We would have stood in the way of both the latter two had they not acted up the way they did. in fact, we did just that with Hazard. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps but if Real agreed a deal we would of let Eden go 100%. If the deal suits the club any player is available in all honesty. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLyon 9,359 Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 This situation is everything that is wrong with the club. Not trusting youth, not giving chances, slow in handling the deals, always waiting for the last minute. I get City didnt play Sancho, but they had top players on wings. We have jack shit and Odoi still doesnt get a sniff. But IMO its not even about playing time. Its about trust. Odoi is our biggest talent and I havent seen one bit of club doing anything to show any faith in him. Buying players like Pulisic,...sure a good player, but what does it tell Odoi? Big middle finger. Odoi knows club will always prefer shit out of form Willian compared to him. And they will always buy foreign players that will get instant privilege ahead of Odoi. Odoi might get a game or two, but regardless how he plays, he will sit next game because his name isnt Willian. If he leaves, I totaly understand. Hopefuly he stays, but move to a club with trust in youth might give massive boost to his career. I dont blame Odoi, but the board. Fucking pathetic. killer1257 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLyon 9,359 Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 Also I find it hilarious that Sarri keeps saying "we are short on options, Odoi injured etc" Pointing at Odoi injury in every interview. Just how convenient that Odoi got injured and suddenly we are out of depth. As if pre injury he was always playing or in plans, right? How many games he didnt even make the bench and wasnt injured? killer1257 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneMoSalah 8,886 Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 I get the outrage about him not getting a chance here but hes hardly going to waltz into Bayerns starting 11 in the next 18 months either. Or Juventus' 11. He has huge potential obviously but you would think this guy is prime Messi reading some posts. It is a shame after a promising pre-season he doesnt get more of a look in but such is our record with youth I am genuinely surprised anybody is shocked. The game against Watford he was poor, timid... he played better last season under Conte in the game time he got, looked more confident too. Further proof he can still improve here rather than Bayern. I think his minds made up though. robsblubot 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless of how much he has or hasn't played, he has been a member of the first team squad since the start of the season so obviously if he's injured it will be reported.

Magic Lamps 11,692 Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 We can easily outprice Bayern and Juventus. If wr offer him the better package he would be mad to leave everything behind for worse conditions. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We obviously don't want to lose him, it's now up to him if he wants to leave. That bloody Sancho is the worse thing that happened to aid this situation. Little twat. Reiss Nelson too.

I think his minds made up though. I honestly do NOT get the the outrage about him no getting minutes. OK maybe there is a point about Cups, but not PL. He's 18 and not nearly at the level of the senior players at a club like Chelsea. If he has indeed already agreed with Bayern and is not going to sign an extension, then do NOT sell him. Drop him to the youth team and let him rot there for an year and a half. Sometimes it's more important to show to the other players and the next CHOs that the club can play hardball. There are a lot of players at his age that show as much potential as he does, or more. The development from now on will determine what he will do in football... forcing an exit at 18 is definitely NOT a good start.

It's interesting to know if he is really forcing a move away or has expressed frustrstion about the lack of minutes he is getting. I just can't see him being too big for his boots, especially after an interview post victory win against POAK. He scored and assisted one saying, "I had to pinch myself, it was a dream come true. To do this for my boyhood club". He obviously wants to play but I don't think this one is over yet. The journo breaking all the news in relation to Byern is Hogstein... he must be a Byern agent or some shit.

Laylabelle 9,535 Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 Yeah he did seem humble and grateful. If somewhere else is willing to definitely give minutes then can't blame him for having head turned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he stays now in many ways he becomes a £40m player, which will put a bit more onus in him getting squad player minutes minimum, something i imagine him and especially his agent are aware off.

Vesper 30,190 Posted January 4, 2019 Share Posted January 4, 2019 Chelsea appear to be close to making their worst mistake in years https://www.footballtransfertavern.com/premier-league/chelsea-appear-to-be-close-to-making-their-worst-mistake-in-years/ Chelsea have let so many top talents go in recent years, and another appears to be edging closer to the exit. Callum Hudson-Odoi is apparently increasingly likely to join Bayern Munich, according to Sky Germany, with the Blues – likely against their will – running out of options. However, the Blues need to consider just how much of a poor decision this would been. They’ve had great young players before, but it’s been a while since a youngster as talented as Callum Hudson-Odoi has been on the scene. The attacker looked right at home in the Chelsea squad over the summer, owing to his incredible pace, energy and dribbling, and given the poor form of Willian, in particular, it’s a travesty that he hasn’t had a proper chance this season. snip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kellzfresh 7,229 Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 Cant we be creative in our deals? If it is possible we should give him a deal obligating us to start him in almost half of the remaining premier league games this season. There's no way he'll reject that.

Vesper 30,190 Posted January 5, 2019 Share Posted January 5, 2019 We need young players, says Bayern coach Kovac https://www.afp.com/en/news/3955/we-need-young-players-says-bayern-coach-kovac-doc-1bz6i74 Bayern Munich coach Niko Kovac admitted Saturday his team needed "young players", amid speculation the German champions have launched a 33-million-euro bid for Chelsea teenager Callum Hudson-Odoi. Kovac, speaking at Bayern's annual winter training camp in Qatar, refused to confirm or deny the club's interest in the 18-year-old English star but conceded changes were needed. "We always need young players," said Kovac. "It is my job and the job of (Bayern Munich sporting director) Hasan Salihamidzic to change the team as the team does not get any younger." He added: "If a player is good it doesn't matter how old he is. "We are looking for younger talented players but also players who are ready because the young talented players need time to develop." Chelsea assistant coach Gianfranco Zola has said Bayern are "very interested" in the teenager, whose has been with the Londoners since 2007 but is stalling on a new contract. Hudson-Odoi is seen as a potential rising star of the English game and was a member of the England Under-17 team which won the World Cup in 2017. But it is claimed he wants to play more -- he has only played three times for Chelsea's first team -- and may be persuaded by the example of another young English winger Jadon Sancho who is thriving at Bundesliga league leaders Dortmund since deciding to leave Manchester City. Under-pressure Kovac needs to reinvigorate Bayern and replace many of the team's long-standing stars who are approaching the end of their careers. Two of those players, Arjen Robben and Franck Ribery, have announced they will finish their careers at the end of this season. Bayern currently stand second in the Bundesliga, six points behind Dortmund. The club, which is sponsored by Qatar Airways, will be in the Gulf until January 10. snip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
