Marcos Alonso

[BlueLyon 9,359]

Bertrand/Telles on deadline would be great but its never happening. 

Seems LB and striker will be priorities next windows unless Morata and Emerson step up big time.

I can't see Chelsea sell him now especially when we can't replace him ATM 

[BlueLyon 9,359]

I wouldnt disagree with trying him as striker haha. Actualy has decent movement and finish, often looks goal-thirsty aswell.

No I cant either. Cant see Emerson getting a look in any time soon neither. He will become Sarris Ivanovic

Look. Even the fuckin Star can see hes our weakness

Chelsea vs Arsenal: Ex-Gunner backs Unai Emery’s side to exploit weak Blues star

ARSENAL can bounce back from their Premier League opening day defeat by exploiting Chelsea’s weakness down the left.

. Bellerin most of the time, out of like 10 bad crosses he does, he'll do 1 good one.

I would like to see CHO start to have another go at Bellerin. Cant see Eden starting but the last 20 mins again.

I really want to get Kovacic getting some time too.

Yeah would not try to exploit azpi’s defensive weakness that’s for sure.

now the same could be said of every attacking fullback. RM Marcelo would be the perfect example as he can’t defend to save his life (way way worse than Alonso).

that does not hurt Madrid though. The system takes care of that or atshould - that’s why the manager also makes the big bucks.

Even the Dogs on the street know our weakness is Luiz and Alonso that will need fix in January or next season

Can't see it mate. Sarri likes them both.

I think Marcelo makes up for his weak defending with his world class open play attacking that Alonso cant dream of replicating. Take away set pieces from Alonso and he ain't contributing much to chelsea. But he's the best we got for now so we have to make do.

Emerson, AC, and Kovacic, are really key players who need to step up and take the starting places from 3 inferior players, Alonso, Luiz, and Barkley (Barkley is only one who could come good). As for CHO, he is just going to have to scrap for playing time, as Sarri clearly thinks Willian and Pedro can still perform at an extremely high level.

I do not know why Sarri hasnt played Emerson more, as when he is fit and playing to potential I only rate Alaba, Alex Sandro, Marcelo, Mendy, Alba, and Lucas Hernandez as being clearly above him, with Telles on same level as he is.

Alonso and Luiz are massive defensive weaknesses.
