Rather see Tomori in the squad everyday of the week. At least with Tomori you know you're working towards an end goal. With Rudiger what he is now is what he'll always be.

 
I think Rudi will get the highest fee of all our defenders and that's the reason he will leave so we can reinvest the money in Rice.

If his departure results in Christensen getting more minutes with Chelsea shirt then this is a dumb a move.

I can't believe we are selling Rudi after one bad season and we are not even using the excuse of his nasty injury while players like Christensen have been dogsh*t for 3 consecutive seasons without being injured or anything stopping their 'development'. 

I can't think of that as anything but Frank's personal preference. For some reason he's fallen in love with Christensen I am yet to find why.

I think it is more Rudi wants to play regularly and does not see that happening at Chelsea and at 27 he is not prepared to wait and see.

I don't see Christensen playing much as see Zouma, Silva and Tomori as our preferred options.

 
If this is his reaction after being left out for just a couple of games, then I think we can safely say he is the "wrong stuff" and it is better to help him find an opportunity elsewhere.

Let's hope we can find someone to take him !

 
I think it's the right time to offload him, he's not getting better and probably the 4th choice if we are honest about it. Thanks for being the transfer agent to bring the other 2 Germans in, but if we can get our money back on him, for all means do it now.

Well to be fair, he could have been told he is currently 4th choice (all speculation) so wants to maximize his playing time... as with anything like this we dont know whats gone on behind the scenes 

 
I wanted to keep Rudiger he had his use in bringing in Werner and Havertz and acted as an agent... Now that they're here, he can definitely leave. I once considered him our best CB but he has to go, just poor and not good enough for us.

Knowing our club though, he'll probably just be on another loan somewhere, probably Vitesse

 
PSG sniffing around apparently. 

Want a loan with an option to buy and Chelsea have allegedly said they're only interested in a permanent deal.

Send him to WH as Moise is looking for defenders to make the team better and throw in Barkley while your at it + 10mill and take Rice back in return.

 
Mega rich PSG want to loan him. If he is to go on loan dont let it be there. Just laugh in their faces.

Why Barkley? Why get rid of a proven squad player in a season we're playing midweek and weekend turnover almost every week?

Still being linked to Tottenham, thing is if he goes and looks good under Jose it isn’t going to make frank look very clever is it

Don't worry, Rudiger will never look good, this isnt VVD from Southampton to Liverpool.

Silva for Rudiger and Mendy for Kepa could be the key to our whole season, just have to be patient for now and wait for Chilwell to join them, and i reckon we'll be ok.

Jose doesn't chase trash defenders. He's quite astute in that area.  

From a quality perspective there is no way he ranks below Christensen, who can rarely win a header against a decent forward. Can only think that we are saying he has the most resale value in the market so we are happy to sell.

Not necessarily, it might be Rudiger needs to be playing regularly to get his confidence, that has not happened under Frank.

I think he plays better with a more experienced CB, I thought he was good playing alongside Cahill or Luiz.

If we do well this season Rudiger at Spurs won't bother us yet if Spurs turn the tables and Rudiger is seen to be part of that winning combination Frank's position would come under scrutiny.
