Just wondering what Ed001 thinks about Trevor Chalobah. He seemed to do a good job last season and now there looks like talk of him leaving on loan.
Do you think he had what it takes to hold down a first team spot?

{Ed001's Note - he is young and so inconsistent, as he doesn't yet have the experience needed for consistency. But I think the potential is there. He needs to play for Chelsea imo, rather than being farmed out on loan. I think he is good enough, especially with Silva alongside him, someone to talk him through and cover for the errors he will inevitably make as he learns.}

Thanks for the reply Ed, always appreciate your knowledge around the players.
I would love to see him get a good amount of game time with us this year.

{Ed001's Note - you are very welcome BP.}

I think his really good, sometimes tries to hard to win the ball or make the tackle when he doesn’t need to, like him and Cho with fofana and Gordon I’m
Not sure the more a great deal between them, for £130m it not a huge upgrade, IMO.

I worry about Chalobah, I find him very rash he goes to ground at every opportunity and his headed clearances are very poor. He is now 23, so there is time for improvement. The latest news is that a deal is agreed for Fofana, so how much playing time will he get. I think he needs playing time to gain experience and confidence, so I think a loan would be best for him.

Jimbo, have you ever had a good word to say about any Chelsea player, coach or manager?

G8, if you think Chalobah is good enough to be a regular for Chelsea, you are entitled to your opinion. If you bothered to read other people’s posts instead of posting your own views which are never other than happy clappy, you would see that I have have been very supportive of Chelsea players who other posters have slated. As for TT, I have concerns as do many other posters . When you post try and give some objective critical analysis of why anyone should take your views seriously.

Chalobah impressed me last season. Played many games but at some point it seemed his form dropped a bit. But that happens. If he improves his 1v1 defending (where he was caught out a couple of times) I think he will be a solid player.
