15 - Andreas Christensen

This is a bit too reactionary I think. Not his biggest fan but Chelsea in general looked off, including Rudiger, Thiago Silva and others.

Just a bad half in general for them. Doesn't say much about his or their ability.

True, but we now know that Araujo is clearly better than him on 1V1

Yeah, but it's not a good tactical choice to put him 1v1 vs. Vinicius with no RWB to support him. Very few players in the world will be able to contain that. Maybe 3-4 CBs in the world max.

Either way as I've said before. I'm not fussed about these free agent signings. Christensen is signing a three year deal it sounds like. His salary is not prohibitive to selling him in 2023 if he completely stinks.

Cannot spend money in every position and we all know the priorities this summer will be a striker, RW if OD leaves and likely a LB.

Chelsea's positioning was woeful as a team. Not much in terms of individual errors from Christensen. Just bad positioning as a whole from their whole midfield and backline.

Also, he is not Araujo's profile. Araujo is a beast in terms of 1 vs 1.

Bury his career because of bad 45 mins.

Truth is you can find excuses like this for likes of Rudiger. As he had some great matches, but Christensen is a ghost basically. A player that didn't raise his game more than a certain level.

Christensen has had many good games for Chelsea and been their top CB at times.

Chelsea as a whole are in a mess right now and none of them playing all that well.

True. That was like watching dysfunctional Barca for years. Chelsea looked like a team of individuals. Bad bad performance.
