Nathaniel Chalobah

Hopefully he gets a start on Wednesday vs the Hammers. 

So happy to see him playing for us and that Conte has taken a liking to him. 

Long may his progression as a serious CM option continue.

Yeah, today when I saw that I was thinking to myself that the first time I saw him playing for the first team was some years ago in pre-season as CB and he gave a horrible pass to the opponent  Totally different player now. Evolution is strong with this one.

He's always been quite skilful - if you ever watched youth football when Nate was there you'd have seen him do these type of things. It's why he got moved up from CB to CM. Not really a part of his game that's evolved. I feel like with Nate we're just scratching the surface here. Loving that he's getting game time under Antonio, looks like he has a future here.

I used to watch youth games now and then when I had Chelsea TV back in the day (still don't know how that was possible, it magically just was in telly). Not anymore, which is a shame.

I NEED to see more of him in the team!

Difference between him and RLC is that this guy is SO CM. Pure CM - strong, durable, with great work rate and solid technique and speed. And then it's so easy to adjust him. He is way more experienced as well.

With RLC, on the other side, God doesn't know which position he should play - loan him out so he can find himself and his role in team. I still think he is more naturally talented than Chalobah.

Keep it up N8!

RLC hasn't played CM since he bossed Maribor. He's played AM or recently Second Striker.

Oozes confidence. Great to see for a young player.

[Chelseabluerising 60]

Chalobah is brilliant love that he's had all these loans and now finding his feet here

I love RLC however he probably needs a loan, I still think bis best position is CM and he needs more game time to help him To fulfill his potential

Didn't know he used to be a ballboy at Chelsea as a kid, imagine going from that to playing against United for the first team. True blue.

Watching him do this was fuckin crazy. I want to see him with N'Golo for a few games. I think hes got the creativeness in him.

Just watch this double nutmag against Bailly and Martial. I love the lad

Chalobah at LCB.

Am I insane for thinking this is a viable option this year?

He did start off as a CB.

He seems to be doing alright at CM, and taking over from Mikel as the go to player to shore things up as well as being the immediate cover for Matic/Kante. Also as much as i am not a fan of Cahill and want him replaced in the long run the back 3 of Cahill, Luiz and Azpi has worked fairly well.

[Unionjack 7,531]

I think ther lad will make an importa nt part in our future. Well I really hope so anyway.

Heres a goal he scored while training with England 1st team today
