On his way to the World Cup to replace the injured Livramento. Good luck Trev - know you’ll be an absolute professional as always.

Funny game. Had the worst season of his career, gets a call up to his first world cup.

TT at his most stubborn. No specialist cover for RB or LB. It will end in tears.

Chalobah can play rb no problem. I don't really think you need specialist as TT probably will play more of inverted fb

Good old Trev.

Blue Co will probably increase his asking price now just before they get him to train with the youth team then loan him out. Sharp cookies our Sporting directors.

And when it comes to actual defending?

Think he has benefited from Maguire and his mum gobbing off and Tuchel not seeing TAA as a team player. I think a lot of other managers would have opted for them ahead of Chalobah

If the choice was Trev or specialist RB Trent I’d trust Trev to defend much better

Me too. But who proposed Trent?

What other specialist RB options are there? Trippier? Kyle Walker?

Danny Mills.

Chalobah is a very good defender as rb. Compare to all of our CB, he is the only one who can really defend both as fb and CB.

Chalobah is a decent CB yet is not progressive enough as a RB, perhaps TT is thinking we may need to go three at the back.

Hopefully we are using a UCL club to drive the price up in the hope of rinsing a PL club for some good money. Must sell Chalobah, Disasi and Badiashile this summer. Fofana, as well, would be a dream departure, but who the hell is going to be that stupid and touch those wages of his?!

If he were to leave I can’t think of a better destination for him.

He’s not the 1st or the 2nd or the 3rd of our wonderful Centre Back’s I’d be trying to offload but I suppose he’s the most ‘profitable’ so it makes sense.

Could we make it part of the Paz deal… for PSR purposes obviously.

They're having to watch their pennies. Richest club in Italy in terms of ownership - multi-billionaires - but last season's pre-tax loss was €100m+ after spending big following promotion.

Can't they bid for Tosin, Badiashile, Fofana or Disasi instead? I don't think Chalobah had the best of seasons (he was terrible in fact) but I would keep him over the other 4.

Disasi will attract interest after his good showing at WH.

He'll do well in Italy, wouldn't surprise me if he's one of the stand out defenders in the league.

I'd imagine Tosin too if there is a club that would just pay off his remaining wages. Badiashile is just a lost cause who will be training with the reserves at this rate considering Hato is superior at LCB.

Fofana is anyone's guess.

That's telling as that is where we are shopping now
