BC really sounds daft as a brush in his first interview, using "massive", "stuff" and "you know" twice in every sentence. I hope his not as stupid as Barkley on the pitch.

He hangouts with Drinkwater, what do you expect?

JFC! Aren't you lot being somewhat judgmental here?

Don't worry about it @Jason some members had fucking bullets ready for Chilwell before he even signed.

I hope Werner and Havertz don't turn out to be as stupid as Rudiger on the pitch considering they hang out with him...

He can sound as daft as he wants as long as he delivers on the pitch. Thats the important thing, why people care what someone sounds like or what their IQ is or who they kick about with or how many cars they have or whatever when their paid to kick a football is beyond me, just freakishly weird. As long as he doesn't do anything stupid off the park and does well on it, I dont care about anything else. That should be the criteria for footballers. Nothing else really. He will be an improvement on our other LBs. 50m not bad compared to the 80m we were first told to pay.

Harry kane sounds like a retard but he still scores shit tons of goals every season. And chillwell sounds like pretty much all English 22 year old footballers

[BlueLyon 9,359]

Haha I was not super excited about him either, but to point out stuff like how he talks, he must be stupid?

Are we still in age when people with tattoos are considered crazy then? 

No one should ever judge people by appearance. If for nothing else, for your own sake because underestimating others can put you in a very bad position.

I am not saying that the way he sounds has any relevance for his success. It is just that this signing has felt like the Drinkwater & Barkley ones from the very beginning and this corny interview very much adds to that. I obvoiusly hope he will turn out better. No one was talking about appearance tho.

I just saw that. Even if it is limited practice, it is a great sign.

[NikkiCFC 7,623]

Already working with the ball 10 days before Brighton? He is not that far away... I hope for Liverpool he will be fit.

English players don't really have a glamorous feel to their interviews and presence in general. Pretty dull personalities are English footballers. You do have the odd exception here and there like Ian Wright or Peter Crouch. All that matters, is what they do on the pitch. Let's hope Chillwells feet do the talking.

#21 confirmed for Chilwell...

He could not get number 3 from Alonso?
