Jay wasn't even part of our preseason so i don't think we're counting on him.   Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Special Juan 28,141 Posted August 11, 2016 Share Posted August 11, 2016 No way can we rely on the players mentioned if the outgoings are correct. Worrying thing for now is there seems to be a lot of movement out and not in. mccg and kellzfresh 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah this transfer window hasn't filled me with enthusiasm for the new season thus so far, no doubt we will get a Cb+others but the time they come and settle and learn how Conte wants to play, the horse has bolted as far the prem this season imho.

xPetrCechx 13,571 Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Kenedy has agreed to move on loan to Watford after Antonio Conte was unable to promise him regular first-team football next season. [Goal] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jype 6,398 Posted August 12, 2016 Share Posted August 12, 2016 Watford would be good for him, I think. Their wide options are quite shit so there could be an opening in the starting lineup for him. Just hope wherever he goes he's played as a winger and not as a left-back.. blueblood22 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe Mazzarri sees him as a left back as well. Could play as a marauding wing back if Mazzarri is going with the back 3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Colored Sky 1,807 Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Seriously, the only spot that he may ever take at Chelsea, the left-back, has widely opened for him, yet he's loaned out. I have hard time to believe that he make it here if he leaves now. OhForAGreavsie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can see Conte&Cfc maybe playing 3 at the back nxt season with 5man midfield with Kennedy maybe taking the left hand spot and pushing Hazard more central with strikers?

petre.ispirescu 4,928 Posted August 13, 2016 Share Posted August 13, 2016 Am I the only one baffled by "Kenedy at left back" discussion? Why would Conte play a fringe player out of position? He is a winger, he's played on the wing through the youth ranks. On the right wing to be more exact, not even on the left. Mourinho played him at left back because this is what he does with attacking players. That doesn't mean he's now a full back lol. Fernando and blueblood22 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That simply can't be. What I'm thinking bud is Conte is trying to make plans for us NOT managing to get a CB. He seems to build his teams and formations to keep the ball away from our weknesses. So IF thats right and that hes trying to sell Cescy and looking at othe CDMs then it makes sense. He will stick a 4-3-3 with a Matic-N'Golo-Chalobah/A.N.Other and just try to stop the ball getting near our defence. Either that or play with a back 5 and let N'Golo guard the CBs I like Kenedy alot and have aot of faith in him having a career in the top layer of our sport. Its a sod that hes going but just like Traore it really might be the best for him and us right now. But its important that its drilled into his head hes an important player in our future and same with all these great young player like him. If he comes back like Moses and Square it will be perfect. 20 minutes ago, petre.ispirescu said: Am I the only one baffled by "Kenedy at left back" discussion?

But he seemed to take to being a wing back. He did seem to have some goiod defensive skills so just MAYBE he would work out as a CDM But in GEERAL Im not a lover of utility players. These lads NORMALLY play in one position from school and trains for that place. But sometimes a players style/build/mind changes and he becomes more suited for a diff position. Which is different to using someone as a human Swiss army knife. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For those of us who think that way, the attention then switches to discussing his chances as a full/wing back.. The Skipper 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
