On a serious note I didn't realise he was quite 25, but he's hardly past it either, is he, and he's a really really decent player. I don't know about third choice at Chelsea, but let's face it - if you have a player as good as Azpilicueta you play him, even if he is really a right back.
Perhaps I should have said two of the best full backs in the country, but they are well up there and Southampton should still be well chuffed with their business.

He doesn't sound young to me when you consider he has made 28,appearances in nine years as a pro at Chelsea, seems like a waste to me.

Re: Football Season 2014/15
Well if the top clubs don't want to give regular places to top English talent then he was wise to go to Southampton and on performances he should be considered for the international squad.

I meant he sounded young because I'm older than that, but I agree with Den's point - some of the top clubs have a habit of stockpiling young talent, often to their detriment.
Having said that, when you consider loans he's actually made over 200 appearances.

Being on loan is different from playing regularly for a parent club for a variety of reasons but loan is preferable to development squad football any day. I really hope young players resist the urge to join mega rich clubs for the sake of their careers, Scott Sinclair agrees and he should know better than most

Re: Football Season 2014/15
I think Wilf Zaha has a few thoughts on the subject as well!

Re: Football Season 2014/15
Yes bought for £15 million but rarely played in more then a handful of games.

All the blame lies squarely in the shoulders of ******* agents.

I actually think he got pretty lucky, he didn't waste that much time on the sidelines and spent most of his time loaned to his old club where he knew the surroundings, his team mates, training regimes, coaching staff etc it could've been worse for him plus palace have done very well out of it to!!

In an ideal world we'd just legislate them out of the game, if players want representation what's wrong with the pfa handling negotiations, it's what Gary Neville did and he's hardly in the poor house
