Those two and Udogie for me. Gut feeling is they're all going to be huge players for us over the next couple of years.Bissouma and Sarr are the 2 players I'm most excited about seeing under Ange. I have a feeling Sarr is going to be a star

He has a big rep for promoting youthAgree with this. I’m interested to see if Ange is the kind of manager that will put his faith in them. I definitely think if Poch was still in charge he would trust them but I don’t know what Ange’s record is with young players.
I hope he does play them regularly because I think they Sarr and Udogie have the tools to be absolute superstars.
Conte's a bellend.I believe the saying is ‘Baller’.
Criminal how Hojbjerg was ran into the ground last season and Sarr was left on the bench after the San siro game.
That’s putting it politelyConte's a bellend.
He did look talented, good on the ball, worked hard etc from some bits and pieces we before, looking at the highlights some of his positional play is so good and aggressive (what Ange wants with the pressing etc) but it's worth mentioning. He essentially starts in a position as high as a traditional 10 off the ball
Look at him here, starts essentially as a RB and starts off the entire attack giving it to Madds who whips it out wide. Sarr sees that and instantly drives straight up the pitch as the crow flies and is again the highest man up the pitch other than the front 3 and he's the player making the run in case the keeper spills it! Incredible and determination
Again there's a cross coming in and he's a the one at the edge of the box, getting into that free space in and around the penalty box. The ball goes back and he stays in the pocket, calls for it, gets it and goes for goal
Starts high, near the edge of their box with their defender having it near the penalty spot. Kulu intercepts and as soon as he's starting to get control he's drifting into the box, then makes a driving run into the space between the CBs as he shapes up to cross. Okay he may not be pulling strings like an Eriksen or VDV, but he's very forward thinking, direct, making up that extra man/almost secondary striker role
A very direct midfielder taking up spaces in the pockets, being in and around the striker making driving runs beyond the striker, making up that extra man and holding spaces in the box in for rebounds. It's a boring parallel but that's Lampard's playing style all over, at least in terms of attacking and wouldn't be surprised at all if he gets 10+ goals this season if his finishing is decent. Him, Bentancur, Bissouma, Maddison, GLC, Hojbjerg, Skipp is a very strong group of players when everyone's fit and healthy
Great stuff Sarr, keep it up
Ange loves developing youth players, he was a youth team coach for quite a while and was Australia national team u21 coach as well I believe, it’s in his DNA.Agree with this. I’m interested to see if Ange is the kind of manager that will put his faith in them. I definitely think if Poch was still in charge he would trust them but I don’t know what Ange’s record is with young players.
I hope he does play them regularly because I think they Sarr and Udogie have the tools to be absolute superstars.
He’s 21 on September 10thCrazy to think this bloke is only 19.
That's why its crazy to think he is still only 19.He’s 21 on September 10th
Can see way the club were reluctant to just sling Paratici out and why they are probably still using him.We have Paratici to thank for recognizing the talent and doing a deal that was fairly unusual for us by spending £14.5 million on an 18 year old and leaving him on loan at Metz. The same strategy seems to have worked a treat for Udogie too.
That's why its crazy to think he is still only 19.
