If he stays fit I’ve no doubt he’s our best CB. What surprised me was his pace. Once he’s up to full fitness we have a top player.

I don’t think either Fofana or Colwill looked great first half vs Wolves but I’d argue the chaos ahead of them in midfield was at the root of that. If Tosin can get a bit of form then all the better because he’s probably next in line for minutes. 
 

If we can get a couple of our CBs off the books in the next few days I wouldn’t be surprised if the Brazilian lad from Forest arrives. 
 

 

They'd want £65m+ for him

I really like tosins attitude but I'm starting to doubt his abilities tbh. Need to see more of him but I think it's too early atm to mess about with the colwill fofana partnership. Maybe the grp stages of ecl, he can get some time on the pitch, but risky in the PL atm imo.

I also really like Tosin. And i also like Will smallbone.

Tosin + smallbone .... a dream.

There's a promising young CB coming through in in Bulgaria called Petr Eujoff. I think we we paired them together Tosin Eujoff, that would be us sorted for years to come.

You two OK?

I was feeling quite tense, but since posting that I now feel very relieved and relaxed.

You'd pull em off at half time though if we had Areola nip-ping around at the back

my proposed fantasy football team name was in honour of my 2 fav gk's : Flekken Areola

It got flagged and I had to change it....👎

Benny Hill resurrects.

Wes is called up by France. Great news for him. Play 3 games for Chelsea and you are back 😃

Yet Gusto still can't get a look in. 

Fingers crossed he stays injury free.

Deschamps prefers Mendy as back up to T. Hernandez. Oh well.

Mixed feelings about him being called up. Happy for him, but really worried Deschamps completely ignores his history with injuries and gives him 90 minutes in both games (or until he brakes down)

Wouldn’t be the first time!

Deschamps is a w**ker, he does this all of the time. He did it to Kante every single time when it was obvious that Kante needed to be managed carefully.

Withdraws from international duty to «work on his fitness» . Very, very good choice and relieving to know that Deschamps wont be able to butcher him just yet

Brilliant news

Again I thought he and Colwill were brilliant for the majority of the game. Definitely a promising pairing the build on. 

The defensive transition is where we get exposed time and time again. It took Sarri until match week 2 to figure it out. 

Thought he was a bit of a weapon by blowing the Enzo thing out of proportion with his racebaiting. Now I’ve just read the recent interview he’s done in France basically pulling a Lukaku on us by talking up a move to Marseille. Can we just get rid regardless of ability?

Get out of here with that nonsense. Racebaiting for f**ks sake. 

🤦🏾‍♂️

What's this about a move to Marseille? All i've seen is pictures recently of him wearing a Chelsea shirt as a child, can't imagine he'd want to leave.

"the current objective is to succeed at Chelsea, to try and play regularly, and to establish myself at my club."

He then says he has a contract until 2029 then maybe see after that. Nothing to this.
