Calum Chambers: 2019/20 Performances

[Penn_]

Who would you drop for him, if at all?

Chambers and Sokratis looked somewhat decent against Newcastle. But Chambers and Luiz should at least give you two centre that can play with the ball.

 

[Jaroyouth76]

Feel sorry for chambers as he was solid in pre season and played well against newcastle
I think he is good enough to play him in midfield instead of xhaka least he can get up and down the pitch and can pass better than him too.

 

[Garrincha]

I would play him RB vs Frankfurt, Villa & Forest.

Give AMN a break mentally & even a few minutes in midfield. Hopefully we dont need his movement / pace until United.

 

[mavelous]

Not a single shout? He was very decent on the ball, no wonder he's so comfortable in rb and dm equally.

Physically also held his own.
Solid

 

[Impact]

Put a chance on a plate for Auba tonight too.

Tonight was the type of performance you want from a defensive squad player. Tidy, composed and disciplined.

 

[Sniper Mik]

Body shape was all wrong in the 1st half, letting Kostic come inside but adjusted well later.

 

[Mrs Bergkamp]

Did well. Quick mind and quick feet. Solid,hard working and no mistakes. Considering he was dropped, this was a good performance.

This was not intended as a euphemism

 

[krackpot]

Should be treated as a first team member

Last night's performance left me confused as to why he is being left out of our starting 11.

I saw this and I was actually watching him very closely afterwards. He played a great game but it wasn't perfect. Considering it is a rare appearance from him I am willing to let the couple little errors go. Great attitude here...

That and plus the fact that his worth performances always came from the RB position. He has better defensive control when playing CB, RB position requires different positioning from a defender which he doesn't do very well.

After the preseason I thought he will be a regular and paired with Holding later, but Emery likes theatrics more than a guy who is quiet and does his job, that's why Mustafi, Sokratis and Xhaka will always be ahead of him.

 

[Mitch]

Chambers has much better defensive positional awareness than Bellerin at RB or Luiz at CB.

Bellerin has the pace to recover and thus masks it at times, but you're right.

 

[IchirotoV2]

Thought he was horrific in the first half tbh. Either leaving a lot of space for the opposition or chasing shadows. He looked incredibly slow to me. Maybe I missed something according to the comments on here.

Love to see him and holding in the middle of the defence next week against forest

Agree the second half was when he settled. There were a couple of nervy moments in the first half and he was responsible for one or two of those. Considering the lack of action he has been given I was really impressed that he grew into the game as opposed to crumbling.

Yeah that's fair, it was a good sign that I didn't take notice of him in the second except for that pass to Auba

 

[say yes]

About time my boy got some love.

 

[Hleb's Sirush]

I said in pre-season I would rather play Chambers ar RB than AMN. Chambers will get roosted whenever he comes up against a speedy or tricky winger but still that will be an improvement on AMN who sets up oppositions with a few key passes a game, isn't very good at defending and can't even control a simple ball half the times. Hope he keeps his spot till Bellerin is back.

 

[Pepes blue pill]

Really want this dude to make it here, needs some lookers in the side as well, not been right since giroud left
