Julien Laurens

Has been for a long time now, even before Strasbourg brought him.

Even when he was at Lyon, he was already...

kind of pinpointed as one of the you know the backs in that kind of generation chose Senegal instead of France and won AFCON where he played in the final because Koulibaly and some of the semi-final after the Koulibaly injury and did really well he's got a lot of ambition he's a very very driven kid he's tall he's very strong he's decent on the ball he was great with Rossini at Strasbourg

last season and a bit of this season too.

So they know each other really, really well.

I think there will be a time for him to adapt to the Premier League, obviously.

Right now, he's not better than Chalobah and Fofana in this kind of environment.

Obviously, it's not comparable.

But I think at time, or with time,

He can become a really, really good centre-back.

No, and that's one of the challenges for Liam Rossignol, who I think has done really well since surviving.

And I know some people don't like the glasses.

Some people are mocking him for that touch he missed on Tuesday in the game.

which I think is a bit harsh too.

But I think he's, one, very smart, two, very good as a coach, three, probably the right guy to coach and develop young players, there's no doubt.

Is this enough for Chelsea Football Club right now?

If you're a fan, not if you're the club, if you're the club, clearly he's enough.

Yes, he's 5-7 or something, yeah.

They had some good moments.

The second half against West Ham is very good, for example.
