Antonio Rudiger

Well, he came on yesterday and Dave moved to the left. Not sure if that is a good solution...

 
Rudiger lost his man yesterday which resulted in a goal. Not good enough, he needs to sort that out.

 
Yeah, pretty horrible start by him to be honest. Totally lost Kolasinac who was his man.

 
He's a long term investment so not to concerned. The back three will be as you were for the most part this campaign.

 
Yeah the backline had complete controll and Kolasinac would have been offside if Morata wasnt lingering to long back there. To call it a "horrible start" is just lughable

 
Even the pundits kept saying it was Cesc but ya, Morata darted into the box too early.

 
I thought his presence was excellent he stands out on th woot he and has the physical attributes, very happy with him, my only issue I see I think he isn't as tactically aware as he could be, maybe luiz isn't the ideal partner for him. I was wincing when I saw him get smashed in his knee after his acl problems hopefully it was his good knee

 
Pro: likes a pop from outside the box. Con: did he hit the target once?

 
Did alright, wouldn't say his passing range is as good as was made out though. Seems to look awkward on the ball like Zouma.

 
He still has a lot to offer us. I like his aggression, I think he had a good game, maybe our best defender in that game. He was looked motivated and could see him pushing us forward, with more games and more experience in that league he is going to be much better, I'd say he is the closest defender to reach Boateng's level, maybe better. I'm happy with him.

 
Must be dozens of journalists out to get us at the moment, none of them have an ounce of respect for us. Bloody yahoo and metro reporting that the squad don't rate rudiger, what a load of rubbish. 

 
The Daily Fail's considered take on Rudi's debut.

But Timothy Fosu-Mensah and Antonio Rudiger both conceded three goals

First up they seem to think he's a goalkeeper.

Antonio Rudiger - 5.5

Rudiger may have seen a home fixture to Burnley on the opening day as the perfect assignment to ease himself into the Premier League but he was in for a rude awakening.

Granted he was not helped by the dismissal of his captain Gary Cahill, but the presence of Sam Vokes unsettled him, and there's plenty more revered strikers in the English top flight that await. Booked.

Riveting analysis from the folks who speak with assurance about us being a 'crisis club' at the moment. What guff.
