7 goals and 7 assists in 21 starts for Marcus Edwards this season.

How Poch managed to fuck that one up, I'll never know.
 
We have been linked to Gerson who plays in Brazil, anyone know anything about him?
Very good player. Started in Fluminense, here in Rio, then went to Roma. Didn´t do well, was loaned and then return to Rio, this time to play for Flamengo, the biggest club in the country - the one I hate the most. This was last season, and they´ve won everything. Gerson was their best player, in my opinion.

He is still young, 22 or 23. Left-footed. Skillful player, great vision, very good passer. He is a number 8, though. We have Lo Celso and Ndombele, not to mention the others.

Pulisic has been underutilized at Chelsea. Abraham is quite good as well, but Timo is better at this moment. It's great for Chelsea, bad for Abraham and bad for humanity because fuck Chelsea.
Maybe I should have said Pulisic ends up in the reserves and Tammy stays in the squad. I don’t think Fat Frank cares for Pulisic
 
When Chelsea buy a player, the overriding factor is how much will he improve the team.

When we buy a player, the overriding factor is how much resale value does he have.

That's why they win trophies and we don't. Wether people are happy with that or not, no one can seriously argue it's not the case.
If we were in Chelsea’s situation now, we would have gone down the line of “we already have Mount and Abraham, we don’t need to sign Ziyech and Werner” whereas they look at it as “Ziyech and Werner are improvements on Mount and Abraham, and they’re available, let’s get em.”
Sure there’s pros and cons to both approaches, but end of the day Chelsea will in all likelihood win trophies next season and we’ll come up short again. Simple as really.
 
Kane is guaranteed an injury every season at the moment.

"Guaranteed"? ....Really?

Aside from his most recent; he's had a bad run of luck with impact injuries.

Any striker that comes in is getting 25 games minimum.

Like Llorente & Jansen got 25 games you mean?

Yeh, yeh... Jose.... But the way you're throwing absolutes around is silly.

Besides, did you ever consider they may guarantee TA all the cup games next year....? We meanwhile may not even be in Europe!

He has nothing to gain from moving here.
 
For somebody who is supposed to give youth a chance, he has a lot of fuck ups.

I think the worst part was halting their development by simply taking them out of the u23s, not loaning them out and then also not playing them.

Skipp missed over a year of football by simply getting sporadic first team appearances.

KWP missed what seemed like years of development by being 3rd choice, not getting loaned out and not playing reserve football.

Then you look at Chelseas youngsters flourishing because they've played seasons out on loan at Championship or Premier League clubs.

Luckily we didn't let Tanganga go to waste.
