But this does make sense. A talented young player going to the lower levelled club to see how he gets on and if it  turns out he is an awesome player, he gets promoted to the main club..Chelsea. In the meantime, can we buy a fucking striker for Chelsea now please.. thank you.

Maybe this is the plan, maybe we bought the youth first knowing full well feeder clubs were coming into play, who knows at this point.

That could be a possibility and I have no doubt that some of these guys like Madueke, Mudryk and Jackson have the talent but they definitely aren't ready to play here.. they need to have gone the Strasbourg route first even though you could argue they played for bugger clubs already.. which then leaves you doubting if they are good enough at all. Who knows... but what we do know is that it's abit of a mess and it needs sorting out.

More proof Matt Law has lost his sources at the club

Been secluded for a while now Matt Law, you can tell that, as his tone and Tweets changed months ago.

I'm all for it.. the lad looks proper. We need him tbh considering the state of Disasi and injury prone Badiashille. 

[Magic Lamps 11,692]

is he really better than the Romanian fella spuds snapped up for pennies?

i am through with young players at this point. 
 

recently came across a full match video of the 2007 league cup final where we had that badass makelele, essien, lamps, Ballack midfield. Our 1st choice fullbacks were injured so we played lass and bridgey, Terry got a nasty head injury. We played vs a young arsenal side with lots of mediocre players I already had forgotten about. Alliadiere, denilson, hoyte. Also 17 yo Theo Walcott scored the first goal. Still we never looked fuzzed at any time. 2 Drogba goals (great Ballack assist for the 1st, arjen Robben cross for the 2nd) later we walked away with the trophy without ever really breaking a sweat. (Lamps hit the crossbar with a great shot from 30m, so unlucky in how many finals he hit the crossbar, CL final 08, club World Cup final 12 and el final 13 too) 

 

Point this moment we are basically aspiring to become wengers post 04 arsenal. Full of young, inexperienced players who might even be full of desire and energy (obv not Caicedo) . We might even turn up for that possible league cup final vs Liverpool , we might even score the first goal and dominate possession like arse did vs us in 2007. but pool will sure as hell just see us off with their experience without even trying too hard. They know they have this in the bag. 

arsenal had a project back then too. Bought so many promising players, formed a team, even had a decent manager. What did they win? Zilch. Many will not know or remember most of their young players from that time. They all had world class potential but in the end never won anything and returned to their local leagues at the end of their disappointing careers. The exact same thing will happen to our current generation of players.

That is why no player under 25 no matter how talented on paper will get me excited one bit at this point

Least he is a top prospect unlike a lot of the scrubs we've been buying. Get rid of Disasi, guy should be playing with Leicester to promote.

That would be a good sell if it where to happen.
