Just picked up on the web that Fraser Forster could be back next month!!! Four months early - that would be amazing if true!

Not true. He said Forster has started goalkeeper training with Dave Watson. His actual words were... I don't say he'll be back in 4 weeks, but it's going good.. Check out the Press Conference Extra on Page 6 of the Match thread for his words. He confirms that it isn't 4 weeks after further questioning.

Still, the press won't let the truth get in the way of a good story.! :)

JWP saying that Koeman hasn't forgotten the youngsters, but it is very hard for a young player to reach the standard of the present first team. Just what we've all been saying.

While absolutely true, it's also possible to mix them in at higher levels (he-who-shall-not-be-named has demonstrated that this year), and there's little doubt that Koeman is more hesitant to play kids than some of his predecessors, even in the cups.

However, Koeman is also more hesitant to rotate his squad, period, so it's not just youth.
 
I wonder how much Marshall would cost in January or at the end of the season. Still looking a top goalkeeper.

Article questioning the sense in Chelsea letting Bertrand go. Even Ryan might struggle in the Chelsea team...he's probably better in a team with class players. :)

Ever since Ryan has been with Saints he's shown enough form and class to make pundit and supporter alike wonder why they let him go. Truth is, he got fed up with being told he was needed by them and then loaned out for the season. At least, that's what he has said in Saints interviews, and now he calls St Mary's home and he feels Southampton are his club. So Chelsea are guilty of not taking enough care to keep a very good player, who felt increasingly cheesed off by their attitude. They've lost a LB who, in my opinion, is Azpilicueta's equal, at least. I think I'm right in believing he's an RB too, who Mourinho plays at LB, so that must have irked Bertrand somewhat.

Azpilicueta is certainly right footed. Last season I think he just edged Ryan as the best LB. Not this season so far.
