We can agree to disagree then.


If he were a better DM than he is a CB, then that is where he would be playing. Now, if we got a CB or 2 to replace DL in the defense then sure we could experiment with him more in the midfield, but right now he is our best CB and his midfield experiment had mixed results.

Probably not. Chelsea desperately needed him to partner with Cahill last season since Terry missed a considerable amount of time. He also probably isn't a better DM than CB (at this point in his career) due to the fact that he really hasn't played there much. He will never have the quality of Terry, which is the standard that has been set at Chelsea. Cahill-Luiz just isn't a good enough CB pairing for Chelsea.

He's still a bundle of unharnessed potential at this point, which is disappointing because his development has theoretically ended.

Well you did say that.

Anyway, I don't care to argue much more. I don't rate Cahill, but I do think Ivanovic is a better CB than Luiz.
