Three Luton Players Signed

That means these kids will have to move to London with their family?

If so, why do the parents agree on such a stupid move?! The kids could have played for Luton till they're 15 or so, then see if they can make it to the professionals and move on to another club, if they are good enough.

Luton aint far from London at all. Also Luton is a complete and utter dump (Sorry to any members that live there), they would most likely have to move down to Cobham area which is far nicer.

Chelsea fans are just a ray of sunshine aren't we?!

Come on, cheer up people, we need a bit more optimism here.

Still, the kids will have to move away from all their friends and kids their age have to be living in an incact surroundings, containing a true home. Don't know if moving to another city is that good for them... even it isn't far away from their old home town.

These kinds of deals happen all the time. Every club does them. Not sure why this is such "big" news

[Idiot 71]

Not "big" news but disgusting behaviour which is absolutly needless because of our youth-system. If they progress well they will be loaned out to 6 clubs in 5 countrys and will be sold in the end back to Luton

Welcome to the club lads and good luck

The Daily Mail went with the following headline, 'Chelsea sign Luton brothers - aged 12 and 13 - as AVB looks to the future'

^ "as AVB", Lmao.. like AVB had anything to do with this.

This is normal? Isn't disgusting in the slightest, jeez.

Hm, seems like we have totally different moral concepts. Only because its normal it doesnt legitimises questionable behaviour. In the occident we praise ourselves because of our go-ahead society but we tolerate child trafficking at the same time .Sounds like double standards to me.

And why not? Barca are doing just that with their La Masia and get all the praise.

Them being here means more coaching hours, more chances to become better.
