Benoît Badiashile joins Chelsea

Leicester first shot on target was the pen.

Agreed hard to look at any of the defence as doing brilliantly when facing championship cannon fodder. 

However Sanchez still managed to look sh*t.

He was good today - but agree with the caveats others have raised. Hardly tested.... but he should get praise for his best performance in a long time....since the injury I would guess.

He was positionally strong defending, and useful on the ball also. The formation and role suited him, on the left of a back 3 often against a subdued Leicester attack. Good game, builds confidence. 

 
With Cucurella pushed so much further forward, the Gusto 10 role if you will, is interesting to see that Badiashile was picked ahead of Veiga, Tosin and Disasi for this game.

Now had Disasi or Tosin been picked that would have meant Colwill playing LCB rather than CCB most likely. Veiga however would have seen him stay where he was, so Badiashile has done enough for Maresca to be considered ahead of Veiga.

Perhaps on merit he prefers him to Tosin and Disasi now as well, regardless of what it means for Colwill and Fofana? 

Will be interesting to see what happens going forward.

 
He ain’t fooling me the guy is always in the clouds .. he makes atleast 2-3 big mistakes every game .

 
Between his lack of football brain and his right foot being for standing only I just don't think he can be our RCB.

Tosin or Disasi would be better short term. Long term we need to replace all 3.

 
Absolute rubbish player, shouldn't even be used as a last resort. No idea how he gets in over Disasi or Tosin, would much rather them two under any circumstances.

Great game today, I still think there's hope for him. Dissasi on the other hand...

I quite like both tbh. I'm actually prepared to give Enzo snr the benefit of the doubt and see if he can coach them. Disasi seems to offer us something at a corner for example. The pace of the league does seem to catch them out at times and they do have a mistake in em. Perhaps its a confidence thing. 

 
I think he did OK yesterday by his standards tbh.

👀

I still think we need cb's in the transfer window (along with GK and another midfielder if lavia has a genuine injury)

 
Out of the 3 of them I would rather we play Disasi. If for nothing else he is the best of the 3 in the air and the best on pitch leader.

So we can loan him with a buy option that never gets triggered?

Only chance there is RLC talks Milan in to stumping up some cash.

Juve always have money to spend and hasn't Bremer's ACL blown up recently? Could probably get them to stump up £25m for him. 

 
Benny just needs to start playing with his specs, makes him look smartish.
