Seems like, by his comments, Chalobah won't be returning to Napoli next year. What are people's opinions on him? Would you like to see him kept on for next season? I think he could be a handy squad player with the ability to fit into midfield and defence but could excel in a three man defence - if we ever line up like that. Would love to see him Baker, Aina and RLC all in the squad next season.
Ed have you got any insight into what might happen with him?

I think he's still a great talent, and I think it'd be awesome to see him get a chance in our squad.

ive got to ask, why would you love to see aina? I can sort of understand the rest. our youth - hype.

He's, in my opinion, a top quality young full back who, without a doubt, has international player potential. Plays left and right sided and has been in England U21 squads already. I think there are some overhyped players in our youth ranks - but don't think he is one of them.

Nathaniel is always a bone of contention for me mentally. While he's struggled over the past two years or so, he was phenomenal at Watford and he's only 1 year older than RLC. As others have said he has a lot of tactical flexibility which really lends itself nicely to a squad role. I just don't know if the club and Nathaniel are patient enough to mold him into a holding midfielder that retains a squad position.

The youth players are not over hyped, they are good in the environment they play in. The supporters sort out favourites and talk them up on youth performances expecting a seamless move into the EPL when history indicates many will never be better than top youth players. As we know, a few hear the stories and suddenly demand a long contract on big money and that will not work at Chelsea. Loans I think should be to the highly competitive Championship not obscure foreign clubs.

Feels like chalobah has been around for years, forget how young he still is.
