Message: [QUOTE="ImperialOrange, post: 3033935, member: 362"] Yes it's great option to have but given their financial situation they could do well to strengthen elsewhere and have a Llorente type off the bench when needed. They won't move him due to his being the current England "chosen one" but just seems square peg Vs round hole for what they have around him. Will be curious to see how they try and rebuild their formation with Erikson leaving but I inherently feared them more without him. That said, teams without solid aerial CB play and/or LB and RB pressing way up the pitch will certainly continue to struggle with him. If they're looking to close the gap and take more points of top clubs though they'll need to counter on the wings to try and catch Virg, Laporte, Rudiger, etc out of position since he can't run by our out jump them. Curious what Chelsea look like sans Hazard as well to try and break lines [/QUOTE]
