If Gilmour and his advisers were naive before joining Chelsea, he’ll know what he’s up against now and should at the very least push for a loan move this summer to a club / manager who cares about his development. Still think it was the right move in terms of access to world class coaching, facilities and training with great players but now it’s time to play week in week out. I agree. A loan move is a must now otherwise he won't impress clarke or the current Chelsea manager. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Taylor1996 Posted March 14, 2021 Author Share Posted March 14, 2021 He needs to get out now. If you could Ziyech, Odoi and Pulisic as midfielders, Billy Gilmour is 9th choice midfielder. Unless Monty Burns buys Chelsea and the players drop like flies, through various mysterious illnesses and disappearances and arrests, etc, Billy Gilmour doesnt stand a chance of breaking into the Chelsea XI. I would love to see him at Manchester United. Teaming up with McTominay and Bruno. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he needs to go 2 steps back to go 2 steps forward. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hopefully they replicate it with Gilmour. Edited March 14, 2021 by Taylor1996 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diamond Scot Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 I dont have an issue with Gilmour not starting. What I do have an issue with is not making the bench when only 1 other deep lying CM is on the bench but 2 left backs are consisitenty on the bench. There is zero reason to have 2 left backs on the bench. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One midfielder and no place for Gilmour. Crazy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doesn't make any sense for him not to play at all unless he's got an injury. Its two separate “bubbles”. Gilmour has outgrown u23 football (ability wise) and playing probably wouldn’t do much for his development. He’s training with senior pro’s every week now, but he’s going to have to be patient. Frustrating because if he had been playing regularly he would’ve been going to the Euro’s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SWMM82 Posted March 15, 2021 Share Posted March 15, 2021 My big concern is Jack’s fitness for the Euro’s. I hope I’m wrong but think there’s a chance he’ll miss out which leaves a gaping hole in our midfield. We have some good midfielders but few natural sitters...... that’s why i would’ve taken Gilmour, he can play a 6 or an 8. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
