Looks like Borussia M'gladbach want to loan Andreas Christensen for a year. According to Bild, they are already in advanced talks and Mourinho is fine with the idea as he wants Christensen to play, but he doesn't see him in the Chelsea team yet.

Seems like a decent move, tbh.

by rwo power Mon Jun 08, 2015 2:51 am

Yeah. He'd even have a chance to get CL football with Gladbach, provided he can convince Lucien Favre of his qualities.

by Kick Mon Jun 08, 2015 2:55 am

He is a quality player, a very composed CB. He doesn't have the experience that Thorgan did when he joined but I imagine he'll get some decent rotation.

by rwo power Mon Jun 08, 2015 9:47 am

That's very likely, yeah. Favre proved last seaon that he used rotation very wisely (he took care that players didn't get overplayed and thus there were few injuries, too).

FYI, on Monday, Andreas Christensen played the full 90 minutes in the 1st round DFB-Pokal match against FC St.Pauli which Gladbach won 4:1.

Due to the injuries of Martin Stranzl and Álvaro Domínguez, Lucien Favre decided to trust his youngsters Andreas Christensen (19) and Marvin Schulz (20) as center backs and he was repaid with a strong showing of both of them.

Torfabrik.de gave Christensen the mark 2.0 (on a scale of 1/excellent to 6/useless) and praised him greatly, and other publications agreed.

(German, sorry)

By the way, it is very well possible that Favre will start the kids in the match against Borussia Dortmund on Saturday, too.

Thanks for the update, RWO, it's good to hear!

by rwo power Wed Aug 12, 2015 10:01 am

Andreas Christensen had a very good pre-season at Gladbach (together with the other youngsters), and Lucien Favre announced that he thinks he can use them without many reservations. So it looks as if all of the kids could get more minutes on the pitch than they expected ^^

Awesome news cheers

In the embarassing 0:4 defeat against Dortmund, Gladbach showed a collective total failure, and Andreas Christensen (who played the full 90 minutes) perfectly fit in with his colleagues.

Because he was just as bad as the rest of them?

by rwo power Sun Aug 16, 2015 5:54 am

Well, he is inexperienced, so he at least had an excuse, just like Marvin Schulz. The others, though...

Let's say, better forget about this match and hope they will learn from it that one should
- at least try to run a little,
- not escort the opponents, giving them a 2-3 metres safety zone in which they could do as they pleased,
- try to pass to the guys who wear the kit of the colour you wear yourself
- remember that the goal of the game is to take at least one or the other shot at the opponent's goal

Okay, I think that should sum it up a bit ^^

Pasalic scored again for Monaco while Solanke has been given permission to play for Vitesse.

Recall Bamford in Jan, send him to Sunderland and then add Padrew and Palace to the shitlist.

*bleep* them, shite manager and shite club.

The problem is that Paddy wants to stay in London, so we're restricted to London clubs because of it.

Anyone else noticed that Nate Chalobah, who Mou daid was more or less first team quality for Chelsea, hasn't played a competitive game for Napoli yet

by Kick Sat Oct 10, 2015 11:27 am

Hardly surprising. Napoli was a silly place to send him.

A good loan report on all players, by the Chels.

Paul McShane wrote:"Michael's played the last few games now and is looking really good The more he plays, the better for him because he got loads to learn and experience will help him a lot."

"As a defender you've always got to have good communication with the back four, especially your centre-back partner. But I'm not always telling him what to do. I'll give little pointers because that helps me and it helps him. We're developing a good understanding."

Positive words on Michael Hector, remember we signed him?

by Kick Mon Oct 19, 2015 3:00 am

Baker, Solanke, and Pasalic all scored for their teams this weekend Thumbs up

by rwo power Sun Oct 25, 2015 7:17 pm

Andreas Christensen scored, too. Too bad it was in Gladbach's goal XD

(Other than that he had a really great match, by the way. Could you please forget that you loaned him to Gladbach so that they can keep him?)

by Kick Mon Oct 26, 2015 12:48 am

Judging on how bad our defence is presently, I am sure he is firmly in our minds Razz

Chelsea threaten to pull plug on Jeremie Boga's loan deal with Rennes
http://talksport.com/football/chelsea-threaten-pull-plug-jeremie-bogas-loan-deal-rennes-151201176228

Chelsea have told Rennes to start playing teen star Jeremie Boga.

The Blues loaned the midfielder to the French club in the summer in the hope he would get some first-team experience.

However, the 18-year-old has started just once all season, with his other opportunities coming from the bench.

According to L'Equipe, that has frustrated Chelsea and they have instructed Rennes to start playing Boga more.

It is reported that if the Frenchman's playing time does not increase then Jose Mourinho could pull the plug on the loan deal.

Boga is regarded as one of the hottest prospects in Chelsea's academy and clubs in the Championship are said to be keen on snapping him up on a short-term basis.

Interesting that this comes out at the same time Boga gets his first league start for Rennes. hmm

I hope Pardew gets hit by a bus.
