He has obviously been working on his delivery. Earlier in the season he was erratic, the last couple of weeks his crossing has been spot on. With a striker *sighs* in situ, they would have been assists.

Really good player. I never knew much about him before his first app. Since then he's looked assured for a young player. He's probably our most exciting prospect. Colwill, the jury is still out if he's as good as people say, but Hall has proven he is quality. If he keeps improving then his ceiling is great. I don't think he needs a loan. 

Superb player. I think he is already at the level of Gallagher and ahead of Mount at the same age, and yet is only 18. He'll make for a fantastic central midfielder alongside Enzo and a DM.

Said after his debut that he'll play for England within three years. Going to be world class unless you screw him up.

This is Lewis Hall's lookalike. Used to be in a Harry Enfield sketch called the Double Take brothers:

 

Looks to be heading to Palace on a season long loan and will be signing a new deal. 

Great move for him and could potentially displace Mitchell if he impresses early on. Hope he gets nurtured as a LB. 

All over academy players who transition to the first team had good loan spells and this should be good for him.

I've seen a Palace loan but most accounts have caveated he won't be signing a new deal, 3 years left on his current one at the minute. 

I just don't see where he plays? LB we have chilwell and cucurella

CM we have santos/enzo/gallagher

Hopefully a PL loan to get minutes

You answered yourself there by typing the word Cucurella. Ideally you offload him and then Hall plays instead of him as he is the much better player.

Whos going to take cucurella with the contract/wages hes on? 

Have you heard any rumours he is leaving + which team would even go for him?

We can't be the only mugs to pay silly wages to average players. But yeah, you're right, wishful thinking that someone will take the poodle off our hands - another one we are probably stuck with.

That is why the 7yr contract is flawed. I can understand giving a 18-21yr a lengthy contract, but a 24yr old on a 7yr contract might as well be on his final big contract. There is zero incentive on Cucurella’s side to ask for a transfer even if he doesn’t feature.

But even so he shouldn't be allowed to enter the pitch. 

Displaces Cucurella hopefully in 12 months. Glad this has allegedly gone over the line before his loan move.

EXCLUSIVE: Chelsea have agreed a new 6 (+1) year contract with Lewis Hall.

Contract negotiations have been turbulent, with Chelsea initially insisting on a long-term extension, then relaxing & then insisting again, but now all agreed.

Really? It sounded like he was saying, " Lewis have you got that tenner you owe me?"

Please don't hand this absolute diamond to Roy Hodgson. Would be a waste of his talent.

Imho I think he showed last season that he is a future world class player who could already be useful to a lot of teams, including yours.

Apparently Newcastle want to sign him. 

Let's see if he signs that new 6 year deal we offered him.

That'll be Tino Livramento and his agent in his ear. They'll be buddies from the academy and they share the same agent.

 

Need to nip this in the bud sharpish and get that contract signed.

Hmm, current contact doesn't expire until 2026 so hopefully we just politely tell Newcastle to f**k off.

Seems he's for sale at 30m....
