quickpassnmove 924 Posted June 26, 2014 Share Posted June 26, 2014 I'm hoping this guy gets another chance at Chelsea and that his injuries are well behind him. Would be great to see him forming an effective midfield with Fab and Matic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

didierforever 7,349 Posted July 9, 2014 Share Posted July 9, 2014 Last year of contract. Hopefully we can offload him and kakuta and marin at the least. These simply won't be a part of our squad now or in the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

These simply won't be a part of our squad now or in the future.You really can't put him in the same category as Kakuta and Marin! He's been incredible unlucky with his injury and then with his loan. But his talent and potential has always showed. Even last season, before Valencia changed manager, he had a couple of MOTM performances for them.That said, I don't think his chances of making it here are high. He's just not what we're looking for in central midfield. The only place to be 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember watching the Sunderland game and thinking it was the perfect example of how players sometimes get a very small window to establish themselves at a top club. He was possibly on his way to cementing that CDM spot but the injury robbed him of the chance and just shows how much luck plays a role in a player's career.

Even if then he does not end up useful for the first team, we can get a lot more out of his sale. If it were down to me, I'd give him an extension (yes, his contract ends Jun 2015) and loan him out in La Liga or EPL.I remember watching the Sunderland game and thinking it was the perfect example of how players sometimes get a very small window to establish themselves at a top club. He was possibly on his way to cementing that CDM spot but the injury robbed him of the chance and just shows how much luck plays a role in a player's career.Last season was even worse luck if you followed what happened to him. He was still regaining match fitness at the start of the season, started getting some time off the bench in the EL, earned a start in the league, didn't play bad but his team decided to capitulate and lose 5-1, so it was a couple of months before he got another chance, off the bench in the EL, then started in the EL, then earned starts in the league, became a starter for them, won 2 consecutive MOTM awards, then got injured, manager got replaced during that time, the new manager found his new team quickly and Oriol never got another look in.

lucio 5,418 Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 Having completed over two thirds of last night’s 5-0 win at Wycombe Wanderers, Oriol Romeu has been reflecting on his first match in a Chelsea shirt since sustaining an anterior cruciate ligament injury at Sunderland in December 2012.The Spanish midfielder spent last season on loan at Valencia in La Liga, but has now returned to Stamford Bridge ahead of the coming campaign.The 22-year-old played just over 70 minutes at Adams Park, operating alongside Marco van Ginkel during the first half and Nemanja Matic after the break, and he was delighted to be back involved.‘The manager told me I was going to play for that long,’ he told the official Chelsea website. ‘He asked me if I was ready so I knew I was going to play 70 minutes.‘I felt good, I was tired at the end of the game but that’s normal after a long summer and a big rest. When you come back to play it’s difficult but we played well, it was a good victory.‘We scored five goals and didn’t concede any so that’s the main thing and we have to carry on. Even if it’s a friendly game you have to take it seriously, as if it’s for real, and that’s what we did.’Jose Mourinho was able to give at least 45 minutes to every member of the squad he’s been working with since pre-season training began last week, with the team made up of first-team regulars, players returning from loan spells and members of the Under-21s and Under-18s.One of those, Isaiah Brown, caught the eye with a brace, the second of which was a wonderful strike, and Romeu was impressed with the performances of the youngsters, with Patrick Bamford also on target.‘We have trained with them for the whole week and we know they are very good,’ he explained.‘They are all fantastic players and I think Chelsea have a big future for the next five-ten years, it’s good to see them come into the side and play like that and hopefully some of them will play in the first team.’Romeu, who signed for the Blues in the summer of 2011, looks back on his time at Valencia as a valuable learning experience, but is now eager to look forward.‘It’s good to be back, to see my team-mates and spend some time with them,’ he said. ‘I just want to train as hard as I can, play as much as I can and do my best. That’s my philosophy and that’s how I want to do it.‘I learned a lot, I played 16 or 17 games so it was good in the end. I’m here now to look to the future, the past is gone, I have to fight and we’ll see what happens.‘The staff are happy with me, I’m training well and doing what I have to do, I have to keep going like this.’He also had some kind words for his compatriot Cesc Fabregas, who joins up with his new team-mates next week, and believes the former Barcelona midfielder will be a fantastic addition to the squad.‘He’s a top player, a world-class player and I’m sure he will help the team challenge,’ said Romeu. ‘I’m happy to see the club signing such good players and it’s good to have them here.’http://www.chelseafc.com/news/latest-news/2014/07/romeu--good-to-be-back.html zolayes, kellzfresh and Muzchap 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chelsea Legend 11 4,062 Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 WOW! I'm sure everyone including myself thought he was out the door! This is pretty much and about face to that notion! I can't imagine loaning him out again having just put pen to paper, is Mikel really on his way out? The squad is HUGE! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZanSnake 1,211 Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 Basically seems to me that Mikel will leave, and Romeu could replace him in the squad.Hope has some chances to impress this season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The only place to be 11,313 Posted July 17, 2014 Share Posted July 17, 2014 https://www.facebook.com/OriolRomeu6?fref=nfSigned a new 3 year contractHe is entering the last year of a 4 year contract that he signed in 2011. He's still young so it makes sense to tie him down for a few years and hope to sell him in the future.At the moment we couldn't flog him for what we paid for him in all likelihood...or maybe Jose wants him in the squad. Doubtful. sherry33 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
