This guy looks amazing, very excited about him. @OhForAGreavsie what is your opinion, you probably watched him live many times?

Oddly enough me and another Chelsea obsessed long term fan were discussing Cesare during the CFCW Champions League tie with Real Madrid. This 'youngster' has been watching The Blues since 1964 which is longer than even me. 🙂 We watch Chelsea Academy & CFCW games together, but we've never sat together at a CFCM match. Unlike me he went to the EFL Trophy game at Peterborough.

When I brought up Cesare and said that I didn't think he was ready, my friend immediately agreed. The young Italian is progressing but, for me, lacks finesse in some parts of his game. He works hard and fully commits to the physical side but I think he needs a loan to test and sharpen the way he manipulates and uses the ball. I think that a Premier League loan would be pointless, he wouldn't get minutes but, if a Championship or even League One team can offer him game time, that would be the next logical step.

I've watched them a bit (due to living in close proximity) and Plymouth would be a good move for him.

Likewise for Slonina if they lose their keeper (in my opinion a PL level keeper already) in January.

Oddly enough I was hoping CFC Dev would draw Plymouth. Would be nice to watch them down there.

Michael Cooper?

Yep.

I doubted my assessment after the summer when he stayed at Plymouth (a bit like @OhForAGreavsiewith his Havertz thoughts once Real etc passed on him I felt there must have been something I'm missing if no one even in the Champ is snapping him up) but after watching this season (and speaking to their fans) I'm even more convinced. Plymouth wouldn't even be in the play offs without him let alone top.

I like his distribution a lot aswell, unfortunately a lot of times the Argyle players aren't clever enough to read what he's going to do but I think he will have a lot of fun with PL level movement infront of him.

Paul Ince lauds Chelsea loanee Cesare Casadei’s debut performance for Reading

https://astamfordbridgetoofar.com/2023/02/paul-ince-Chelsea-cesare-casadei/

Paul Ince was full of praise for Chelsea loanee Cesare Casadei, believing that he still has a lot of room for growth when he made his debut in Reading’s 2-2 draw with Watford.

After making 13 appearances for Chelsea U21 and scoring five goals and one assist, Casadei joined the Championship team.

The Royals are now 16th in the Championship table, making it appear difficult for them to get promoted to the Premier League.

And because of his excellence, he joined Reading, where he can become a competent midfielder, and under Paul Ince, the Italian could learn a lot at the club and become an exciting prodigy.

He has a knack of scoring from Midfield he might be the perfect partner to Enzo in the middle or as a part of midfield 3.. his talent is scary

that was a great strike, wow

Italy vs Brazil u20's

Andrey Santos vs Casadei (both team captains) 

Casadei stole the show with 2 goals, 1 assist and won a penalty. Looks like we might have a gem on our hands.
