I think the board have really backed Sarri on this Higuain deal, the age and money possibly involved but Sarri really wanted him and they appear to have got him. 6 month loan with extra years loan option and option to buy, I'll fully back him as his a Chelsea player now, just have to go through the search for a striker again in 6 months, but welcome Higuain, I don't think a lot of those players will like him shouting at them when they hold on to the ball, fiery man,

Over the moon we’re backing the manager. To be fair he has cleared a lot of deadwood so far. Moses, Drinkwater and Cahill drooped just need to be sold and moved off the wage bill. Morata, Giroud, Zappacosta hopefully next to go and then Willian and Alonso in summer would be great. Keeping Hudson-Odoi and also signing Paredes would be a great window. Hopefully move for Icardi in summer or maybe Jovic he looks complete for a striker so young.

I just read a comment saying Higuain will stat peddle v all the teams except the top 6, the first comment below was” thank god as we don’t even have thst at that the moment “.

I have to say that I am surprised at how excited I am by us signing Higuain. Is he the long-term answer? No. Is he as fit as he should be? No. But we are signing an established World Class player which hasn't happened in years. Can't wait to see him in blue - hope he's on the bench v the Arse on Saturday. Paredes next please, Maria.

Parades or Mount next season?

Think people are seriously over rating Mount. I know he has potential but Derby fans are saying he’s very inconsistent even though he’s still young. Loftus-Cheek should be first choice LCM when he’s back. I’d have Mount over Barkley but don’t think Mount is as good as what people say. Especially Alex Goldberg on Twitter 🙄.

Mount isn’t even as good as Barkley yet, he’s great technically but does go missing in games. Got fantastic potential and certainly one for the future but he’s not at the level to start for us yet.

As I’ve said all along, if they are good enough for the first team they will be playing or training with the first team day in day out. Look at Ampadu, CHO etc. I also see Charlie Colkett get mentioned a few times about how he should be involved with the squad, yet he’s not doing anything amazing at Shrewsbury lol. Jokers some of them. Think the youth is the answer to all our problems. 🙄.

IMO I’m unsure on MM. is he better then Jorginho, RLC, Kovacic (if signed permanently) Barkley, well the answer is no. Potential yes. Could he potentially take one of those spots - of course.

In my opinion some of our home grown loan army require testing in the Premiership before we make absolute judgements.

Some players just need that progression. Didn’t JT say the loan he went out on made him a player?

Some, but very few, in my opinion can just go from kids to Premiership football.

Hopefully Derby will get promoted and MM and Tomori will get experience in the Prem (ps our present midfielders could take at how often Mount shoots from distance) .


10.) 17 Jan 2019

Loftus-Cheek not good enough, Barkley not good enough, Mount not good enough yet. None of them close to consistent enough or offer enough goals or assists, Mount has time, think RLC will move to palace or mid table team and that’ll be his level and be plagued by injury unfortunately, that left CM spot needs to be filled with someone special who offers what other 2 don’t,


11.) 17 Jan 2019
17 Jan 2019 19:09:32
RLC not good enough? He’s been quality this year he’s exactly what we need LCM. It’s because of people like you Matt Martin youth never gets give a chance. I think he’s a beast.


12.) 17 Jan 2019
17 Jan 2019 19:36:26
yeah it's a shame injuries have put him back a bit. Also he has been playing on the wing . which is not his position.


13.) 17 Jan 2019
17 Jan 2019 19:59:50
I am with Matt on this one, don't think RLC have showed anything that warants his place in starting eleven.

Firstly he doesn't work enough, even though has a good shot barely tests a keeper from distance or makes runs to the box.

People like me hahahah, as much as I value my opinion I don’t think the last 3 Chelsea managers / owner and board value my opinion. Loftus-Cheek hasn’t been brilliant his year at all or even close, his been better than the other options and even then that’s only at times, Cho has teams like Bayern Munich and Dortmund afte rhim, Loftus-Cheek has teams like palace after him. Says enough, and it’s people like you who over rate players purely to do with academy / age / nationality, his English his young and come through youth. I like him. His good, but if his such a brilliant player what’s his position?


15.) 18 Jan 2019

LCM sunshine. And if I over rate youth why do I think Mount is average 🤔🤔🤔🤔.


16.) 18 Jan 2019
18 Jan 2019 06:31:56
A LCM who doesn’t score or assist ( sorry, a hat trick v a team I couldn’t name one player in ), isn’t mobile enough doesn’t work enough. is used on wing and used for England when selected to play Cm, Cam And on the wing, . When a players good enough they play there position, his a squad player, does a job when needed and am an cover a few positions. His a midfield version on Phil Jones, that midfield spot is being usher by 3 players, if he was good enough and not injure all the time for such a beast, that spot would be his permanently, listen I’d love nothing more than him to do well but I think when push comes to shove we can and will do better and get someone for that spot, why don’t you rate mount then? People like you why players at Chelsea are loaned out all the time. I respect you opinion and at end of the day we all have our own,


17.) 18 Jan 2019
18 Jan 2019 12:12:14
id agree on the point rlc is no were near showing why he should start for us. he still looks so lazy when he does play its almost frustrating to watch him . he has everything u need to he a top player just run around a bit more for god sake haha.


18.) 18 Jan 2019
18 Jan 2019 14:52:51
"Loftus-Cheek not good enough" what're you smoking? whenever he's played he's looked quality, more impressive than any of our other midfielders.


19.) 18 Jan 2019
18 Jan 2019 15:34:55
Looking better then an other midfielders you mean Barkley and kovecic, like I said, all 3 Barkley kov RLC will be upgraded,


20.) 18 Jan 2019
18 Jan 2019 18:10:37
RLC is our best midfielder after Kante. Don’t know what you’re watching if you don’t rate RLC haha.


21.) 18 Jan 2019
18 Jan 2019 18:26:52
Cheers TruBlu and Nick nice to see some real Chelsea fans appreciate a quality player when they see one. And as for lazy Loftus-Cheek isn’t. He reserves his energy for the right moments he might look it but he isn’t.


22.) 18 Jan 2019
18 Jan 2019 20:00:59
some real chelsea fans? what are we not real fans because were stating the obvious loftus cheek has never stood out so far in a chelsea shirt but i will agree neither has barkley or kova so i do agree he deserves a bit more time to shine but so far he's been very average for me as yesss he does look unbeleivably lazy on the pitch and sluggish. TOM B attends a lot of games im sure hed agree rlc hasn't shown us what he really has to offer yet.


23.) 18 Jan 2019
18 Jan 2019 20:03:34
and as for reserving his energy for the right moments that's absoloute rubbish man he's a professional footballer he is or he should be more than fit enough to run around and make that dart of pace moment when ever he needs too not saving it for a moment what moments are u talking about? i no im been critical here but he just hasmt shown enough to me and yes i would hope he succeeds in a chelsea shirt and he has d quality to do it im sure just my opinion on him.


24.) 18 Jan 2019
18 Jan 2019 21:06:06
Oh here we go, I’m not a real Chelsea fan because I don’t rate a player you do. Embarrassing comment, Loftus-Cheek has been at times been very average, at times Barkley has been average and at times so has kovecic, just because one has been a little more consistent than the others doesn’t make him the better player, his has all the attributes but it’s not as good as you want, like I said, Bayern and Dortmund are rumoured clubs for CHO, yet RLC has mid to bottom end of table teams after him. Says everything you need to know, and if RLC has that much about him then people would be skating jorginho for what he brings to the team, I garuantee that next season RLC won’t be starting the first game of the season. Is that a Chelsea youth problem or just not as good as you want them to be, if there good enough they will play, wonder if Madrid would take RLC and we keep kovecic, they would laugh in our face,


25.) 18 Jan 2019
18 Jan 2019 21:53:51
I’ll remember that comment and when Loftus-Cheek comes back and makes a massive improvement to the side and goes on to be a beast I’ll keep an eye out for you praising him after all you and magic is done is call him over rated and lazy, we’ll see sunny Jim 😉.


26.) 18 Jan 2019
18 Jan 2019 22:05:13
I’m sure it’ll be a case of his an improvement on the others rather than lighting up the world, I’m sure a good run and palace or bournemouth might be all over him, Watford even,


27.) 18 Jan 2019
18 Jan 2019 22:14:02
I’ve never been sure of the position RLC is best suited to and I’ve never been convinced about his work rate but I hope he gets time on the pitch to prove my concerns are ill founded.


28.) 18 Jan 2019
18 Jan 2019 22:27:58
king kante i don't argue with your opinion mate i hope rlc as much as u goes on to be a real star but as of now he's done nothing to prove he's good enough as i said do neither has barkley or kova so yess he does and probably should get a go when he sorts his injurys.


29.) 19 Jan 2019
19 Jan 2019 00:17:22
I said he’s been more impressive than any of our other midfielders. Please tell me what any of out other midfielders have done this season that have been more outstanding then what he has done? Who has scored more goals? Who has created more chances?


30.) 19 Jan 2019
19 Jan 2019 06:36:28
That’s the problem, nobody in the LCM position has made it there own, all had the chances there and nobody stamped there authority, which is why I think in the summer that will be a big priority, as I think we can do a lot better than the 3 options we have at the moment, I’d like nothing more than for RLC to prove me wrong, but it’s only my opinion,


31.) 19 Jan 2019
19 Jan 2019 09:18:51
it really. is a pity he's picking up injuries its denying him a chance to play.
