Antonio Rudiger

Sorry for him, but honestly we have dodged a bullet.

ACL tear means 6-9 months out, so we're not going to get him for sure.

Maybe he raised the bar too high in the seasons before that but I thought he was below average that season, and not that much better in 08-09, which again saw vastly improved defense when Alex came in.

We were conceding so many soft goals in the air, and it was no coincidence that it got better when Ricky was replaced for Alex, I also remember him getting ripped a new one by Jason Scotland of all people in that 3-1 Wigan game.

That's why I'm pleasantly surprised he is still not only playing but internationally aswell, I thought he had it after that season.

04-08 he was almost flawless, his last two seasons he was below par for me, maybe he got too comfortable, something he alluded to just before he left.

Chelsea's aerial game improving with Alex in for Carvalho... come on, Tomo. My pet kangaroo could tell you that.

Still think you're exaggerating. I just checked WhoScored and while their ratings aren't gospel (not at all), he scored a 7.16 compared to Terry's 7.24 in 09/10. Just saying. Tactical defenders usually score on the low side.

Riccy was never below average for me. We'll never agree on this. I'll say it again, he'd never have joined Real if that was the case. I remember him impressing immensely for Real in his first season as well. But after that year his fitness went downhill.

I think it's safe to say we'd all give anything for Alex or Carvalho from then back in our team now. Our defence is a fucking mess and if I'm honest real top draw centre backs are few and far between!

Always a pitty when players get injured, but this is a blessing in disguise for Chelsea.

No no no.... the German Cahill. This guy is a donkey. 

[Unionjack 7,531]

From all that Ive read about him he seems to be a 'Marmite' kinda player. (For those that dont know what Marmite is it is a strong tasting spread you put on bread/toast) and you either love him or hate him.

Taking aside other players who may do the job better or as good - just what are your concerns about him and what do we like about him?

The latest figure Ive seen wanted for him is £30 mill.
