He's very talented, but I'm not that surprised. He was 17 at the start of the season, and it's pretty rare for someone so young to break into an elite team (unless you're mbappe)
He's got about 900 first team minutes so far which is making good progress. I don't think the other teams in the big six will have played many players who were 17 at the start of the season

Can’t believe the Palace full back hasn’t been called up. He’s been outstanding all season.

Fear of him slipping through the net like Ampadu, Zaha, Woodburn etc?

Maybe brooks moreso than Woodburn
With what they're doing with Declan rice it must be something they're looking at more closely these days.

It looks worse when England do it, as they are not exactly short of decent players.

All of a sudden, it hasn't always been the case, remember the early 90s?

I can remember a few years ago after Adnan januzaj had played 1 decent game for man u there was a media clamour to see when he could qualify through residence. 1 ****ing game! And he's turned out to be shit.
One of my English mates at the time said it was a new low in his England supporting career.

Me too, I wanted to say Sarri is crap, but I went with CHO hasn't started a league game for Chelsea yet. Maybe it was too subtle :biggrin:

He was impressive when he came on last night. First I've seen of him.

Sarri is a mug for not playing him, and surely Ampadu couldn't do any worse than their current back 4? If they play the youngsters now, they will be all the better for it. Why wait until they are 23 or 24, it doesn't make any sense.
