Chelsea fan Rory Jennings has become a very controversial figure online because of his takes on the team – so it’s interesting to see him give his thoughts after a strong start to the season.
He contrasted the “lavish amounts of talent” in attack with the defence, which doesn’t have nearly the same quality. He’s uncertain on Benoit Badiashile, Axel Disasi and Robert Sanchez for starters – and we’d have to agree. If we want to go to the next level, we need the consistency only a rock solid back line can bring.
Levi Colwill looks a fantastic young player and is coming on leaps and bounds, but he’s not the ice cold stopper who intimidates the other team with his presence – not yet anyway.
Then there’s Marc Cucurella and Malo Gusto out wide – both great at some things but not so great at others, and certainly not the most consistent players around.
