What's new

Cesare Casadei

He’s looked fantastic in the brief highlights I’ve seen of him. Massive step to PL, but would love to see him on the bench or maybe even start vs City in Carabao cup and FA games later.  Could be a real talent if he can handle the physicality. 
 

What stands out is how often he pushes into the box. Has a Lampard knack of being in the right place for a midfielder.

I think I read some years back about a study or something that came to the conclusion that the overwhelming majority of top athletes are born at the start of the year, Casare is born in January which increases his chances statistically that he becomes a top player in the future. We might have just signed a real gem.

Your are partially right. It’s to do with when your born in the school year calendar. Sept-Feb have a better chance of making a pro footballer than kids born later in the school year.

 
Noteworthy as well that Bergstrom (our loanee) in goal is 6'6" and he can't get anywhere near it LOL

 
He has all the makings of a true no.8, a player we really haven't seen since Frank.  Perhaps a loan next year (assuming lower half Prem or Championship contender) would be good.  That said, if you're good enough you're ready, so maybe some first team time!

 
Last player i remember being this clear of players his own age group was CHO. Took far too long for Sarri to get him into the first team and when he finally did was always one of our best players before the injury.

Hope we can give Casadei a debut and a few appearances of the bench for the rest of the season with the idea of him then being ready for next season. Not like we're exactly spoilt for talent at CM at the moment and could save us a fortune in summer.

 
Inter Milan must have a lot of talent in their youth setup if they could let him go this easy. He does look good, but obviously time will tell. We have seen similar talent at youth level, then when they go to the Championship or PL on loan, they no longer look as good.

Inter are happy to sell their youth products, so long as its for a decent fee. They did the same with Zaniolo.

 
Inter were and still are desperate for cash and  £12.6m goes a long way. 

Better to sell off your prospects.

Heard he started slowly at Reading but looks like he's got up to pace in the league now.

The midfielder joined on loan from the Stamford Bridge outfit in January, playing twice so far under fellow former Inter Milan player Ince.

Starting, and impressing, in the 3-1 win over Blackpool, the 20-year-old came in for plenty of praise.

"I was really pleased with Ces [Casadei]," Ince said. "He came back in again. When you come from a different country, particularly Italy, the tempo was a lot different to Championship football. He needed a couple of weeks training to get into that tempo and you saw that today on the pitch. He’s getting there. You sit there and wish he was our player, but he has to go back to Chelsea. He did really well and will get better and better."
