He has had the disadvantage of playing on the LCB side a lot this season. That is playing on his weaker side and with him not blessed with pace, he will ne naturally more exposed. However when he came into the centre of our back three, you saw how much his performances improved.

Now that Sarri is officially our new head coach, how will Cahills future look like? will it be the end of him being in the starting lineup or perhaps even having the armband?

He will probably be a rotation player and still be club captain, not a chance Sarri comes in strips him of the captaincy plus I think its fair to say the players all respect Gary being captain so it would be a idiotic move on all accounts (despite all the shit that was mentioned last season about him as a captain although he did a really good job in Terry's absence in the first year under Antonio and if last season wasn't so poor or indifferent, it would probably never have been mentioned at all). Only way he doesn't have the armband is if he is sold on but I'd say maybe David Luiz and 100% Kurt Zouma's future is in doubt, especially now Jorginho has taken Zouma's number and the talk of Daniele Rugani coming in.

Kinda funny that Cahill played only ONE game at the World Cup after talking so much about winning his place back in the starting XI last season to ensure he got selected. Didn't even contribute to anything meaningful in the end.

Best for all parties if he goes. Not good enough for the top level but good enough to go to a decent midtable side. He can do what Johnny Evans did where he leaves a big club and establishes himself as a solid piece for a lesser club.

Azpi as new captain.

Would be sad to see him leave. Not exactly a legend of the club but put in some great performances when it mattered most esp in the cl final 2012, the el final 2013, the whole 2014/15 season he was flawless. Then again in our recent fa cup final he was absolutely sublime in the mid cb position. But i guess he is bow too Immobile to play Sarrid high line in a 4 man defence so I understand if he night wnat to go and play first team football.

Think if he was up for it, he'd be a decent rotation option still but Christensen, Rudiger, Rugani if he comes in have to be considered ahead of him in the pecking order. Hes not exactly brilliant but with talk of Luiz going to Napoli, I think it would be better to perhaps keep a more experienced head around in case he was needed or even to play smaller games/cup games. In all fairness if he decided to leave looking back at his time here he has been a huge success, considering he came into arguably one of the worst Chelsea teams in the last 10 years. Like Azpi, only cost £7m, fair enough Azpi is different gravy but for an English player at the level he was, it was a pretty good deal. I'd assume Zouma will be sold on as well.

Only thinking about the Home Grown quota. 

This means we are down to Moses, Danny (likely to be sold), Barkley, Fabregas, Loftus Cheek and Christensen. Think the club must sign a Home Grown player if both Danny and Gary are leaving. Wilfried Zaha? I can't think of anyone else who would improve the quality of the squad.

There was talk of Grealish.

Signing a HG third GK would be a wise idea

I thought his best season was 13/14, it was around December 2014 i felt his old habits were starting to creep back in.

It's just a quota. Not compulsory to fill it.

Gary is talking about leaving... I've always stuck up for him, thought he was a good solid move when he signed, think he's been solid for the most part, think contes system didn't suit him the best and he for found out a bit and also reckon JT also massively coached/led him. If he now wants to go however then thanks big man but all the best....go on a free if you want, don't honestly believe there's a place here now for him. Always be remembered fondly but if JT, Frankie and the boys can be cast aside then he surely can.

Loyalty seems like a thing of the past... the current generation need to look that up in the dictionary.

But can't blame them either we are in a competitive and opportunistic world.

The player doesn't think once about the club, manager, fans and the same can be said for each of the other entities too.

I dont think Gazza was completely taken to by the supporters. Probably accepted much more when JT was here tho. Since then I think hes tried too hard to be captain courageous. It doesn't sit well taking the captains armband off Dave coming in as sub like that. He could have led just as well without it if he had the teams trust.

And the way I look at players since Lamps left is totally different. MOST just see clubs as another job. Change jobs, wear a different suit to work, new boss and workmates. Just like the rest of us change jobs. Keep some mates at old job but do your best for new boss.

The days wgere peeps enter one job from school and stay there till retirement has gone. And happens very rarely in football. Thats why when it does they become legends

I dont mind where peeps go as long as we dont strengthen our opponents and we have an upgrade or decent replacement before they go.

Gazzas lost what is needed under Sarri - time to say good bye
