His final decision making was not very good yesterday. He has to improve, but it's understandable, as he's 19 years old and this is his first experience on professional level.

Do you think that Oscar,Willian and Costas final decision making are that much better?

Yep. Wilmots is known to pick up big talents very quickly.

Decision making is suspect, there's some aspects in his game that he has to work on, but his balance and dribbling skills is insane. I think he is as talented as Hazard.

If indeed age is just a number for Antonio Conte, then he'll be staying on a gold mine here at Chelsea - there's so much raw talent in that Academy (on loan players included).

It's true that many have been blooded in at a very young age, yet it also has become harder to get a look in with every young talent that has been added. I'm guessing that Musonda's chances to make his debut as a full international at EURO2016 are limited.

Normally, KDB is our number 10. And the other spot is between Praet and Musonda Jr. But Wilmots sees players like Fellaini and Defour as the number 10 too. Which is just plain stupid.

I saw the first thirty minutes and then the whole of the second half.

You are absolutely right of course and I'm glad that more considered assessments of Charlay's performances are coming to the fore. I like the lad very much and I'm hopeful for him but I felt that some of the opinions expressed in this thread recently were a bit over enthusiastic.

There was one impression I formed on Saturday evening that I was pleased about. Charlay wasn't dibbling into traffic as frequently as he had in his earlier games for Betis. If that is a sign of development, and not just a one-off, then this is real progress. If it is real, then it is a step away from the vanity of wanting to look like a star and toward becoming the cool and effective performer that professional coaches need. It would also represent good work by Betis and/or Paulo in helping him get a grip on that, and good sense by Charlay in taking lessons on board so quickly.

His decision making is fine. He's just a poor crosser at the moment.

Yes, Wilmots's solidity fetish is annoying ... expecting it to be reflected in his squad selection ... then the best Musonda and Praet can hope for is being included on the stand-by list. De Bruyne, Dembele, Fellaini, Nainggolan and Witsel are all nailed on ... Wilmots probably remains loyal to Chadli ... and is less likely to call up one of Defour, Kums or even Imbula (if he's eligible). To complete the squad: 3 GKs, 8 defenders ... Hazard, Mertens, Carrasco, Origi, Lukaku and Batshuayi (unless Benteke shows any sort of form) ... the likes of Mirallas, Bakkali, Musonda Jr., Januzaj, Lestienne, Imbula, Kums, Defour, Dendoncker, Praet, Tielemans, et al. will face tough competition and some have almost no chance (e.g. Januzaj having refused Scifo's call-up).

All Musonda needs to do at pre-season is impress conte if he can do that he might get into the Chelsea squad or the starting line up next season instead of being loaned out

Easier for us to say perhaps than it is for Charlay to do. In order to sell Conte, or whoever, the idea that he's good enough, Charlay has to actually be good enough and that is the hard part of course.
