Josh McEachran

@, for players to have patience, they should have some sort of motivation, because lets face it, not everyone is like Ryan. Josh for example had two very good games in the pre-season and gave two assists but was not given another chance later. What kind of message does that send out to him? I hope he gets some minutes tomorrow, although I believe it is highly unlikely.

We wouldn't be Chelsea if a 19 year old could walk into our starting 11

Ray Wilkins was our captain at 19 ....different days ,,,we got relegated and were broke .

Best loan for Josh would be somewhere in Spain but we all know how fucking stupid the board is to realize that and try strike up a link with a decent enough Spanish team.... unrealistic though still but would be better than the Championship/PL imo.

josh josh josh, i agree with KOF that he has to make it in pivot role because mata, hazard, oscar, kdb,piazon, marin just wayy too good.

and i ony suspect kdb will be a pivot player....so thats one hell of a crowded attack AND all young so they wont be goin anywhere.

feel for him because he has all this hype and club isn't makin it any easier for him to break through.

a future mid core of- 7 players includin josh.......ouch all we can do is pray he has some sturridge like loan in near future. also as a side point im a bit angry too....cuz i look at arenal....jack wilshere and josh could have been our wilshere (except injuries) if we learned to give youngesters a chance.

He could of been our Wilshere? So secretly failing a drugs test and being out for like 2 seasons (will probably happen tbh).

Na I agree if we'd played Josh last season he'd have a hell of alot more experience and would have turned out better.

I hope he doesn't become our Wilshere. I could stand seeing this every week:

What puzzles me is why mereiles and essien can play and he is not even considered in our freindly games!

We should loan him out to a PL club so he can get 20-30 games and if not to a championship team that plays attacking football like blackpool or brighton!

Essien and Meireles put themselves about and have plenty of experience compared to Josh.

Anyway under AVB Josh played good in those Carling Cup games. AVB's philosophy seemed better suited for Josh, same with Romeu. I just hope he goes on loan this year to a decent club who play decent enough football (maybe Brighton, Blackpool, Wigan or a lower league Spanish club )

Middlesbrough are hoping to tie up a deal to sign highly-rated Chelsea midfielder Josh McEachran on a season-long loan.

Since we are obviously not looking to give Josh decent first team chances, I think a year-long championship loan is probably the best for him. Only down side to that is that he will miss the NextGen competition.

He definitely needs a good loan season for his development. I fear for his future with CFC having Oscar around, hopefully after 1 or 2 good loan season he will be automatic first team selection.
