@Peace., I hope you see this ^ A few months or maybe even last year, we spoke about the same thing. For all the praise, hype and exposure RLC had received from JM and youth-fans alike, what do we actually know about this kid. Is he ready to compete at the top level despite not having gone out on loan somewhere? Is this cotton wool approach really necessary to bring him straight out of the academy before he's forced his way into the team? Hell we even sent Terry out on loan at least once before he broke into the Chelsea team. Loftus-Cheek, like any other youth player, still has to prove himself and I think he'd do well to do it on loan where the pressure wouldn't be as great on him.

To be honest, I've not seen many people say they want Guus out at all. We're simply calling him out on the things Mourinho got fired for, of course it's absurd to ask for his head after 2 games!

Hahahah, not many will remember her! They barely remember Michelle

Kane gave Sherwood the ultimatum, play me or let me go. At Chelsea, the default answer will always be "off you go". Lukaku demonstrated that quite well, didn't he?

Hey, hey, I'm not here to judge... If Kelly Rowland is what helps you through these dark times

I never took you for a Beyonce guy, but whatever floats your boat..

I do agree with this to an extent. The problem I have with 'this time next month' is our position is precarious that the point of sacking Mourinho now was to bring in a manager who would implement the changes we've been crying out for. Namely, sorting out this defence which clearly has a massive gap on the right that needs plugging. I'm not even suggesting we use Aina or Loftus-Cheek or Musonda to sort this out. Right now, I couldn't give a flying crap about youth integration. We're in a relegation scrap and are struggling to get 3 points consistently, anyone can see where the problem is and Hiddink's reluctance to act immediately is telling. I don't want to speak on the farce of RLC's introduction today - Mourinho was slated for similar. But when a 19-year old is continuously skinning our undisputed right-back, you don't need a week to act.

Lol.. Just because Hiddink continues to die by the José sword doesn't mean the club didn't do what was necessary at the time. You'd think they'd then learn to not rehire another former coach, but hey ho.. (p.s. if you're being sarcastic, apologies as I'm too frustrated to notice)

With that one save, compared to DDG's numerous, he showed why he's superior. (I do rate DDG highly though!)

What, forgot about RLC coming on in the 92nd min?..

@Henrique @Ossie the King Find myself agreeing with a majority of your posts today; regarding the team and Hiddink. Props to you guys :tophat:

At this point, I just care more for my fantasy football team. Clean sheet means I'll probably get bonus points for Smalling and DDG

I used to think this was a bad idea because it could shake their confidence blah blah.. But how much worse can it get?! Even if if it's a run of 2-3 games then to the bench, then bring him back etc. It can't be bad for him, any experience is good experience! Alas you're right.. The club would never do it. Unless he cost £100m.

Fuck sake, should've just used him today.

Didn't you watch Arsenal the other day?

You know what's amazing.. It wasn't so long ago that we'd have never entertained the idea of selling an effective player of ours let alone to a direct rival. Roman's direct interference was the result of that because it's been well documented if Mourinho had his way Cech wouldn't have gone there. Now it's perfectly acceptable. Baffles me.

Yea I don't dispute that, but I think under normal circumstances it wouldn't have been him on the end of that anyway.

The guy who chipped Valdes at the Nou Camp? Who took on Manch City defence to bury past Joe Hart? Clumsy as he is, he can finish the boy.

tbf, we know Matic can't finish. Ramires should've been there. This static midfield on Mikel-Matic starting game makes little to no sense to me.

don't you jynx this now!

Lmao I mean I had to double check on the skyscrapers part.. But I got what you mean

And then he does that

I'll give you that, well put!

You can actually see how he has so much of a better understanding with Pedro than anyone else. Because Pedro's played with the likes of Messi and Neymar, he knows what movement to make to enable Hazard. He still needs to work on his game, but he's the only player who's got the intelligence and skill to play with Eden.

United fans already talking about DDG > Courtois. Bore off.
