Chelsea Youth Challenge

[Sam91]

fantastic story!

Thanks man glad you're enjoying it

Nice updates man! been enjoying the read so far keep it up!

Sevilla to top the group !

.

Thanks man haha knew you'd comment something like that

Great result against Watford Sam. Now you're England manager you'll have total control of English youth with them being so easy to get on their favourite list.

Yeah can look at all the decent young English players and snap them up

Kiwomya and Traore developed pretty well in my save, and they also have a 5 star PA. Also another superb player i had was Joao Rodriguez. How did he develop under your guidance?

Really? Their base stats didnt look too impressive for me but I saw they had good potential. Jao Rodriguez looks good again but I have better young players.

Think you are underestimating the group, no guaranteed wins there

Easier than previous years though lol no PSG this year for once.

Sorry about the lack of updates should have September up tonight!!

Monthly Review


A fairly good month. Will Hughes continued his superb form, Hazard was close to unstoppable and Nathan Ake has been terrific. But we are conceding too many goals!! A very good game against Villa as we were 4-0 up after 11 minutes!! Shame Chalobah got sent off though. Kalas has played well when called upon, more than justifying my decision in selling David Luiz. QPR put up a bit of a fight but were dispatched with ease. The Sevilla game was really tough, they proved a stern test and were much better than I thought.

Swindon were easily dispatched, Mata scored a screamer of a free-kick from about 40 yards. Redmond dominated them though, wasn't really a fair match up!!

I signed Drogba as a coach, gotta get him on board!! After all we are building a stadium after him.



Player of the Month

Eden Hazard

Just an utter genius. Torments everyone he plays against.

Monthly Review


Perfect month, wiping the floor with everyone really. Braga were impressive and we were nearly beat, they won a peno when the score was 2-2 but Courtois saved and I made some subs and Hughes and Lukaku changed the game for us. Swansea were also tough and 5-2 kinda flatters us.

Hazard and Lukaku have been sensational as has Hughes. Will Hughes has actually taken the CAM spot from Mata!! Thats saying something.



Player of the Month

Romelu Lukaku

Truly taken the striker role from Ademilson who has been very disappointing so far this season.

After a shocking result against Norwich we sorted ourselves out to smash this month, we should have battered United but they got so lucky!! We limped to wins over Sevilla and Braga, also Everton but its the three points that matter!! Pogba, Lukaku and Azpilicueta have been sensational this month. Azpilicueta has actually been shortlisted for the World Player of the Year!!

Next month we're off to the Club World Cup so our fixture list is gonna congest up yet again!! Wish England had a winter break!!

Very good month, adding goals to his game!

A month in which we didn't play our first league game till the 20th!! Wrapped up our Champions League group at the start of the month then flew out to Morroco for the Club World Cup which ended up being an absolute breeze scoring 12 goals in 2 games!! The back home for 3 league games in which we scored 13 goals in 3 games!! Reall destroying teams this month.

Here's the Champions League draw, couldn't ask for an easier opposition really:

Monthly Review


A pretty hectic month but we did rather well rotating the squad to keep everyone fresh. JT getting injured last month for 2 months wasn't ideal but we're coping well and Lukaku seems to be thriving wearing the captains armband!! The Villa match was mental and a superb comeback by the lads just when I though we were going to suffer a defeat against them again!! Big shame to draw to QPR as I despise them but the did play well in all fairness. The City game was important and Lukaku was the main yet again to wrap us up the three points!!

Transfers were really boring with just a few loans going out and Kakuta was sold, I signed a young Italian striker from Juve who looks okay but here's the screenie's anyway.

Monthly Review


Perfect month but some far from perfect performances limping to wins over Twente, Swansea and Sunderland but smashing Southampton, Fulham and Stoke!! Some mixed games but that was probably due to squad rotation due to injuries. Ramires finally played some games after picking up and injury in September!! Terry is still far from full fitness but young German Thorben Forster has been simply sensational.

A superb month, but filled with games we should be winning. The amount of knocks my players picked up this month was so ridiculous. The Twente game had me in fits, Pogba got a red card and basically put us in real danger. But penalties saw us through and here's the draw for the next round:

Couldn't have asked for a better draw really..



Here's the youth intake and a potential replacement for Ramires in the summer:
