We've signed an 18 yo Jamaican lad .

Newcastle were interested.

Name is something, ' whisper " Williams

Anyone got any info on the lad ?

Chelsea have completed the signing of teenage Jamaica striker Dujuan "Whisper" Richards, who will join the club when he turns 18 in October ....  2024.

Currently watching the u21's, this guy is special. Big, strong, quick, makes very clever runs and seems to be an excellent finisher. Close control is perhaps  a bit lacking at times, which needs to be worked on. Curious to see what we do with him next season

Should play him now. What we got to lose!

Exactly.. I wouldn't mind give a young talent a chance to play. 

We need motivation, we need fresh and quality youngsters. We don't have a proper striker at the moment.

Excellent 4-0 win, and two goals for Richards. Also one each for George (and) Washington, which the Americans should appreciate LOL.

Strange that the U21s are lining up 3-4-3 vs the first team's 4-2-3-1.

Bit of a "fail" from our Directors of Football I'd have said to have them playing a different formation to the first team ? Mind you they're 4th in their league, so maybe it's the first team that should copy the U21s LOL.

To be fair, we go through 2-3 different head coaches in a season, each with their particular formations and tactics so I’d rather just leave the youth coaches to do their thing 🙂

He was kicking around the Chinese 2nd division for a while. Currently in National League South with Yeovil! They were in the Championship 10 years ago. Quite the fall from grace.
