I have big hopes for Christensen, nothing against Rudiger, but i would prefer that he becomes the starter in place of Cahill instead of Rudi

Surely whoever is better should play?

As long as they have equal opportunities to prove themselves, sure.

But i prefer Christensen, i think he has a higher ceiling AND is homegrown

[Special Juan 28,119]

He will be on the bench most of the season, the three CB's pick themselves and barring injury won't be shifted. Ruddiger will struggle to nail down a starting spot too.

I support all of our promising young talent. I believe Baker, Christensen, Musonda, Tomori and even Boga are capable of playing for us. I cross my fingers none of them go on loan this summer, but we will see.

I wouldnt be so sure regarding Cahill, he may be the captain, but Conte did said that he would be the captain WHEN he plays. I think Christensen and Rudiger may have a real shot at overtaking him this season

I really hope that by the end of the season our back three is Rudiger-Luiz-Christensen, with Azpi as RWB of course.

Andreas Christensen defends controversial Chelsea loan system: 'They don't just abandon you... I'm a better and tougher player now'

Echo's my thought's.

Most Of the time i can understand a POV even if i disagree, but one thing i just don't understand is why the loan system offends people so much.

I think it only really offends people outside the club...ala the journos and rival club fans, who just think we're cheating the system, when actually just exploiting it. Inside, they probably wish their clubs did the same

There's defiantly been Chelsea fans who have moaned about it before.

IInter are interested in signing Andreas Christensen but would have to pay Chelsea in the region of €25m (£22.4m) to sign the defender, reports Tuttosport.

Bullshit.

Without pulling off some incredibly unlikely signing such as van Dijk there's zero chance the club are letting go of another defender. The CB department is pretty much the only outfield position in the squad that is not severely lacking in numbers at the moment so to even link someone with a move is ludicrous.

I dont think anyone opposes the loan system ... In fact it is a good and a brilliant strategy.

The problem is the loan system was suppose to be a sub set where we use it to see who is good and who is bad so that they are then integrated into the first team thus saving loads of money along with talent in the process. The sub set is no longer a sub set to integrate youth but it now something which is used to churn out money for the club. Thats why lot of us are disappointed that we could have archived more through this loan process. 

 

P.S. Dont get me wrong, making money through any channel is good but for me the vision was just not making money through this system

put the buy back clause than add 30 million to get van dijk. i just didn't trust one of cahill or azpi at the back 3..

There's no way is Dave a RWB... a brilliant defender and I love the guy, a fabulous RB/RCB but that's it, he's too slow and not a particulary good crosser, so RWB 'fraid not
