[Sepak]

What's going to happen to Courtois this season?

 

[Mandieta6]

We're going to keep him. The question is what's gonna happen with Cech.

 

[ShiftyPowers]

Atletico should sign him

 

[Mus]

Cechs injured too

 

[MaSsiVe]

Cech joining Atlético and having a monster season there would actually be hilarious, but that's not happening given their huge investment in Oblak.

 

[kp41]

you hate your club name?

 

[Filipower]

Atlético London?

 

[kp41]

good one ...

 

[Sir Didier Drogba]

Is he coming HOME?

 

[Filipower]

As player-coach, reports say.

 

[yoyo913]

You guys should base your formation and strategy around Cesc.

 

[Back Door Skip]

And have Courtois play sweeper.

 

[yoyo913]

What's your point?

 

[Back Door Skip]

My point is I doubt they can coexist considering that Courtois is already World Class. Either they plan to move one of them (Cech) or shock everyone by playing them together.

 

[yoyo913]

Ah, I get it now. But the point was a bit of a stretch, no?

 

[Back Door Skip]

That was the point.

 

[yoyo913]

I mean it was hard to get.

 

[yoyo913]

I was assuming Courtois would be GK and the sweeper comment threw me off.

 

[Mandieta6]

It's dawned on me now that soon Chelsea will not have any true leaders in the locker room. Before we had Lamps, Drogba, David Luiz, even Cole and Essien who were good, experienced leaders but now we only have Terry, Cech and Ivanovic. Two of those will likely leave soon. With DL gone, my pick for future captain is up in the air. Ivanovic will probably get it but beyond him there isn't anyone who jumps out as being a born leader. Cahill, Azpi and Schurrle are very hard workers and Schurrle has immediately become a popular member of the squad but none of them really inspire me like Terry or Drogba or DL did.
