    He'll be **** at centre half. Although better than Hector and Papy.

    Also better than Smalling and Jones. He didn't want you lot though. Seen a lot of Hector and Papy have you?

    No. The reason seems to have been that he wasn't keen on the style of football played at SB. <whistle>

    Then you'd better get him back there to shore up your keystone cops defence!

    I haven't seen much of Hector as I very rarely watch Reading. I never watch the other clubs he's played for.

    Bracknell Town
    Didcot Town
    Havant & Waterlooville
    Oxford City
    Horsham
    Dundalk
    Barnet
    Shrewsbury Town
    Aldershot Town
    Cheltenham Town
    Aberdeen

    I doubt I'll see much of Papy. He certainly won't be playing in any of your CL games. I think he's there to make Terry feel better!

    I know it's wumming but it's very short sighted to suggest that somebody is a poor footballer due to the previous clubs they've played for. Everybody has to start somewhere.

    Seamus Coleman for example was playing for some Irish side I've barely heard of. He's not bad is he? Jamie Vardy is another who's made the step up from non league.

    Just a couple of examples. I'm sure there are more.

    I'm sure he's quality. Reading just kept sending him out on loan as he likes to travel.

    Do you honestly think he will ever play a PL game for Chelsea?

    You think he's there to make Terry feel better? Ah right. Ok then I'll leave it there as you obviously have inside knowledge of these matters, even though you know nothing about them. <doh>

    Do you think he's there to replace Terry?

    Quite honestly I have no idea. Only Jose knows that for sure and until I see the guy play, I'll reserve judgement.:emoticon-0148-yes:

    You think Jose scouted him? No chance!

    I find it hard to believe that a manager signs a player without seeing him play. You don't think he saw him play? How the hell do you know that?

    Right you are, Jose's built his career on spotting young/lower division players and nurturing them into Chelsea first teamers.

    Again, I have no idea how or indeed whether he'll use him. Neither do you.

    I haven't a clue mate, I've never seen him play, sorry.

    The point I was making though was its wrong to write a player just by reading the list of clubs he has played for.
