Think 35M is a bit excessive, good to get a MF player in but like I said in the Bakayoko thread regarding Matic and Chalobah, don't think Drinkwater is a huge upgrade on Chalobah, who looked more than capable of holding his own last year or even close to Nemanja

If Chalobah was more than capable of holding his own, why would the club/manager want to loan him out after the sale of Matic? 

The kid has skill but he's better off trying to hone his skill at a mid-table side.

But does that really mean that Drinkwater is any better than him? Let's not forget Drinkwater has been playing for a mid table team in the PL other than the outstanding year hey won the title. I don't see anything in Danny's game than isn't in Chalobah's. Chalobah's age goes against him possibly for a rotation role because young guys wants to play every week but he has already shown in limited game time last season and already for Watford so far this season he is more than good enough to hold his own in the PL.

Lets not forget that in that mid table team there was a kante and in that OUTSTANDING year drinkwater stood side by side with kante, lets not beat around the bush that midfield was SOLID as fuck.

Could have never imagined we would be saying that at the start of the season.

Most of us wouldn't have thought he could be the answer. Has legs unlike Cesc

Why? Cesc shouldnt be in first 11 in first place, he wasnt last year and I have no idea why is he this season, unless its due to short bench,  but we already had last years 3:4:3 11 fit, but still played Cesc. 

Been saying for 3 years he isnt the right player, all he can do is that one long pass or two per game which is superb on its own, bur otherwise doesnt contribute to the play at all. The playmaking part, he might be the best at it in this squad but that says more about lack of quality playmakers in Chelsea, not about quality of Cesc.

Good utility player to bring up in second half but nothing more. Last year Conte made the right decision, this year we went back in 2015 season instead of moving on without Cesc in first 11. 

About Drinkwater, as of now its just knee jerk reaction to Cesc being bad and they see Danny as saviour. But we should wait till he actualy plays some games. I can see him having few bad games and same people calling for Cesc to replace Danny lol.

His injury has been very frustrating.

[LAM09 7,043]

Hope he's fully recovered before he makes his debut
