The signing of Chilwell proves that Leicester fans talk pish. 

You can't blame people for talking down a player who wants out.

It was early into the rumours. They said he’s decent and all rounded but doesn’t overly impress either defensively or going forward. Well, having seen Alonso for years, Chilwell and his fabulous pigeon walk, certainly impresses. He’s great. 

Ben has been a breath of fresh air,he shows us what we have been missing to to long.

I forget how young he is also. Full back positions look great. He needs a decent backup though.

Ashley Cole apparently recommended him when I think 90% of us on here didn't see it. Thanks Ash, hooked us right up! 

What a player!

What the f**k does Ashley bleedin’ Cole know about being a left back anyway?

That was clearly Ashley Cole making amends for the time he once killed a pigeon at LA Galaxy. 
 

It makes more sense now. 

Gone off injured 😞 hopefully just precautionary.

I hate internationals. It serves as a reminder that we need to get some better backup options for Chilwell, Silva and Mendy.

Doesn’t look bad. I’ll be surprised if he’s out for our next game.

Gareth said after the match that Ben could not carry on so it was not precautionary imo.

Arise Sir Marcos Alonso

I think Emerson is ahead of Alonso now after how badly Alonso reacted to being subbed off earlier in the season.

We have Italy number 1 left back with clubs like Inter, Juve interested in as a backup left back for us. Not many clubs have a good a backup as that. For Silva we have Tomori and Rudiger hardly poor players. We do need a backup GK for Mendy though, not exactly an easy position. to fill though.

If he's injured we're going to miss him, without him I think everyone will be able to see the difference on the pitch as soon as the next game starts.

We won't see such good crosses from Emerson and it's fair to say that Emerson didn't adapt that well because defensively he didn't mark his area well enough when he was given a chance.

Sod them both I totally forgot about captain Azpi, we're saved!

He's back in training with England despite his back spasms that ended his participation vs Belgium prematurely. Obviously now England have reverted to type he's essential so they don't lose three in a row and will be risked just to hide Southgate's blushes so lets hope his back is  not worsened and he don't catch Covid as he is essential for our team to keep maintaining form. 

All day I was thinking England played today. No idea where I got that from, but I came in here looking to see if Chilwell was in the XI low and behold they play tomorrow. I'm a dum

Never has a bad game. Not so much offensively tonight but very assured defensively.

You didn't watch the Rennes game away then?. He nearly gifted them 2 goals with bad passes. He has been good for us so far this season but yes he has bad games.

Gettin' old and past his prime. Should probably sell in Jan 

I hope his injury is minor and he is back for arsenal game.

Looks like a sprained ankle to me. Hopefully I’m wrong.
