Chelsea are a shame on the English game despite the fact we recently won the champions league and Europa league and are consistently flying the flag in the latter stages of these competitions.
Dear oh dear Express your clutching at straws
Can't have a go at our playing style

You Give Josh a medical and we might play him

What about him? Extremely overhyped by people on this board. As with Mirislov Stoch, Scott Sinclair and some even with Borini. Average players, that should be nowhere near a squad looking to win big trophies.

Josh McEachran is a saint. Leave him out of this

To be fair the problem is across the board. Apart from perhaps Raheem Sterling, I can't think of a single youth product from a top 5 team who is even threatening to become a world beater. Universal problem that has been caused by (as pointed out before) the huge gulf between the first team standard and youth team standard.

Sturridge is not doing bad as well.

From the whole England team apart from our own players only Rooney would even make our bench. How can we be a top side and have English players in the side, it is impossible.

I like Jack Rodwell and if he can get over his injury issues he can become a world class player. Barkley, Walcott and Stirling are also pretty good but as you can see they all play for decent clubs but how many English players are playing at Real Madrid, Barca and Bayern ???

Let's face it we're not the only culprits. Barely any team produces decent English talent. Arsenal and United don't develop it, they buy it which people often forget.
One positive is our youth team who have win several trophies over the past 3-4 years, the majority of those are English.

Idiot doesn't even know that you don't have to name under 21's like Chalaboah in your squad list. What a tool.
