Marc Cucurella

that is not saying much. I happen think raum and sosa are better defensively and offensively than cucurella. only thing cucurella is better is passing

Raum is a Leipzig player.

Yep, some of his best games were on the left side of a back 3

Not for a Champions League side

He played there many times for Brighton. In 5 (like Chelsea play) he is perfect as a lcb. Wouldn’t be able to in a 4.


Watched about 10 Brighton games live last season as well as many on tv and that is absolutely not true. His main attributes are his tenacity and defensive ability,

i watched brighton game as well. thought he was week and easily pushed away. could not defend in the air. only thing caught my attention was his passing

Evidently he’s been very good in both positions Chelsea need him in.

Are you also amazed that the vast majority who post in the player thread are not professional players?

What about those who post on the politics thread not being politicians?

Or those in the match day thread not being professional coaches?

At the end of the day this is a fans forum where people will share their opinions. Surely, the whole concept of a forum is to do just that.

made me chuckle especially the match day thread that kinda blew your reasoning out the water

Yeah, City really screwed the pooch here

Still think the Chelsea link is meant to smoke us out. They lost out on so many CBs which they actually need at this price point I can’t see why they’d suddenly pay for a fullback. Yes he played some CB for Brighton but I don’t think he sees himself as a Cb full time

Although Cucurella is a good player we are not that desperate to meet Brighton valuation

Fair play to Chelsea. Great fit for them will play as lcb and a wing back like he does at Brighton. Pleased cucurella gets his move but absolutely gutted from our perspective.

Hugely fucked this up. Bloom comes out of this well we look a bit daft imo

 

[waspish]

If it's true they'll sell him to chelsea for 40mil max

That was our last bid we ain’t going any higher!
