Luiz is such a huge personality. I think he's worth keeping around for his leadership alone and if we're going to be playing possession based football he's going to work well in the system because he's one of the best passers of the ball we've got defensively. 

As Carefree said above Luiz's personality and leadership skills will be massive within the squad. Hopefully he can flourish under Sarri. I know it was against a nothing opponent but he certainly looked the best yesterday.

David sees a little kid on the internet invite him to his birthday BBQ, and decides to rock up with Baka and Ampadu.

Damn it, I had my birthday party 10 days ago, if I had known all it took was an invitation....

Class act.

Can't help but like & admire Luiz. Puts the club in a good light although I can't help but think the kid wouldn't have thanked him for taking Bakayoko along!!

Its OK, Baka went missing after that photo was taken and was found later trying to untangle his feet from a blind.

What are you talking about Nibs?

 

After a kickabout in the garden with Bakayoko the kid probably thinks he's Lionel Messi.

To think Conte wanted to sell Luiz, the guy is Chelsea and is absolutely great, he's a marketing team's dream. She should be made club captain with Dave and Haz as vice captains

Oh so you’d invite Luiz but all of us here aren’t worthy? I mean, I don’t want to speak for the whole forum, but I’m heartbroken. 

Oh Luiz is alright for staying on topic sake.

Luiz is probably the life of any party, and I'm sure you can convince me you are his equal, of even better!

 

Good save, right?

Another reason having Luiz around is great

Love that, and truly excited about both those players playing in the right formation and the right style. Nobody has ever doubted Luiz's ability when in possession of the ball and the likes of Ampadu genuinely rekindle my faint hope that this game isn't going to hell in a handbasket after all.

David Luiz is an awesome guy, I just hope he doesn't have too many brain fart moments next season when he does play.

He seems to be one of Sarri favourites already

Featured on the club web site today ... a good sign that he is very much part of the plans for 2018/19 !

Love having him around the place, look forward to having him back in the squad.

Could well be our first official shedender to join the sarriout club lol.

Regardless of what happens to Luiz himself, it appears his hair cut will never leave the BPL given how often Im seeing it on other players now....

Wait till the male pattern baldness kicks in,...... he'll look like a hippy monk.

Or perhaps he will seek out Conte's hair specialist.

The home movie footage actually shows the kid scored five times ........and Luiz was supposed to be marking him!

I love the myth about Luiz being a leader! Do you see the other players looking up to him? I don't think so. I remember that game where Frank was letting him have it big time walking off the pitch for his casual, switch-off attitude.

@just the bloke has influence within the dressing room, but that isn't always positive as we saw last season.
