Joe Cole makes some good factors on Chelsea and Marc Guehi – Speak Chelsea

Joe Cole has a whole lot of good associates nonetheless throughout the Chelsea hireachy, and he’s very a lot concerned with the membership nonetheless.

So it’s all the time fascinating when he speaks like this. Cole has mentioned that Chelsea are prioritising the defence this window, and he has co-signed a transfer for Marc Guehi, together with some very heavy reward for the England worldwide.

However he couldn’t assist making a cheeky little dig at Chelsea alongside the best way too!

“The precedence for Chelsea is in central defence,” Cole mentioned in phrases quoted by DAZN. “Benoît Badiashile is selecting up accidents and Wesley Fofana has been fantastic, however he retains on breaking down. Levi Colwill is a younger participant who’s executed nicely however he nonetheless must develop and enhance, and he’ll do.

“It’s so irritating for Chelsea as a result of they’ve bought somebody like Marc Guehi, and he’s gone on to develop into a high centre-half which I may see [at the time].

“Guehi is a correct participant and he’s in England’s beginning line up now and Chelsea are going to must fork out to get him again. It’s an space that must be sorted out at Chelsea.

“A number of the lads, like Axel Disasi, haven’t fairly settled as a lot because the membership would’ve preferred. I just like the hyperlinks with Marc Guehi nevertheless it’s simply irritating that they should go and purchase gamers that they’ve bought – Chelsea do it far too usually!

“If wants should, and it’s the correct transfer, it’s important to do it and I don’t suppose there’s a greater centre-half within the nation, exterior of Manchester Metropolis and Arsenal, he’s nearly as good as something there may be, and he’ll get higher.”

Some huge compliments from Cole, and he additionally makes a nice level about needing to signal academy gamers again!

I like Guehi, I believe he’s a brilliant stable defender, very calm, has management, and is superb on the ball and defensively. I’m not towards signing him. I simply don’t suppose he ticks ALL of the containers that we want. I need an imposing [aerially and on the ground], assertive, organising, vocal, dominant, and aggressive centre again, ideally. And I genuinely suppose that’s what we’re lacking in that space. As I mentioned earlier this week, he wouldn’t be my first alternative and perhaps not even my second or third.

However I love what Cole has mentioned right here and he isn’t precisely mistaken on Guehi both. High, TOP participant.
