Chelsea were absolutely delighted to get rid of David Luiz to Arsenal this summer, says Tony Cascarino.
The former Blues player has quotes on Goal.com saying that Chelsea’s reaction to getting £8m for their “worst defender” was: “Wow, they’ve taken our poorest defender.”
Pretty damning.
Frank Lampard had informed the centre back that he wasn’t going to be first choice this season, and he was instantly insistent that he didn’t stick around.
He’s certainly got more minutes at the Emirates, but it might not be what he expected.
The Gunners were understandably tempted by the prospect of an experienced Brazil international and Champions League winner, but it hasn’t worked out well for them at all.
Instead of they’ve found themselves having their worst ever start to a Premier League season – no matter what they thought they were getting, they’ve ended up with a bit of a disaster on their hands.
