Great against Sweden today and I also thought he was very good in our pre season game against Brighton.....he was everywhere vs Sweden.

they played 3-5-2 tho i thought.

 

But if a more adventurous cm is what he needs then we have no problem. there is also the hypothesis aroudn that he needs a sitting cm next ot him... ig uess we will see but our best shot next season is probably going 4-2-3-1

That was my main point either having the 3rd cb behind him or a cm partner that sits deeper brings the best out of him. 343, 352 makes no difference.

Yeh in a 442 where his partner sits behind him. I think hes great in that role too. His movement almost makes up for the fact the team has only 2 cms.

Mbappe tested positive for COVID-19 and has been withdrawn from the France squad. Not sure if others are infected and/or need to be quarantined.

I am worried about this season. They should have left international games and European comps for next summer in the bubble (if no vaccine by than).

This travelling around Europe is going to be pain in the ass.

Club turned down money + Brozovic/Eriksen for Kante, according to Matt Law...

https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2020/09/10/chelsea-turn-inter-milan-bid-ngolo-kante/

Chelsea have turned down a bid for N’Golo Kante from Inter Milan that included Marcelo Brozovic and have also informed the Italian club they are not interested in a deal including former Tottenham Hotspur midfielder Christian Eriksen.

But that may not have completely put Inter off Kante, as the Serie A club are attempting to raise funds through player sales before deciding whether or not to make a final straight cash bid for Chelsea’s midfielder.

Kante is one of Antonio Conte’s top summer targets at Inter, but the former Chelsea head coach knows that he faces a huge battle to try to get the 29-year-old out of his old club.

With Inter struggling for money, Chelsea were made an offer that included Brozovic, who could have linked up with his Croatia national team-mate Mateo Kovacic, but the Stamford Bridge club turned it down.

The Blues were also made aware that Eriksen could be available, either as part of another bid for Kante or in a separate transfer, but Chelsea are not thought to be interested in the Dane.

Also:

Lampard would favour selling Jorginho rather than Kanté.

100% percent agree with lampard on this, kante still ahs a lot to offer as we saw in the france sweden game a few days ago while jorginho doesn't fit the style we're trying to play at all..

Jorgi can be effective in the right team, he was very good for Italy the other day. We cant let Kante go if we aint getting Declan or Partey.

Maybe but I still feel his skillset and characteristics are much better suited to serie a
