Yeah. I share that assessment. He's not that special. Was pretty average under Sarri and Lampard, I remember Chelsea fans actually wanting to get rid of him at that time. He's certainly not worth 9M per year, which is what he's reportedly asking for, he's just not.
If he would be willing to come on Christensen's wages, then maybe we take the punt, but you can already see he thinks very highly of himself (and honestly he has every right, considering he has been one of the league's best CB for almost 2 years now, but it's very much in a system he clearly feels very comfortable in) and he's also at the perfect age where he can try and milk one last big contract from whoever is ready to pay him the money he wants.
Too many doubts for me though. Don't get me wrong. Yes, he could continue his great form and be worth it for the next 3 years, but he could just as easily turn back into pre-3 atb Chelsea shit if he joins a club playing 2 atb, and he's just not worth the risk in my eyes for the money he wants, especially not for us and not now, when we have to get it right, if we want to return to really challenging for the CL as fast as we want (1-2 years).

Good. It looks like we will have 8 CBs next season (if no one leaves), we don't need 4 RBs also.

In a way everybody is a system player. Busquets looks good in Xavis system and yet he was God awful under other managers in their system. I like Rudiger but I don't want him at any cost. Lisandro Martinez would be interesting. I think he would be a good fit.
Another short CB, how i miss the set piece defensive issues
He can take his amazement and shove it up his butt

Dembele....pedri...ferran

I have a feeling we will get Haaland. And we already signed AC, Kessie and Mazraoui. That's our summer I think. Dembele must stay at all cost.
Ferran-Haaland-Dembele
Pedri-Frankie
Busquets
Alba-Araujo-Pique-Mazraoui
Ter Stegen
This is a cl winning team. Left side used to combinations, with LW cutting inside and LB overlapping. Right side with the inverted fullback so Dembele will get many 1v1 situations.
Fati instead of Ferran if he can stay fit. Aubamayang and Gavi subs.
There is a very good Busquets replacement in Aurelien Tchouameni which I hoped we would sign instead of Kessie but he is too expensive and probably off to Madrid. He is the new Casemiro/Fabinho. If he is still at Monaco next summer we should go for him

Agree renewing those three are important. I think they will all stay including Dembele though.
