That may be so but you can't rely on Disasi to do last ditch cause his reading of the game is nowhere near what Cahill's was.

That is partly due to how we played football at the time. Imagine if Cahill was playing as high as a line as we are now. If Disasi was asked to camp inside our own defensive box he'd probably read the game at a similar level to Cahill.

It's not though. Go back and watch the basic concentration mistakes Diasi has made this season, all of it has happened when we are defending around our box. Oddly enough the mistakes he makes highly up the pitch are ones of his own making such as playing a bad pass or taking forever to control the ball. It's rarely due to poor defending per say.

I mean when asked to defend the box against City he was pretty spectacular. 

I honestly think the bulk of Disasi's errors came from individual mistakes whilst high up the pitch and being easily dragged out of position whilst still in a high line.

Not disputing he has solid games.

I'm quite confident it's the opposite, it's just we get punished more by the high line (Not his defending specifically, just the high line in general) than the mistakes he makes when defending the box.

He reminds me of Cahill. Genuinely. 

Consistent. Not great, but good enough to be in the back line. Has an error in him now and again, but needs to be partnered with someone more imposing before he can take the reigns himself. 

Reminds me of a Rudiger imo, similar style and suited to be the B side centreback. Can have some great games, but some horror mistakes also in there.

Not to mention both of them are pretty tanky units

Why do I read this guy is one of our better players, ‘Scuse me’, he is one of the most one dimensional players to wear our Blue, if he receives the ball in space he doesn’t step fwd or try to pass through the lines, and 99% of his out ball is to Gusto or that Right sided player, a predictable 10-15 yd pass, and his decision making is woeful, ie his ridiculous OG…

Hmm actually not true.. he is very useful in the air.. at both ends of the pitch.. every now and then plays a decent pass.. he is a covering defender playing as a stopper which shows him up from time to time..  i think it’s his first season and has shown much more promise than KK who was supposed to be world class.

Went on a decent run of form, won motm against City, been sh*t ever since.

If Chalobah was French and came from Leipzig instead of Cobham, Diasi wouldn't of been purchased and talk of needing another CB wouldn't of ever been a talking point. 

Senseless. 

Disasi's like a bull in a china shop most games, charging around with eyes wide, veins pumping, and screaming at the crowd every opportunity. All that's missing is the ring through his nose.

So a French international is not better than Trev? 
 

correct

Is said to be considering his future and may ask to be sold before the window closes.

Ok with me. Though I'd have Badiasielle out before him.

Agreed. He missed pre season injured and am left wondering if it is that Marecsa does not rate him and has told him so or the Enzo incident has soured him on Chelsea?

Either way if he got will be hard to break even on his remaining 32mill book value.

Hopefully doesn’t spend too long considering it and does just ask to leave.

The fact we’ve had Desailly, JT, Carvalho, Silva, the list goes on and we were left with Disasi & Badiashille last year shows the heights the club has fallen from. 

He should be on the Chilwell boat if not fitting the managers system. Can’t play sweeper and is a tragic outside CB. 
 

Just a bloody average CB and it makes me sick I ever compared him to Cahill. 

Can he take Badiashile too? 

Can we also keep Trev now, send the brothers of destruction off to train with the kids. 

 

Wouldn’t be upset at all if both the Monaco pair were to leave. Don’t rate either of them in the slightest. 

If we could recoup what we paid for him it would be a miracle.

Newcastle, along with United, were linked with Disasi before we got him last year.

Could well be some merit here, and would cost them half the Marc G asking price most likely.

Might be a smokescreen to send a message to Palace but you never know.

I don't really rate Disasi so I wouldn't be upset if we sold him.

We should now turn our attention to Marc Guehi instead, at least we wouldn't have to pay the full asking price.

We still might, we have a matching clause/first refusal ie Palace must accept any matching offer from us over other clubs, but Guehi is free to reject us

Smart move would be to reintegrate Chalobah who can cover multiple positions 

With Andersen going to Fulham hopefully this means Palace remain firm with Guehi and Newcastle turn to Disasi
