Why is everyone so against Luiz leaving? He is a defensive liability when used as a CB. He often holds on to the ball too long because he thinks he is invincible and he wastes way too many set pieces. He is fast and can pass the ball but beyond that he's over rated for me. I would happily take Matic back for the DM position, with Josh Mc or Chalobah being blooded and Romelu as back up.

Luiz has been carrying the team for most of the second half of the season. As a CB I admit he has his flaws, but as DM he's been quite magnificent. Apart from that he's quite the charachter, has got good leadership qualities and personally, I think he would be the most suited to wear the armband after JT and Super Frank. It would be a massive blow if we were to lose him

He was one of our best players last season, was probably our best central defender and we looked worse off without him, there was a reason he played almost every game under Rafa, and played in all the important ones.
He is mobile, reads the game well and can increase the tempo which is something I have never seen a CB do before. He wants to win more than most in the squad and is a person that people like, which is a good thing to have in a squad of players competing under stressful circumstances.
For me he is the obvious choice to wear the armband in a season or two (presuming he is not sold).

He is criticized unfairly by the media because they are lazy and regardless of performances churn out the same stories week in week out. Of the players in the squad currently he is one of a few who I would say we need to build around, and who should not be sold.

There is a reason Barca want him!

What I love about him is the passion he shows when playing. AM

I am not surprised that first poster hasn't put his name down. Have you been watching Chelsea games? or just read what reporters say after the game? Look at Luiz playing what influence he has and how much love he puts when he plays! For me he is one of most influential and needed member of the team.

Simle Luiz or Mikel in there, take
Uiz anyday pay far better with him than Mikel.

I'm a Manchester United fan but admit that Luiz is an absolutely fantastic player. i'd love him at OT. The fans that don't appreciate him astound me. I think he's better as a defensive midfielder though. He seems a good character to have in the club and that alone is priceless for team morale. If he goes to Barcelona; he will be hard to replace.

Glad Jose is back - will be an interesting season next year and the best team will win! Good luck!
