Bakayoko looks the same too me as he was in the french league. No injury excuse sorry.

Guy’s had no preseason and is carrying an injury and still played. Yes, bad game, but he didn’t let the mistake get to him and was a lot better after it. 

Still has to work on his awareness a lot, but he’ll get better. Just love that he stepped up for his team today even though he was in pain/injured. 

He will have a moster game against Man United and these twats will be saying, "Matic who" again.

He did have a shcoker today though in terms of what is expected.

[Special Juan 27,422]

Terrible today, just lauded about the field like he had no point to prove. In his area of the field and his poor performance he should be benched.

Terrible.

[yuvala 2,167]

Really dont rate him so far.. another bad performance from him. 

Not that bad with the ball but terrible off of it.

the pitch forks are out already ffs guys give the fella time to settle in the PL he's starting in a new country and a new league give him time some Chelsea fans have short memories Drogba wasn't great in his first season 

[Georgy 439]

We got the wrong man ffs Fabinho was right there to get sold but we picked the wrong one as usually.

Does the injury worry you?

At no point to this season has he looked like the athlete I thought he would be. He looks really slow and sluggish. Major concern tbh.

I thought he was excellent between the Arsenal and Leti games, he's been a bit off since then tho. However we have to bare in mind he's playing in a 2 with Cesc, even Kante looked uncomfortable in the same situation and i personally believe it's 90% of the reason Matic crashed and burned so early, you have to do the work of two men.

However i think Conte is aware he needs time to settle and recover from the injury from his comments at the start of the season, i think when Drinkwater is fit that plan might be back on.

Give the lad some time. 

I rate him highly and him and Kante are beast. 

Just that we need to upgrade Fabregas, instead we got Drinkwater....

Although to be fair Drinkwater might be good for squad depth, but need an upgrade to Fabregas.

I agree mate fabregas needs upgraded everytime fabregas plays alongside Kante or Baka in a two man midfield are midfield gets over run I would go for goretzka

Fabregas is a player with such an individual skillset that it is hard to simply upgrade on him. You probably rather buy an alternative to him someone who offers different qualities but you will bot get a better version of the same player. Goretzka is basically the German Bakayoko. Really similar players.

Do you think the board were into Bakayoko before Monaco's last season? I doubt it. I think they just threw money at a flavour of the month.

We can say the same for Kante also, but Kante turned out to be a great signing, right?
Even Conte said that he wanted to integrate him slowly into the starting 11, but with the sell of Matic, that wasn't possible. I agree he got some bad games, he hasn't proven his worth yet, but he got a surgery before the season, didn't manage to get a pre-season and now he has to play between 3 days. Not ideal for him and his fitness, that's why probably his performances suffer. But he is young and I think he can improve a lot under Conte and become a serious part of Chelsea team in the future.

Good quotes from him, sounds like he's aware of his limitations but is learning on how to improve.

Sergej Milinkovic Savic or Kovacic would be my picks. 

Sms is absolutely fantastic midfielder, Kovacic is too but I think it would be realy expensive and difficult to get him out of Madrid (but I can see him leave if he doesnt get enough playtime)

Sms is not really someone who will dictate the tempo though and I feel that is our biggest need right now. How about Oliver Torres or Seri?

Jean Michaël Seri Would be great signing get our super agent Drogba on the case and get him to join Chelsea 😃😃

People are hating on him already?? The fuck? He is probably exhausted from having to play next to Fabregas. He was poor yesterday but still had decent spells. Even Kante looks poor when paired with Fabregas.
