Josh McEachran

[Santiago. 1,500]

Hopefully Mourinho develops him into a Legend just how he did to Lampard

And for those he say he will never be good enough, don't nearly watch him enough and to claim such an irrational statement.

Sorry boys, I just have a funny feeling this kid will not make Chelsea´s squad next season again. The club will buy a better player for the midfield in the summer.

[Hamilton 2,118]

KDB probably is allready ahead in the picking order??

[bushman 2,043]

KDB is way better, I feel. I believe Chelsea is buying 1 or 2 players to reinforce the midfield.

[Mufassir08 2,400]

The thing is KDB is also very good as a no#10 and a winger so we could fit him and josh in the same team aswell plus this season we are learning the hard way that you will win fuck all without having a strong squad,having options is always a good thing.

I don't get it. What's the point of writing him off already? Especially that he's one good game away from going from a lower PL team player to the next Iniesta.

In the past year, Bertrand has gone from being much worse than PVA and having no future here, to the next Ashley Cole and back to being shit and turning into the scapegoat whenever we lose.

Luckily the club's staff are not as fickle as us fans.

McEachran is more of a Ideal Central Midfielder whist KDB is more attacking and a winger

[bushman 2,043]

Nobody is writing him off. I just feel, he will not make it, next year. Then on the other hand anything can happen, who knows for sure.

If Chelsea aims to sing players like Falcao, Cavani, Fellaini, Paulino I do not see Josh around much.

Haha, you calling me a cunt!?

Look at Luiz. One of the nicest fellas in world football. Doesn't stop him from kneeing Rooney in the gut.

Even Mata has had a bit of a naughty streak recently, noticed a few dirty looks from his more often than not perfect head.

This is the same for many young players.

Lukaku can go from next Drogba to waste of money to next Drogba again in a few matches. (Well this one has been longer term really, the waste of money comments came around last season).

Bertrand as you said.

Romeu gone from being so good Barce may buy him back to pretty overrated(pre injury).

Sturridge from one of our best young talents to shït, now most people would take him back.

In reality they're all good, young players with the potential to become starters, if not already there.

Hope to see josh take lampards place eventually. wilshere and mceachran would be good for england too. Cleverly is just like Milner he offers very little and these two can be great for club and country.

[BowtiesAreCool 16]

So how has Josh played in his last few games? I really want to see him score goals now, he might never be a Lampard-esque scorer but adding goals to his game would make him freakin' deadly.

Dropped for the Middlesborough game..

Second game in a row. The manager is obviously not very happy with him..

[BowtiesAreCool 16]

Don't worry, Tony Mowbray just wants Josh to rest up for a bit - he's played a lot of games this season and recently isn't playing as good. A couple of games of rest and Josh will be back. Remember that he's not been a regular starter in any team until this season.

Wilshereis already a very decent player and so is Josh. The only difference between the two are experience and build in body. I have seen Josh play at The Bridge and he is class. If he was Brazillian and named Josh Echrandinho I garuntee most Chelsea fans would beg for him to start now. When he was given the chance as a sub for us under Carlo he was electric and I truly believe he should have been given more appearences to shine like Wilshere has been given at Arsenal. Unfortunately though he isn't Brazillian and named Eachrandinho so I doubt he will ever be a Chelsea starter or even a squad player in the future and the excuse will be that he isn't big enough or strong enough for the physicality of the PL. . . Cough.... Oscar......cough!

Are you kidding? He's been hyped up precisely because he is English.

I love the kid but he ain't Wilshere, and it's not just their bodies that are different. Wilshere has some bite and aggression that Josh simply doesn't have. He drifts out of games far too easily and let's the opposition walk over him at times, rather than imposing himself on games like he should. He's got phenomenal technique but he really needs to harden the fuck up.

Also, comparing him to Oscar is unfair. Oscar has shown he has some bite in his game and he's also got a far higher workrate than Josh. He's young so he still has time to develop his game and his body but I'm nowhere near as convinced as I was two years ago.
