Been out tonight talking to two Palace supporters who have seen Loftus-Cheek play and they weren't that enamoured about the signing.
Let's hope he does much better than they expect of him.

Young players are often played in a variety of positions until theyr'e best posiion is found. Lets hope that FdB knows where to play him andthat it clicks. He seems to be a goal scoring AM, so if he can pick up Benteke knock downs in the box, bingo!

What on earth has Williams done in recent or more distant times to suggest he should be given a 'Crack' in the rarefied atmosphere of the PL ?

If he wasn't "One of us", so to speak, would there be these suggestions that he should be given a chance ? I don't really get this "Love-In" with the lad in certain quarters.

No option to buy bit disappointed with that.

Shouldn't this thread be locked now.

Andy Johnson Magic, He wears a Magic Hat
When he Sees the match ball, he says he having that
He scores one with left foot, he scores one with his right
And When his playing Brighton, He scores all f***ING Night!

Agreed an option to buy is neither here nor there.
I must admit I know very little about this lad,and am dubious about the majority of Holers comments.!!
I have not received any emails from my numerous contacts at Chelsea.
So I am clueless about this lad.
Can any Holer answer this question:-
Can he kick a ball over or under a wall ?

Having said all that,from listening to Ruben and Frank,he sounds like a "Total Footballer".
Able to play in several positions including this modern Number 10 position..
Is that the old fashioned inside left or inside right.
He even mentioned striker.
So I hope being Franks first signing he does as well as Sams last.

Palace 13th 2017/18.

I gave out such a yawn, I could have been a hedgehog preparing for hibernation.
