Soton are a good club for youth players. He will excel there.

:censored: .. Tell me I didn't My sincere apologies to all here at Talk Chelsea. Don't know what on earth I was thinking. Complimenting that thieving, living-in-their-past team?! I don't think so!

I agree. The real challenge is, keeping all of these at the club & developing/integrating them well

I agree with everything there Tomo! It demonstrates my point that we should look to produce & sign quality English players regardless of the way they're being coached at the moment in that. Young, Henderson, Rodwell and co are great England prospects and even if England failed in big tournaments, as long as I knew they were representing England because they're the best in England, I'd be very happy indeed. Both as a Chelsea & England fan Definitely. Have high hopes for Chalobah though. He's still 16, so needs a few more years, but with the right coaching he can be better than Jones is now

fair do's Henrique! By the way Liverpool are also looking to sign Phil Jones. A player who embodies a young John Terry, with JT's mentoring he could be just like the legend. A future partner for David Luiz, if we gave him a chance. That being said, I rate Nathan Chalobah as highly and will be amazing one day <-^ so that's ok

I agree about quality. But these English lads are quality and I think we ignore them because we underestimate them, because in the PL you don't have individuals shining as much as in Spain, Italy, Brazil ect. It's more a team game here (not trying to criticise here) Henderson is a quality central attacking midfield player, a Lampard replacement if used correctly. Ashley Young is a proven winger, world class if he played for us, better & cheaper than Alexis Sanchez.

I think in every country you'll find fans jeering their national team when things do not go well. I guess it's just me then, but I feel embarrassed at our lack to input into England's future. Right now there's not guarantees of retaining Bertrand as it is and McEachran's time won't come for a while. Sturridge should make it. But he may be a sole representative. We've contributed the best centre back, left back & midfielder of this generation to England. Our follow up will be poor and below standards

So no-one thinks we should be trying to provide for a healthy future England team? As an English football team? That's makes me very sad..

Yeah, exactly. I'm not saying no to international signings, of course I welcome them, because of cases like Hernandez. But we must do more for England. Starting with Rodwell would be nice, but I don't see it in the club's immediate goals.

My own.

Sell him to pay for the signing of Ashley Young.

Forum. I talk to you in a half-tipsy state right now.. Drunk words, speak a truthful heart. With news coming in Liverpool are finalizing a deal for future England star, Jordan Henderson, I find myself in awe. In awe of Liverpool Football Club, Kenny Dalglish & Steve Clarke. They are paving the way in English football by taking one of the best rising stars of English football, paying big money as a risk, and giving him his true chance in the top tier of English Football. It makes me sad and angry at our club. While we chase the likes of Romelu Lukaku for £21million+addons, the likes of Andy Carroll were staring us blankly in the face as a future England #9. I don't care that they paid £35million for him. Good on them! They could've bought some international star, who will stay 2-5 seasons then leave because it's just a job for him. But no!! They chose to invest in England! Because they know they have a duty as a top English club, to help the national team! Their next target? England u18.. Connor Wickham. Our next target? Some international nobody. Ridiculous forum.. Absolutly ridiculous.

:censored:

We'd only make 1 or 2 high profile transfers a season with that squad.. What a dream! One day.. One day

Yeah, maybe even De Bruyne as well? Who knows, maybe another superstar too

He any good?

Popular rumour suggests we've done the deal.. Will be announced after the whole manager fiasco is sorted.

Who's he?

LMAO. Someone's not comfortable with the sexuality then

Hopefully next year's stats will be more promising

This. It's why Page3 is so popular. Because people are so fascinated by a pair of tits, they'll start believing everything that paper tells them

Did they say how long they each played?

What Killa said They love to lie and speculate here to sell papers. I honestly think they do it more over here than anywhere else in the world. It's crazy.

Wtf. Steve Clarke's already signed a new deal when Dalglish was offered a contract at Liverpool. I'd love him back, but it won't happen.
