Ancelotti to promote youth players

[Badboy 1,526]

I think fabio borini is a fantastic young striker. He has the ability to make the first team in my opinion, kakuta will make it no probs and i think we have a good set of kids at the club.

Although we havent finished the job of yet this season I am already looking forward to next season after hearing this from Carlo. I am looking forward to seeing of the youngsters come through next season, BUT we must not expect miracles from them straight away. I think we must prepare ourselves for the possibility of not having the same success as we have had in recent years (mainly since Wenger has been lowering the average age of the arsenal team). There is no doubting Kakuta, Stochs, Bruma's and the likes talent but that is not to say that we are going to win the league or champions league straight away.

Blooding them in gradually is going to be the best way, putting them in the team with seasoned pros such as Frank, JT, Ash, DD, and the likes will help there development. I just hope that our expectations after this season will not put extra pressure on these young players and make it show on the pitch. They have done well to get where they are and hopefully they will help us to gain more glory in the years to come.

We can't just loan the same players for like 5 years ... it's not normal. I think Di Santo got his chance in Blackburn and didn't use it so I would sell him for around 5 mil €. I would sell Sinclair too because I think we have better young players and he had his chance 1 year ago. I would loan out Borini who is to young for our first squad and a loan would do him good. I would also loan PVA and keep Bertrand who is much better and more experienced. And then I would loan Hutchinson and Bruma too.

To sum up ...

SELL : Di Santo, Sinclair

LOAN OUT : Bruma, Hutchinson. Patrick Van Aanholt, Borini and maybe Cork

KEEP : Mancienne, Rajkovič, Matič, Sturridge, Stoch, Kakuta

Gael Kakuta needs to be in the first team, probably starting 11 if we don't sign anyone new.

Chelsea boss Carlo Ancelotti has given a hint that there will be a major overhaul of his team this summer, and says that five promising youngsters will be promoted to the Chelsea first team squad for next season.

There has been a ban on talking to players about extending their contracts until the end of the season, but Ancelotti says there is no rush to finish negotiations.

“We are involved in very important competitions and we will take the decision after that.” Ancelotti said. “We have time because the season will finish May 15, and we will start in July, so we have May and June to take decisions about players without contracts, It does not depend on winning the league.

“The only sure thing is that next year there will be five players from the Academy in the squad because they deserve to be.

“Some players maybe will move, because we want to give strength to our Academy, we have very good young players and it is the time to put them in the squad for next year, they are able to stay in the Chelsea squad.”

It is thought that four of those players are guaranteed to be Gael Kakuta, Jeffrey Bruma, Nemanja Matic and Fabio Borini, who have all impressed Ancelotti this season.

The Italian coach was then asked if the Chelsea fans would be unhappy if they don’t sign any big name players this summer. “I think the fans will be happy if the team wins the title and the FA Cup. After that they will see some new players in the future. The most important thing is they don’t need to see a new coach!”

If we win the Double I don’t think Ancelotti need worry on that score!

Five academy players will be in the squad next season, like the article i can only think of kakuta borini matic and bruma. Borini is a weird one because i think he needs another season, so i think it could be jack cork !

[CFC58 22]

Miroslav Stoch is one I assume.

[EskWeston 696]

Some of the players involved this season could well be on loan next season, Borini, Bruma, Van Aanholt...... so it is not clear which players it will be. I would think that Stoch and Kakuta are very likely to be involved though,

[DavidEU 2,023]

They'll all have the Crystal Palace friendly to impress as the first teamers will all be on holidays.

[Badboy 1,526]

Oh yes i forgot about stoch defo one i want in the first team next season. He has proven me wrong and i really like him as an out and out winger, I think all we need this summer is a 24 25 26 year old striker with pace and ability thats all. The wide positions are covered with the additions of kakuta and stoch. Matic in the midfield, and i think kaby in the 2011-2012 season can come in handy because of his energy in midfield.

[Badboy 1,526]

Im getting really excited with these young players coming through. Some of them like kakuta stoch and bruma have fantastic attributes that can help us next season.

Kakuta's vision shooting and dribbling ability !

Stoch's Pace and crossing ability and dribble ability

bruma's very dutch in the way he controls the football !

They have real ability i also really like borini he is a work horse plus he can finish !

[Lloydy-21 1]

Hutchinson? Or is he already deemed a senior player?

Hutchinson? Or is he already deemed a senior player?

was about to ask the same

[warnie_666 1,081]

Borini wont get a look in. More destined for loan move. We already have Drogba, Anelka, Kalou, Sturridge and talks going on over Aguero.

Bruma is defo going to be our 4th Defender.

Hutchinson our RB in place of Ferriera.

Matic in place of Ballack.

Cork or Mancienne for Belleti.

Stoch on the Right Wing.

Kakuta for Deco.

I think Hutchinson is already considered in first team squad as he has been with them whenever he is not injured.

[5354 204]

Mancienne, Hutchingson, Stoch, Matic, Sturridge?

I am suggesting Borini to go out for loan.

Next season we can probably off load di Santo and Sinclair.

[Alee. 182]

Do Sturridge and Hutchinson already count as "first team" players?

Would love to see Kakuta, Stoch, Borini.
