A ball winner, a passer and a creator (what kova need to do for us) Last year with Hazard we have a wc creator. So our midfield does not need to create much but I don't know about Puli. So we need more, that is why Willian will probably play morebut I need to watch Puli game first. You are expecting kovacic to create? We just had a complete season of him creating nothing but shit and you want us to play the exact same 3 in the mid. I would put in mount instead of watching kovacic dribble past a player and then look haplessly about Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have never watched Mason Mount to give opinion on this matter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That midfield has no creativity or end product bar the occasional Jorginho lobbed pass. 1905didierblue 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think we have any option. We have Bakayoko, Kante - two runner or box to box Ruben - injured Barkley + kova, one has better physical attribute and the other is superior technically. Jorginho - ball mover That is all we have. We basically need a player to play between the lines that is going to be kova and Barkley role.

!Hazard! 3,394 Posted July 4, 2019 Share Posted July 4, 2019 Gotta laugh at all these "This is how Lampard's Chelsea will lineup in 19/20" articles from several different newspapers which state that Lamps would want to play Barkley, Mount, Drinkayoko or Ampadu in place of Jorginho.

The midfield is going to need some quick and decisive decision making. Bakayoko, Barkley, Drinkwater, Jorginio, Kante, Kovacic, Loftus-Cheek, Mount can't all be accommodated and there are other midfielders we could list in addition to these. Some need to leave one way or another. Vesper 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That leaves us 6 midfielders, which is good as far as depth is concerned. It has top 4 quality too in fairness, also some promising untapped quality.
