Chelsea have player who could save them millions – Talk Chelsea

Over the weekend I had a random message despatched to me on Twitter, and it wasn’t from a Chelsea fan.

The message was from a Swansea Metropolis supporter, which I believe is an absolute first for me. And all this chap stated was, ‘thanks for Bashir Humphreys!’

In fact, they will take pleasure in him this season, however subsequent season this man has a real probability of coming again into the Chelsea squad and difficult for a spot.

Maybe he will be the one to exchange Thiago Silva, as huge a job as that may be? Clearly he wouldn’t be instantly changing Silva anyway, a minimum of by way of significance and expertise. However with Levi Colwill, Benoit Badiashile, Wesley Fofana, and Axel Disasi all set to battel it out to truly ‘change’ Silva, Humphreys might come again in to the squad and change Silva’s spot.

It’s all the time been the expectation that that is Silva’s final yr at Chelsea and that for me is completely the right choice, with large due respect to Thiago. I believe even he’ll really feel that this must be his final season within the Premier League.

However again to Humphreys, this man is exhibiting actual class, and all of us really noticed that in pre-season as effectively. He very virtually stayed at Chelsea, as Dan Barker from The Chelsea Spot reported on our Podcast final week. Chelsea actually like him, Mauricio Pochettino actually likes him, and there was a thought that he ought to keep to cowl accidents. However ultimately, it was his improvement that rightly got here first and the truth that they needed him to be enjoying matches, and that’s precisely what he has been doing to date.

He’s performed 5 matches to date for Swansea and even got here up with a brilliant essential aim, and Swansea followers are actually completely raving about him.

He’s already been within the Championship group of the week earlier this month:

He bought this raving assessment after scoring his aim:

Wales On-line: ‘Proved the hero as he picked an unimaginable second to attain his first aim in senior soccer and seize the winner. He impressed all through the sport, oozing confidence on the ball as he gave one other efficiency past his years. 8/10 (star man).’

And simply take a look at these stats after he helped Swansea beat Plymouth 3-1 of their final recreation on the weekend:

The boy is actually made for Chelsea and is already wanting a category above the extent he’s enjoying at.

The perfect factor is, the England U20 worldwide continues to be simply 20-years-old and continues to be very a lot growing. This mortgage will do him wonders and I actually consider he might be ok to fit in to our squad subsequent summer season and probably save us tens of millions in signing a brand new centre again to exchange Silva, if that’s what we resolve to do.

With the accidents we get, particularly on the again, then Humphreys might actually see a pathway open up at Chelsea and naturally, we must be giving pathways to the younger gamers we’ve who’re clearly ok.

He’s a tall (6ft 2in) ball enjoying central defender who performs with confidence and sophistication. What’s to not love? He additionally has a protracted contract with us (2027).
