Starman60 1,343 Posted December 20, 2013 Share Posted December 20, 2013 We need to move him on I'm afraid. He's way behind Oscar, Hazard, Mata & even Schurrle. His confidence is suffering with the bit part he is playing at the moment. Last match he was really trying too hard, and when he lost the ball he usually ended up fouling his opponent in pure frustration. I think we should cut our losses on this one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oscar came out a star, but his first season was .... Unbalanced.. How can we expect to have a youngster with less experience overcome even more major issues?

Unbalanced..How can we expect to have a youngster with less experience overcome even more major issues?Oscar lost his father in a car crash when he was two years old, once he was in his early teens he made a vouch he would look after his mother & sister, and came through the ranks at one of the most competitive football academies in Brazil. He scored a hat-trick in the U-20 World Cup final and got 12 goals and 12 assists in his first season in Europe playing mostly out wide. He may not look it, but paradoxically, Oscar is one tough motherfucker.I do get your point though, although I think Oscar was a bad example.

My point however was more on KDB though, as I said Oscar came out strong even if it took him a year. My bad on the bad English. I don't see KDB as a mentally strong youngster (which has more to do with the personality you are born with than gruesome life experiences) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BleedsBlue 1,549 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 If Kevin does leave then for his development,I'd like him to join Athletico Madrid.Mainly because they are Champions League playing side and have a terrific coach.Diego is one of the must underrated coaches and I am sure that he'll turn him to a great player.He won't walk in straight to the starting 11 but we know Athletico spend their transfer funds wisely so I really don't see a problem in the long run.

bushman 2,043 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 KDB eager to leave Chelsea for Germany. Apparently 12.5m was offered. That´s all right and pretty close as most of us predicted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Share Posted December 21, 2013 Cant wait for him to leave just so we can stop hearing how he should definitely start and how good he is ....blah blah.Remember this Sturridge guy? People kept saying he was good and people like you wanted him gone, only to realise his worth when it was already too late. Obviously it's not going to be the same with De Bruyne because no matter how well he might do for his new club we still have a ridiculous amount of great attacking midfielders whereas with Sturridge gone we had only Torres, but it's still food for thought.

Stats 7,142 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Judging by the chances he is limited to I doubt he is even going to want to come back if he has the choice. Likelihood is he still can be excellent at another club but we still will have an embarrassment of riches in the attacking midfield. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Likelihood is he still can be excellent at another club but we still will have an embarrassment of riches in the attacking midfield.The question is no matter how good he get, can he EVER BE BETTER THAN Hazard, Oscar, Mata and even Schurrle/Willian? Who will all develop and improve with time as well. If the answer is no then we got nothing to worry about Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wilander 35 Posted December 21, 2013 Share Posted December 21, 2013 Shame we giving up on another talented player hope we won't regret it as much as selling Sturridge.He is a talent player, but not the essential one for Chelsea now.We have much more good AMC (Oscar, Mata, Willian, Schurrle, Hazard), but less healthY DMC (Only Rameriz is healthy, Van Ginkel is inexperienced and injuried, Lampard is too old, Mikel is far from world class level, Essien is burnt out.
