Fans and football critics are often divided in the opinions when it comes to Chelsea’s fabled youth academy. There are enough reasons to believe that the system works. Chelsea youth team have been doing very well for the past few years, winning back to back FA Youth Cup.
On the other hand, surprisingly, none of the youngsters are supposedly not good enough to represent the Chelsea senior team.
Chelsea ship out over 10 players on an average to other clubs on loan, and it’s no coincidence that very few (Thibaut Courtois being an exception) actually make the senior grade at the club.
