To be honest IΒ trust Di Marzio more than i do our board!!!

If in a bizarre world it's true, that means we have already signed at least 2 experienced defenders, otherwise our board and Conte should go to hospital to get their brains checked.

Can I say something that might offend a few on this board?Β 

I know a lot of you are very high on Zouma, and fair enough. He is a young, physical and extremely powerful CB prospect at such a young age. I completely agree on that point, but what doesn't impress me so much is his presence on the ball. He doesn't seem very comfortable with the ball at his feet, or making the simple pass at times. It could be just his awkward movement, but he is in fact sure of himself, or it could be something that others have noticed?Β 

I will say he is far more sure of himself stopping his man at the back than someone like Cahill is, but at the same time he isn't as good as someone like Cahill in terms of presence on the ball, and passing, and I don't consider Cahill to be all that great at it himself.Β 

Am I wrong here, and simply not taking a good enough look at his game, or are these points about his flaws somewhat correct at this point in time? Are these things, such as comfort on the ball something that he can improve on with time? Or is it better to have him and Luiz playing together, both with different strengths to make us more well rounded?

There are 3 types of defenders really. A proper ball playing CB, which is Luiz. Then you have one who cant really bring the ball out of defence but has a decent passing repertoire, which is Terry. Lastly, the guy who just keeps it simple, which is Zouma or Cahill. So it doesn't really matter if you think Cahill does more than Zouma, they're still firmly in the third tier who can't really do much with the ball. Keep it simple, with the occasional long diagonal, which both Zouma and Cahill have in their locker.
