Marco van Ginkel

[Mouri_Matic 560]

Chelsea career over? CDM is never gonna be rotated and if he wants to be starter eventually, he would be disappointed. Matic and Ramires will play all the time now, well 85% of the time anyway. Hope if we sell him in the future we include a buy back clause because he could be the next Matic.

Like the post above, definitely Ramires will be in CM slot.

There are only 2 slots for CM, considering we spent so much money to bring back Matic, defintely he will slot in into CM (to allow Ramires to attack).

van Ginkel is likely to rotate with Ramires.

As of Romeu.... most likely a backup? I really do not see a role for him unless he impressed himself at Valencia or some other clubs.

Great but is he practising diving ,

Intriguing to see what kind of role he will play next season - Frank will be gone (or even a coach? ), Essien's gone, and there still could be the outing of Mikel also. With him, Matic and Romeu (??) battling it out for the placement alongside Rambo, would be nice to see which one plays best alongside him

I don't think Romeu will be much competition for Matic.

Don't think that his main role is a DM. More of a rambo player than a matic/romeu player.

I don't know why but I'd love to see a pivot of MVG and Matic, something about just seems really appealing to me.

I see him in a DLP kind of role, with potential for strolling forward. Would also agree with the idea that Romeu might not be grand for the team, but has an equal to array of talent which can be nurtured and turned to offer different styling in a position which could be tactically decisive in games/matches.

Good to see his recovery is going well.

Anybody else think he will go on loan next year? I suspect that he will only because of what Romeu said in the summer before he left for Valencia:

"But he [Mourinho] insisted that after a serious injury and at 21 years of age, I needed to be playing lots of games. He said that it would be difficult at Chelsea and it would be better to go to a team that can guarantee me more minutes.”

Obviously every players situation isn't the same and Mouinho might not have rated Oriol in the same way he does MVG.

I suspect that Romeu will want to stay in Spain, so I Marco will most likely stay if that happens.

Great news:

[Milan 17,835]

Great news:

I saw Marco's quote saying that everything is going really well and even the doctors say that his recovery is superquick, which is quite rare.

His age, thankfully, plays a role. An CL injury at 21 is completely different from one at 28, for example.

Would this injury have any long term issues? like losing a yard of pace, more frequent injuries etc

without a doubt... how much though? that's the $$ question.

Like Choulo said, being 21 does play a big part and I've seen many young players fully recover from ACL.

Hope he stays. If lampard leaves and we sign someone then his Chelsea career is as good as over.
