True. He has this occasional loss of concentration during games that frustrate me. I hope our left wing of Alonso-luiz is not targeted/exploited too much this season...

Are you talking about Rudiger or Cahill??

rudiger (cahill is almost an ex player)

Why? is he too rash in his tackles for your liking?

I just don't trust him.. his positioning is off far too often IMO

Christensen and Rudiger are our 2 best CB's. They need to start. AC  wasn't bullied in the WC and he looks to have put on a wee bit of muscle in last 3 months. Also, it really is a shame we didn't get Rugani. I know he got a lot of hate here but he is the real deal. Sarri and Juve are not idiots. Juve chose him over Caldara and Caldara would start for most EPL teams.

If Lpool had plucked Caldara and had not backed out of the Fekir deal, they would have an excellent shot at taking out Shitty for the title. If Joe Gomez plays yearlong at CB like he did last game, they still might, but their attacking depth is missing, especially with Ox out for the year. Lallana is one of the most overrated players in last 10 years. Never rated him.

Another option for us at CB (I do grant he is only 19, 20 at end of October, but wow what a player already) would have been Dayot Upamecano from RB Leipzig. Good on the ball and a real thumper already.

Maurizio Sarri should break Chelsea’s David Luiz habit as soon as possible

I think its pretty obvious that it wasn't only Willian that was bitching about Conte in the dressing room.  At the time all those reported spats of Luiz and Conte was coming out and they were trying to cover it up with the continuous injury BS.

But you just know that the 2 best mates were stirring the pot back stage and all that negativity DOES rub off mo matter how much you try not to listen.

And once one of them start getting bench time like Willian not playing because Pedros got the RW and Eden will be fit and hopefully AC starts pushing for the Luiz spot, the same thing is bound to re occur. No matter how happy everyone is right now.

I dont like this  problem we seem to get with player power but as the articles have come out this week its not only Manure that the manager fails to keep respect. The players have the power unless the club gets behimd the manager and in allot of cases its just easier to find a manager and start fresh than lose players!

Chelsea news: David Luiz makes Antonio Conte transfer revelation

CHELSEA star David Luiz is the latest player to claim he would have left the club if Antonio Conte was still in charge.

there is just too much player power in football imo and its a disgrace how many managers get the axe because of spoiled primmadonas. Chelsea is a good example of player power and i pray to God they dont try anything with Sarri, im sick and tired of these cunts getting away with everything and the manager always being made a scapegoat. No top manager can survive in a toxic and backstabing environment. Cheers

Hate to generalise, but these situations mostly always happens with south American players. They are way too disloyal. 

[Miki-Liki 405]

Yet nothing of value would have been lost. Just spoiled garbage millennial football players believing they are actually good and who lose all their confidence once you point out they did something wrong.

Jesus, just bench him already, how many goals will he cost us this season?

He's the new Ivanović in the team the new untouchable  it's time for Luiz to go back to Benfica 

[Special Juan 28,099]

Terrible for their goal, under 8 defending.

[LAM09 7,043]

He'll always have a lapse of contraction and that's something that isn't acceptable as a CB.

[Jase 43,479]

 

[Thor 2,689]

He made a mistake, but I feel he has been solid in his role. 

AC made a bunch of mistakes last season and we all wanted to let him play through it. I get Luiz is a finished product and he probably won't get better, but it was a case of switching off against a team that posed no threat until that moment. 

[OneMoSalah 8,883]

Poor again. This will be a recurring theme. One good season under Conte does not change the fact for his entire career he is continuously caught out ball watching and that is a weakness that teams can exploit, especially if we have 75% of the ball and are constantly on the front foot (makes him even more dangerous). Just waiting for the oh but he can play out from the back shit to justify selecting him.
