According to WhoScored he's been statistically the best right back across the season.

 

But you know stats and that :mystery:

I still think Sanga is the tits like. Debuchy's only been this good for five games, but I suppose strictly speaking he's been the best RB in the league for those 5 matches.

 

Actually, what the fuck am I talking about. Zabaleta ffs. Zabaleta is the best RB in the league like. Absolutely no doubt about it.

Zabaleta has been poor this season IMO, at least by his standards of last season. To me if i had to pick the top 3 RBs of this season i'd pick Clyne, Sagna and Debuchy in no particular order.

 

As for Debuchy he's been great since the Hull debacle, credit to him for coming back like he has.

I'd argue that Smith's run up front, typically alongside Owen in a 4-4-2, during the second half of 07/08 was the most excruciating experience of being forced to watch a certain player every week.

 

I remember Derby at home. The ball came to him and he twisted, turned, fumbled on the ball for ages before Viduka said 'fuck it' and stuck the ball in the back of the net himself. Embarrassing.

Be interesting to see how he does with no Cabaye at the weekend, think it was clear he was not as good when Yo wasn't playing.

 

He wasn't good when Yo wasn't playing b/c he was still on some awful form for us at the beginning of the season. He'll be fine on Saturday imo.

Ivanovic has to be considered too

i think Ivanovic is rubbish, tbh. For Chelsea, he seems to regularly makes mistakes at the back mostly of lack of concentration. Going forward he sees an incredible amount of the ball and produces nothing other than poor crosses into the first man, not even continuing he flow of the attack. I don't know why Azpilicueta isn't played more.

 

Debuchy is the third best in the league if he keeps his form up. Coleman has been better for a longer period of time at this point.

I hope it was just that, no doubting of late he has been amazing, his aerial ability is outstanding for his height.

He doesn't have much going forward, but still scores. Probably the best at using his body to win the ball/let it roll out than any defender in the league, let alone any fullback.

 

Still rather have Debuchy, but Ivanovic is top three imo

Ivanovic is a massive threat in both boxes but he's a clumsy and erratic defender and positionally suspect.

 

He'd really annoy me if he played for us as he's too aggressive to a fault leaving holes he shouldn't really be leaving.

 

Makes up for it by said threat in the penalty area though.

Debuchy could get us 5 goals a season in open play, could have had 3 or 4 already.

 

He shot that one right at the keeper vs. West Brom and was narrowly close on Saturday. Can't wait for him to hit master blaster at home.
