Fulham Broadway 17,311 Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 I suppose time will tell on this point. Scolari is really the first one to seriously benefit from our new academy as it has taken time to get to this standard. Certainly more young players are involved regulary - Mancienne, Di Santo, Sinclair - and more recently Stoch. Which is an excellant start, the next stage is giving them game time! The question is can the players be patient enough? Good point -they will all want regular first team action, which is only natural. Which of these do you consider first team regulars ? Sinclair was bought for a couple of million?, with appearance fees on top from Bristol Rovers, Di santo was already established in South America, and Stoch was being courted allegedly by no less than 22 top clubs, since he had a ball attached to his feet at the age of 8. The four you mentioned all have first team regular potential imo. Mancienne we should play, and make sure we hang on to especially as he is completely home grown and potential full England squad centre back and captain ala Terry.

Joe Cool 388 Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 It looks like he could play against Boro. Not really sure if he can play well in the top flight without any experience :unsure: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

the wes 7,212 Posted January 3, 2009 Author Share Posted January 3, 2009 NEWCASTLE have failed in a bid to take Michael Mancienne on loan until the end of the season. Joe Kinnear wanted the talented centre-half, 20, to bolster his hapless defence but Chelsea have rejected the deal. They do not believe Mancienne, who unexpectedly broke into Fabio Capello’s England squad this season, will develop at St James’ Park. Blues boss Phil Scolari recalled Mancienne from a loan spell at Wolves and feels he will make the progress he needs working with Chelsea’s first-team squad.

BlueLion. 21,491 Posted January 4, 2009 Share Posted January 4, 2009 I don't believe Scolari's judgement is the correct one, though. I'd send him back to Wolves at the end of the month. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the wes 7,212 Posted February 15, 2009 Author Share Posted February 15, 2009 Aston Villa and Barcelona are chasing Chelsea defender Michael Mancienne. The England Under-21 international defender is out of contract next summer and is said to be frustrated at the lack of first- team opportunities at Stamford Bridge. Despite earning rave reviews on loan at Wolves, he knows John Terry, Ricardo Carvalho and Alex remain ahead of him at Chelsea — and he has yet to make his first- team bow.http://www.tribalfootball.com/aston-villa-...ancienne-227438 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kez 2,727 Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 Oh for god sake if a team like Barca is after him he's clearly worth keeping. Give him a new contract and get him in the team before we lose him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLion. 21,491 Posted February 15, 2009 Share Posted February 15, 2009 The fact it says 'he has yet to make his first-team bow' suggests that's a load of crap anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alee. 182 Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 MICK McCARTHY is lining up a Mancienne is Wolves target Mick McCARTHY is lining up a £4million bid for Chelsea defender Michael Mancienne as he prepares for the Premier League. McCarthy wants to bring the England under-21 star back to Wolves this summer. Mancienne impressed at Molineux on loan earlier this season and was recalled by Chelsea in January to challenge for a place at Stamford Bridge. But the 21-year-old has only made one league start under Guus Hiddink and McCarthy wants him to strengthen his newly-promoted side. £ 4m Bid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLion. 21,491 Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 Season long loan in the top flight maybe? Would be ideal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EskWeston 696 Posted April 21, 2009 Share Posted April 21, 2009 Season long loan in the top flight maybe? Would be ideal. I agree, depending on the situation here at Chelsea with regards to players comming and going, a season long loan in the Premiership would be fantastic for Michael. Infact in many ways it would be better for him than staying with us next season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SystemBlueBob 0 Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 http://thechelseablog.org/2009/04/24/real-...er-Chelsea-man/ Chelsea defender Michael Mancienne has featured a bit more for us this season and duly caught the eye of other Premier League clubs. However, despite Chelsea making it clear he’s going nowhere, that apparently hasn’t stopped Real Madrid keeping an eye on him. Rumour has it the Spanish club are considering trying to tempt him away from Stamford Bridge in the summer although hopefully will be sent packing in the same way other interested parties already have been. Mancienne might get a chance to play against Barcelona next week – albeit at left-back – with Ashley Cole suspended for our Champions League. And the suggestion is that Real will have their spies out again if Mancienne starts that game, even if it’s a case of they can look but not touch right now.

chrismada9 1,948 Posted April 25, 2009 Share Posted April 25, 2009 MICHAEL MANCIENNE has emerged as a shock target for Real Madrid. The Spanish giants are keeping tabs on Chelsea’s blossoming England defender and hope to cash in on his frustration at Stamford Bridge. He has played only two games in the Premier League since being hauled back from a loan spell with Wolves. A Madrid move for Mancienne could be triggered in June following their presidential elections. Ex-sporting director Jorge Valdano is tipped to rejoin the club if Florentino Perez is re-elected on June 14 — and Valdano is a huge Mancienne admirer. He has already sent scouts to check on the youngster’s progress. ------------------------------- http://www.thesun.co.uk/sol/homepage/sport...icle2395437.ece ------------------------------- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
