Premier League Gameweek 12

[Cassidy]

I just detest everything about Chelsea. Their kit, their stadium, their fans, their players, everything about them really annoys me. Anyone feel the same way??

Reece James is going to be a Chelsea starter for a decade +

Very good on the ball, great pace, strong as hell, and best of all he's very composed. Doesn't panic like a lot of youngsters do.

 

[balaks]

Happy with the spurs starting lineup

 

[RedPed]

I can feel my deep hatred for Chelsea coming to the fore again.

How's Winks been doing? Shame to see him on the bench (as an England fan).

 

[Man of Leisure]

When Klopp and Pep do finally decide to feck off, this Chelsea team might be filling the void. Once they can start buying some players, might not even have to wait until then.

 

[Kostov]

Lampard doesn’t seem to worry of playing too many young players it seems.

 

[Supermonkey_Wolf]

He's the safest bet on which player will make it to the top. He's not even twenty! Maybe not as good as TAA in the final third but much more reliable in defence.

 

[Gandalf Greyhame]

Routine, comfortable win for Chelsea. Good football, again.

Reece James and Tammy Abraham could be big players in the future.

 

[Man of Leisure]

Lampard doesn’t seem to worry of playing too many young players it seems.

Not like he's got much of a choice right now, but yah. Someone like Giroud would stick out like a sore thumb.

 

[kouroux]

How's Winks been doing? Shame to see him on the bench (as an England fan).

Why ? Winks is as average as they come.

He's not going to get any better sat on the bench.

It's working rather well, so why worry?

Certainly doing the business and proving the doubters (me) wrong with results. Best form in the league now. Transfer ban has turned in to a blessing in disguise.

How do we compare Greenwood with Chelsea young forwards?

 

[Gandalf Greyhame]

How do we compare Greenwood with Chelsea young forwards?

Chelsea's forwards are being coached well. Not a fair comparison under Ole.

 

[duffer]

How do we compare Greenwood with Chelsea young forwards?

You can't really. Greenwood is younger and has played far less first team football.

 

[TsuWave]

Lampard got these lot balling.

 

[DomesticTadpole]

How do we compare Greenwood with Chelsea young forwards?

Don't think you can until he is established in the side. Tammy and Co are young but far more experienced. They have been out on loan, so now really appreciate being back at Chelsea and want to stay in the side.

 

[Theafonis]

Willian's been very good this season. Always figured Hazard was holding him back.

 

[kouroux]

He's not going to get any better sat on the bench.

England doesn't have other midfielders ?

 

[SkeppyRed]

How do we compare Greenwood with Chelsea young forwards?

According to Joe Cole we have no youngsters on the level of Chelsea’s which is total bull. Rashford and Greenwood are better than anyone they have and they probably won’t be the only ones.

 

[balaks]

How's Winks been doing? Shame to see him on the bench (as an England fan).

I think he is coming back from a knock. He is a good player but really a squad player rather than a first teams imo.

 

[Maniwalde]

Fun fact of the day: Reece James' sister Lauren plays as striker for United's women team.

 

[duffer]

England doesn't have other midfielders ?

Jordan Henderson and Declan Rice started in England's last game. We need as many English players starting in the prem as possible!

 

[TheMagicFoolBus]

According to Joe Cole we have no youngsters on the level of Chelsea’s which is total bull. Rashford and Greenwood are better than anyone they have and they probably won’t be the only ones.

That's lunacy. I certainly wouldn't swap Tammy, CHO, Mount, Tomori, or James for either of those two.

 

[Cassidy]

This isnt true.

 

[roonster09]

How do we compare Greenwood with Chelsea young forwards?

Not comparable, Greenwood is playing at professional league for the first time and barely played any mins. Every Chelsea youngster apart from CHO were all out on loan and have played 2-3 seasons of league football.

Their least experience players have played more games than AWB and McTominay.

Huh? Come again

Rashford is 22 and has played more than 100 games for you. Cole was talking about kids coming through, not established first teamers.

I'm not sure how good Greenwood is but your manager does not think he's worth starting.

 

[kouroux]

Jordan Henderson and Declan Rice started in England's last game. We need as many English players starting in the prem as possible!

In that case I hope Winks starts as much as possible, it could only help United and maybe even France in the summer.

 

[SilentWitness]

Moise Kean not even in the squad today.

What's going on with him?

Just turned 18 last month, he is starting cup games which is good for his development.

Going by youth games, he is excellent but lets see how it translates to professional games against bigger players.

 

[SilentWitness]

What's going on with him?

Seems like a bizarre mix of Silva not knowing what to do with him and a couple of average performances.

Somewhere Souness is preparing his notes.

I hope he's great, I really do. Be very interesting to see how he responds to Ole calling his inconsistent training out in the media (that's some Jose type stuff there and I don't mean that in a bad way).

 

[RedPed]

How can you get a yellow card after 2 minutes??

 

[DomesticTadpole]

Everton take the lead at Southampton. Tom Davies. 0-1.

 

[flappyjay]

Chelsea's forwards are being coached well. Not a fair comparison under Ole.

Nah its not even an Ole thing, Pulisic is 21 and playing his 3rd or 4th season of top level football, Mount came from a full season of playing for Lampard in the championship. Tammy is having his fourth season of senior football. Mason Greenwood and Gomes are still very green when compared to the Chelsea boys. Marcus Rashford is a fairer comparison
