Swans move for McEachran | Latest Football Transfer News | Sky Sports

(Loan Deal)
Click to expand...



something that should have been done from the start, we made the same mistake we made with Sturridge las season by assuring him he will get enough games and then in January finally loaning him out after we realised that we could ill afford to give him opportunities considering we were not doing too well...

Frankly I can think of no better club for young Josh, he should see first-team action at Swansea on a regular basis and will be playing under Brendan Rodgers, a manager who knows how to get the best out of him considering that Rodgers was pivotal to Josh's development when both of them were at Chelsea

I am hoping that Josh grabs this opportunity by the scruff of its neck just like Sturridge did

Agree with that. If we got him on loan, I'd be a very happy fan. But pretty much spot on.
 
I really hope Josh does go to Swansea and does great. I am worried he wont make it at the club and I really want him to because its clear to see he is a talented young player who has loads and loads of potential to make it big in his career. Im praying he wont be Jody Morris V2.

And those of you slagging off AVB for putting out a strong team, I dont think he did it because he is scared of pressure from the fans tbh, i think all the signs point to the fact that Roman has understood the need for stability and is willing to stick with AVB whatever happens this season

I'm not sure whether you're saying "you" as in Chelsea fans on this forum or Chelsea fans in general, but if it's the first then I don't think any of us slagged him off. We're just disappointed at the lack of a couple of players - most of his team I agreed with just feel that a couple could have done with a rest and a couple could have done with a chance.

Mr Chelsea said:
Hopefully he'll get a loan move, along with Bertrand and Hutchinson. It seems AVB can little afford to play either at the moment. Swansea will suit McEachran and if the move does happen hopefully he'll be as good for Swansea as Studge was for Bolton.

Regarding Bertrand and Hutchinson. I fear, as both of them are 22 (I think), that the boat may have sailed for them. However, I could be terribly wrong baring in mind Hutchinson's long lay-off and Bertrands lack of experience for Premier League clubs. If any of our youths are going to be loaned to another club it has to be a Premier club.

Hutchinson should not be loaned out yet. He's not ready fitness wise imo. He still has a lot of work to do yet, but then when he is fully fit, then he should be loaned out for half a season/a season to gain experience. And I think you're wrong about the boat having sailed for Hutch, and Bertrand, well, it depends what you mean...I think he can be a great backup for us, but I don't see him as the number one left back when Cole leaves.
 
Frank Lampard has now scored 103 goals for Chelsea at Stamford Bridge, Kerry Dixon has the most with 104.

Juan Mata is now Chelsea's highest scoring Spaniard with 6 goals.

Ramires is now Chelsea's joint highest scoring Brazilian with 10 goals joint with Alex.

I love Jody but most of his downfall was caused by himself.

I dont know too much about Jody other then that he was a player who possessed alot of potential but it just didnt work out and he left on a free to Leeds as I was only a little kid when he was playing for us. What did he actually do to cause his downfall I am curious?

Off the field problems really, mocking American tourists hours after 9/11 (whilst drunk), getting arrested for being involved in a drunken brawl and a sexual assault charge too. Before all of this he was a brilliant player but his off the field problems took over in his head.

I dont see Josh as the type of person to do the same off the field thankfully :P. Its a shame Jody was like that really my dad has told me a few times about how high the club and fans rated him and fully expected him to make big things in his career.

When all this bad stuff off the field was going on was just when we got bought too so he had no chance. He is still loved and i have him on twitter and he is still proper Chels which is good to see. Agree that i dont see Josh doing anything stupid, he seems to be level headed and seems to be in a happy relationship which helps. Was dissapointed not to see him today though would have prefered him to start than Meireles. Needs games week in week out so a loan deal could be the making of him.

Three amazing players. Really do not understand why Lampard is behind Raul in our midfield. Highest scoring midfielder in Premier League history, and the second highest assists of any player. He's also currently the highest scoring midfielder in the league so far this season, and has scored more wining goals this season than anyone other than RVP. All hair Sir Frank.
 
Talking of Jody Morris, having used the editor on a previous Football Manager, isn't he on the disliked list? Or am I completely wrong and hes on the liked list?

lol, a quote from the people of all places and one that's so ridiculously untrue that it doesn't even pretend to have an inside source. Pathetic.

More importantly telling Frank he can leave the club if he wants has nothing to do with loyalty, it has to do with him getting on. I suspect that what's happened is that AVB has told Lamps that he's not going to be starting every game anymore and if he wants to be an automatic first choice, he would be better off moving to a smaller league abroad. Surely it would be disloyal to tell him that he's not going to be starting every game but we're not going to let him go either.

I agree with you, Frank has to learn that he is not the beating heart of the Chelsea midfield anymore and be content with the rotational role he is playing just like Scholes and Giggs did at the end of their respective career's... I hope he realises that and publicly comes out and dismisses these rumours to reassure Chelsea fans

I for one will be shocked if he actually kicks up a huge fuss over not being selected and decides to leave the club
