https://www.chelseafc.com/en/news/2019/09/21/pl2-report--southampton-v-chelsea Our development squad continued their unbeaten start to the season and returned to the top of the Premier League 2 table as goals from Callum Hudson-Odoi and Clinton Mola secured victory at St Mary’s. Reece James and Hudson-Odoi both came through 75 minutes of a battling encounter, with the latter opening the scoring for Andy Myers’s side just before the hour mark. Mola then doubled our lead 13 minutes later with a header that was adjudged by the officials to have crossed the line by inches. Jamie Cumming made important saves in goal to preserve a third PL2 clean sheet of the season, while James also hit the crossbar with a header as the young Blues grew stronger in the contest to record a deserved victory. The three points take us two clear of Everton and Arsenal, winners of the past three league titles, and continue an excellent start to the season for the team. There is a quick turnaround for our next outing, which comes at Bristol Rovers on Tuesday in the EFL Trophy. While Hudson-Odoi and James started once again in the latest step of their injury comebacks, there were five other changes from our last PL2 outing, a 2-1 win against Brighton at Stamford Bridge eight days previously. Billy Gilmour was the most notable returnee, with the Scotland Under-21 international and recent senior debutant having recovered from a groin strain to start alongside George McEachran in central midfield. Cumming replaced Nicolas Tie in goal, Ian Maatsen came into the team at left-back, while both Thierno Ballo and Marcel Lavinier lined up in forward positions after featuring as substitutes against the Seagulls. There has been an increased interest in the work of our Academy this season following Frank Lampard’s use of the likes of Mason Mount, Tammy Abraham and Fikayo Tomori, and the efforts of those players to take their opportunities so impressively. However, Lampard reiterated in his Friday press conference that there was plenty of young talent that had yet to reach the mainstream and the next crop of young Blues have certainly started the season in fine form, coming into this latest league encounter unbeaten in six matches in all competitions at the start of the 2019/20 campaign. It was at St Mary’s the previous evening where three former graduates of the Chelsea Academy started in the Premier League (Nathan Ake, Dominic Solanke and Ryan Bertrand), while the Saints PL2 team contained four youngsters who had spent time in our youth development programme, highlighting the extent of the system’s productivity. Southampton had the best chance of the first 25 minutes as a teasing cross from left-back Jake Vokins caused problems in our six-yard box when Maatsen miscued an effort to turn the ball behind. Dan N’Lundulu was lurking for the hosts but Cumming dived bravely at the striker’s feet and the ball was eventually smuggled to safety. snip

Roman Abramovich put foot down in summer – Marca say Chelsea owner refused to negotiate sale http://sportwitness.co.uk/roman-abramovich-put-foot-summer-marca-say-chelsea-owner-refused-negotiate-sale/ I actually am not freaked out by this, as we have no real other LB options due to the bans and the WTF-sale of Familia Castillo back to Ajax (why the hell we did that I have no clue), and IF we play a back 3, Alonso is quite decent as a wingback, and I am worried a bit about Ian Maatsen's height (I was happy to see the dwarf Dasilva sold, he was freakishly short) but Maatsen is only 1.68m, which is supposed even shorter than Dasilva, who was listed at 1.70m (which was a lie, it HAS to be) look at Dasilva my sweet fa he is 1.7m Maatsen is 13 cms shorter than me!! As he only turned 17yo 5, 6 months ago, hopefully he hits a final growth spurt I still say he is taller than Dasilva that said Maatsen is still too small look at him 8 days ago next to Zouma EEEEEEK holy shit!!

Goal is one of the worst sources, I have been burnt by them so many times If Matt Law at the Telegraph (best Chels journo on the planet), plus The Guardian, and the BBC all say £120K per week, I go with them

Callum Hudson-Odoi signs new five-year Chelsea deal worth £120k a week By Alistair Magowan BBC Sport https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/49760809

Callum Hudson-Odoi signs new five-year, £120,000-a-week contract with Chelsea By Matt Law, football news correspondent https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2019/09/19/callum-hudson-odoi-signs-new-five-year-120000-a-week-contract/ 19 SEPTEMBER 2019 • 6:49PM Chelsea have announced that Callum Hudson-Odoi has signed a new five-year contract that has made him one of the highest-earning teenagers in world football. Hudson-Odoi has put pen to paper on a deal worth £120,000 a week, which over the course of the next five years could earn the 18-year-old a total of £31.2million. Chelsea will recoup some of that money by making Hudson-Odoi the club’s new poster boy to replace Eden Hazard, who joined Real Madrid in the summer. It is expected that over the course of the next year, Hudson-Odoi will become Chelsea’s most marketable asset and the youngster is likely to get Hazard’s number 10 shirt once 31-year-old Willian leaves Stamford Bridge.

damn they should had had 12 or 13, amybe more I so wanted 10 nil at least

fuck, De Bruyne miss a glorious opportunity after an brilliant run

shitty have tied our two 8 nil wins

8 nil De Bruyne ROCKET come on!! TWO MORE to erase Manure

Silva on the verge of getting the sack

they are such a bizarre team overlapping CB's, roflmaooo wtf

I SO want to see Manure's 9 nil record go down those twats still be yapping about that

18yo Shiity CB on, Erick Garcia, Otamendi off

7 nil Bernardo hat trick De Bruyne has been all world first team by miles

If absolutely should be 10 or 11 nil

Aguero is actually having a POOR finishing game, he has missed 4 near sitters

Dembele is far too eratic IF you guarenteed he had a 'on' game then maybe, yes he is so fucked up mentally one of the most immature stars in Europe I have lost all interest in him he would be poison here I am all about the Sancho but fear he ends up in either Manure of Shitty (especially if Sane goes to Bayern and he (Sancho) and Pep both swallow pride, which may not happen)

I was actually thinking about putting them in that post, so good call I would not mind seeing them win the CL if we do not I never had a massive hatred for them (plus I LOOOOVE Paris, roflmaooo) That capitulation to Barca a few years back was just a killer

a year of breathing fag smoke from Sarri will lower his demands

6 nil Bernardo again he is like Messi-lite in dribbling

in every league it has been such a chaotic start after that Napoli pummelling, I cannot even say that the Dippers look like the clearly best team in Europe (Shitty would be if they had not lost their only 2 decent CB's, which has already had an impact, this Watford slaughter aside) I guess I would go with Barca? They still do not look right either. Very hard year to predict all over
