What's new

Benoît Badiashile joins Chelsea

Very impressive so far, calm,strong and I think he’s a good passer as well.

Solid player.

What is noticeable for me is although he’s being guided by Silva he isn’t be carried by Silva and they are forming a good partnership together.

Big difference to when K2 is playing.

Actually can’t wait to see a back 3 of Fofana, Silva and BB with KK somewhere else 

I reckon that would be solid

Don’t think we are going back to a back 3 again. Potter has said he wants to play a 4-2-3-1 that can morph into a 3-4-3 in game.

I am a big fan of Wesley Forfana, once he steers clear of injuries for a bit people will see how good he is.

 
Looks to be a brilliant signing. These are the type of signings that we need - smart ones. 2 very good games. 

 
I know its early but I would like to see him play with Chalobah at some point. Want to see how he fairs when he isn't paired with Silva. 

Would also like to see him at RCB (in the hypothetical Fofana becomes injury prone and Colwill comes in at LCB) given he's played there before at Monaco. 

 
Feels nice to actually sign someone that can automatically just be good and healthy. There was a particular situation on the left wing, we had a couple of players trying to get past the defense and Jorginho failed to pass towards Mudryk I think, the ball was lost and Liverpool went fast on the attack in a matter of maybe 5 seconds, someone was making the right run and the pass was coming and boom, this guy buddy guy Badiashile Benoit (still have to get the hang of his name) intercepted that ball that otherwise would have resulted in Liverpool having a real chance.

He's tall but he thinks fast and has no problem with the pace of the game at all. Looks like he settled better than Koulibaly, which is sad for Koulibaly.

 
He looked great against Liverpool with his back to goal that's for sure, but Pool made it easy for him with their play. 

That said his distribution problems are still apparent, if a little better than I've seen him before. 

Deffo looking on track to prove me wrong!

Going from strength to strength. He wasn't what I was hoping for as a CB signing but what a good run of games. 

Like he's been with us for years

 
Done more in 3 games than Fofana in 8 months unfortunately.  That partnership is a good prospect though (as Silva won't go on forever!)

 
A bit raw in some of his decision making both with and without the ball but you can see the potential.

 
The scary thing is he’s 21 and from what I have seen worth every penny. He will get massively better and he’s not slow either.
