    @bort
    As I recall we won the CL with both Cahill AND Luiz as CB ?

    We have expressed our desire to see our academy graduates in the first team, signing VD which IMO is not an area we need to strengthen, will further block the path of players like Christensen, and Kalas and like @stuilse rightly said, definitely not for 70m.

    And btw why should 9 provide you with a reference when the same was asked of you by Bort regarding Llorente and your answer was something a la “no one cares what you think”? With that being said, I do agree with you that v Dijk is a better player than Cahill, but that is a matter of opinion ?

    Cahill started ahead of terry on a injury for a start. secondly, hes now 5 year older and going downhill. Totally irrelevent that he won the cl 5 years ago. on that merit we mayswel bring torres back

    Yet another face in palm moment for Phwepsi:

    “Totally irrelevent that he won the cl 5 years ago. on that merit we mayswel bring torres back”

    In the last 2 season Torres has played 21 games for Atletico Madrid in Champions league and has been to a final and Semi final.

    See you are a legit poster with an opinion that isn’t self righteous. I have not seen Van Dijk no where nearly as regularly as Cahill or as close up and scrutinsed his every minute but but based on what I have seen he looks decent.

    One thing I will say is, Cahill is of Terry mold. He is our current captain and has a similar body on the line commitment/attitude on the field and these are qualities Van Dijk may struggle with.

    Hmm if you go back and check. Ull see i responded to bort with the actual quote from lorente. To prove him wrong. Again. Hes normally wrong about most things

    I will however do something the mighty bort has never done and admit i was wrong…. about the ox. Right now, id take him in a heartbeat. Its not just the sun thats reporting this either. Its sky

    phwepsi, you’re obviously a passionate Chelsea fan, a major contributor to the site and make some good points along the way but it would be great if you could cut back a bit on the confrontational side in some of your posts.

    I’ve been pushing for the signing of Ox for ages. He’d be a welcome addition for so may reasons. Right age, versatile, has pace, plenty PL experience and is English.

    Maybe its because he can play wingback and is better than moses and can also play cm as backup. It makes sense on alot of levels and they arnt many right wingbacks around. I honestly cant see arsenal selling him to us. We are the far superior team. It wont work like chech did

    Matic to United?

    Seemingly agreed by Roman providing United pay £35m plus a £15m Lukaku tax. 🙂

    It’s a lot of money for Matic even in a crazy market but I would still rather see him sold to Juve for less.

    Well 1-0 up against Arsenal with Willian scoring our goal. this summer transfer isn’t as bad as people led us to believe. a central defender was a priority, that has been addressed. an energetic midfielder, that has also been addressed. a striker was also a priority, that as well has also been address. and i will be surprised if more signings do not arrive. i have to say i was frustrated earlier but now fully satisfied with our business. Antonio Conte knows what he was doing when he texted Costa. and yesterday he has revealed that Costa knew that he was off in the summer. i was delighted with the way the the club has backed Conte to the last man. and rightly so since we can’t afford to lose such a talent. my only worry is that the rumors say, we are considering selling Matic to United. for me that will be a big mistake. if Matic wants to move and seek regular first team football. then he should go abroad. there is no way we should strengthen United and Mourinho. after what happened with Lukaku.

    2-0 and should be 3-0 as there was no offside. Looking good especially as Arsenal have already had three matches to condition themselves. Mostly dominated by Chelsea to half time. Hope Pedro is OK after being clattered by their keeper.

    Chelsea look in superb shape. Moses has been very good but so has Ox

    Batshuayi my word he is looking very good. Unselfish composed strong good on the ball and he has 2 goals and it should have been 3 one wrongly given offside

    the reserve striker is looking a bit lively – Like to see him given more playing time this season, looks dangerous in front of goal.

    I still think we need another striker/ attacking mid. People are underestimating how many must win games we have this season. A couple of injuries and we’ll be very weak. The squad is very very thin
