Chelsea thread 2018/19

I'd like to be the first to congratulate Chelsea on the way they have brought through Hudson-Odoi.

For all the media criticism that he isn't in the first team, the fact that he is not looking out of place on the international stage, shows that they have got his development absolutely right.

He's a great talent.

I think for all the criticism about having no PL starts (from myself included) he's featured extensively in Europe in 2019. He's has managed nearly three times the minutes (623) than Foden (219) this season - it's not a knock on Foden who is a wonderful talent, but it's just to highlight that Hudson-Odoi has got loads of minutes under his belt for an 18 year old.

He's a good lad, alright.

Jody Morris once said while they were trying hard to create great footballers, they're also working hard at molding them into great men.

It also helps that he has people like Sterling to look up to.

Big summer for your boys.

Will Roman back Sarri and weed out the ****s or sack him to placate them?

I think it depends on a few things;

1. How Chelsea end the season. If we finish in the top 4 and win the Europa League, he'll stay. If we get neither, he goes.
2. How the transfer ban pans out. As it stands, Chelsea appealed and FIFA have set a hearing date for April 18th. I suspect the outcome of the hearing will be FIFA upholding their original decision, after which Chelsea will take their case to CAS.

I don't know if the club is paying attention to mood in the fanbase but if they are, they'd realise how deeply unpopular Sarri is.

Would you have Jose back if that's what was required or has he burnt his bridges you think?

Not in a million years would I want Jose back, though there still some sections of the fanbase who would love to see have him back.

I see Chelsea have offered the lad counselling for the racist abuse he has received over the last 2 weeks. Good for them.
On the other hand, Just a thought, but do you think Chelsea would pay for counselling for the abuse Sterling received at Chelsea?

Sterling is not a Chelsea player, so no. I dont see why they should either.
