Josh Acheampong

[Elphers40]

The sky sports news reporter at Beckenham this lunchtime claimed we are exploring an interest in Josh Acheampong at Chelsea.

Made his Prem debut against us (funnily enough) aged 19 and played very well. Tall, physical and good on the ball.

This looks like a very Palace signing - hopefully it develops into something more than an interest.

Would be a great signing, but can’t see chelscum letting him go, if was to, would be ridiculous money. Hope I’m proved wrong

Might it be a loan rather than a sale?

This more likely.

Chelsea seem to be our feeder club. I’m guessing we’ve signed more players from them than anyone else (permanent and loans). So this could happen.

As surprised as I'd be that they'd be willing to let a big talent leave... They do seem to love selling of their academy players for the 100% profit.

For the player himself, he should be keen after seeing what a good move it's been for Guehi.

And Chalobah, Chillwell, Gallagher and RLC before them.

There might be something in this.🤞

 

[MrRobbo]

Great prospect. Has played for England at ever level too. Look at what Guehi has done fella

Has played a couple of times at RB recently, but definitely a CB.

With Colwill out this season he'll have a bit more chance of game time.

Gary Cahill did OK. Way back Paddy Mulligan was the same, Charlie Cooke not so much. Batshuayi in his first loan. Micky Droy? Well...he was big.

 

[Eaglecoops]

Yes please, this would be a decent loan. Not sure they would let us buy.

I thought that Charlie Cooke was excellent but the main problem was that the rest of the team weren't. Cooke would make an excellent pass for someone to run onto but the dozy prune was too daft to know where he was supposed to be running too

Paddy's 2 against Man U!

Enough to secure his place in history.

Can I add Gary Locke and Steve Wicks to the list of ex-Chelsea we signed

 

[samprior]

Yes please, this would be a decent loan. Not sure they would let us buy.

Although I think he's a great prospect that can immediately compete in our first team, I'd only be interested in a permanent move. Otherwise we'll just be developing a Chelsea player to the detriment of our own player development i.e Canvot, Riad and anyone else at the club who wants to stake a claim.

With Cobham so close it helps to convince players of a switch.

how can you all forget Mikael Forsell!

Probably easily enough, frankly. Although he was probably one of our better players of the time. Which doesn't say much.

Bobby Tambling, great winner at Old Trifferd and Alan Birchenall

Never really thought of him as a Chelsea player - more of a travelling salesman.
