The actual line-up will be: Ivanovic Cahill Terry Azpilicueta

Why are Chelsea haters on this forum?

We are 100% getting atleast a LB and in case we don't get Varane or another CB Zouma will play an important role, so your affirmation is false .. :ph34r:

I'm a Chelsea hater for thinking the defence will be Ivanovic, Cahill, Terry, Azpilicueta? We've seen how much Mourinho has praised the defence this season and I suspect it most likely will be those 4 starting next season too — sorry to disappoint!

Thanks for letting us know Roman!

Mourinho never said he won't do changes in defense this summer. You don't need to know a lot about football to realize our fullbacks don't do much in offense.

We all know that but Jose doesn't seem to appreciate the importance of full backs in offensive football; otherwise he wouldn't have continued to play Ivanovic at RB and Azpi at LB in pretty much every game where we were going to face a defensive unit.

He played them in most games because he had no other option except Cole who was injured for a good part of the season.

If he wanted his full backs to offer an attacking threat he wouldn't have loaned out Bertrand. The fact of the matter is that Jose prioritised defence over offense even against the smaller teams and that, in part, has been our downfall this season.

I don't get why people are so excited about him, yes he is a very young and accomplished defender, whilst Jt, Cahill and Iva are not getting any younger, but come on. It is not htat there is a shortage of good CBs in the world market right now. When there is an opportunity to buy one, well be it. Though as U21 CBs we already got Zouma, Kalas and Christensen is rumoured to be not that shabby either. It is rather the age bracket I am more concerned about. When Terry retires next season we should have an experienced CB to replace him who is well in his twenties in the best case.

Terry, Cahill, Kalas and Zouma is fine for the CB position with Ivanovic covering where needed.

Kalas, Zouma?

Yes, interesting prospects, but please.. We are aiming to win the BPL or CL next season. Its basically a "must" to win either.

Do you think we'll do that having to rely on someone who's hardly played for us and one who never has?

Makes sense.

Never bought into the idea that Mourinho was going to go in next season with Kalas or zouma as the 3rd cb and if Ivan sticks to RB, which I think there is a good chance he does, than Mourinho would want Varane to replace JT this season or the one after.
