Very impressive, looks a perfect fit for our midfield on that showing and gives us yet another style of play. January return would be a great move. Apparently young "Fuzzy" Ampadu also made a big impact off the bench for Wales, scored 7/10 from Match callers and really upped the ante for the Welsh team. Surely both of these kids need to be in our first team squad, and get plenty of playing time. Dele Ali has more than 100 times the game time of Loftus Cheek and both are the same age. Ridiculous. Just read on News Now that Loftus Cheek told Chelsea he wants to leave permanently, as he feels he is wasting his time at the Bridge.
Yes this what is disturbing. RLC can be a shoe in over Cescy yet No one will see it. Hope for RLC's sake he makes Russia and least gets good transfer money.
Now Dominic Solanke also called into full England squad. We are truly nuts buying players like Michy, Drinkwater etc when these potentially International players are running around on our training pitches. Is there no one with any vision in the backroom staff?
Obviously not. These are the same ****tards who watched De Bruyne training at Cobham for two years and thought...."Nah....."
Seriously no offence boys but: RLC is not chelsea class. I won't be sad to see him leave. He won't be good enough for us and he will at most be a solid premiership player (if he gets that far). When he was playing for us i didn't see anything special. Tammy deserves a chance with us as he looks good enough I was sad when Chalobah left, when he played he looked good. He will be a big player Can't comment on Ampadu. Solanke, maybe but he hasn't done much at Pool and i doubt he's going to get much chance there (doesn't look like it at the moment). Will probably turn into another Bamford/Franco Di Santo etc etc
‘Tap-in-Tammy’ looks like one for the future but he does look fragile at the moment due to lack of bulk. He might help to keep what is now a poor looking Swansea side in the Premiership.
Disagree Bobby. RLC has a lot more in his locker than he has been able to show thus far. He has been the shining light in a very poor Palace team. (Seems a bit ironic considering the only game they won was against us without him able to play).
Yes very ironic. Although i hear about his shining light and for someone who has been playing as a winger, false 9 and number 10 position, i must question what has he actually done in that palace team, tangible or not (there aren't any results to show for it), i just disagree that he'll be a top talent but i will wait to proven wrong
No doubt it is not easy to figure who will become a great player when looking at kids. So many are world beaters at 17 and no good at all when 25. But some people can do it ,and it seems our old mate Emanelo might have been one. IF the reports are true, he bought Salah and De Bruyne to Chelsea, only to have them moved on by Jose. So even the top people have trouble. Furthermore, very few of the ones we brought through the Academy have set the world on fire elsewhere. This will go on and on.
The injuries are a problem, I think he's a very good player and given a full season playing every week I could see him getting into your team as a squad player next season but he's out all the time.
Can't really blame him to be honest. He isn't going to get games at Chelsea, and he is just wasting his time as a perennial loanee. He must be looking at clubs like Spurs, where youngsters are breaking into the first team and getting Champions League football and thinking "I am wasting my ****ing career at this stinking ****ing hell hole!".
He will have to : 1. Be able to use Google to learn about his team-mates 2. Know his "worth" < Danny Rose - DOF >
After Salah + KDB + Lukaku, you wouldn't take the risk that Pochettino directly gets the kid before he has passed thru other clubs first.
Just saying i'd be fine personally letting RLC go. If not for the club then for himself as imo hes no where near the standard of a chelsea midfielder or likely to get there so rather than sitting and rotting he should at least go and try play some football. KDB i didn't really know much about but he looked good when he played. Needless to say, he's world class right now. Salah i thought would be decent but didn't get the opportunity under Jose. He was already well tested with Basle Lukaku i think everyone could already see was a big thing. I don't think 28m was too bad for Lukaku considering we spent that on Costa. 1 thing no one could have predicted was the inflation of transfer fees this window which PSG destroyed else it would have been a no brainer to stockpile even average talent to see on at stupid prices this summer.
