Ben Chilwell

[Plain Speaking]

Firpo is the boy for us.

Have we been linked?

We had him checked out a few times mate. Betis also wanted zinchenko last summer and he wanted them so hopefully it would make the deal cheaper and easier. Peps brother is also his agent

Watched a few of his last few games for Leicester and he's been as average as it gets against average Prem teams.

There was a point in the second half at Wolves when he just smashed the ball into space under no pressure, nowhere near finding a Leicester teammate, three times out of five passes.

When he broke though he looked the business with the hype you expect some progression and there has not been any

Really?? He’s gone from being second choice behind Christian Fuchs to playing every week. He’s still really young Aswell.

He’s made loads of progression this season. He’s not been amazing every games, but that’s expected from young players

Is going from second choice behind Christian Fuchs to first choice an accomplishment? for me at least he has not improved, but the most important bit is there is no sparkle , `he has not been amazing every game` , he has not been amazing in any game, and the only reason we would go after him is for the home grown quota

Not really a fan of this guy think that he is just bang average tbh. I would sooner have the other Mendy from Lyon and it would confuse the f*ck out of the opposition having 2 Mendys'.

Cant see us buying another left back when we have Mendy who after 2 bad injuries for me will have run of injury free years.

We all agree that Mendy is a bit gash defending but rather good going forward. We need another who is the opposite. Chilwell is not that man.

I’ll be surprised if we do buy one when we have Mendy and 2/3 other options in that position if mendy does get an injury we coped last season fine we have coped thos season.

The two best left-backs that I've seen play against City over the past 2 years are Andrew Robertson & Faouzi Ghoulam (sic).

We'd never get one of them and we'd get ripped off for the 2nd.

Other than that, I can't think of any LB's that would interest me.
