Josh McEachran

[Joshyboy 36]

This is exactly what he needs but sadly even when he gets back regardless of how well hes done I still dont think hes going to get many chances and will probably be farmed out of loan again but thats the best thing for him by the looks of it, so lets hope he can make the most of it! I've got faithhhhhhh

Gotta perform at Swansea now and hopefully another full year next year at another prem team and then he should be ready for Chelsea.

I don't believe so. Sturridge shined on loan and André took notice.

Mceachran is far away from a regular Spot in our first team. he should've been loaned out right at the beginning of the season

He was, but shouldn't of been. I think AVB was in 2 minds when he joined, he openly plauded his talent and probably saw the rustiness in our midfield - If meireles did flop I reckon he'd of had far more chances. Nevertheless, it doesn't negate his lack of playing time. I think most of us are still quite bemused at it tbh. If we just promote some of our youths...

Thats the problem when you change your manager like women change clothes

Good luck to wee josh, hope he gets plenty of playing time and flourishes under brendan who he knows and who knows him. Fingers crossed

its so good for him and for Chelsea that he's gone to Swansea... it seems like a great school and i bet he'll return to Chelsea as a world class player.

Josh on twitter: Great win for Swansea!! Looking forward to join the team on tuesday!!

he might not find it that easy to break into their starting team

Their midfield is quite covered, but that's not bad.

If Josh has a super loan spell and AVB gives him a chance to start with us, who would he replace? A midfield of (assuming we buy a LW)

I don't think he'd replace anyone for him, he'd just get more appearances. As a sub or as a starter, it would make sense to come on for Lampard or Meireles, provided we don't add to our midfield in the summer.

IMO Josh would need to start, just look at Sturridge, he proved himself at Bolton and now is a key player and Josh could be the same, He has the potential to be better than anyone in our midfield

Yes, he has the potential... a potential that Sturridge is fulfilling at the age of 22 (started at 21 in Bolton on loan). Looking at what Emenalo said about Lukaku (that they don't want to throw them in deep end too soon and destroy them before they get going), I think next season will be more about grooming him while not making him a key player.

Yeah, I was watching the Arsenal - Swansea. His competition Britton and Allen were great and were always on the same wavelength. It won't be easy for Josh, I doubt he'll get much starts if any, but 10-15 sub appearances are likely.
