He has failed to deliver for over 3 years now.. he's lost all the playmaking abilities that endeared us to him when he came to Chelsea. We need a man with a spine and the ability to make things happen going forward, not this guy, sadly.
Yes, with the exception of Mirallas and Bakkali they are more natural Left wingers but can do a job on the right as well. Point is, we have the quality on the bench to leave Kevin out if he doesn't play for his club.
Yea, didn't really mean in January (which is asap tbf), but this man shouldn't be playing for us next season. I'd still like Chalobah to get some games though, can't be worse than Mikel.
Mikel is such a boring player, nothing exciting in his play. If he'd be solid in what he does it wouldn't be that big a deal, but he's sloppy on top of that. How some keep defending him after all this time is ridiculous. Not good enough for a topside
I've watched every single minute. I'm not gonna get drawn into another discussion though, clearly we have different standards so it'd be pointless anyway.
Ofcourse pre-season matters, it's the basis for a manager to form his squad for the season. Every player is equally motivated to do well in those games because that's the period places are up for grabs. Well for most clubs anyway.
Let's see, he's in London at his beloved club, second in the league, at the verge of winning the group in the CL, has a vast arrange of talent at his disposal, is probably living a happy family life earning the odd 10 million pounds a year.
I really didn't want to give the impression I don't rate Schurrle tbh, I was merely trying to make a point about Jose's comments. I'd pick him over KDB or Willian on the wings most of the times, on merit of his impeccable work-rate and enthousiasm.
