yup same hereYes. I’d love to see us try Lindelöf at DM with Tuanzebe next to Maguire.

Agreed with this.Said this before, but I think Axel will be a monster of a DM if he is played and developed there. He has the physicality, pace, passing and reading of the game to do superbly in that position. As mentioned, he played DM for us against Palace and that was a few years ago. He would be much better now.
Has always been an over-rated player also.No he wasn't - he wasn't outstanding but he was far from terrible. Has always been an under-rated player
Blanc started as a 10 and ended up in central defense.Lahm went from full back to DM in his late twenties. Desailly went from CB to DM and back again in his mid twenties and thirties.
No, he won't be a good option and would be worse than Fred, McT, Garner (yes , a player who hasn't even started playing regularly).I still think he'd be a good option for DM. He might not have Carrick's passing range, but he's a decent passer nonetheless. Can't be worse than Fred though.
He's also really good at positioning and closing down passing lanes, something that gets consistently criticized on here on here because he's not defending on the "front foot". I'd say with how barren we look in CM department at the moment I'd definitely give me chance there.
This. Christ. Someone plays ok for a bit and wild shit sprouts out the earth.These threads again? Why the hell should someone like Lindelof who isn't even that good on the ball, suddenly play in DM?
This is accurate. Bit worried about what some posters are seeing.————Hendo——————

Elanga is in for that poster who keeps talking about him.
Did you just lose your train of thought ?Remember when Chelsea were building a winning squad when Roman first came round? They had loads of players who didn't work out. Kezman, Smertin, Mutu, Veron, zenden... They just moved them on. At our club we seem to collect them.
Strange one that.. Lindelof is an ok CB nothing more nothing less..What is the obsession on here with playing everyone out of position?
We wanted a Danny but got a Daley.Blind was a terrible DM.

Not bad, but I prefer Macguire as a target man number 9.————Hendo——————

No, what I mean is if someone doesn't fit or work out as expected we hang onto them for years beyond thier need. We just don't move people on quick enough.Did you just lose your train of thought ?
Lindelof I doubt he is suited to the role but he can transition into the role.I still think he'd be a good option for DM. He might not have Carrick's passing range, but he's a decent passer nonetheless. Can't be worse than Fred though.
He's also really good at positioning and closing down passing lanes, something that gets consistently criticized on here on here because he's not defending on the "front foot". I'd say with how barren we look in CM department at the moment I'd definitely give me chance there.
Tripping over the ball wouldnt be much better in DM than at CBI still think he'd be a good option for DM. He might not have Carrick's passing range, but he's a decent passer nonetheless. Can't be worse than Fred though.

You want to go down the Lahm route I see. Not sure Shaw has it in him tactically. I think he's perfect for the LB role thoughLindelof I doubt he is suited to the role but he can transition into the role.
I have a different player in mind, though. Luke Shaw to me looks the type to. Reminds me of a Quinton Fortune or even Zanetti.
