Didn't say he was a better player but has more potential than Alonso imho , if we can't get a upgrade for Alonso in the January sales use Kennedy as back up ,was the view...simples

Ah, as back-up, okay... I thought you wanted to replace Alonso immediately

At least kenedy has more pace, speed, athletism, more energetic to our left side and posses good technique aswell.
At least give it try.

Maybe kenedy defending is very doubtful (alonso not so good when comes defend too), bu kenedy probably much better when supporting attack.
i mean seeing pedro play at the left side like yesterday, pedro have pace and willingness to take on defender is really much more helpfull to free hazard.

I like alonso as player, but actually seeing alonso week in week out, doesnt have any pace to recover when he out of position is sad because that is really hold back our team.

Being a good LWB is more than just having pace, speed, athleticism and energy. You also need to be intelligent tactically and does Kenedy possess that? It's debatable and Kenedy barely did anything special as a LB. So, what makes people think he'll suddenly be a good LWB? On top of that, is Kenedy considered to be tall? Only 1.82m and last thing we need is having 3 short defenders in the back 5 and leave ourselves exposed aerially.

Some people think Roberto Carlos was one of the greatest. But they don't watch enough Chelsea games. Because if they did, they'd know history has been re-written.

Roberto Carlos with no lips

The dogs that barked at him, now should lick his feet!!!

[Leif 6,006]

The birds that shat on him should style his hair

Mannnn some of y'all need to come back and have a bite of this crow. Put in an absolute shift today. Could see the lad was buzzing around. I have no worries about Alonso and Ake holding down LWB through the season.

LOL..

Think he'd make a good CDM. What quality does he lack for that position? Like 1 out of 10 needed.

I was thinking about LCB  Great ball playing defender IMO  

[volfan89 97]

Not even close to being physical enough to play CDM or LCB.

He played LCB at Fiorentina, even this season.

Fiorentina doesn't play in the premier league...

Great game. So happy for him, one of the hardest worker in the team.

The stats before the latest league win showed Alonso had covered the highest distance per 90 minutes of any Blues player to have played 500 minutes or more this season, at an average of 7.9 miles a match.http://www.chelseafc.com/news/latest-news/2017/01/alonso-in-on-the-act.html
