Not to mention he’s very precise with his passing and doesn’t ‘force’ the pass to the extent Jorginho does. Something I witnessed Jorginho do a lot this season, and in most cases it led to an opposition counter. City’s 1st goal against us when we were in control springs to mind. In fact, I would say he more resembles Gilmour than Jorginho. No idea who’s better defensively, but at this point it can’t be any worse than what we have currently. In my opinion it would be easier for Gilmour to transition in the squad with Pjanic than Jorginho. Agreed. Pjanic is a better player than Jorginho. Although I don't think Pjanic will bring the same kind of passion to our club that Jorginho has. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes he is younger than Telles etc but imo not as good. Pjanic is quality but just turned 30, Jorgo is 28. In any case midfield is not a concern to fight over imo, we have much bigger holes here and there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More like 1.5 years but I get your point. So who would you rather have for the coming season, Jorgo or Pjanic? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vesper 30,195 Posted May 15, 2020 Share Posted May 15, 2020 Chelsea 'make decision on Jorginho, N'Golo Kante futures' By Matt Law, Football Editor | 25m https://www.sportsmole.co.uk/football/chelsea/transfer-talk/news/chelsea-make-decision-on-jorginho-ngolo-kante-futures_399534.html Chelsea will reportedly 'resist any offers' for midfield pair Jorginho and N'Golo Kante this summer. Both players have been linked with moves away from Stamford Bridge ahead of the 2020-21 campaign. Juventus are allegedly interested in bringing Jorginho back to Italy, while Real Madrid and Barcelona are believed to be admirers of Kante. However, according to ESPN, Frank Lampard's side are not prepared to listen to bids for either player during this summer's transfer window. The report adds that Chelsea 'want to be active' in the upcoming market despite the financial impact of the coronavirus outbreak, which has halted the majority of football across the globe. Lampard was unable to bring any new players to the club last summer due to a transfer ban, but the London outfit were free to do business in January after their suspension was reduced on appeal.

Pizy 18,926 Posted May 16, 2020 Share Posted May 16, 2020 Yeah, I don't think we're going to touch our central midfield this next window and tbf we really don't need to. If Frank does feel the need to bring another body in id say it makes more sense to get a DM rather than another attack minded creative player. Like that lad from Lille perhaps? Kante, Jorginho, Kova, Billy, and RLC on the books. That's plenty of bodies. A destroyer type is the only thing missing since Kante is never deployed there anymore.

Pizy 18,926 Posted May 16, 2020 Share Posted May 16, 2020 I forget, is Auba out of contract at Arse or just entering the final year? Because surely they wouldn't even consider selling to us and would rather see him leave for free than to give him to us regardless of fee. Would be a great signing for 2-3 seasons.
