I think his mixture of Technique and energy is a better fit for Sarri than any of the other guys. Really it's Kante and Jorghino plus 1. And Kovacic is a better 3rd guy than Fabregas, Barkley or the Leicester dude.
Chelsea have always been like this, just buying whoever is available late in transfer window when they realise that they need to improve their squad.Still not a major improvement to what they have got. Like the rags, they don't have a real transfer strategy.
Can`t expect many goals from them though. Very defensive midfieldKante, Jorghino and Kovacic will be some midfield.
He won't. Itll depend on how deep we go in champs league. If we go deep he will be rotated wisely for significant games. That's why talk of John stones rotating with him seems like madness, given if fit I would expect him to start important prem and champs league games in defence and given him and laporte are felt to be the preferred centre back pairing this season.I think Ferna will still start 3/4 of the games if fit.
Add Hazard & Willian then they look AWSOME.Kante, Jorghino and Kovacic will be some midfield.

I can't argue with that but I now believe John Stones will play HM in some games this year.Kovacic would have been dumb to choose us. His whole issue was being on the bench. Why go from Real's bench to ours?
He was already at a prestigious club and wanted out. So clearly prestige is secondary to game time. And he looks a starter at Chelsea. Here he was guaranteed a bench.
