I was reading that he is rated the highest CB in South America. Not really sure what that means…potential or current performance? 
 

 

Yeah, there is only so much of the Disaster Bros (Disaster and Tosin) we can watch. I think it is clear that the club were thinking of having him out on loan for the year but as he will likely walk into the team here if he is half decent, he may as well come back. Hopefully Disaster is shipped out. He isn't even squad filler level.

If he cant get a game ahead of Disasi or Tosin then we should be seriously worried. He may be a bit raw and physically not that well developed but surely cant be as bad as those two. 

The worst of it is I think Tosin is worse than Disasi - which I thought was near impossible. Fulham can have him back for free.

Disaster is one of the worst players I have seen down Chelsea in my 35 years+ of going. Tosin isn't great and at very best should be a CB4/5 type that only players dead rubber/lower ranked teams and in an emergency. However, he is nowhere near Disaster bad, even if I do call them them the Disaster Bros as a collective. 

As for Anselmino, let's see how things go. Really it would be good to see him at the weekend but that may be a bit too soon as he has just arrived.

agree

Tosin is nowhere near as poor a player as Disasi

and Tosin is hardly a great CB

Should have stayed in Boca to play regularly and CWC. What was the point of bringing him in January?

Absolute mystery. Hoping he can pull an Ivanovic where he sits around for months/a year then takes his chance and doesn't look back.

This is the the problem with stock piling young talent, whether they go out on loan or stay around....Both forks in the road and they can fall off a cliff, and it will continue to keep happening and 95% will either not feature at all or get a very small sniff and be gone as quick as they came.

It's like pinning the tail on the donkey

Lets be honest, probably another one the so called twitter experts got a hard on for because he played 15 games in South America.

Wouldn’t be surprised if he ends up being gash/shipped out/sold for profit. Kendry Paez will be the same.

I was shocked the CB lad didnt get tried at all when we were relying on shit like Disasi and Tosin due to injuries/suspensions. I’d of gotten it if it were like 5+ years ago with the old regime as we were notoriously bad for not using youngsters/solely going for tried and tested but didn’t understand it then and even now in CWC.

Did he even play for the u23/reserves or whatever they go by now?

Oh god forgot we are good at recruiting injured players 😂

Ah well explains that then. But yeah if he isn’t loaned to get regular minutes or involved at all this season, as someone who is 20 years old and needing exposure, I don’t know what to expect…

This is what happens when you stockpile talent without a plan....

Better to focus on quality than trying to sign 10 random south american youngsters and hope that one of them pans out for a nice profit.  😆
