I was saying this at the weekend. I can’t see past them for the title this seasonHe was brilliant tonight, as were Chelsea in general. They're looking really good for the EPL this season.
He already is.This guy is going to be the best right back in the world very soon. A machine who can do everything
I think they will win the EPL said so when they signed Lukaku who was the top line striker they were missingGreat player...Chelsea don't have a weak link in that team.
Yeah, me neither.I was saying this at the weekend. I can’t see past them for the title this season
Kal Naismith was on Open Goal in the summer said Reece James who he played with at Wigan could play for any team in the world.
He's got the world at his feet just now. Chelsea's youth system is phenomenal.

I don’t think he will,he looks a far superior player.The boy is superb
He will probably be unlucky in his England career as he will play second fiddle to TAA but he is a star for sure
I hope Chelsea have him tied down on a long term deal
Depends on their managers mindset, he sat and let man city steamroll his team at the bridge, it might have been 1-0 city but Chelsea sat in so much they didn't even muster a shot on target. Right good result away at Liverpool mind you.I was saying this at the weekend. I can’t see past them for the title this season
It does help when they can buy youth from all over the world then just loan them out to feeder teams until they turn good.
I think he’s already there, the boy is a monster of a footballer.Will get to World class status
Like Loftus-Cheek, Chalobah, James, Mount and Hudson-Odoi who all started at Chelsea?It does help when they can buy youth from all over the world then just loan them out to feeder teams until they turn good.
Essentially involves using their oil money to buy up every decent youth prospect going with the law of averages saying at least a few will end up brilliant.Kal Naismith was on Open Goal in the summer said Reece James who he played with at Wigan could play for any team in the world.

I got slaughtered on here last season for saying Patterson was by far the best right back at Rangers…Told my Chelsea-supporting step son last season that Tavernier was a better player than James.
That comment has not aged well.
Did Frank bring him through?
Funny how people cry on here about Tav and Patterson, but Chelsea have literally managed the same situation with James and Azpe..Captain Dave.

if you want to win the title you need to beat the likes of man city at home.
Lampard saved the club about £200 million when he brought these lads through, yes the circumstances dictated that he had to but Frank was with them growing up and took a couple of them derby county, ultimately it cost Frank his job when the lads form dipped but he kept faith and Chelsea are far better off today for it. I love seeing home grown players make it with their club.They’ve had Reece James since he was six years old. They handled his development incredibly well. Potentially saves the club £100m+ if he stays with them. Chelsea have got five England internationals that joined the club at eight years old or younger- Mason Mount started at 4! True, they buy youth from abroad but they ain’t doing bad at home.

You don’t really TBHif you want to win the title you need to beat the likes of man city at home.
If you said it last season then you quite rightfully got slaughtered as tav was outstanding.I got slaughtered on here last season for saying Patterson was by far the best right back at Rangers…
It's a bit of myth that one. The vast majority of the ones now have come all the way through the youth ranks from the age of 8 etc. They did go through a spell of buying young foreign players and immediately loaning them out, some of them never actually seen Stamford Bridge but the ones in the team now are mostly home grown.Essentially involves using their oil money to buy up every decent youth prospect going with the law of averages saying at least a few will end up brilliant.
