Bimffo: They were top 5 last season. But this season, they won't make top 7 because they sold their best players. We have Bilbao, Villareal and Celta Vigo fighting for top 5. |

Bimffo: Kakuta was once regarded at the next best thing for us. . he was given a chance. we know how it ended Josh Mc Echrean was also well regarded then and was given a chance and we still know how it ended. now as a youth, None of these youngsters from chelsea are at the level of Messi, Pedro, Bousquet and Alaba like you have listed. None even have the potential to be as good as them which is why i feel you're wrong. Its even blasphemy to think any of our youngies are at Messi's level when he was that young. I am not saying they shouldnt be given a chance, but the exceptional ones who have proven themselves on loan and taken their chances when they get these little cup games should be considered. |

lalaboi: Apart from Messi, Did you know Alaba Busquet, Pedro when they were Youth players? And How are You sure none of the Youth players at Chelsea cant get to that level. Those Top players started from somewhere. And they didn't just become Top players over night. Just a chance. But You have a Point too. Football is evolving, You have to buy and Buy to succeed. E.g, La Masia is dying. |

Dayo is the kind of person to tell you that a Red shirt is a Red shirt because it's a Red colored shirt but comes the next day to say it can't be called a Red shirt because it was once white but dye made it a Red shirt. 21 Likes 2 Shares |

This is quite surprising tho', how would you use UEFA ranking to judge the form of a team when there is a closer criteria like league table to use? I'm sure many people do bet here, do you use UEFA ranking to assist in your predictions? |

Bimffo: Not every club is willing to bring on board an inexperienced lad on loan. They'd rather buyout his clause and groom him to their own satisfaction. So it's nearly difficult for us as a club to find 'reputable' clubs who're willing to have these inexperienced lot on loan, it's just difficult. Lest you forget, not every prospects makes it to the top. Most of these chaps look impressive now 'cos they're up against their mates, pitch them against their superiors and watch as they saulter (we have a good example in RLC). So if you're looking at giving some kids playing time at Chelsea, you should be looking at chaps like Christensen, Pasalic and Ake, chaps who are holding down first team shirts at average good sides like Monchengladbach, Monaco and Watford. Aina, Colkett et al are just names. 2 Likes 1 Share |

Mikel Is Part Of Our Problem – Chelsea’s Club Legend Reveals. author=kingjizzy2 post=39718183]Mikel Is Part Of Our Problem – Chelsea’s Club Legend Reveals. John Obi Mikel who has been in action regularly following the gross under-performance of first-choice midfield pair Fabregas and Matic, has been alleged to be one of the factors responsible for Chelsea’s slump in their current campaign. |

nateevs: The question is where is the 'somewhere' though? It can't be at a high pressure environment like the bridge. Let them show themselves on loan first. I remember when Bimffo used to rave about PvA. The lad is now an integral member of one of the worst defences to be seen over the last 4-5 years. Admittedly it's not all his fault, but the point stands. Chelsea needs ready made sure things, not a bunch of maybes and could bes 2 Likes |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by Griffon: 2:38pm On Nov 06, 2015 |
nateevs: You're missing the point sir. I'm not saying these lads don't deserve a shot at the big stage, what I am saying is that it's difficult for Chelsea to find a good environment where these chaps would go to hone their skills. If Aina or Colkett were to spend a full season on loan at Barnet - a conference side, would you deem them good enough to feature in our plans for a new BPL season? The top sides who're willing to accomodate these inexperienced ones aren't always knocking on our door 'cos it's a nuclear option. Chelsea as a franchise on the other hand want the best for these lads, hence we don't entertain every loan offer that come our way. The likes of Christensen, Ake and Pasalic are fortunate enough to be where they are today. It's a matter of who's willing to have an unproven Aina or Colkett in his plan, it's a matter of 'where is the somewhere'? |

Nihilist: The idea that it cannot be at a high pressure environment will always remain subjective. Chelsea cannot be more of a high-pressure environment than Barcelona, United, Madrid and Bayern. Yet these clubs from time to time commit to giving a few kids decent minutes in competitive games. In the end, it always depends on the mentality of the current manager. No one's asking number two and number 3 strikers to be Isaiah Brown and Dom Solanke. That would be pushing it. But as it's turned out this season, no one can tell me we would have fared worse if Patrick Bamford was chosen as no 3 striker instead of Falcao. That is one scenario where the "ready-made" ideology falls flat on its face. Some dudes who are feeling brave like me would have chosen RLC every single time this season in place of Mikel. Many people will rave about this player and that player. 90% of them will not turn out use-able. FACT! But there are times where you can clearly see that some just have it and the right thing to do is to field them. End of! |

nateevs: Where you missed it is comparing to Chelsea to Barca, Manyoo, Bayern etc. In terms of trophies won, those guys are the elite of the Europe. They can afford to sacrifice a few seasons as the cost blooding in new youngsters. We don't have that luxury. You must not forget that these guys are the benchmark. They are who we want to be. We are the ones chasing the sheer amount of success they have achieved. What you're suggesting is the equivalent of a O-Level holder taking a break in his education because he saw a PhD holder doing so. We cannot afford to do that. Ignoring our poor position on the log sef, we are competing with City, Arsenal, PSG, and co to be seen as the leaders of the new school. Arsenal that was the most pro-academy team in the EPL has only 1 genuine academy in their first team. No stories at this level my G. If Arsene Wenger can forsake his philosophy, then the youth theory is dead. RIP P.s Bamford is not even 3rd choice striker at Palace. They sold Glenn Murray and Bamford is still rooted to the bench. Pardew prefers a 9 goal a season beanpole up front. Bamford can play on either flank too...but he's behind a championship level winger on the bench too. I don't want to say I told you guys so but...sorry Bimmfo_rd 4 Likes 1 Share |
