Chelsea line Up 2017-2018

Next thread will probably be 'Chelsea line-up 2037/8' .

With our kids being in the line-up.

[Beast 85]

We don't even know our line-up for the 2011/12 season..

[Kostas 1,468]

can't you see lukaku, mata, courtois or luiz starting in 6 years!!!

Just because Lukaku and Courtois are highly rated as teenagers doesn't mean that they are going to start games in 6 years for one of the top clubs in Europe, if that's what we believe we'll be. Luiz has already made enough mistakes to gain some critics and create some doubt while Mata has so far started a grand total of 0 games for Chelsea thus we don't have the slightest idea what his Chelsea future holds.

It is as simple as comparing other top clubs in the biggest leagues in Europe to their squads in 2005-2006, need I mention how many different Barcelonas and Manchester Uniteds we've seen in those years?

As Beast pointed out we don't even know our line-up for this season and frankly I've not had confidence in my knowledge of the ability of all our players since last summer. Until I figure the answer to that question, and that's going to take more than a couple of games since I'm not that eager to cast out and conceder any player who joined us before 09/10 (bar Cech and Ivanovic) washed-up, finished, done etc despite the highly annoying current fad I can't seriously talk about the future of players who are mostly of unknown quality.

All I'll say is that the future looks far brighter for the club than it did 5/6 years ago in terms of talent.

And surely the success of the youth and ressies recently, as well as 'changing our policy' and signing the likes of Davila, Courtois, Lukaku and Romeu this summer is only going to attract more and more.

Where's Kalou

[the Blues 11 19]

I'm still trying to figure out this season, let alone 6 years from now. I would be surprised if five guys you named made it to then.

This thread is optimism at its best...or is it its worst? :thinking:

Agreed. I don't think we can talk about the starting line-up in six or seven years' time, because most of us can't guess what it will be in six or seven games' time! However, with this fresh talent coming in from elsewhere to add to the likes of Josh, Bertrand et al. emerging through the youth academy, I think in a couple of years we will actually see some Chelsea academy graduates in the first-team. We've also got talents like Todd Kane and Nathaniel Chalobah emerging too - exciting times!!

[Madmax 9,219]

He will be the Manager.

I'm betting on D.O.F

[Kojo 4,676]

In the future we will be playing 4-4-2

Turnbull

Bosingwa-Titus Bramble-Squillachi-Kalou Junior (Kalou's future son)

Beckham-------Kalou-Lampard-------Malouda

Torres-Freddy Drogba

And our manager will be Garry Neville and Assistant Manager will be Ron Gourlay.

Yep we've got a pretty bright future.

[Term-X 7,891]

Kalou Junior (Kalou's future son)

Heck, why not shut down the academy and replace it with a selective breeding clinic. The entire future Chelsea squad will consist of Kalou's genetics.

[xjdd 11]

I wanted him to be a regualar last season but looking at what has just happened to Wilshere i think we should wait and be patient.

To keep him from injurie ? yeah that's right, we couldn't let him play 50+ games like Wilshere did
