Tomo 21,751 Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 Could Luiz pull off being an outside CB? If Andreas carries on like this then he has to start but he's not as effective on the outside positions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think AC can comfortably play as a RCB as well... they could all interchange depending on match ups etc. Tomo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Awesome problem to have though. The Skipper 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hybrid Angel 2,130 Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Andreas is a great player. If he stays patient with us and the game time he's getting right now, he'll be a guaranteed starter in 1-2 years. We have to remember that David is 30. God bless being in four competitions. Rotation when we have such quality options at CB feels so nice. Everyone is getting playtime and everyone is developing while having the hunger to establish themselves in the starting XI.

CHOULO19 24,332 Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 Like John Stones except really good!  6 hours ago, Tomo said: Could Luiz pull off being an outside CB?

Problem with Luiz playing other than central is that he starts getting forward more which is where he can sometimes lose his head and then you get the things like the Arsenal sending off...

lucashm 340 Posted September 24, 2017 Share Posted September 24, 2017 I am honestly in awe of how he has developed. I remember his first game against Bayern, they lost 3-0 i think, and he looked lost on the pitch, you could clearly see how nervous he was. To see him playing with the confidence and calmness that he has now is absolutely incredible. I knew he had potential, but i never knew he was this fucking good, and he is just 21 years old! We genuinely have our next captain now, and better yet, he is OUR player, he came from OUR youth team, and he is THE best young CB in the world, which just speaks volume about the level of players we are creating there. He needs to be a permanent starter, not next year, not in January, but NOW, he is ready, i am sure of that. Despiadado.Maleante 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Panic 57 Posted September 30, 2017 Share Posted September 30, 2017 The only bright spot to today's game. He was cool calm and composed while on the ball and while defending. These are the type of performances that will make Conte trust him and allow him to really be in the mix for the first 11 as the season progresses.

Fortunately, we have plenty of games to play this season so there will be many opportunities for Christensen to continue impressing, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jase 43,479 Posted October 18, 2017 Share Posted October 18, 2017 He's done well in his appearances so far but he was really bad for Dzeko's first goal. Ball watching and didn't track his run from the start. Fernando and OneMoSalah 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
