Bit of a strange one after Mourinho said it would be better for the likes of solanke and rlc to stay with the first team rather than go on loan.

Wouldn't be suprized to see rlc go out on loan aswell now tbh.

What striker at 17, 18, 19 or even 20 was leading the line for their club? I think solanke is a brilliant young player but he needs more time to develop, which I think he will at vitesse. Considering traore did great as a striker there, solanke should excel.

Good on him for being brave enough to play abroad at such a young age.

Got to admire the ambition. Kid really wants to make it.

Jose in April

"Next year [solanke] has two ways to go. For me it would be a big mistake for him to go on loan to another team in England or in Europe. Staying at Chelsea, training with the first team, having pre-season with the first team, sometimes covering the main strikers, and playing every week again for the Under-21s and the Under-18s - he would probably never need to go out on loan. He can just go step by step here, and in a couple of years [he will be a] first team player."

Hmm.

Just another example...

So what you're telling me is that Jose wasn't telling the truth? 

 

Well slap my arse and call me Susan, who would have seen that coming? 

I just have to mention, I thought he took his goal brilliantly the other day, against Vitesse, he seems like such a natural finisher, whereas I'm yet to be sold on Brown.

Scored today, he has two goals already. He got his place in the starting line, he does well until now.

Yup, scored the first goal yesterday. Doing pretty well in the Netherlands.

 

Nathan scored the fourth as well.

Far from being the finished article yet, but he's the one from our youth team at the moment that I've got highest hopes for, over Loftus-Cheek.

He clearly deserves to stay with us next season, I have high hopes about a fantastic duo. Dominic Solanke and Tabby Abraham.

It's being reported that he has refused to sign a new contract due to the lack of opportunity at first team level. Meanwhile we prefer to load our squad with expensive wasters from South America. Give him the chance he craves.

And deserves!

Pretty sickening what this club is doing, but can you blame these kids? However much they want to be part of this club, there's seemingly no pathway to the first team. 

Good riddance if he goes, another c**t who wants too much too soon... and he really isn't that good.

Come on, he's a young lad with ambition. That doesn't make him a c**t and I don't think you honestly believe that so I'm happy to edit this post whenever you calm down a bit.

 

Not worth saying things we'll regret now is it mate?

I could understand him wanting to leave. It would probably be best for him to play for a club that owns him so they have some incentive to play and develop him.

Whether it's here or somewhere else I'll eat humble pie if he makes it, but I've watched a fair bit of Vitesse this season and (like Loftus-Cheek) I've seen nothing to suggest he has what it takes to play for the first team, Aston Villa perhaps.

He's 18. I'm not sure what he expects. Had he stayed with the club this season he would've got his debut probably but I strongly feel that the loan was the better option for him, he needs games and not in the U21 league or sitting on the bench. He should concentrate on performing for Vitesse, we have free spots in the squad for the forward position as the only senior striker we have and is likely to stay is Costa. Adding the fact that Conte likes to play with two strikers there's definitely a spot to grab.
