Conte has given the board his list and how many players he wants, he knows who is already under contract as well. He wants competition and depth for an expanded schedule and to be able to challenge competitively on all fronts. All of the top teams have insane depth/competitions across their team, we are striving to be a very top team. depth is important, 6 Cbs though? And every one of them was a starter last season. Not going to happen. CB is not a position you heavily rotate either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

simonez 69 Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 I will never understand the hype around Rudiger. One of the most overrated players I've ever seen in my life. Why we can only get linked to average players this summer, who chose the players? We were linked to Rudiger long before Antonio came in.

CB is not a position you heavily rotate either. It was quoted that Conte wanted 2 options per position on the field. so if the man wants 6 cbs give him what he wants? None of us know our plan better than Conte/Our Board. As much as we like to think we do, we dont. Edit: I am not advocating for Rudiger in any way, I don't know enough about him to have an educated opinion. The points i am making are solely in Defense of the club buying certain players. They have a plan we have to trust. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelsea Legend 11 4,062 Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 People are acting as if this guy walks right into our starting XI... LOL He's a high level squad player capable of covering multiple positions. Without knowing what we will pay its hard to really get disappointed about it, he is young and will only get better.

Special Juan 28,141 Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 Squad option I can take, problem being if he's being brought in as first choice he isn't better than Cahill. I don't know if he's first choice, I am just making an assumptions like we all are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if he's first choice, I am just making an assumptions like we all are. He will def push Cahill who, lets be honest, isn't the greatest. Word is we are looking for two CB's one stud and another to replace Ake in the depth chart. I assume Ake's replacement is potentially Rudiger, Terry's replacement is gonna be Van Dijk (or someone of that ilk) Christensen could very well be our RWB sub.

Blue-in-me-Veins 4,067 Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 We already have Azpilicueta. This signing makes literally zero sense. Rudiger's not even left footed, and his ball skills are a slight upgrade on Cahill and his defensive abilities are on par with Cahill. That's not high praise. Hope Manolas to Zenit gets completed or Inter Milan come in for him instead. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emenalo has this fetish for fottballers with good physical attributes and shaky/limited technical ability. Maddening. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizy 18,916 Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 £30m for a squad player? Hmm. Not sure about that. That's the sort of money you pay for a starter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have Christensen, Zouma, and had Aké if all we wanted was depth. Rüdiger must be thought of as a starter for this price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chelsea4 1,521 Posted June 30, 2017 Share Posted June 30, 2017 Zouma will likely go out on loan which will leave us with Luiz,Azpilicueta and Cahill as our CB's so besides signing Rudiger i'm sure that we will sign another CB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me we need to upgrade cahill not sign someone who's a downgrade to cahill Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
