Free kicks were guaranteed to be hammered in to the wall. true, but I am more concerned about delivery of crosses from set pieces, will always find someone able to shoot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We haven't really had a good (direct) free kick taker in a while. Mata was accurate, no pace on the ball though (sums it up, I suppose). Drogba and Ballack were the last good ones. I know Willian had a good season last season (just the beginning), but a couple of those were crosses that the keeper messed up. I need to see more consistency before I say he's a really good free kick taker. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unionjack 7,531 Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 I've not seen any links of him to us. Nor any other defender for awhile actually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelsea Legend 11 4,062 Posted August 2, 2016 Author Share Posted August 2, 2016 I've wanted him like forever ago. He's not the fastest player on the pitch which is why he hasn't been linked with bigger clubs but his servicing, set piece delivery and his aerial ability make him a tantalizing piece! Hasn't had the best of seasons in recently but still an upgrade to what we have. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Special Juan 28,182 Posted August 2, 2016 Share Posted August 2, 2016 I cannot believe for one minute the smart bloke Conte seems to be, that letting this lad go on loan and as it stands, and hoping... I say that looking at Kenedy that he thinks we are going to be OK at LB. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given our available players at the back seems like he'd be a worthwhile addition, especially for that price tag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This transfer would mean a new LB and finally Azpi on the RB, which would mean no Ivanovic there at last... But only in my dreams. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unionjack 7,531 Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 More links with him coming out today then. Lad SEEMS to me to be better at going forward. But hes got tons of energy with a great left footed cross. And was supposedly the best LB in the Bundesliga last season Also might be a threat to Edens penalty taking. Compred to Leighton Baines Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizy 18,984 Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 How strange would it be to see an actual LB playing at LB for Chelsea again? RR + new CB will make a world of difference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iggy Doonican 4,186 Posted August 18, 2016 Share Posted August 18, 2016 If there's one position over the years we've for some bizarre reason struggled at it's left back. We've had some good un's some dreadful ones and some who are not natural left backs Gallas, Dave, Andy Myers, Mal Donaghy, Le Saux started as a left winger.
