Superblue 6,372 Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 Just now, Special Juan said: Looks like Cucurella is going to be announced before 12pm today I think he needs to be registered by noon to be able to be in the squad tomorrow. Tuchel's comment suggests that is in their thought process, even if it's as an option on the bench. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Special Juan 28,141 Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 Great signing, new kit announced and Chelsea Twitter admin having the Brighton FC Twitter pants down. Now for Everton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clockwork 1,794 Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 Surely Cucurella will be starting at LWB? No way you pay 62.5m to play him out of position. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Special Juan 28,141 Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 If he's fit he plays, and that is probably fine because he has been training with Brighton Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizy 18,903 Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 Get in! But I’d actually wait until next match to play him. I’m sure his fitness levels are fine but I wouldn’t throw him straight in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it'll be predominantly wing back but with the knowledge that in a situation where the team needs to rotate or due to players missing he can also fill into the back 3.

Alonso won't play if his move to Barca is nearly done. I'd much rather him play than Emerson or Kenedy. OhForAGreavsie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chelsea_4_eva 1,182 Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 Also an indication of Chilwell being not ready yet was when we played Udinese and he was on the 2nd squad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pizy 18,903 Posted August 5, 2022 Share Posted August 5, 2022 Hopefully Leicester’s cash problems are a big enough issue that if we bid £80m they can’t really say no. Because otherwise this Cucurella fee may have priced us out of Fofana who they may suddenly quote us £100m now. Would also be beneficial if Fofana himself pushes for the move and forces the issue.

That might be the simple truth or it might be a way to avoid saying that he isn't fully sold on Ben. Either way I doubt many doubt that we're in a better place at LB/LWB than we've been for a while.
