“And so, great players can play for any team and if you want to take Jorginho out and get rid of him and put Frenkie de Jong in, then I think that makes Chelsea better, put it that way. In my mind I don’t get that De Jong’s a Chelsea player.
“But at the same time, you need to get better. Chelsea, Liverpool, City are always looking every single season, every transfer window, ‘how do we get better? Who do we get to make us better?’.”
Robson was sitting alongside Nicol and compared the situation to that of Thiago. The Spaniard joined Liverpool from Bayern Munich in 2020 and there were doubts over his suitability to the Reds.
Thiago was a different type of midfielder to what Jurgen Klopp usually targeted in the transfer market. But Robson says he has proven to be a top signing and claims De Jong could follow suit and become Chelsea’s own Thiago.
