Get a start this season? At this rate i hope we SIGN him this season. For a transfer that was aparently done in December this has taken a very very very long time to get finalised.

DavidEU 2,023 Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 Franco Di Santo, who bears Chelsea's number 9 shirt, was born in Mendoza, Mendoza Province, Argentina on the 7th April 1989. The young striker joined Chelsea from Audax Italiano of Chile on January 25th, 2008 and has been hailed as a new Hernáand Crespo.After impressing in the Chelsea reserves in the second half of the 2007/2008 season, including a hattrick against Spurs, Franco will be looking to push his way into a strikeforce including Drogba, Anelka, Shevchenko, Kalou and Pizarro.Discuss him here!

Milan 17,956 Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 Not only you. I think it was Riccy who nicknamed him Crespito. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DavidEU 2,023 Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 Very impressed, showed he can play amongst the big boys. From 45 minutes against a very poor Chinese team? I don't think so mate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aesthetic Relic 301 Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 With him scoring on his first team debut it'll give him a major confidence boost. He certainly has the makings over a very good striker. When he came on he was quite quiet, then BANG...hit the post, minutes later...BANG back of the net. I'd like to see him get a run in the first team this year instead of getting farmed out to some foreign team to get more experience. We've seen Sahar come into the team and fade, but this kid has something special about him. I can feel it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLion. 21,491 Posted July 23, 2008 Share Posted July 23, 2008 From 45 minutes against a very poor Chinese team? I don't think so mate. He didn't look overawed by playing alongside Lampard and co, and linked up very well with the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EskWeston 696 Posted July 24, 2008 Author Share Posted July 24, 2008 I thought he did very well in his first apperance for the first team, without showing what he can REALLY do. What really came through from him in the performance yesterday was his positional sense, he pulls into great positions to try and score and could have had more goals. He showed he can play with the first team. Next test for him is the Premier League, how will he play against their defences. So far though so good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was very good yesterday -and seems even bigger than last season. Scored in every game hes played , near enough ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The lad knows where the goal is thats for sure, 7 goals in 8 games for the reserves last season. 1 in 1 for the first team so far. He can be very very good, and playing first team football with us at 19 can only make him better. A very exciting prospect, also liked the look of Kalou and Anelka yesterday, maybe we can start seeing some production from our strikers this season....
