Food for thought , just because he’s got the Chelsea label and Youth caps doesn’t necessarily mean he’ll be any good at our level. A few shine , Elliot Anderson being the best example but more fail . I’ve never seen this kid play so have no idea but I’m certainly not putting him in the “ great signing” club. Let’s wait and see if he can handle it . True and at 19 Anderson was Flying and Battling for Newcastle Place that looks like he is albeit is a regular squad player and came on Saturday albeit for 3 minutes or so but a regular squad player all the same. Harvey Vale was tried and then went to championship and seems to be working his way backwards. As you say its not all about the Chelsea name, it was only a couple of years ago our u15's & 16's went down to Chobham and beat them. His lack of appearances at Hull was down to a change in manager, different horses for courses.

Noticed Chelsea have included a recall on this loan in January assuming it does not go well

Well, we had a Premier League player in League 2 so why not a Championship level player in League 1. Sounds like Chelsea are hoping we can provide a similar career path leg up that Anderson got here. If we do sign him I reckon that McCormick will be off, on loan probably, as that will leave us with a glut of options in the AM department. Andersson was only here a few months so what career path was that?

If we are looking at having 2 decent players for each position and a few "utility" players. Then HV will be in competition with Luke Thomas.
Evans/Brown Collins/Sinclair Thomas/Vale ? Marquis/Loft ?
Ward/ ? Finley/Rossiter
Hoole/Gibbons Taylor/Wilson Crama/Connelly Gordon/friend
Utility-Grant , McCormick

Still not convinced about the strength of cover for Gordon and Hoole yet either, but we’ll see.

In case people missed it. Wael posted a photo today of inside Stamford Bridge (presumably from yesterdays game) with a simple "pen" emoji indicating a signing of something/someone!

Oh thats okay then. just that manager didn't think he was any good. Thomas Tuchel an elite Champions League winning manager deemed him good enough to play him in competitive fixtures for Chelsea's 1st team. Harvey Vale is a top talent. I'm not saying he'll definitely have the same impact as Elliot Anderson but he's got the capabilities to. Looks like we'll have him for the majority of the season as well, not just half of it.

I'd imagine this is a Collins replacement if he goes. Not bothered if he goes or not to be honest. One of the most frustrating rovers players I've seen. I was thinking the same if not his replacement competition for Collins they may even choose to develop him as a No 9 to challenge Marquis

What is the deadline for Vale to be involved at Charlton tomorrow night Usually you have to have the appropriate paperwork signed by midday the day before a game. So following that, he would have had to have signed by midday today.

What is the deadline for Vale to be involved at Charlton tomorrow night I think it is 12 noon on the day before the match. Maybe Wael signed him up at Stamford Bridge yesterday, and we've yet to announce it?

I hope this turns out to be a great signing, but sounds like he is competing for AM/10/11 role which we have good cover for. Can we get a DCM please! With Cox, Crama and Vale playing does that mean no more loanees on the pitch at the same time?

Thought it was 5 loans u could have in a match day squad EFL rules permit clubs to register up to seven loan players this season, but as you say, clubs are only permitted to name five in each individual match-day squad.
