Got a hat trick from midfield tonight. He has such amazing talent. But Chelsea obviously don't rate him as he's finding it hard to get in the team
He's another like Phil Foden who needs regular first team football for the good of the national side.
Both huge talents but Foden is only 18. Quite confident he will get plenty of game time in next few years under Pep. On the other hand lotus cheek is now 22 and needs to be playing regularly. Would like to see him move from Chelsea as they have a pretty poor record in giving youth a chance.
He really is an excellent player but I read today that his exclusion is tactical which to be fair to Sarri is unfortunately spot on. He’s competing for a place in a midfield two/three with Kante, Jorginho, Fabregas, Kovacic and Barkley and is currently behind four players in terms of partnering Kante if Chelsea play with a two. He certainly has all the attributes to go right to the top of the game but I do think that he needs a move in order to realise his enormous potential.
Hazard has gone on record saying he rates him, but he needs to leave Chelsea to develop into a top England player
That's the joy of the Premier League. They discard/ignore young talent, and as far as Chelsea are concerned, who reckoned they were a major side before the advent of the Premier League. They had managed to win the Championship once in 1955, thanks to Roy Bentley and Frank Blunstone, otherwise they were a yo-yo side betwixt the First and Second Divisions.
The Premier league in a nutshell. Why develop your own player when you can just buy the finished article?
