Football is a funny old game you just never know.

I'm not piling on, nor defending. But I've always been concerned about RS command of the area from set pieces and Chelsea conceding from corners is exactly what I expect to see. It doesn't mean he won't learn but it was a big flaw IMO when with us.Chelsea fans are hilarious.
The only goal out of the 4 he’s conceded that I would say he could have done better with was the Liverpool one, he was slightly flat footed there, people saying he should have saved that Antonio shot are delusional.
So easy to blame a goalkeeper, how about the defence allowing a free header from a corner, 2 of your defenders being physically dominated by Antonio and your 115m signing hacking a player down in the box.
Unfrotaunteky these players joining Chelsea are now finding out what a truly toxic fan base is like, Caicedo hasn’t played in two months and their fans are already considering he could be a ‘waste of money’
I also feel he should have done better with Antonio's goal. But also IDC.

Wasn’t Big Rob top 4 of the aerial claims chart for a long time whilst he was first choice?
For me that was his biggest strength but obviously as he tried to claim the ball a lot he did sometimes drop the ball or flap and that is inevitably punished, Steele doesn’t come for as many but he still flaps sometimes.

Hope his bench allergy clears up before they sign his replacement.Transfer Centre LIVE! Football transfers, news, updates and rumours

Do they realise this is Chelsea, so they could add another £50m to the fee and they would still pay it?

I’d say Steele’s biggest weakness is corners whipped towards his near post.
Bound to be exploited next week. I'd hoped that Southampton's relegation would mean the back of Ward-Prowse, but I know I'll be a nervous wreck every time WHU get a corner next Sat.

Three players Chelsea should sign to REPLACE Sanchez as number one
Sanchez, 24, was demoted to third-choice at Brighton this summer after Roberto De Zerbi dropped the Spaniard in favour of Jason Steele last season, before the Seagulls added Bart Verbruggen from Anderlecht in July.However, Sanchez was signed as a back-up to Kepa, not to be Chelsea’s first-choice starting goalkeeper. Thanks to Kepa’s departure, the former Brighton man has been in between the sticks for the Blues’ opening two fixtures of the Premier League season.

Agree with this. West Ham were a threat at set plays before they signed JPW. I don't think we're the greatest side at defending them either.
Soucek to score any time might be the insurance bet to look out for.

That's not a Chelsea fan, just some berk who seems to get off on making compilation videos of other players' mistakes. Totally normal behaviour...
Thanks! Corrected for me! Damning compilation but over time I think the best keepers would have similar....
That's literally one of his strong points.

Yep. The same goes for every player – there's one on that guys page about Caicedo's shots on goal (not many goals), one about Anthony, another about VVD, etc, etc. Clearly cherry-picking to make a, slightly strange, point.

He was number one in the EPL for crosses claimed.
