How many 16 or 17 years olds have Chelsea used in the 1st team in recent years? There is a big difference from the level to be in our first team vs Chelsea's.

I doubt it. Dibling is a 16 year old 1st year scholar who'll probably be playing a mix of under 18s and under 21s football for the next two seasons and then go out in loan. Hudson-Odoi is a fringe first team player.

Looks like it may have been him...

The entire Monaco game...

No, it was a genuine question based on what you said about a 'return'. Was he at Saints before he joined Chelsea under 9s?

Indeed, perhaps that could be the case. Or perhaps not...

But this game was for the player currently under discussion in this thread. Clearly Saints had some level of interest in someone at that game, perhaps it was him.

Saints had a scout at this Anderlecht game last season... https://www.lesoir.be/409204/article/2021-11-29/du-beau-monde-charleroi-une-pluie-de-scouts-au-choc-face-anderlecht

I didn't say it did.

Yes I know, that is why we are discussing him. However he was not sat in the corporate seats, he was with friends/family who are Saints fans. Doesn't mean a transfer is on the cards.

Yes

Return? He joined Chelsea when he was 8 years old. Was he at Saints before that?

Why would it jeopardise a transfer? 🤔

Prediction = Joe Aribo is going to prove to be PL bargain of the season Very impressive in his cameo tonight

Levi Colwill at St Mary’s tonight...

Looks like it was designed by a kid with a crayon
