Wahl Icht

I support both Chelsea and Mourinho so I want a draw

You're returning dude aren't you? I hope we draw with Mourinho.

You're right that there's no guarantee we would have won those trophies, but I honestly doubt that we wouldn't have won even one of those without Cahill. He wasn't critical to any of them. The closest would be the CL in 2012 where he did play well in the final, but i think a lot of players could have done the job he did. It was nothing special.

Huh. Which one of those dorks from ja606 are you?

Interesting you mention goal saving blocks and clearances but don't mention mistakes and the many times Cahill gets easily beaten. As for the goals, well I'd trade all those goals if it meant we could replace Cahill with a solid defender like Azpi (hasn't been at his best recently, but in general) hes never been close to the likes of prime Terry and Carvalho and has always been short of that level.

He was a part. Not a huge part. A part. And Not a part that couldn't have been played by the likes of Phil Jagielka, Phil Jones, Chris Smalling or any other average centre back. Bang average player. Always has been, always will be.

He didn't play a role in any of those trophy wins that any other half decent CB couldn't have. And the problem with Cahill starting is that we have better options at the club who should start over him.

He didn't contribute anything most other decent CBs couldn't have contributed. He's never been an important player for Chelsea

What's him being captain got to do with me talking about him not being a very good player? Besides, he never should have been made captain in the first place. Azpi or Luiz would have been better choices.

I appreciate that he's played in good teams, but he's never been more than an average player. The likes of Wes Brown, John O'Shea and Ji sung park played a lot of minutes in Man Utd title winning teams and all were average players. i aint saying he's terrible, but he's just not very good and there's no reason why he should be starting at all any more considering we have 4 better options at centre back.

Yeah I honestly feel Cahill only starts because conte is for some reason afraid to not have any English players in the team.

Historically he's always been a weak link in our team. He has never been world class or in the top 5 CBs in the league. Just a fairly average player that has no business being in our first team. I've always felt we can upgrade on him and we have two potential upgrades in Christensen and rudiger. Either should be starting ahead of him.

Imagine saying you dream about players like Cahill lol. Cahill ffs. Not Messi, not Ronaldo, Cahill.

To be fair, it's not like Cahill can do better. Makes sense he'd be loyal to Chelsea.

It's not trash, he is our worst centre back. It's a fact.
