I'll go by age for Chelsea academy products and who I think has the most potential:

20 - Billy Gilmour, Marc Guehi second.
19- Tino Anjorin or Armando Broja
18 - Musiala :mad: If it's players AT Chelsea, Tino Livramento or Lewis Bate
17-Jude Soonsup-Bell or Harvey Vale.

16 and under it's kinda guess work as those games are rarely televised.
*sigh*

Harvey Vale really looks the part though. I like the look of Mbuyamba and Charlie Webster too, as well as Soonsup-Bell

Yeah, I like they don't just focus on Europe and do truly worldwide.

On a side note, Pinyaev being on there was nice to see a little update on him. I'm pretty sure if he keeps progressing he'll be over here pretty quickly when he's eligible.
Haha yeah I thought we had the Russian-Messi locked down? Very strange.

Levi Colwill 18 on loan at Huddersfield looks better than Mbuyamba.

Mbuyamba is coming back from a pretty serious injury, but yeah, I forgot about Colwill. He's been outstanding for Huddersfield.

Cole Palmer - Winger - doing well with England u21, often on the match day bench now
James McAtee - attacking midfielder, Brighton apparently bid £8m for him last week
Liam Delap - Forward, struggling with injuries this season which is a shame as he may have got the odd runout as a sub
Callum Doyle - defender - Currently on loan at Sunderland, just turned 18 but doing really well there, good on the ball and has good pace

I forget the specifics now but don't you also have a young keeper thats impressing out on loan in the Championship?

He wouldn't be allowed to move until he's 18, which is still a year and a bit away - which seems mad!
Yeah there has to be something weird going on with him. He got an incredible amount of hype and then he signs for some team in Russia that I've never heard of?

How is Lewis Bate doing?
I've seen most of their games and he's been consistently fantastic in the U23s. His range of passing is something else. Really think we might see him run out with the first team before the end of the season.
