Not impressed with Morata's comments about 'not staying in London very long as it is too big and stressful'. That maybe the case but keep quiet please, you are getting a lot of fan support and have a huge price around your neck.

{Ed001's Note - why does he not just live in a quieter part then?}

Or just stay outside the actual city. Perhaps he’ll settle but it seems like another potential Costa situation where he’ll want to return to Italy regardless of how well he does for us. If that’s the case I’d push hard for Dybala next summer and offer Morata in exchange personally.

Ed001:- He lives in Chelsea and apparently enjoys the ethnicity of the city but finds it a stressful environment. Fine and I would probably agree but he is still trying to establish himself, we have a big game coming up so why say anything. Very disappointing especially after the fiasco with Costa.

Agree1 Disagree0

{Ed001's Note - that's my point, if you find it too big and stressful move to somewhere smaller and less stressful. I can understand him not liking London, it is not for me either, and he does come from a totally different lifestyle, but you have to find ways to make it work.}

It’s what he said that he won’t be there long, I’m second interview his said he loves London but lots of traffic and crowds, same stuff that people who live in London and work in London think about London., will no doubt move further outside like few of the players have done,

Did he also say, that if Chelsea offered him a ten year contract, he would sign it?

He did say he would sign a ten year contract after being in a corner and of course he also knew it would never happen. I personally don't mind if he is unhappy but there is a time and place to say those things, not before an important game for your team. Personally I am looking for a hat trick in payment!

Hatrick and 3 assists.6-0.

Hello guys!
I've been doing some thinking, and I actually think we should start AC ahead of Rudiger and Cahill. Now, I'm Danish, so I may be biased, which is why I'd like to hear your opinions. I think AC has seemed way more confident and comfortable than both Cahill and Rudiger most of the time. I also think Rudiger, although he has an amazing physique, tends to make a few mistakes and seem like a liability when he's got the ball, although he seems to get by decently. Cahill, I simply don't think has the level to start when our squad is fully fit anymore.
I guess, however, that one of the problems with AC is that he perhaps plays too much like Luiz, but AC is young, and we should be able to suit him for either LCB or RCB easily.

i am sure there are dozens of permutations that will come up but i would settle for rudiger as his reads the game better.
courtois -azi, luiz, rudiger and then across the middle to stop roma coming onto us as we allowed at home - kante, drinkwater, bayakoko, alonso with pedro, morata and hazard.
key subs being zappacosta if kante tires, ampadou for bayakoko and controversially, willian who i think is finding his feet again.

Really we should start Azpi, Christensen and Rudiger in a back three and move Luiz to midfield while Baka adjusts. We still need to sign another top centre back next season even with Zouma returning.

Agree5 Disagree5

I fail to see why we need another top CB. Perhaps if Cahill moves on I could see the need for an extra body, but I personally think Rudiger, AC and Azpi should be our starting CB’s. Bringing in someone like Van Dijk (who I doubt rate at all) will likely want to start week in, week out.

When you play two games a week you need quality. Bringing Cahill into the side is not quality unless you’re happy with him marshalling our defence 😂.

That’s why I said we should replace Cahill.
