← Chelsea Centre-Backs

One of many problems on the pitch at the moment 🤦‍♂️

ngoroyemotoa3mo ago

Stop that we need his quick reaction

ngoroyemotoa3mo ago

No not on centre back but on the attacking side, as you see that there were so many times when Chelsea played Neto on the left wing which is something disturbed Neto's form. Left winger was our problem and on number 10 we need someone who is vigilant, capable of shooting the ball and quicker than Enzo and stronger than Palmer the likes of Gibbs white

I am out of my depths why Jose Acheampong never get minutes under both rosenoir and mcfarlane. He is many times better n reliable than Gusto, foffanna and saar. Why did we even sign Saar in the first place?

solidrock0071mo ago

Because it was a free transfer, which can fetch us money in the future.

Our pride of London is suffering from killer strikers and solid or concrete back four defense

daniel.owen5mo ago

The problem is, Chelsea have a tonne of centre-backs who seem to all be around the same level. No stand-outs among them really

oyelajasher5mo ago

I sympathizes with your predicament

robertgriffiths19865mo ago

Im just joking here but lets fast track Silva's lad into the center back role....couldn't hurt 🤣🤣🤣

smifferz815mo ago

TBF, he's probably got more bottle than Wes

prjbranch265mo ago

Fofana is nowhere near good enough . We never should have bought him , especially with his injury record . In my opinion acheampong should have been used in central defence more . Disasi , tosin and badashille should be sold . More than those 3 leaving , along with Fofana , Rosenior should be sacked .

smifferz815mo ago

Fofana is a bottler. He's not played anywhere near his capabilities. Sarr isn't quite ready for the Premier League yet. Chalobah is our best choice after Colwill, he always fights to win. Same with Josh Acheampong. Then there's Disasi, he's been good since he went to Wet Spam.

solidrock0075mo ago

Agree with all, but Disasi. He's no where near Chelsea standard!

ronniemcmahon665mo ago

We need centre halves who have some bottle,not ones like fofana who wouldnt go into a tackle if his mothers life depended on it

smifferz815mo ago

Fofana should be sold imo. Bring in Senesi on a free and boom we have him and Levi as first choice. Keep Josh and Trev, send Sarr and Anselmino on loan.

smifferz816mo ago

When Levi is out and Wes and Trev have bad games the other options are either unproven or not good enough (Sarr and Anselmino not ready, Benoit and Tosin not good enough) except Josh, he's the only one I'd trust after Levi, Wes and Trev. If we get Pavlovic that might help. But I say we get Rudiger. Someone who knows the club and cares.

philchristie19556mo ago

Personally I think Fofana is operated. I hope Colwill returns as good as before the injury but often that is not the case. We do need a solid defensive pairing who can also pass the ball forward rather than sideways. And yes, we do miss the leadership and experience of Thiago

olusegunjoshua196mo ago

I for Colwill quick recovery. Coach should start to trust Josh & Sarr

femiekundayo7265mo ago

That would bring down the whole team if they should pair those two

solidrock0075mo ago

A real disaster!!!

isaackhoza646mo ago

True said ,centre back position is pathetic at chelsea

aediusm6mo ago

According to my own opinion i don't think the problem is the CB or the the coach but beyond, the board should address the matters on time

katadiyocharles16mo ago

We need quality not quantity let the rest go and keep Fofana home

lindongalcock6mo ago

It is a modern problem. Managers know what a team needs but dont have the autonomy to go and get tjose players. Sporting directors decode who we sign, and quite often sign the wrong players. Until the manager is given complete signing control, our signings will continue to be hit and miss, lately more miss than hit.

srsbrgh6mo ago

That's why Tuchel left because the SD told him we're signing the players who we think you need

lindongalcock6mo ago

Sorry about the typos. Arthritis and a small keypad are a bad mix lol.

dclementsfamily46mo ago

WHAT DO YOU MEAN "At the moment ?" How about for the last three or more seasons ?

caleb.sage6mo ago

Good point😅, though I don't think it was as dire when Colwill was fit and Silva was still at the club.
