What do you exactly disagree with, him being good enough to be our number one winger on the right or him just being a squad player here?

He has what it takes to be our number 1 winger alongside Hazard? Do you seriously believe that?

If he's slow then so are 75% of our team... He's relatively quick, especially for his size.

The Falcao analogy is bang on tbh. This is quite annoying, tells you he doesn't really evaluate these kids properly at all... Sigh.

Doesn't mean much to me at all, he's been the best of a bad bunch... He'll get a chance but he isn't good enough to be a starter here IMO. Maybe okay to be a squad player here.

Tbh, apart from Hazard & Willian, our wingers aren't really good enough. Willian isn't really a winger either. Moses and Cuadrado aren't good enough, Bertrand Traore is an unknown quantity at PL level atm... I think it's almost as important as a CM in my opinion.

We still need a LB, CM and winger, same as the start of the transfer window. Looks like we'll be addressing the LB slot as Luis is gone and Baba seems likely to come in, but it's quite disappointing how we haven't looked like signing a CM or a winger yet.

IIRC, Fabregas' suspension got reduced to one game, thus he's not actually suspended. He served it in the last game of last season.

It was a joke Jase

If this gets over 20 likes I'll consider it.

We are just not ready whatsoever. Don't know why we started pre season so late. We look about 2 weeks off pace.

Anyone know what the new XI is?

Never that, my friend .

Thanks everyone, won't let you down!

If Arsenal get Benzema they'll be a massive threat next year, especially if they can add a quality DM to that.

In what sense is Gimenez twice better than Stones?

Willian would do that a lot more if he was positioned on the left. He just isn't a RW tbh.

Ashley Cole in his prime was magnificent. What a player.

Did you not watch us last season or...

Fantastic pal. Keep up the good work.

"Jose, is that you? Youre ruthless, cunning and wont let anything get in the way of your team succeeding."

Thanks for continuing this, amazing thread.

Explain why a lot of Willian's best games for us came when he's played in the centre? Explain how he was a lot better when he had more freedom to move to the middle (and the left when switching with Eden) during the second half of last season where he was by far one of our better players?

I honestly would love to be a mod. Got a lot of love for TC. There are a lot of excellent people that would do a great job though. Madmax, DYC., WHS, PetrCech, Amels, Sheva... And pretty much anyone that's been mentioned here. Very reasonable and fair people that would do an outstanding job.

Well, if we're getting shot of Moses and Cuadrado, he definitely would be an upgrade on both.
