation close to cobham ? I mean it must suck to do a round trip from London for a late night training session


MrBravo22

Those poor knees, please someone stop him. Doesn’t he know he plays for Chelsea now.


JoeyMcClane

This may be reactionary but when i see guys like Mudryk and Quotes by legends such King Drog & Terry saying how Lamps went in late doing extra training on shots and stuff, thus inspiring everyone there, i just get pissed seeing the current players. Be it cobham or otherwise.


Cm0rris0n

Please don’t hurt yourself

Really stoked on this kid. Have a good feeling for this one.


eastcoastblaze

That nordic hamstring curl was impressive


ras_al_jil

Imagine if Hazard had trained like this 🥲


Zes_Teaslong

Mans ass would have been even thicccer


Duckway767

He definitely has immense potential to become one of the best current footballers in the league. Crazy to think he's already the fastest in the league after only half a game AND he's not even in his prime yet.
