Lucky he ain’t the manager. Zouma ain’t gonna be a starter for them.

He’s better than Luiz and Christensen by far so yes he will be

Good news for us? With Rudiger back very soon, starting eleven is not guaranteed for Kurt Zouma

Rudiger and Luiz partnership ready to go.

Has he started regularly during pre-season?

 

[Nymzee]

Zouma isn’t coming here and frankly I don’t even rate him all that highly. Just looks quality because of how scary Keane and Mina can look.

Time we moved on and stopped waiting around like some desperate teen

People on here just can't let it go can they.
Chelsea can't buy anyone, his not coming, move on.

His going to be in the starting 11 for Chelsea's first game of the season for goodness sake.

Christ he has changed his tune. He bought a few expensive defenders for utd and then still wanted more...

Obviously trying to line up a job with a team who has a frugal chairman but already have a half decent team.

To be fair he didn’t say that Zouma would be a starter.Mourinho always likes two players for every position in effect he is saying in their squad they need 4CD. Christensen, Rudiger, Luiz and Zouma at no time did I get the impression he was saying who would start.

Chelsea have just had 22-23 shots against them by Salzburg in 90 mins.

Zouma looked really exposed. I wouldn't be surprised if Lampard sells him.

If I was Zouma I'd try force a move to Everton, I can see Cheslea really falling apart this season.They look shambolic defensively.

I too watched the game . Salzburg are no mugs their energy and fitness shone through.Their high press would cause a lot of PL teams problems and the fact that they in effect played a new team in each half enabled them to maintain that high energy press deeper into the game than would normally be the case.

Most of RB shots were wayward I think Chelsea had far more on target . Missing Kante shielding was a huge miss for them. None of the the CD who featured for Chelsea are better than Rudiger. Zouma for me looked like a rabbit caught in headlights his positional awareness was terrible and his inability to play quick and accurate short passes was there for all to see. On numerous occasions Luiz and Azpilicueta were having to have words with Zouma.

Irrespective until they replaced three of the back four they were 4-1 up.Then Zappacosta and Zouma get caught out penalty 4-2 they then went 5-2 up then a long ball exposed Tomori and Zouma who was drawn to the ball rather than taking up a covering position.

Christensen came on but significantly didn’t go into the back 4. Zouma stayed on. I thought that was a statement that Zouma either needs to spend as much time as possible working on his game or Lampard is still far from convinced if that’s the case even at this late stage I think there is a possibility if they get a decent offer they will let him go.

Personally I don’t read too much into PSF there are far too many changes of personnel as a game proceeds, players for whatever reason don’t go full tilt , referees don’t hand out cards in a same way. Indeed If I did get too concerned I think the PSF results delivered by Everton would be setting all sorts of alarm bells ringing.

No, he's came off the bench each time

He was garbage against a bunch of toddlers. Says it all really.

Keane and Mina didn't look bad in any of the games they played together last year. Most of our defensive nightmares came when it was Zouma/Keane or Zouma/Mina.

But... Zouma is a good player and has pace which neither Keane nor Mina possess. We need a player who can match that pace to come in.
