Why?

I'm disappointed in him. I and I'm sure all of us really wanted to see him here becoming best in his position. But he looked totally lost in a couple of games under Conte and it seemed to get into his head and not been right ever since.

If we could go back he might have been better off with another year on loan but it seemed he was ready and up for the chance. Same with Happy.

We either loan him to Barca or sell him with a buy back clause in hopes.

They keep the ball a lot better and rarely give it away. That is why Stones and Laporte have looked top class this season. Their possession stats. Christensen would suit the way they play and he would not get caught out defensively as much.

Playing for Chelsea and Gladbach is different. Not saying he should 100% be sold, an offer of 45-55m, would be a good deal because its clear that Sarri doesnt fully trust him. The fact we tried to sign Rugani in the summer too despite Luiz and Rudiger showing they were first choice selection, was alarn bells for me too. The 2 seasons at Gladbach where he was good doesnt mean jackshit if he gave a lot of below average performances and cost us games on a regular basis over a 8 or 9 month period. 

It is different but it still showed signs of his potential and was excellent over there. He helped Gladbach qualify for UCL in his first season and to be voted player of the season for a team where you are on loan shows something. You cannot underestimate that. Bundesliga is a really tough league too. It was not too long ago that fans were hailing him as our best CB and he needed to be starting etc now suddenly people are stating he is not good enough. Where is the patience? Especially when you are not playing consecutively, it is not easy. I am not denying he has made mistakes, however I have seen enough from him to know that we should be patience with him. Part of it also is that he has come through the academy as well. He needs to work on his flaws but I am sure he will do that. I just don't like the idea of getting rid of young talent everytime it looks like they have flaws. Seen this too much in the past.

Ours aren't bad bud!

Our problems arise in the final 1/3 when its time to go for the cum shot and all we feel is stress and tension instead of putting on that strange sex face and screaming YAHOOOOYA haha ( ͡ʘ ͜ʖ ͡ʘ)

Christensen seems to be picking up injuries every time he plays under Sarri...

That was probably his best game this season.

I hope one day AC and Ampadu are our starting CBs, with Mount and RLC bossing midfield and Hudson-Odoi banging them in.

As ya know I'm a dreamer too!

But I'd need a couple of G of opium and some mescalin for one that deep.

But as my man Brooooce 'The Boss' Springsteen says in Prove it All Night - "If Dreams Came True Oh Wouldn't That Be Nice!"

Dream on my friends!

I think Mount has the skills to back Jorginho up. He has the strength and passing skills to influence that position if given the chance to grow into it imo.

That position is the complete opposite of what Mount is about, his game is something of a Lamps (timing of runs), Oscar (intellegent pressing) and KDB (vision) mix  (style wise may i stress, he's obviously not at that level yet and may never be). If we are looking from within for a Jorginho back up the most suitable player is Billy Gilmour.

It's a ACM like Lamps that would send us up a notch IMO. We really do need someone to add some G & A's for us. Apart from the front 3.

I'm still not convinced about RLC there and upset Barkley hasn't stepped up neither. They just seem to find it hard to keep their form.

But would love to see them both come good. Save alot of hassle looking and money.

But with Mount IF we do lose RLC I think we need to gamble on bringing him into the 1st team as 2nd backup. If nothing more than HG.

Barcelona have signed Jeison Murillo from Valencia. So, we don't have hear/read anymore of those Barcelona move rumors...

Sarri insists Chelsea’s Christensen is not for sale

Michael Essien fears Chelsea star Andreas Christensen will be tempted by Barcelona January transfer

https://metro.co.uk/2018/12/25/michael-essien-fears-chelsea-star-andreas-christensen-will-tempted-barcelona-january-transfer-8282900/

Michael Essien fears Andreas Christensen will be tempted to quit Chelsea in January if he continues to sit on the sidelines. The Denmark international enjoyed a stellar breakthrough campaign under Antonio Conte last season, having previously impressed on-loan at Borussia Monchengladbach. Maurizio Sarri’s arrival, however, has prompted a change in system which as seen Antonio Rudiger and David Luiz installed as the Italian’s first choice centre back pairing.

Christensen is yet to appear in the Premier League this season and although Sarri insists he wants the 22-year-old to stay, former Chelsea star Essien believes it is only natural that the elegant centre-half will be considering his options amid reported interest from Barcelona. ‘Every player wants to play,’ he said. ‘Chelsea isn’t an easy place to come and the competition is very fierce. ‘At the end of the day, all the players work but it’s the manager who will pick who he wants to play. ‘When you’re not playing you get frustrated and you want to look elsewhere.’
