Baba Rahman

Time to shine Bab(y)a.

(I'll get my coat)

[Blue Colored Sky 1,807]

it matters a lot! JT can't play how he used to, he would get exposed 1 on 1 that's why he has needed Azpi to tuck in alongside him, Terry has always been slow, but now he is not only slow but much less mobile, and when Baba gets forward Matic will have to cover him, so won't be able to help JT also.

Baba can easily play on the right mind. I saw only highlights and read reports but he's two-footed full-back, even playing as right-back in his previous club. So they can phase Baba in not breaking JT-Azpi combo. It's all in Mourinho's gesture at the moment whether he wants to leave his comfort zone.

Inverted wing backs ftw.

Inverted wing backs ftw.

Only found at Chelsea lol

[Topico 165]

Fantastic going forward. Not so much at back.

I find him not that good going forward though, pace is there but his delivery is terrible. Either way since he isn't better defensively could see him being benched permanently.

He's got better as the game went on. Liked what I saw, nice to have proper fullbacks playing on both sides!

[didierforever 7,349]

good performance. well played. should start the match against arsenal.

[iseah100 5,612]

Not bad. Not great.

[Thendo 1,088]

Looked abit nervous, but still a decent debut!

[LAM09 7,043]

Didn't have to do much, but play ok. I hope he starts on Sat.

[termninja 5,290]

Looked decent, but I also saw a lot of times when he made a run, and teammates ignored him. Hopefully he'll turn out good.

I will trust Jose on this because he's the one talking with Rahman, getting feedback from guys like Terry and Cahill about his personality, thoughts, watching him train and similar. This is Ivanovic's probably last season anyway so it's only a matter of time before Rahman gets a run in the team.

[yuvala 2,167]

I agree he looked nervous.
Seems like a good option for LB, much rather see him there and Azpi at RB than seeing Iva.

[Belgiannutt 3,201]

Liked him. Lots of forward runs. Good amount of pace.

Made some really good runs constantly occupying 1 of the defenders and creating space.

Would make a great partnership with Hazard once they'd get used to each other.

Hope he'll start but i just know Ivanovic is going to start. :s

[CHOULO19 24,332]

Thought he was rather poor, to be honest. Got beaten too easily and his positioning and anticipation were poor on many occasions so he kept misjudging and getting beaten by those balls over his over his head. Maybe he was just nervous but he'll certainly to do a lot more if he is to become a starter.

I think everyone just wants his performance to be great because we all want Iva dropped, but I just don't think it was, tbh.
