Andreas Christensen

[Vesper 30,106]

 

Asked if he was angry with Christensen, an amused Sarri replied: ‘No, not at all. You know very well that on the match day Christensen has always stomach ache.

‘I don’t know the reason but I think he’s very nervous and he had to go to the toilet so I don’t know what to say.’

get rid pls

🤣 so the knives are out after 2 poor team performances a few weeks after hes agreed to sign Barca.

He’s basically been Mr consistent (at a very high level) for 80-90% of Tuchel’s reign, some of you need to settle down. It is embarrassing. 

Yous gonna turn on Rudi too if he leaves?

Christensen never proved in 4atb system. He has just been protected by system. In Barca it will be the same with 75% possession.

He just doesn't want to get Injured before his Barcelona medical so he's faking injures. I feel really bad for Tuchel. He needs reliable players

Get this fraud out of my club

Softest Chelsea player I’ve ever seen. Not only will I not be bothered when he’s gone, I’ll be glad.

If we can replace him with Koundé in that RCB position it’s a considerable upgrade if for no other reason than he isn’t a total pussy like AC.

The biggest loss of Christensen is that he is comfortable playing both centrally and on the side of the back 3 so if we're planning to keep the back 3 we need someone comfortable to compete with Silva for the central position.

But ability wise he is very much replaceable in my opinion. His mentality unfortunately just doesn't seem to be strong enough. I'd rather Tuchel continue pushing and developing Chalobah.

I hope he absolutely bombs at Barca for that. I had no problem with before.

seems like a panic attack, again.

TT having to adapt to a sudden situation again... Andreas can go now, he is clearly not here anymore.

Unless it's a serious mental health issue, he can fuck off 

[DDA 9,925]

Built like a bitch. We knew this when he faked an injury to leave the pitch recently.. was that against Real Madrid?? I can't remember.

what a fucking coward

I don't see any point in whining at the bloke. He did what he did and whether he had played or not, he is the past. Let it, and him, go. He was at the club for a long time but, for whatever reason, we were unable to get him to fall in love with Chelsea. If we are ready to wise then, instead of competing to throw the most cutting insult at Andreas, we should recognise that there is a lesson to be learned and try to learn it.

In any case, Chris is not the first to do this. At least not in my opinion. Although Frank gave him cover, I believe that Willian feigned injury to avoid playing in the 2020 FA Cup Final. Remember that Arsenal had to win that game to qualify for Europe and, since he was about to join them, Willian would have damaged his sporting and financial potential if he had helped Chelsea defeat them. Obviously I can't rule out the possibility that Frank spoke the truth about Willian being injured, or that manager and player agreed between them that it was best for Willian to sit the game out, my own feeling is that Willian made that decision himself.

If Chris returns to The Bridge to play against us I won't be wasting any energy to boo him. If I manage to get any noise out of my gob it'll be used to support my team not to motivate an opponent to try even harder against us.

[Superblue 6,372]

It's difficult to be too hard on him if he has some sort of nervous disposition about playing, he can't really help that and something like that is really difficult for us to help him with.

It is ironic that probably his best ever performance in a Chelsea shirt was coming on in the Champions League final and playing a blinder, where he'd have had no time to think about things and get nervous he was just thrown in.

The problem is somebody like that will never be fully trusted and relied upon by their manager. Sarri seemed to suggest it was an issue with picking him and having done this a couple of times now to Tuchel, I think privately he's probably not too bothered about losing him so long as he can bring a replacement in.

On a side note, I think Trev deserves a lot of plaudits. That's a couple of times now in recent games he's had to come and fill in late. He played both finals, and had to go up against Diaz who just looks brimming with confidence at present and is arguably Liverpool's most destructive player in attack currently and he performed admirably on both occasions. He'll be so much better off for the experiences he's had this season and hopefully uses that as a springboard to developing further next season because there's still areas of his game that need working on but he's starting to blossom nicely. His recovery pace is a big asset (although he needs to develop on not having to recover as often) and his ability to drive with the ball from that right centre back position is somewhat similar to what Rudiger has provided from the left side.
