Well done to the lad.

If he does get a call up its make or break for us. If we intend to keep him we have to start playing him or he'll be off elsewhere.

[Laylabelle 9,328]

Good for him!Now when he comes back from loan lets get him playing cause if he does play in that game,Wenger prob come along in his Wenger bus and take him away.And be a case of 'o why did we let him go?!'

[Elliott 7]

We really need to get our shit together and get this lad in the first team.

[terry26 6]

well done him and i agree - if we wanna keep him we'll have to wake our case up

[.Cee 50]

Great for him and hopefully this will increase his chances of playing in the first team. With us and not on loan again, that is.

[Kez 2,727]

This just shows we NEED to keep the lad.

Well done to him though

This is a good thing for Mancienne!

I didn't even know he was playing for Wolves!! :mellow:

I would say sell Ferriera and get Mancienne back. Its high fucking time. I would be majorly pissed if we let him leave.

Also, Ivanovic dint impress me much today. Lacks pace, struggled today, lacks positioning(burnley goal), I dont think he would be any better than Mancienne if not bad, then why keep him?. Lets cash on him and get Mancienne back.

I disagree, in the two PL games he has started, against Villa and West Brom, I think he has looked brilliant, actually.

[terry26 6]

i agree - i think that he's coped well in the games that he's played

in regards to the England call up - after Theo Walcott are people really going nuts over the fact that he hasn't made a Prem League debut (at least people have seen him playing)

i hope he gets some game time and does well

Michael Mancienne has voiced his determination to one day break into the Chelsea first team. Mancienne, who is currently on loan at Wolverhampton Wanderers, has been named in Fabio Capello's 23-man England squad to face Germany on Wednesday.

The 20-year-old has made just three Championship starts for Wolves this season and was handed the surprise call-up ahead of a number of Premier League defenders.

Mancienne has yet to feature for his parent club Chelsea but is determined to return to Stamford Bridge in the future and emerge as a regular.

He said in The Sun: "Long-term I would like to go back there, because I have been with the club since I was a kid.

"I am at Wolves until the end of December and I don't know if the loan will be extended."

He added: "I want to make headlines because that shows I'm doing well.

"To go from Chelsea reserves to the top of the Championship with Wolves and to England is a massive thrill.

"I am thriving on the pressure playing first-team football brings and this is only inspiring me to work harder because these are just the first steps."

As far as i can see there are 2 options with us regarding Mancienne, as there was a lot of interest in Ivanovic over the summer if we can make a profit on him then we let him go and bring Mancienne in or come the January transfer window when Mancienne is back from his loan, we loan him to a premier league club - the latter is exactly what i think will happen, if we can do that and he gets regular first team football in the premier league then that will suit both Chelsea and Mancienne i think. The Championship is not where he needs to be now.

He more look like rio or carvalho style than terry he said

maybe he will be another Chelsea legend (with Chelsea since 8 years)

Sounds like a plan......

We would have to make some guarentees to him to ensure he wont be tempted elsewhere. The last thing we want is for his agent (if he has one) to start putting ideas into his head now that he is starting to get the recognition.

We should give him a new contract before we do that IMO. His current one has less than 2 years until it expires.

Bruce Buck has come out and said he expects Mancienne to be part of the first team soon.

A contract year usually runs till the end of the season, so that would leave him with a year left come July 1st I imagine. Needs done asap.
