lucio 5,418 Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 tammy is 100x better, and even he probably isnt good enough. no loss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clockwork 1,794 Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 Smart decision on his part, the fact Terry is still the only youth player to make it at Chelsea says more then enough. I believe this will become continuing trend for Acadamy graduates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fernando 6,585 Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 Disappointing because I liked him a lot. I think he's going to be a hit in Liverpool. And then we will blame the club for not doing enough to keep him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jenks6 3 Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 Chelsea give these lads a fantastic education up until the point that they need competitive football but then get no chances. Solanke letting his contract run out so that he can leave is a shrewd decision to make, and one that more lads in the academy will make if they know what's good for them. Also there's a lot of revisionism going on in this thread, Solanke has excelled as he's progressed through the age groups and was ahead of Abraham until their loans took them in different directions.

Duppy Conqueror 1,539 Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 Quote can`t really blame him..he`ll be closer to starting at Scumpool. and Klopp has a long record of starting players younger than we as a club have.i can`t wish him success,as I couldn`t wish Joe Cole success when he went there and he was "one of us" who also contributed alot more towards our success. I liked Solanke..seemed the ideal prospect in the past to be groomed into the longterm 1 upfront. but alas..great clubs lose good prospects a lot. .

King11Didier 916 Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 Interesting, no one value him, yet there is so much talk about his move away from the club. Personally, I thought he might get a sniff for first team action, had really good spell with our young side and didn't have as bad as some people here say, loan at Vitesse. Also it was his first and only loan, imo he should've been loaned out again this season. But I think he and his agent have really big hopes and want to settle somewhere for 1st team football or at least a lot more opportunities than Chelsea can give him, one of the few players who refuse to get into our loan system. But I don't believe pool is the right choice, yes, Klopp gives actually a lot of chances for youngsters, but a move to Celtic or even RB Leipzig would've been more beneficial for him, imo. nyikolajevics 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jenks6 3 Posted May 30, 2017 Share Posted May 30, 2017 7 goals in 26 games for a 19 year old in new country - much of that from the bench - is not the disaster that people are making it out to be. For a comparison, Harry Kane scored 5 in 18 at Leyton Orient, 9 in 27 at Millwall, 0 in 5 at Norwich City and 2 in 15 at Leicester City.

Just turned 18. So yeah not as bad as making people out but you still think with how highly rated he was, he would have set the league alight a bit more.

gadget 126 Posted June 11, 2017 Share Posted June 11, 2017 Been a given that Solanke is leaving since the start of the season. Wasn't too bothered about him leaving due to Tammy playing the way he has plus solanke hasn't been pulling up tree's in the England youth mid season. Ever since its knowledge he's going Liverpool, yes he's had a great u20 World Cup but the Liverpool loving media building him up to be a world beater is getting me worried we've cocked up massively here. Hope Tammy smashed the u21's tournament now and has another top season Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Obviously in this case Chelsea had no choice in where Dom moved on to, but the notion than we should insist a young lad accepts a transfer to a lower level that the one he is capable of gracing, is odd to say the least. We are not running a slave gang. These are people with ambitions and dreams. People who have entrusted Chelsea with the formative years of their careers. If Dom wants to try to breakthrough at Liverpool then good luck to the lad. Jenks6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
