DJBOB Posted February 12, 2023 Share Posted February 12, 2023 Been pretty terrible every time he’s had to play. For a ball playing CB, he’s bad at his distribution when pressed as well. Add it to the summer exodus list. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demitri_C Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 Found pretty interesting that emery has publicly criticised some of chambers defending yesterday. I think its safe to say he will be sold in the summer or loaned out. Would probably do well at a Southampton or Bournemouth type of side but definitely not good enough for where we want to go 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fun Factory Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 A bit like Digne in that he has regressed since he has been with us. Not sure what his next move would be after us. His early career promise has gone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Originally, I thought that he was part at fault for the 2nd goal and maybe should have left the ball for Emi, but having watched the replay, I think that he did the right thing. If he had left the ball, it might have bounced right over him to Haaland instead. Coming off the ground like that, the ball was unpredictable. I think that he did well to shepherd it away from danger momentarily. Blame Young for losing Gundogan at the post. Sometimes it's just a great ball—and that ball by De Bruyne was a thing of beauty unfortunately. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How the hell we supposed to compete when we have to count on players like Chambers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He certainly didn't fool me by feigning injury after knowing he was culpable for their second goal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodders0223 Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 Won't be here in 6 months so it's futile FWIW he's barely kicked a competitive ball in a year and came up against the mostly physical gifted striker of all time possibly. He's going to look like a muppet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chambers should drop down a division and play regular football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lexicon Posted February 13, 2023 Share Posted February 13, 2023 He's 4th choice CB for a reason - don't necessarily need to get rid of him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we want to be succesful- as in having good domestic cup runs, and playing in European competition we would need better than Chambers as back up.

I can barely recall him looking good at Arsenal at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last season most people felt he was underrated and underappreciated ( Myself included ) He had some VERY good performances for us whenever he was called upon, however this season, he's been absolute shite. Not sure if it's just his level, or being a bit part player gives him no time to catch any form. Either way, we need much better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
