I'd take Cech back any day. Courtois doesn't have the mentality it seems and when the going gets tough he wasn't to run back to La Liga.

Re: ***The Official Chelsea FC Thread***
I was pretty disappointed for both goals honestly. Pretty much 100% Bego's fault, though our defense didn't have great communication with Alonso in the side it seems. Both goals started from his side as well.Comment

Re: ***The Official Chelsea FC Thread***
I'm sure I've said this before, but this is the downside to our loan system even when it works and we get back a high quality player. Courtois has no attachment to the club at all, which makes sense as he spent 3 straight seasons with Atletico.
We've only had 2 players get loaned out multiple times and still remain loyal to Chelsea, and we sold them both (Bertrand and Lukaku).
If Courtois doesn't start coming around soon then we need to just go ALL in on Butland before another big club snaps him up.
Although that kid we signed in the summer is supposedly a very bright prospect. Had Barca/Bayern and PSG after him as well.Comment

Re: ***The Official Chelsea FC Thread***
So after scoring 2 goals in midweek, does Fabregas come into the side for the derby against his old mates?Comment

Re: ***The Official Chelsea FC Thread***
He played well in both games last season, I'd imagine he will be used, more a matter of whether he starts or notComment

Re: ***The Official Chelsea FC Thread***
Thinking we will see something like:
Courtois
Bane Cahill Luiz Dave
Kante
Willian Matic Oscar Hazard
Costa
I'd love to see more of Alonso, but I'm not sure this is the game to do it. Bane always gets up for Arsenal games and he actually does very well vs Alexis.
You could swap out Cesc for Oscar or Matic as well.
Also, Willian has fallen off a cliff and doesn't deserve to start over Moses right now, but I still expect him to start.Comment

Re: ***The Official Chelsea FC Thread***
I know William is a fan favorite but he is just not cutting it right now. Really makes me wonder what kind of player Cuadrado could've been if things worked out. His ceiling is so much higher.SEATTLE SEAHAWKS
