Looks like a good potential. Would take some player to break into that Chelsea midfield.

In fairness the way Chelsea are playing of late it could be ideal for an unknown youngster to come in and take the EPL by storm......:-):D
I love it if he got a start for Chelsea, and with 3 points out of a possible 18 I don't see why he shouldn't get a game!
You'd think this would push him up the order but the opposite case is actually occurring. Players like McEachran, Sturridge and Kakuta were getting plenty of game-time a couple of months ago but now that they've stopped winning games Ancelotti is sticking with the experienced guys despite their poor form.
Playing against Arsenal reserves this afternoon, just scored the equaliser

Great move from Chelsea down the right, comes back to Clifford on the edge of the box, he smashes home off the inside of the post.
Met a Plymouth fan tonight. They loved Clifford but couldn't continue his loan because of a transfer embargo due to their pending administration hearing.
Gone on loan to Notts County for an initial one-month spell, but the article says both clubs expect it to be extended to the end of the season. Good move for him - Paul Ince seems to have found his feet again there and there's a few other Irish players around.

I'll have a look out for him the next month or so. Always good to have an Irish prospect playing football on your doorstep!
Great to see this guy getting another dose of game time. Would have liked to see him step up to the championship this time (I'm sure he could handle it) but it's all good.
Notts County are one place worse off than Plymouth, although with 5 games in hand over them.
I'm happy for him to get game time, and hopefully push on either at Championship or first team level next season
Somebody went to the bother of posting his goals on Youtube,(sorry if posted already)

Is he good enough to break into Chelsea's midfield?
i fcking hope not! :DQuote:

He's already said that he doesn't expect to have a future at Chelsea, with all the players they've brought in, just a matter of where he ends up.Quote:
