The Skipper 20,609 Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 Imagine shipping out Matic only to replace him with Drinkwater. What a joke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magic Lamps 11,692 Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 40m for Drinkie would be madness. 10m and homegrown wouldnt do much harm but he does not really fit our style of play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He left because he wants to play regularly. 6 minutes ago, Artandur said: I feel like "don't let him leave" would be the correct wording here, it's not like we axed him, he wanted to go. Yes, what I mean we shouldn't let Chalobah leave in the first place. Conte more than capable to convince him to stay if he want. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesnt make it any better but Matic was replaced by Bakayoko, Drinkwater will replace Chalobah. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why not to have 4 players for 2 positions? at the moment we have 3 already and still rumoured to sign one more CM. Chalobah is still young, it is not impossible to convince him to stay and wait for his opportunity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Half of the reason he want to leave in the first place, because we couldn't convince him enough that he still can make it here if he is patient enough. You don't get it?

jernej93 569 Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 Why are people assuming that Drinkwater is replacement for Matić? We already have Bakayoko, we only need central midfielder for rotation ... Drinkwater is actually way more suited for that central midfield role than Ross Barkley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you assume that Drinkwater doesn't want to join Chelsea because he will sit on the bench than who would you sign? A world class player to put Bakayoko on the bench or some lazy sh*t who is just after the money and doesn't care about playtime? We have more games this year and with Conte demanding more players we can expect more rotation. And if one player starts to underperform, he will be rotated as Ivanovic was early in the season and Matić when his performances dropped after new year. Once again - I think Drinkwater is a very good rotation midfielder if we can get him, at least better than Barkley (for our system)!!

Am just saying do u think he will leave first team football for our bench? Personally I wouldn't have let Matic go and I wouldn't have let RLC go out on loan, but saying that if they wanted to go not much we can do. But I would go for the OX can play CM and RW/RWB. I wouldn't touch barkley with a barge pole. My personal opinion is we have a good set of defensive midfielders, we need a dynamic attacking midfielder, I'd throw a 20 bid for wilshire are medical team are second to none, a good run of games and properly man managed I think he could do well here.

I sometimes come here and question what exactly people think Chelsea Football Club stands for. So because Christensen made a few appearances for Gladbach in midfield, now all of a sudden he's good enough to fulfill that role at Chelsea? I read this stuff and laugh on the daily. Drinkwater is going to get the same game time as Chalobah did last season why spent £25m or more on average player who will play for Chelsea for one season and end up being loan out the rest of his chelsea I rather spent the money on midfielder who's going to challenge Kante Bakayoko fabregas midfield is not Christensen best position but he can do a job there if needed Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
