Ramon Veiga epitomises the clubs recruitment policy, a talented young player bought in for little money who was under the radar at Basle. Works with a high calibre coach in Enzo Maresca who has a tremendous record of developing young players and then gets noticed by his international team manager who gives him a debut. The player then wants more, and who can blame him, so gets impatient and makes a noise (well his agent does) about more minutes. An offer then comes in and the club double their money and pop the profit in a kitty to fund the next big purchase (Isak for example), and then look for a replacement either from the academy, out on loan or a new purchase. Sell on clauses and buy backs will be essential in this model. Now, if a player comes in and is first team ready from the off all is perfect, minutes straight away, a gem unearthed and pats on the back all round. These young players are all super talented but not all will work out but their profiles and low wages will always mean that can move on seamlessly which is a far cry from a previous era. No right or wrongs here either just a different model. (And I'm serious about that kitty for the odd superstar and would love it to be Isak) .

{Ed001's Note - how can Enzo Maresca have a 'tremendous record of developing young players' when he has barely begun his coaching career and has no real record? You need to calm down a bit. He has not been anywhere long enough to develop anything or anyone yet.}

Agree0 Disagree0

His record at Man City developing young players was outstanding. So good that Pep brought him into the first team environment and he coached them to the treble including the Champions League. Players like Cole Palmer talk very highly of him but hey ho there you go! I thought this was a banter site?

{Ed001's Note - he was part of a massive team and solely working with youngsters, that is not a track record of developing young players in the first team is it?

As for thought it was a banter site, does that mean people can only comment if they agree with you? Or is it ok if people have different views from you?}

“Banter” interesting!

Ed001, I must admit I get bored when I’ve heard that recent chelsea coaches develop young players. As I’ve said before that is not the main job of the manager/ head coach otherwise what’s the point of the dozens of coaches of all descriptions at the club. As for Veiga I’d check his birth certificate, he looks about 35 lol.

{Ed001's Note - what Enzo said here can be said about every coach coming through at a top club. That is why they get promoted. Means nothing when it comes to being a head coach of the club though as the role is completely different.

As for Veiga, have you ever seen Abbott Elementary? He is good in that is Veiga....}

Maresca flaws are starting to show, talking about fullbacks not liked going up and down and only inverting like there’s no other way to play and when asked about formation or palmer start in right ( like he did last season ) it was a no, and it doesn’t matter where you start but end up, carney not even given chance, our formations and cuccurella inverting is starting to be figured out and
I worry his to stubborn to have a plan B, on top of that we now starting to see an unhappy squad, veiga wanting out, nkunku disasi KDH Carney casedei, I mean teams are for Circling for loans and we want sales. But with long deals we are sort of on back foot, keep unhappy players around and pay them or take the hit and let them go on loan and maresca has said he has 3 players for the no10 role so hard for others to get ahead of palmer, so why did we force the Felix deal, made no sense and still doesn’t,

I’m happy if we loan Chuka because I think he is a talented player who we would regret selling.

Players come and players go and it’s understandable that players are not happy missing games.

I wouldn’t have a clue about EM having only one way to play. Certainly at the start of the season we changed shape during games.
