Jase 43,479 Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 He's a cross between Lampard and Gerrard and Dutchman Van Ginkel is looking to make a flying start at ChelseaMourinho also spoke about van Ginkel in the article and judging by his comments, sounds like he's going to play him a lot this season. xPetrCechx, Barbara and Bir_CFC 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bir_CFC 3,455 Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 I really hope he does well. It'd be nice just to finally see a fresh face in the midfield. I had my doubts with him because the jump from the Eridivisie to PL is a huge one but his perfomance against Real was pleasantly surprising. Sure one match is never indicative of how he'll perform through the course of an entire season but it def got me excited about his role in the team.

Vybz Kartel 1,613 Posted August 16, 2013 Share Posted August 16, 2013 His played really well in pre season would be totally unfair if he does not start on Sunday with Rami, Lampard in my view is not yet fit enough to start Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLyon 9,359 Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 He is way too young to be leader ala Lampard, Ballack etc, but at the moment Strootman is that guy in NT.If we didnt want De Rossi, why we never made offer for Strootman instead? Ginkel still looks very raw and too young to lead midfield. He is not solution for our midfield this season (hope Im wrong) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ginkel still looks very raw and too young to lead midfield. He is not solution for our midfield this season (hope Im wrong)I don't think a single person is even expecting him to be a leader. As far as Strootman goes, I haven't watched him enough except in the the U21 Euros and he didn't impress me much at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Skipper 20,609 Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 Like I said before, many will be surprised at the maturity he shows at his age. Pleasantly surprised that Mourinho will give him a lot of chances this season but he definitely has the talent to take them.

Barbara 15,149 Posted August 17, 2013 Share Posted August 17, 2013 “I want to learn from Frank Lampard. He plays in my position and has been in this team for years. He’s a legend for the club and to play with him and learn from his experience will be very good for me.”- Marco van Ginkel bluesman2610 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluesman2610 1,417 Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 browsing through match thread and seen a few ppl who believe MVG is not ready to play in PL.. wanted to know if this a something many people feel or just a few? I thought yesterday when he came in he was very tidy in possession Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meetdoscar 335 Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 He hasn't played much to be able to tell and not in his position anyway but he has good technique and is physically strong. Good addition to our squad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Styles 9,790 Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 Bet he regrets making the move. 15 minutes of football in the previous two games and sat in the stands today watching a 35 year old play his third game in just over a week.Wouldn't be surprised if he heads out on loan at the last minute.

OneMoSalah 8,886 Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 Raging that Lampard has played more or less 270 minutes of football in the last week and a bit. Hes got to be managed carefully I thought, not overplayed in games where hes not going to be effective (United and Villa) where there's going to be a lot of pressure on our midfield. Marco needs some games, we should have played him against Hull and Villa maybe not United but certainly against Hull and Villa.

Styles 9,790 Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 Van Ginkel wanted Ajax movePosted by admin on August 15th, 2013The 20 year old signed a five year deal with the English Premier League side this summer, but Ajax were the player’s first choice according to the players agent. He also stated that the Eredivisie champions were willing to offer around the €9 million that Chelsea signed the player for.Rob Jansen told BNR, ”In terms of Dutch football and the new structure of Ajax, they went to a great deal of money. The player just wanted to join Ajax, not even to another club.”Van Ginkel should have been strong and pushed for Ajax. He would have Champions League football and a real chance of 2014 World Cup.We already had plenty of young midfielders to waste in the youth team. There was no reason to spend 9m for another one.
