I judge a player by watching him play on a football pitch. And when Tuanzebe made his debut for us away to Arsenal at the Emirates he showed his huge potential against one of the best players in the league in Alexis Sanchez. That was more than enough evidence that he deserved a chance in the first team squad. I've told you why he deserves a chance over Lindelof, Rojo and Jones who imo are not as good as Tuanzebe but it doesn't seem to be registering with you.
Mourinho has never been great with bringing youth team players through to first team level. His record is actually pretty shit. Scott McTominay who I've watched for quite sometime in our youth teams was never good enough and that sentiment was shared by most regular youth team observers. The only plausible explanation I've heard to why Mourinho has promoted such a limited player is due to his height.
Mourinho has made countless feck ups with young players over the years. Two glaring ones in his time at Chelsea with Salah and KDB. But carry on blindly defending a man who is doing a terrible job.
You still havent provided anything in support of your view and keep on blaming Mourinho (who actually has a good record with developing young CBs as i pointed to Varane at Madrid, Santon at Inter and Zouma at Chelsea).
Mourinho also appreciated his talent saying “With Axel, 10 minutes is enough. I only needed 10 minutes to know his potential, you can see it immediately.” So the question is not about his talent.
If he is already good enough to play for us then answer these questions
1. Why couldn't he get a loan to a premier league club like Zouma and Chambers and had to go back to the championship? Is Mourinho responsible for this as well or other PL manages are blind?
2. Why has he not had a senior NT cap yet? or is Mourinho managing the English NT selection?
3. why has he had only one U21 cap when players like fikayo, konza, simpson etc have had multiple? again is this Mourinho's fault too?
If he is as good as you claim, he should be a fixed starter for the U21 (cos the likes of Konza are not good enough to play in the PL talk less of playing for us) and he should have had at least one senior cap (cos even Jones made the England world cup squad).
The obsession with seeing Mourinho as the source of all evil seems to cloud the judgement of many on here. No other manager has deemed him developed enough to be a regular for NT, U21 or another PL club, but yet you claim he is good enough for us. That is just a joke.
