Pizy 18,957 Posted July 3, 2023 Share Posted July 3, 2023 I know a lot of our fans on Twitter are buzzing about being linked with Cherki and I can see why from a pure talent POV. But the more I watch of him the more I’m skeptical about whether he’s the right player for this current Chelsea team and with Poch as manager. He’s got that same demeanor about him as Ziyech and Hazard do. Like they know their talent is awesome so they don’t really need to try that hard and have great work rate. And those things seem antithetical to the Poch philosophy. He looks like the sort of pure luxury player you drop into a team like City who are a well oiled machine. enzoforever and Vesper 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He looks ok, just looks very clunky and his touch seems very heavy, also looks very awkward with the ball at his feet, bit it seems to work for him.

Pizy 18,957 Posted July 3, 2023 Share Posted July 3, 2023 I still maintain that if we’re after a pure, creative luxury player in midfield I’d much prefer Wirtz than Cherki. I know Wirtz’s injury has been mentioned here but he looks WAY more decisive in the final third than Cherki does. He’s an assist and key pass machine whereas Cherki reminds me of Kova. A great dribbler and someone who can carry the ball in tight areas but not someone who decides matches. Wirtz could be Poch’s new Eriksen.

I can imagine him playing for City in the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah i think he lacks in acceleration and tempo to sustain the PL. Technically he is superb but man it looks like he is running with a parachute attached to him..

Ironically, the player Wirtz most reminds me of on the ball is a current City player: Phil Foden. So long as we have 2 midfielders behind him that are tigerish and mobile like Enzo & Caicedo I think we could afford a creative type in our team. And that’s what Poch had at Spuds.

It only makes sense if he has fully recovered and we are planning on moving RJ to midfield in the mid term. he basically costs us nothing and already knows the club and the PL inside out.

Left to develop and play because Reece was here then we signed Gusto in Jan and now want another young RB who needs to play to develop? Fffffffsssss lol Even with a loan back…. its so stupid.

I’d hate that. Reece has the ability to play in midfield in a pinch but I wouldn’t want him there for any length of time. Takes away his best attributes.
