its called not trusting the youth unless they are exceptionally talented (example Kurt Zouma) I feel bad for Aké but I think it's obvious, his career will prosper after leaving Chelsea....then after 2-3 years, we will wonder why we sold him
There won't be an odd man out... -----------Courtois------------- Ivan - Zouma - Terry - Azpi -------Matic --- Pogba------- ----------- Cesc --------------- Willian------------------Hazard ------------Costa---------------
Yes it is...if you truly believe that Chelsea would benefit from playing an out of form CB at the defensive midfield position, then there is something wrong with you
Shit players don't come here? Then what is Oscar doing at Chelsea? He's not better than De Bruyne as a CAM yet he gets chance after chance after chance..
Fair point, his chances of getting first team football at Chelsea are very slim...but you never know! Mou has trusted Zouma this season...maybe Ake will be given similar opportunity if he does well in the cup final..
So after Friend and Atkinson make some appalling decisions in their respective games...the EPL decides to give them fourth-official duties for ONE weekend http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/football/competitions/premier-league/11430125/Martin-Atkinson-and-Kevin-Friend-will-not-referee-Premier-League-matches-this-coming-weekend.html#disqus_thread
All this talk about pathetic refereeing, campaign against Chelsea....maybe that's true BUT if you can't score more than 1 goal against a relegation opposition, how do you expect to win?
You're actually comparing Cahill to Howedes? The difference between them is that Howedes wouldn't look out of place at any top european club....as for Cahill, he'd be lucky to be on the bench at other top clubs
