Andreas Christensen deserves first team chance – but Sarri won’t give it to him

[James 5,146]

It’s time for Andreas Christensen to get a chance in the first team. The Dane had started 3 of 4 games going into the Everton match last weekend, looking increasingly comfortable as a partner for both David Luiz and Antonio Rudiger.

He started here very well after his loan spell at Borussia but obviously lost his confidence last spring after making some big mistakes.

Luckily, after some good performances it looks like he is back on track. I think it would be a big mistake to sell him, he is a great talent. Still only 22 but has great experience, also homegrown. Pls don't waste him.

100% agree, I think he is going to be a decent CB for us for years. Luiz has been back to his shit ways too. Bench him for a couple games, or try him at Jorginho role.

Needs to bulk up. Honestly not comfortable with him starting. Far too soft especially against aggressive strikers. 

Stones was the same way and look at him now.

Victor Lindelöf has been much much better this year, by far the best CB Manure has.

He and AC are really close in potential. Lindelöf is a little less than two years older, and has filled out since he came, AC needs to (as a previous poster said) bulk up a bit for strength. He certainly has the necessary height (1.88m)
