Ever since he's got back from the injury, he's been less commandeering of the defense and very shaky. More drop balls than ever, bad decisions, and the confidence isn't just there.
We've lost a few points from these as well. Every setpiece against us now worries me.
Anyone else noticed? What's different this time? Could it be because the back 4 has deteriorated or they're just setup badly?

No offence intended, but why is this on the Celtic board?

My bad man, I'm not sure why it keeps tagging another team other than Chelsea, it's buggy af. I may need the admin to help with why it's tagging more than 1 team

No problem. Was just curious. Wish I could answer your OP though
Should maybe have kept Cech? In saying that, I don`t know if his time at the club had run it`s course. I was under the impression, that Courtois has been like this from the start of his time at Chelsea. Is that not the case?

I think as with some things it takes the player time to recover from the shock of injury. Tebo isnt flying out, Hazard looked a little tentative. Give a few more games and he should be back.

My main problem with him is his distribution. It's really poor and that has been the case even before his injury

He's still really young, and still learning. He'll improve as the defence improves too - he can't be very confident about what he sees in front of him this season. But I agree with the OP - he has not been as commanding as we know he can be. I think that consistency will return. He certainly still has the ability.

I think he's doing fine. He's been out injured for much of the season and is now coming back nicely in my opinion.
There seems to be a bit of agenda at the moment trying to push the idea that we made a terrible mistake selling Cech and that all our problems would be solved if only we'd just kept him etc.
Personally I'm very happy with both our keepers and as long as we keep them both then it's an area that we don't need to worry about as far as I'm concerned anyway.
