Sampdoria wants all our youngsters

Maybe we should offer Cuadrado to Sampdoria too

Chelsea starlet Andreas Christensen set for Borussia Monchengladbach loan as Sampdoria switch targets to Kurt Zouma

Good move for him but it depends on whether he gets game time or not. I am quite surprised on Gladbach behalf that they are pursuing this loan unless like Thorgan, they believe it will turn into a permanent deal which I think is a possibility. Gladbach are not no average club. They finished 3rd and will be in the UCL group stages next season. There is no way Christensen will walk into the first team and that is where I am confused because it is unrealistic to think a 19 year old who has only played 12 minutes of professional football will play regulalry at a team like Gladbach. Look what happened with Kalas at Cologne. A inferior club and he struggled to get any minutes. Unless Christensen is a much better defender right now, which I don't think he is, I find if difficult to see where the games will come from tbh.

Andreas has played more than 12 minutes at first team level but this remains a valid point. Obviously if Andreas were able to claim, and hold, a place in the Gladbach side, it would be great but it's a bit unrealistic to expect him to. Too unrealistic I imagine to risk a loan there.

Yeah sorry. I mean op flight football, excluding cup competitions. We don't need any more loanees missing out on vital playing ime. Especially the young ones.

When i saw this rumour i instantly thought of Kalas and his time in Germany. Gladbach are the only German team I have an interest in & thus watch in the Bundesliga and you're right, he'll absolutely not walk into that team. It's a very special team and you have to have a very special character to play there, similarly to here under Mourinho. Perhaps that's why he could be going there.

Do Chelsea Know What They're Doing with Denmark's Andreas Christensen? | Bleacher Report (via http://ble.ac/teamstream-) http://teamstre.am/1IyqIp5

Good article. Really hope this guy can make it at Chelsea.

[Blue Colored Sky 1,807]

Pretty cool with 2 senior caps already, I have to say. And everyone that watched the games say that he was comfortable.

[ulvhedin 507]

anyone seen how he pperformed against Germany?

Gladbach still want Christensen, says Max Eberl. They have a strong defense. I fear the same situation Kalas had at Köln

[ProXima 11]

Paradoxically, defence is the worst Gladbach's formation (only 27 goals conceded in league last season) because we have only one nominal left-back and two players who can play there (but it's not their basic position) - one of them is a Dominguez (CB), rest players for CB: Stranzl (awesome defender, but old and often injured), Elvedi and Brouwers (I'm sure Andreas isn't worse than them). Also Dane can play as DM and Borussia have only three player for this position.

So I think he won't be a permanent member of first squad but should get plenty of minutes.

Its official:

[Blue Colored Sky 1,807]

Did I miss something about his contract renewal ? He has only one year to run.

Though I guess they indeed signed him and didn't announce it because I simply can't imagine otherwise, it's too much illogical for this to happen.

Good team, I hope he will get plenty of minutes but I thought they won't need him since they recently signed centre-back.

[Thendo 1,088]

Strange...Chelsea saying that the loan is for the 15/16 season only, but Borrusia claiming that its a two year loan deal?
