Chambers deserves a go on merit. Start picking the performers ffs. One thing is for sure, he's a better footballer than Bellerin, if he's not a better RB.
Everybody's going on about his pace, but he's slower now and he's not using the speed for anything productive, so what's the point anymore?
Phillip Lahm and Maldini were/are horrendously slow but they are all considered some of the best fullbacks to ever play the game, because they were intelligent and hard working.
What?
Did you ever watch either of those two at their peak?
Maldini was a physical freak, used to run the left hand side.
It was only as he aged that he got slower and begun playing as a CB.
He wasn't known for his speed, he was known for his stamina
I suggest you go watch Maldini in his prime.
A complete athlete.
I've had the pleasure of seeing them all play. Thanks anyway.

Of course you have..
Ok Maldini doesn't quite have the out and pace of Bellerin but he's quick mate. First minute or two will confirm it.He wasn't known for his speed, he was known for his stamina

Think his advancing years at CB may be clouding your judgement
Yea he had reoccurring knee injuries which definitely affected his mobility in his later years and prompted the move to CB.Fair enough mate, never remembered him as being particularly quick (definitely got slower as the years went on) perhaps slow was an overstatement (although was more referring to G Nev in that regard )
Chambers will get destroyed against any quick/agile winger with any quality.
Agreed, he still somehow managed to look incredibly average in what was the most assured defensive performance we’ve had in a while. Take whatever money we can get for him and run, hopefully £20-25mChambers is a CB for me. If Wenger’s binning anyone from the first team it should be that Albanian ginger.
