Damnnnnnn! You got to love the boy.

Shiiiiiiiit! See Traore.

FBS: okocha? in what way? dribbling or passing range or skills?

You sef dey wonder.

2nd half.

Schwarzer
Ivanovic Kalas Cahill Cole
Essien
Ramires MVG
Traore Lukaku Hazard

CFCfan: Lol.. Is he that bad? You know he's a key player for the Super Eagles.

He's never in a hurry. Always wanting to shuffle his feet before receiving the ball, then jogging with the ball at his feet (almost walking pace sometimes) when others are busting a lung to create options. When he eventually gets ready to make a decision, 8 times out of 10, it's the wrong one.

A player of his talent should be threatening. (See hazard). He makes himself ordinary and it's not due to lack of talent. It's just his attitude to football.

JT 4-0.

FBS: you saw that too?

Honestly I didn't think JT could pull that off.
That was good stuff.

Hehehehe. Genuine top class midfield pass from JT. Hazard overplays.
That was funny.

Demba 3-0.

FBS: hehe, I dey here o bros.
The boy dey try but I'd like him to be a little more composed. Not a finished article yet.

Moses na funny guy.lol why is he falling?

Certainly not the finished article yet. JM has confirmed he is going on loan.
In one or two years, he could be a top player.

See counter by Wallace. I like the boy already. Almost 2-0

Ramires finally makes it 2-0. Sublime pass by Hazard.

Chalobah almost made it 2.

Moses should be air-lifted from here to Everton

FBS: Chalobah. see pass. chei!

I though I was watching alone. Have you been seeing his touches and forward-play passes?

Hazard penalty. 1-0.

How did Ramires miss that?

4-3-3 today. i think this confirms what we all know - JM will switch between 4-2-1-3 and 4-3-3 where necessary.

Blackman
Wallace Cahill Terry Bertrand
Chalobah
Ramires Van Ginkel
Moses Ba Hazard



Glad that JM is playing Nathaniel in DM.

Debo is hanging on for dear life.

Chelsea have completed the transfer of Chilean winger/leftback (so I heard) Cristian Cuevas.

Damn the thread's been hijacked.

Ibime: Why are they calling Bertrand Traore a trialist?

So which club has he been at all this while.

Some folks will remember him from the African U-17 Champs 3 or 4 years ago when he was 14 after which he was reported to have signed for Chelsea.

Now they're saying he was never a Chelsea player, so which club has he been honing his skills in the last 3 years.

He's from outside of Europe and does not have a work permit. Plus he's under 18 and cannot be signed. Therefore, he's never represented Chelsea in an official game. He's only ever played in friendlies. Unfortunately, he hasn't got the number of games required with the Burkinafaso senior team to get a work permit. There is the option of applying under the exceptional talent loophole, not many applications in England have been successful. As such he is only a trialist. It's more of the club having to state this to avoid trouble.

So it's either that or we wait till he can get more national team senior games before he can represent Chelsea officially. Top player that we must never lose. In my opinion, he, with the likes of Jeremie Boga, Islam Feruz and Charlie Musonda Jr. belongs to the group of exceptional talent.

4-1

Josh McEachran sees passes that everyone doesn't.
Moses don score o.

He almost messed that up.

Schurrle and Moses. Not impressed by their tactical positioning.

Chelsea TV reporting that KDB is out to watch the second half. Perhaps not quite as bad as we thought.

El Guapo: [color=#0066ff]If Bruma's deal pushes through, i'd love to see Moses Leave.

He's Jxt not getting any better.[/color]

Spot on mate. If Bruma joins, Moses should go to Everton or somewhere else he gets to play this rubbish jogging football.
And it doesn't matter that this is a friendly, that's how he plays.

Only Schurrle and Wallace are sharp. Hazard's tired. Moses is meh.
This seconf half has been under-par. Still only fitness matters.

McEachran and Piazon in. MVG and Hazard out.

2nd half team

Cech
Wallace Kalas Cahill Cole
Ramires MVG
Hazard
Moses Ba Schurrle

2nd Half

Only a few minutes and Ramires has already almost lost possession.

El Guapo: [color=#0066ff]3nil before the break - Lovely finish Lukaku!

Nateevs where In burkinafaso did u dig tis Traore dude out? [/color]

3-0 Lukaku. Great pass from Traore for an assist.

Isn't it a relief that you see a shot like that sailing towards goal and you don' feel like a disaster is about to happen? The scary days of Hilario and Turnbull.
Buying Schwarzer is one of the best moves this summer.

Feruz is on. Make it count boy.
