Which of Chelsea's Seven Centre-Back are going to be available? And, should we get them?

FFC In Oz

We can't loan Sarr - as transfer rules stipulate that a team cannot loan a player they have bought to another team in the same nation in the same window.

Silva, Rudiger & Christensen won't be available (in my opinion).

I would go for Zouma first, Tomori as a close 2nd option.

We were linked with Ethan Ampadu earlier in the window.

I am not familiar with any of them so would go for the strongest, tallest and ugliest. We need a real rock at the centre of our defence.

Toss up between Rudiger and Zouma then, depending on who you think is more handsome.

Think it would be much easier to get Zouma....I think Chelsea have lost faith in him.

He played 28 times for them last season, so not all faith.

While we are looking at Chelsea's CBs, perhaps we should take a look at Zappacosta for the RB position.

He is not needed at Chelsea and won't need time to adjust to the Premier League and the English Football.

Fiorentina is supposedly interested in getting him on loan, but surely we could a loan with an option to buy deal similar to the one for Lemina.

We Are Premier League

Think they will keep

Zouma, Rudinger, Silva, Christiansen as CB - Ampadu has said he preferred to stay instead of going on loan so i woudl make him nr 5 with Azpili as another option when they go for a back 3.

With the risk of the virus taking a few players out; i think all the big clubs will load up on large squads (subject to having enough  senior squad players under 21)
