I hope he can live up to the hype and he is strong enough to cope with the Premier League. We need someone as quick as Clichy but a more physical player. We were linked with Moreno before he went to Liverpool and he certainly has the physical side of the Premier League sorted. I hate to see Clichy pull out of 50/50 challenges and want someone who is an improvement on Clichy. Rodriguez sounds like the finished article and would probably be a better buy but it all depends how much it would take to bring him over here. I like the two full backs at Chelsea, both are big strong physical players who can get up and down the pitch and Ivanovic scores goals too. If we can sign a left sided Ivanovic who is in his early twenty's then this would be ideal.
I haven't seen enough of Kurzawa and I hope our scouts have made sure he has all the attributes needed to succeed in the English game.
I never see Clichy pull out of 50/50 challenges.
I'd go as far as to say he's as committed to a tackle as Zabba.
Clichy is a front foot, all or nothing defender, and has been brilliant these last few months.
