David_Ornstein: Some at the club aren't convinced that Rice has necessarily addressed the technical deficiencies that resulted in him being released by CFC when he was 14. Currently Rice to Chelsea is "improbable".

I've always been against this move 👍.

Agree0 Disagree0

I am strongly in support of Chelsea signing another CDM but my preference has always been Denis Zakaria or Sandro Tonali; but since Sandro Tonali has joined AC Milan, I would say Denis Zakaria or Boubacary Soumare.

It's what we've been saying all along. He has the potential to be a world class CB but currently he's just a good DM. Everything he does well is based on the fact he's a natural CB, everything he can't do is because he isn't a natural DM.

Its a move we make next year when Kante is a year older, depending on the success of Rice's and our seasons.

If we're desperate for a DM we should look to someone more established in the position, Partey from Madrid or Zakaria would be my choice. If we want experience then someone like Delaney from Dortmund would be a good alternative.

I was quite impressed with James when he took that position briefly against Brighton.

As I said in a previous post, it seemed to free up Kante.

I would have to agree with you Obinna. 👍.

I have said all along build the team around Kante. Jorginho is a class act as well. so is Kovacic, so is young Billy. We don't need or want a West Ham Donkey.

@G8: Rice is our own product, he was at the academy until 14. Can't understand why you call him donkey. Just seems to be pure hate on him, which is a shame really.

My guess is he was let go from our club for a reason but IMO he is a good player who may play better in a better team.

I’m not sure how anyone can judge him as a CH and I’m sure the club, if we sign him at some stage, will be signing him as a DM.

The price doesn’t bother me but I’m not 100% convinced we need him. As I’ve said Ampadu, although now on loan could well end up being a better player and I thought Jame s did well when asked to slot into that position against Brighton.

My guess is we have not made contact with the happy hammers and I’m not sure we will this season. I think it’s all media rubbish.

If he does join, he will immediately become the best DM in the Premiership IMO.
