Feel this guy has the potential to do an Azpi. Work his socks off in training and take every opportunity given to him.

Maybe not this season and with the quality of our midfield, but his attitude is top class. I honestly think he will make it here.

The early indications are rather worrying for him. He hasn't made the matchday 18 squad in any of the matches so far. He should really take the loan to get playing time. After spending almost all of last season sidelined by injury, he needs regular football this season.

Good for him. He will get a lot of games at Milan. I'm confident he'll be an important player for us because Jose rates him and likes him very much.

He could obviously have done a job for us but we got ourselves into this in the first place with letting so many home based players leave.

The kid didn't want to go to Milan, but probably there weren't any better offers and being left out from the UCL squad list (someone posted it here, but Mourinho said yesterday in the PC that it's going to be a hard decision for him to make and one he'll make only one second before the deadline, so I don't think the squad list - or at least the final version - has been submitted yet).

It's better to play for Milan than not play at all, but I'm disappointed he was basically forced to go there...

tbh there's an easy solution and that was to not register Schwarzer. He could still be third choice as we would be entitle to an emergency keeper if Thiabut and Cech got injured at the same time.

Jose was referring the PL squad list. There are no "homegrown" and "foreign player" list in the UCL. There are "A lists" and "B list" with different criteria (such as "club trained" instead of "homegrown").

The UCL squad is usually more "exclusive" though I have no idea how we're doing in that regards, I think it is very likely that we'll leave players like Zouma out of it. But I am almost certain that we don't need to hand in the final list until after the end of the transfer window.

he should have joined Ajax (who wanted him at the time) instead of us in the first place, his own fault really

Money talks at the end of the day, I remember he was kinda forced into the Chelsea move when in actual fact he wanted to go to Ajax, I feel bad or him really

Not sure if Zouma will be left out unless we have no choice, the CL and COC is where the bulk of his games for now will be at.

I don't get it why we have to loan out every player we don't play right now.

We can not go through a 60+ games season with such a paperthin squad where we only have 4 central midfielder. This way we could not even play 4-3-3 regularly.

So the injury had nothing to do with this, then? That we bought Matic and played Luiz in there on a few occasions shows the manager realised pretty quick just how underwhelming Lampard- Mikel-Ramires-Essien were. Without that injury he could very well have made one spot his own.

He needs minutes so it's probably for the best. Oscar and Ake can fill in for injuries/suspensions. Hopefully next season we're shot of Mikel so he can come in. I really want him to make it here.

We almost always have to leave one or two players out of our CL squad list, and I don't think this year will be different. Too lazy to look over the rules again. But if we are going to leave someone out, the obvious choice would be Zouma.

Because it's stupid to keep a 21 year old midfielder who just came back from a major injury on the bench as the 5th midfielder. If he's not playing, he won't be much better as an emergency midfielder than someone like Lewis Baker who will at least play U21 consistently.
