Miroslav Stoch

Born 19/10/89 in Nitra, Slovakia.

A Slovakian junior international regular who made his debut at Under 21 level last season, Miroslav joined Chelsea in the summer of 2006 and signed professional a year later.

Accomplished with either foot and with a low centre of gravity, he can play as a second striker or out wide in a front three and enjoys taking defenders on and shooting.

He was the youth team's top scorer in the 2006/07 campaign with nine goals from 20+6 appearance as well as two after breaking into the reserves.

Last season he managed two reserve goals again, from 10+3 games while in the youth team his 10 goals from 14 games were the second best tally. An FA Youth Cup ever-present.

This year Miroslav has made the step up to be a regular part of first team training sessions, and made his debut as a late sub in the 2-1 defeat to Arsenal at Stamford Bridge.

He was outstanding when he came on against Stoke! A sign of things to come from him

[BlueLion. 21,491]

Stoch is insanely fast, and yesterday's little cameo demonstrated he has the potential to be a star. Can't wait to see him play more often.

We have to play him more. Its time now really to give Stoch, Sinclair (hes on loan i know but hopefully its his last loan, hes better than malouda) and Kakuta a chance. Look at villa, they have been outstanding this season because they use youth and hunger. Surely its bout time we used these guys, even in the Carling Cup and FA Cup. Ipswich on Saturday, why not?

Couldn't agree more with you dude!

[Laylabelle 9,534]

Considering the situation they were thrown into and the fact he responded so well defo play him more.Had desire etc and great performance

[chrismada9 1,948]

And desire like that earns you a place in the squad as far as I'm concerned. Anyone who has no pride playing for Chelsea, they know where the door is.

It's big, it's blue, and there's a sign on it saying "FUCK OFF!"

[chelsea_4_eva 1,180]

Stoch's cameo was really good too see him and gael kakuta should start the next game.

His Crossing is NEAT!!!...specially the last cross was great, which ultimately lead to the goal.

Thats one of Stoch's great strengths is that he can put an excellant ball into the box. It will be good to see him given more chances now, but at the same time it would be silly to build expectations of him up too high because people will be too quick to knock him down if he has an off game.

Wish it was him that scored the winner last saturday, i was right behind the shed end goal when he hit that shot straight at the keeper, shame it didnt go in.

It was a shame, but the fact he made the room to shoot shows enough of his ability to know he will be a threat in any game he plays in. He will score goals if given the oppertunity, and set up plenty for others too.

Couple more energetic youngters would work wonders -like Yernited have done, and bring the combination of experience and yoof
