straight into the Chelsea black hole. Good luck to the lad. Hopefu lly this move isn't a chance for a chance to brag from whomever advised him.

Considering we're theee club for development or youth and a history of home grown players actually making it to the first team and more so in goal, its an odd decision.
His parents need a good slap, at 14 years old he was already at one of the best clubs for him to progress with , as a keeper you'll be really lucky to be starting for a premier league club before your in your early 20s if not later, so why go to a premier league club only to spend the early part of your career at l1 and l2 clubs on loan. Patterson is a prime example of been given the chance, has already been linked with PL clubs and could even be there with us next season, when was the last time any of the top club brought a keeper through to play first team football, they are renowned for buying the top keepers available at the time, his parents could probably be responsible for helping him make the worst decision of his career and he's only 14 ffs

Life changing money for his family, I suppose. As has been said it’s probably the wrong decision on a football and financial level in the long term. Too much too young for the young lad as well probably. Motivation must be difficult when you feel you’ve already made it.

There’s always exceptions to the rule and I hope Bell proves to be one.

My secret source suggests we've more than tripled our money on Lihadji.
Blimey. Well played the club if so.
