Is that actually a record for a premier league club? Discounting youth players to have seven senior centre backs on the books at one time. I find it incredible.
Maguire and Lindelof is first choice clearly but what sort of pecking order is behind that? I'm assuming Smalling is first to come in for injury/suspension but how come you didn't send Axel out on loan again as I can't see him getting much chance apart from europa league. Then you have Jones, Bailly and Rojo.
Bailly injured so that's easy to handle and you may see him appear again over xmas. Not really sure what you do with the other two although I guess with euro window still open maybe a foreign club will bid for Rojo, amazed you didn't just loan him out to Everton to at least get him in the shop window a bit more.
Most interesting is bar Bailly they are all actually fit atm so six are available for Chelsea game. Thought you might play 3 at the back but seems OGS been sticking with back 4 in pre season, I do think that will help Maguire be more effective.
