If he's lucky, Ron. Don't get too presumptuous!

From now one please use the [sarcasm][/sarcasm] tags as it is very difficult to pick it up on the internet. You can say something racist, cause all sorts of a furore and then say it was a sarcastic post. Not saying you did that, because I saw it was clearly sarcastic, but even so...

Play nicely

He was good in the FAYC match a couple of days ago but it's obvious he still needs A LOT of refinement. The reserves league is very poor and due to the irregular scheduling of matches, I don't think players can develop at the very best of their abilities. We should try and send him on loan next season to a Championship side or a "small" European team where he would get some consistent playing time. Or do people think he needs another season of development at the youth/reserves level before getting that loan move? I'm curious to know what regular youth football watchers like Esk think would be the best move for him.

Piazon is adapting well since his move and he is improving with every game. He will need another season at CFC to really settle in and be comfortable, maybe a first team appearance here and there (although unlikely) and then the season after will go out on loan. There will be a new set up for reserve football next season (although the details are yet to be announced) so hopefully he will benefit from that.

He's impressed me slot more recently, finally starting to justify his hype.

[Tobey Gibson 14]

tbh til now he didn`t impressed me, he was more than just good no question but I expected more.

but today just WOW!!!!

great overall performance, uniteds nr. 6 was desperate after just 20 minutes

hope he get`s involved this season once, even a cameo would satisfy me

Yup, I'm with you. Before today's performance, he was just one of the prospects in our youth team. But today's performance was so good that I was thinking he can get a game or two with the first team this very season. Maybe I'm getting ahead of myself due to the excitement, but let's be honest, there isn't much productivity we're getting out that left wing anyways. Hope RDM lets him make an appearance.

Saw his goal vs Man U Youth in semis. Great goal! Him and Feruz will be great for Chelsea!

that YOUNG are you sure?

[zolayes 14,489]

was about the only one who impressed today

[CHOULO19 24,332]

I didn't watch him tonight, but from the last few matches he has played, for me, he has completely justified the hype around him. I'm usually not very optimistic about talents from our youth academy, but I honestly think he and Feruez might just make it through!

[November33rd 84]

Looks like he could make his debut tomorrow.

Chelsea Young Player of the year and FA Youth Cup winner Lucas Piazon spoke to Sambafoot on his time at Stamford Bridge so far:

• •Brazilian named Chelsea Young Player of the Year
  
• •Lucas Piazon renews Chelsea deal
  
• •Sambafoot meets Lucas Piazon [2011]
  

On first year in London:

For me, I think that this first-year at Chelsea has been very good for me and my career. I have learned many good things as a player and I hope that next season can be as happy as this one. In the Premier League, Chelsea didn't have a good season. But, we are in the final of the Champions League and we won the FA Cup, so I think the club is very happy with the players who are playing in the first-team. Tomorrow, they will give me a chance to be on the bench and probably make my debut so, I am very at the club and I have no regrets about coming here. I will see what happens next season.

On Chelsea Young Player of the year award:

I knew before it was announced. When I arrived that day they told me, so when I received the award I already knew. But, when they told me I was very happy. I didn't expect it. I didn't know about this prize. I was very happy because I have only been at Chelsea seven months and I received a prize like this. It is really important for me at the club and for my career.

On possible first-team debut:

I didn't expect it. I thought my first year at Chelsea would be just getting used to English football, to the way they play here. For me, it is a very nice surprise and if they give me the opportunity to play fifteen minutes, or twenty minutes, it would be great for me.

On 2012 Champions League final:

I won't be there, I will be in Hong Kong [with the reserve side]. I think they can win the final. They beat Barcelona and they have been playing so well at the end of the season, so they have a great chance to beat Bayern Munich. But, it will be a very, very tough game. The absence of Ramires will affect the team a little. Rami is an important player, defensively and in attack. Chelsea will miss him for this game, but Chelsea has other good players. [branislav] Ivanovic also can't play and I think they are both big misses. I still think Chelsea can beat Bayern Munich.

On Chelsea's FA Youth Cup win:

The game against Man United [in the semi-final] was very tough. They play great football and have a great academy so we knew that would be a very tough game. We tried to play football. Both legs we played better than them and I think we deserved to win this tournament. I think there is a good generation coming through. Those few you mentioned [Lucas Piazon, Nathaniel Chalobah, Islam Feruz and Nathan Ake] are very good and there are more also. I think next season in the FA Youth Cup, Chelsea has a big, big chance to win because only me and three, or four, others can't play next season. It will be almost the same team. Chelsea will have a very, very good team and I think they will win again.

On the Olympic Games:

I hope so [to meet the squad]. I don't know where they will stay, or where they will play yet though. I won't be at the Olympics because the level of those players, at the moment they are better than me. I am so young and I think I can play in the next Olympics. I think they can win – Brazil always come with a good team, with many talents. I will support them a lot.

Twitter Questions:

What is your favourite English food? (@Dmitry_Shakhov)

Long pause... Fish and Chips... laughs

What's it been like learning a new language and culture in England? (@kendog92)

When I was a child, I used to study English in Brazil, so when I came it wasn't a big problem for me. Now I can communicate with anybody without any problems.

What's the difference between youth football in England and Brazil? (@sessegnon_28)

Here the players all try to defend as well and not just to attack. In Brazil, the game is slower and you can think more, you can have the ball for longer. I think that is the biggest difference.

Lucas' message for Sambafoot readers:

First of all, support Chelsea in the final and secondly, support me in all my career!
