I was looking at a few players for next season who we can target as our starting CF:
1) Mauro Icardi
2) Rodrigo Moreno
3) Ciro Immobile
4) Nabil Fekir
5) Anthony Martial
6) Maximiliano Gomez
7) Krzysztof Piatek
Immobile seems highly unlikely though since I doubt he wants to leave Italy.
25 Sep 2018 08:50:24
My players for next season are as follows:-
1) Mason Mount.
2) Tammy Abraham
3) Reece-James
4) Hudson-Odoi
5) Ruben Loftus-Cheek
6) Ampadu
7) and the young keeper who’s name I’ve forgotten. ’
We all have different dreams!
25 Sep 2018 09:49:08
There are a ton of guys on WAGNH who share your dream.
Although, I must admit, I would be pretty happy with that list too apart from RLC and Tammy. (unless Tammy is the main backup)
Young keeper - Bulka? I think he needs to go on loan. He needs to play rather than sit on the bench.
25 Sep 2018 12:56:17
How could I forget his name!
I agree Roman he should have gone out on loan. He does look useful.
I also agree about RLC. The press and some fans see a player that I don’t but I think he has been played historically in the wrong position and in the current team it’s hard for me to see a position for him.
With Tammy I just live in hope but I do think he will have a good season at Villa.
25 Sep 2018 13:09:33
For me personally it would be Ampadu CHO bulka, then maybe Mitrovic as linked / immobile, fekir, Kingsley Coman, mixture of youth and proven talent, RLC and Abraham I don’t think are going to be good enough, Mount snd others need prem loan, or hope derby go up and stay a year with frank n Jody. N Reece James.

Hi guys, I am sorry to say that I don't see a good near future at Chelsea for these these good young Chelsea players that you've mentioned above esp with Sarri on board.
{Ed002's Note - Best thing to do for your unfounded comments would be to start a hate campaign against Sarri to get him removed from the club. Daubing abuse on the stadium and foul abuse on Facebook are a good start to removing the evil mother who won't play schoolboys and players who are not good enough or ready in the first team. Get to the stadium and make it really clear what the fans really think of him - try tweeting threats against him and his family making sure he knows who you want to replace him. Who is it you want instead of him? Get the message out there. I know where he is living, maybe petrol bombing the house will get the failure who obviously knows nothing of the game moved on?}
25 Sep 2018 21:18:37
I don’t think Ed002 is a fan of your comment obinna!
25 Sep 2018 21:37:18
Schoolboys? It's football, it doesn't matter if you were born yesterday as long as you can play the game. I must confess that i wasn't a strong supporter of some of these young players but since I saw what they can do and the hunger in them, I am forced to change my stance. Besides if the coach doesn't try to incorporate them into the team, I wonder if he'll do it when the sanctions on number of loa.
{Ed002's Note - Clearly you don’t like Sarri - and it is clear from all of the other posts that none of the others are happy with him not playing the children in every game. You need to get this out there and make it clear to the club that the fans want Sarri gone and want someone in who will play the kids.}
25 Sep 2018 21:51:21
(cont'd) loaned out players is implemented by FIFA. I don't see anyway around it this season if we must advance, the schoolboys must play or the grandpas can as well be given extended (long term deals) . I can't tell if you mean well for the club if you support the continuous fielding of these grandpas.
Please I don't hate the coach, I just don't understand how Hudson Odoi isn't even making the bench?
My comments are truly unfounded, I am only speaking my thoughts.
25 Sep 2018 22:01:45
Ed002, before now I have prayed for a manager that plays his brand of football. I can bet you that Chelsea will be a better team this season and in the future if Sarri plays Hudson Odoi. I like the football that Sarri brings.
26 Sep 2018 08:12:47
Ed002 why are you so defensive over the board lol. You’re completely missing the point. We’re not asking the ‘schoolboys’ (which is completely irrelevant, if you’re good enough you’re old enough) to play every game, we want them playing if they’re good enough. Hudson-Odoi was one of our brightest players in preseason and he is yet to make the bench over Victor Moses who is simply not good enough.
Ampadu is also a welsh international and was quality in preseason. I do think it’s harder for him to get gametime due to the quality of purblind defenders, but they deserve as much of a chance as Moses, Morata and Willian.
No idea why you get your knickers in a knot anytime someone mentions they think youth should be playing more.
26 Sep 2018 14:02:44
ED002 Gold right there.
That's one for the Facebook fan page.
I think the point is. get off the hype train, give the season a chance to develop, give Sarri a chance.
For what it's worth, I think we'll see more youth under Sarri, but regardless he's doing a great job.
26 Sep 2018 15:48:42
We have played like 7 games this season, I’m sure they will get there chance.
26 Sep 2018 23:06:23
Good post Standard.
I’m sorry but if anyone thinks Fabregas right now is better than Ruben or Ampadu you’re on something. The bloke can’t even run, which is blatantly obvious in this physical league. Moses did ok tonight but CHO is easily good enough to be starting Europa League and League Cup games.
What shocked me is his lack of rotation against PAOK! If you’re good enough you’re old enough. Loftus-Cheek can get in the England squad and Barkley can’t, yet Barkley chosen over him constantly, not sure what Sarri is looking at as Barkley is garbage, gives the ball away constantly! I tell you something, if RLC comes up for sale it won’t be Palace buying him, it’ll be Liverpool and City, probably Man Utd too, showing how good he is!
I just feel like Sarri is picking on reputation rather than football ability.
{Ed002's Note - You can help force Sarri out with the others looking for a coup.}
27 Sep 2018 14:17:54
No one here is Sarri's employer and so no one here can sack him. If Sarri is carrying out his job duties as agreed between him and the club, I don't think he has anything to fear. Sarri is the boss and fans- can only watch, enjoy ourselves or get sad and talk. The talk is part of the game.
{Ed002's Note - You must be devastated Chelsea weren’t thrashed last night and the waster is still there.}
27 Sep 2018 20:53:45
i think we should play the under 12s on saturday
with lampard as manager and play a 6 1 1 1 1 formation behind closed doors and if we lose i would sack lampard, what would he know he was a crap player for the club anyway and bring in ferguson {darren} now he knows what he's doing free flowing defensive lumpball on a muddy pitch
6 wins out of seven 2 away from home against top six sides everyonea winner baby
and noone has been that bad really morata needs a confidence boost but onwards and upwards.
27 Sep 2018 21:48:29
I have read a lot of above, don’t understand the attack on obinna, like all comments on here we may not agree with everyone’s opinion, but funny enough we live in a democracy. It just seemed a little personal. Especially when Ed’s complain about abuse, and refuse to comment for periods of time. I didn’t read any abuse apart from the ed towards obinnas opinion. Somewhat over the top.
I personally think both Hudson-odoi and ampedu should be making squad, as I believe they are the future. As for RLC I have always said I wouldn’t play him, his work rate is poor and for a big guy his tackling is poor. For the record Sarri is doing great things. I understand when he says he wants to keep a regular team this early in the campaign and when we are settled then introduce other players. Hopefully those players will be Hudson-odour and ampedu.
27 Sep 2018 22:04:57
I love Sarri. Perfect replacement for Conte. Go and support the youth team if u want the kids to play. By the way, think Sarri, his coaches, Franco Zola ALL know much more then you or I do. and get to see them EVERY day training etc. Don't like it? Go and support someone else.
27 Sep 2018 22:05:03
I totally agree Andrew. I did post a very similar response to yours but I guess it slipped through the net.
27 Sep 2018 22:15:37
7052 Andrew I live in Yemen and it's hardly a democracy my friend the only pleasure I get in life is Chelsea from dodging terrorism.
27 Sep 2018 22:16:23
Ampudu is 17 - Hudson-O'doi is 17 - personally, I don't think RLC is good enough and should be sold - Bulka is 17.
Ed002 is right - they are schoolboys gaining good experience training with the 1st team squad.
28 Sep 2018 11:17:20
Loko, I understand a little what it is, living in those kind of places. The game and the club is like a complete refuge for you. It's all good man.
30 Sep 2018 07:57:56
Sarri is great 433 is great.
30 Sep 2018 08:40:24
I always thought Belotti would make sense for Chelsea to look at but, given he had a less than impressive season last year, he is perhaps down the pecking order in terms of transfer targets. Icardi would be an incredible signing and, as a Liverpool fan, would have me worried. He does come with a lot of baggage though so perhaps not quite the perfect fit.
30 Sep 2018 10:38:44
My preference would probably be Maximiliano Gomez.
30 Sep 2018 17:20:22
I like Simone polombi on loan at lecce. Only young but banging them in. Belotti doesn't score enough for me but either way we need a CF in jan.
30 Sep 2018 22:33:48
Belotti started well last season, only to go down with a bad knee injury at the beginning of the season.
