We continue to work on and off the pitch, and we’re delighted Marc will be a part of the present and future at Chelsea.’ Behdad Eghbali and José E. Feliciano , co-controlling owners, said: ‘We’re very excited to bring Marc to Chelsea and he is another key part of our squad building as we enter the new season. We’re all looking forward to getting started on the pitch now, and Marc only adds to that feeling. We welcome him to the club!’ Edited Friday at 11:33 by manpe 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Strike 6,262 Posted Friday at 12:11 Share Posted Friday at 12:11 Excited about this signing because I really did not expect a left-wing back upgrade. Was resigned to the fact that it would be Emerson/Alonso or at best Maehle type of signing. Will be a huge leap from Emerson/Alonso to having a fit again Chilwell competing with Cucurella.

OneMoSalah 7,785 Posted Friday at 12:35 Share Posted Friday at 12:35 I think he will need some time to adapt, clearly he has a good skillset and ability but I think the jump in quality and teams sitting in against us most weeks as well as looking to punish spaces that the likes of him and James will leave trying to get forward, it will maybe take him a bit of time to hit that level he was for Brighton at times. Good signing either way. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

King Kante 1,086 Posted Friday at 14:00 Share Posted Friday at 14:00 Probably overpriced but he is a very good player and we need those. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
milka 2,863 Posted Friday at 14:36 Share Posted Friday at 14:36 Better than Alonso and Emerson for sure . He was one of the best in Brighton last season and win player of the year there so i think he will be successful in Chelsea . Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Henrique 9,077 Posted Friday at 19:44 Share Posted Friday at 19:44 I have a soft spot for players with epic hairdos. He is now my favorite player since David Luiz left. 1 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Last Sicarius 595 Posted Friday at 19:59 Share Posted Friday at 19:59 Really good signing. He can play as LCB, LB, LWB. Even more like winger. As we are playing 5 back he is really big upgrade. And we will not see Alonso :3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Forces the opposition much more work to man mark everyone. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Forces the opposition much more work to man mark everyone. But in a possession based team, traditionally, if your number 6 is of the ilk that the likes of a Jorginho, Busquets, de Jong (at Ajax) are then 9 times out of 10, they drop into the space between the two central defenders or in the zone just in front of them when the teams in possession as most modern day CBs go out wider and play higher. So you’ve still basically got 343. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Magic Lamps 10,548 Posted 22 hours ago Share Posted 22 hours ago Cucu looked really sharp and apparently did not feel the pressure of his price tag at all. Would have loved him to provide that assist to Sterling if not for that last ditch block. I hope he starts next week, Chilly clearly looked off the pace. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
