LVG loves mcnair....
when he comes back from injury, he would get 10+ games. he's a bloody good defender!

We will both be alive come May, insha Allah...

Chelsea r so much attuned to winning trophies so much that they dread the possibility of not winning cups. because they started winning major trophies when the moneyman came. All these academy boys presently in chelsea came as a result of the moneyman's decision not to spend too much again. Now it has backfired. You cannot excel in what u r not good at. The season chelsea stops buying big is the season they stop being serious contenders for trophies . Same goes for mancity...

but d youths excel well in their academy league and were they are loaned to....

You never can tell @ the bolded....
Young blood is important tho..

PietroRico:
yea sure, there has been opportunities in the past and the club may not have utilised it, but anybody wanting Solanke to come on when they need a goal and Costa is misfiring is just being funny.. . In other words, the situation is too chaotic for that risk
They will crumble under the pressure

a certain macheda was risked into a must-win game sometime ago and he ended up scoring....why not give them a chance

am mot saying the youths r bad. What I mean is that youth-grooming policy is not something u can just start and gell at. Its a matter of 'practice makes perfect'....imagine manutd wining by just a lone goal and still having the audacity to bring in a rookie defender. Van Gaal did it.......I can bet dat even Fergie can do such!

Raumdeuter de!!!

Ojuyobo will come and scatter this place again as always...

You know harry kane only got minutes after Soldado and Adebayor stop delivering for spurs.
The CFC board must have change their goals for this season. Title defence is almost impossible and top 4 finish won't be easy.
UCL is all that remain at this point and they can go all out for that trophy with their first squad.
But for domestic games,at least try some youth players when stability is achieved in the league.

Ibime:
This is the kind of decent debate we have always had on Chelsea thread, not those nonsense my dyck is bigger than yours arguments.

Take note, those that like to go to other threads and drag scum back with them to disturb us here:

Chelseafan1
Airmark
Hensben
Mourinholic

Get your facts right, I do not go to Man u thread to argue, the "scums" being dragged here are mostly from the Man u thread.

On the other hand, myself and Barca fans now have a mutual understanding, I am now a born again Christian, serving God really pays

The truth is everyone knows the answer but they are just going for the extreme scenario to just make an argument

In a starting 11 you cant tell me having 1 youth starting and another youth playing Mikel minutes would suddenly make your team go from 1st to 9th

Last season By March you were already coasting to the league what stops the coach from dropping the stable players in a game to test some youth even if he is risk averse

I gave a scenario last week in a crucial CL game Pep dropped Robben and started Coman. Of course Coman didnt play to the level a Robben would but he gained experience and in 3yrs time might be the new Robben thus saving us the spending 100M or more depending on the new rate on an elite WInger

Would that single Coman make our 11 players go from 100% performance to 50%. He was played on the wings in a not risky role

Same thing was done to Alaba as a 17yr old starting a crucial CL game in Florence

I said 9 of your starters were bought less than 4 yrs ago yet some posters are already like Costa is a fraud, Fabregas is not deserving, Baba isnt up to grade. These are players bought a yr ago

Even in Carling cup games the starters play

May God preserve the life and pocket of Roman

McNair is your most technically accomplished defender.

Smalling is your best pure defender. . . . his sense of danger is one of the best I've ever seen. . . but his passing is still almost at semi-pro level.

Nihilist:


If you don't understand the argument, please stay on the sideline and don't get involved.

Ok. Ok. No need to start getting orgasms coz of a simple post.

It was already agreed by all parties since last week that are at the top or close to the top at offering chances to youth.

kindly list the number of academy products in Chelsea's first team.

The question I asked was "how many academy products are currently in manyoo's first team?". The answer is 1.

U couldn't be more wrong. A first team consists of the "Starting 11 and its substitutes".

And against West Brom, we had Lingard in the starting 11. And we had Bosthwick and Perreira(thought he was still injured) in the subs.

That makes it three academy players in our first team as at 3 days ago.

There is an option of buying Sergio Ramos, an accomplished defender or giving Smalling the chance. Buy Sergio ramos you get 90% for say 2 seasons and he drops from there, Smalling rots on the bench and losses it completely or goes to another team develop and he is worth 100M

Or stick with Smalling he gives 75% this season and gradually increase to 90 possibly 95% for the next 10yrs and you dont have to worry about buying an elite defender again

You've noticed how your fellow fans have been sensible and actually paying attention to discussion.
Do that or bounce lad...

Surely it is patently obvious that we are discussing the first 11 here. The context of the conversation should have given that away by now.

kindly list the number of academy products in Chelsea's first team.

If I was to indulge in the same kind of pendantry you've been displaying here, I'll be mentioning the likes of Amelia, Ola Aina, RLC, Bertrand Traore etc who've all been on the bench in recent weeks.

Like I said earlier, if you dont understand the convo, don't but in.

If that was Chelsea that had their 2 top striker stop delivering like Costa and Falcao are currently

Spurs looked to their youth Kane, Chelsea continued through thick and thin with Costa and Falcao hoping they can get to the transfer window and have the opportunity to splash another 60M plus on 28yr olds Cavani or Higuain.

You see the difference?

But smalling is not an academy player either

Na Airmark and Mourinholic dey bring Manure wahala come here.

Na you and Hensben dey bring Barca wahala come here.

Raumdeuter dey bring Bayern wahala without invitation because his thread doesn't have members. He is a parasite - he feeds on other threads to sustain his thread. He go come troll you here, so you can go back to Bayern thread and increase the activity there.

For the rest of us, Chelsea thread is enough for us.

Ibime:

True, but mcnair(a 20 year old) cannot and will not man our defence ahead of jones, Rojo and blind, smalling and jones are our best pairing at CB, hurts me to admit it but it's the truth, McNair will only come in when two of those players are injured and we are short of options and of course cup games

Smalling is your best pure defender. . . . his sense of danger is one of the best I've ever seen. . . but his passing is still almost at semi-pro level.

He's arguably the best defender in the league, with a little more work I believe he's going to grow into being one of the best in the world

He is a young player bought for cheap

Actually, na true, Hensben has been quiet lately until he came back alive on the Barca thread, Neymar's second goal on Sunday made me change my mind patapata about him, I mean, Messi no dey around, d guy still dey perform well.

The fact say uncle Hazard never score even pk no even fit make person defend am again.

As we dey 16th, if person no get sense, kon still dey go other thread go make mouth, person no get shame be dt o.

It's embarrassing bro.

dopeJemi:

some of them will def'ly sit on the bench like herrera, carrick, depay, rojo, jones, etc have all done.

LVG is a lover of youth. he promoted david alaba from bayern munich II to the senior team out of nowhere.

out of everyone in that defence, smalling/mcnair have the best chance under LVG. jones & rojo are 2nd class citizens unless mcnair stops performing!
