.......scores on his debut against a strong Chelsea team! http://www.seagulls.co.uk/page/Latest/0,,10433~2871628,00.html?
That was a practically full strength Chelsea side, good to see Crofts has settled back into the Brighton set up quickly
He's not a bad player but his first touch and passing accuracy let him down last season I feel. To be fair, a non league player can score against a prem team, it's doing it regularly that's the difference. I'm sure he will do well for them next season, they seem to be building a very good side.
Friendlys are all about building match fitness. Anyone watching Brazil in the Olympics will know what a talent Oscar is, and I will make a prediction about this Chelsea side for 2 years time: Mata, E.Hazard, Oscar, T.Hazard This will be the midfield 4 that we will all be raving about.
To be fair, I think Chelsea are dark horses for the title this season. Their squad is really shaping up and if Torres can recapture his Liverpool form, or even carry on his form from the back end of last season.
