Youri Tielemans


 Share

Recommended Posts

True, but he's 17 and he's a unique talent who like I said will be able to handle top flight football in 2 years or less. The main thing he is missing is experience. He's a bigger prospect than Lukaku and Kompany were at this point. Lukaku was a big star due to his goal scoring and physical abilities but his positional awareness and technique weren't at the same level.

For me he's as big of a prospect as there has been in Belgium for the last 20 years and that includes Hazard.

I do like the look of him and hope Chelsea get him, however I'm not convinced that he can start for "any side" when he is 19-20 years old. However, stranger things have happened! Just look at Varane.

Anthony Vanden Borre rates him better than kompany

‘Youri I regard as my younger brother,’ he told Het Niewusblad. ‘We talk every day, he always comes to me. It's good that I can tell him what he should not do. He's even stronger than Vincent Kompany at that age.

I've got the chance to catch like 3/4 Anderlecht games and I must say my earlier comment on how he'd never go for more than £20m is completely off, guy is an absolute talent even at 17. He has it all to become one of the greatest midfielders in his generation.

I'd much prefer the club to put its faith in Ruben Loftus-Cheek, and work to build his future, rather than chase Tielmans. I'm the first to admit that RLC needs a lot of polishing but it can be done. Talent wise, Ruben is, in my opinion, the better of the two. We've just got to help him learn to express that talent more effectively and more consistently. I want to see every ounce of effort put into developing RLC before we consider signing an alternative.

If we were talking about a first team ready option then that might be a tougher choice but Tielmans is not first team ready in my opinion, he's a project and I'd rather stick with the project we already have.

Why not both? Lol

We all know Tielemans is one of the, if not the biggest prospect in European football at the moment! Why not make a bid?
