I remember him, we all thought he'd be first team one day.. :whistling:

So who really gives a fuck if Romeu wants to go home in two years...? Although he is said not to be a common Spanish bitch but a complet midfielder very strong physically ; I would prefer Clifford to him. The Irishman is amazing, Reid and Plymouth fans were so happy of him this season.

And I find Clifford full of quality, he is in the pure british midfielder style I like so much so the only thing I want is that Romeu will perform well until Clifford knocks to the door. After that honestly, Romeu can go warming the bench and win trophies he won't play a big part in, I don't give a fuck

ORIOL DEAL COMPLETED

Posted on: Thu 04 Aug 2011 Chelsea Football Club is delighted to announce the signing of Oriol Romeu Vidal from Barcelona on a four-year-contract.

The 19-year-old will join us once his duties with Spain's U20 World Cup squad in Colombia are complete. Midfielder Oriol has so far played 90 minutes in each of Spain's two matches, a 4-1 win over Costa Rica and a 2-0 win against Ecuador.

Oriol began with Barcelona's smaller neighbours Espanyol before joining the famous Camp Nou academy in 2004, progressing through the ranks until a reserve team regular playing in Spain's second tier under Luis Enrique.

He made his La Liga debut for the senior Barça side at the end of last season, coming on as a late substitute in a 0-0 draw against Deportivo La Coruna, having also appeared at the beginning of the campaign in a Spanish Supercup loss away at Sevilla.

The 6ft Catalan can also play in central defence and is renowned for his strength and his expansive passing ability.

Will look forward to seeing him play in a Chelsea shirt. Seen some good reports on him, obviously good cover for Essien with the injury but hopefully can grow into a real candidate for a regular starting place.
