🇧🇷 Lucas Piazón

[chelseathebest 150]

I just love this guy. Would love to have him in the squad one day.

[Blue Warrior 109]

Its going to take a massive improvement on his part to earn his way into the Chelsea lineup. His performances for Chelsea have been lacklustre. Its one thing playing for Vitesse its another to play for the Blues!

What performances for Chelsea do you speak of? He has practically never played for us, I only remember the Villa game in the League, he did quite well other than missing a peno as we pumped them 8-0.

[Fernando 6,585]

It would be awesome if this guys comes back to the team, but for years we been getting hyped up about young potential that never make it to our team.

[Blue Warrior 109]

You only get a small window of opportunity with Chelsea as a striker, so you have to be decisive and clinical. I expect this guy to be a success in Europe, just not up to Chelsea standard.

[Barbara 15,149]

Th guy is 19 why are questioning if he's going to have space in the team?

I'd be amazing for Chelsea to keep all among Oscar, Willian, Mata, Hazard and Schürrle for the next five years, but it's also very unlikely (I'm already counting Kev out). I know we have other players from youth, but Lucas is showing he can be a good addition to our squad 2-3 years from now. I've caught up with his latest matches and yeah, I'd like to see him tested as a second striker when he's back with us... maybe he can make it even as a striker. Those young players who show skill can be molded into a bit of different positions from their original position. For a guy playing second striker well, I think maybe molding him into a striker. It's not like we have many of those around here (although as I cover Chelsea's u-21 and u-18 teams I can see a good guys coming up, and hopefully they'll develop nicely as well)

Yeah, I expect at least 2 of our AMs to leave as well, and Lucas can come in and fill the void in the future as the kid is still very young.

Today, I read about this kid. It seems to me, he is just about to play for Chelsea, perhaps next season ?

He is enjoying a great loan spell at Vitesse.

So far, he has scored 11 goals in 18 appearances. Not bad in my view.

According to Whoscored.com, 11 goals in 16 appearances actually. Also 8 assists. Not bad at all.

Well, Frank is getting up there, he cannot play 40 games a season, youth is the answer.

[kellzfresh 7,229]

I hope he doesn't fade out like kakuta. Let him play a lot of games for 2 consecutive seasons. He'll be 21, then he can come to us. I really like that he's a good finisher. We need more of that here.

The few games that I had seen, an immense talent, a great potential. Piazon, Traore, two of my favorites.

[mediator 2,026]

If Mata leaves, he could be Oscar's backup.

Seeing that we will struggle when Lampard, Terry and Cole are leaving with the homegrown quota, we should bring him back asap to be club trained.

We don't need to have 11 world class starters + 11 world class backups, the club trained youth is the key when they are good enough like Piazon (Moses is homegrown btw)

Is Kakuta club trained or homegrown?

If KDB and Mata are off, that would gives :

Schuurle - Piazon - Moses (+ Kakuta) as backup

Hazard - Oscar - Willian as starters

And when Boga, Traoré, Mushonda will be ready, we would have greater backups while they are developing with the first team.

[Ze Mario 638]

kudos to peter bosz. even with the leaving of MvG and remy they still manage to reach the top (until now). if things goes smoothly, we can see our youngster such as piazon, atsu, patrick playing in champions league! a very rare opportunity for such only us as a big team in europe have this advantage.

[CHOULO19 24,332]

My commentator just said that Vitesse bought "Gustavo" Piazon from Malaga in the summer. I'm f***ing done!

[mccg 1,528]

Interesting who will be no.6 amigo next season,hazard,oscar,willian,schurrle,salas..???

Piazon, currently on loan at Dutch side Vitesse Arnhem, has represented Brazil at both under-15 and under-17 levels.

But the 20-year-old's family have Italian passports and he recently turned down an approach by the Italian FA to switch allegiances as he believes he is much too young to decide his international future.

When asked about the proposal to play for Italy, Piazon told ESPN Brazil: "They sounded out my father and my agent, but I said not now.

"I need to wait for now, I don't have to take a decision like this when I am 20 years old.

"Maybe in the future, if I don't have any chance (with Brazil), and they come to me again, I might even consider the idea, but this is not what I have in mind at the moment."

if they offered him a senior, national call up , i think he should take it

[boshman 1,073]

Can anyone tell me how this guy has been doing over there? Is he good enough to make it into our first team? I have seen literally nothing of their games this year.
