Rudiger and Silva are our 2 most important players in defense. Chris has been good but at the moment Chalobah deserves to play ahead because:
1. he offers more in attack
2. in CL and PL this season we conceded 3 open play goals (Chris was on the pitch for all 3 and Chalobah for zero)
3. contract situation - Chalobah signed, Chris still did not
But we have 3 PL games in 6 days basically so I am sure there will be a lot of rotation.
Especially 2 away games Wednesday evening - Saturday early kick off will be tricky. We need all players! Positive is that both games are in London (or close).
