Quagga Posted May 8 Share Posted May 8 Still only 20, but seems to have vanished at Chelsea. Even their latest news on him is from Aug 2023 https://www.chelseafc.com/en/teams/profile/dylan-williams I know his bank account is better off, but surely he must wonder how much more he might have learnt as player if he'd stayed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ghost of Clough Posted May 8 Share Posted May 8 Captained their U21s a few times. Interestingly, he's mostly been used on the left of a back 3 this season Quagga 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

InstaRam Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 28 minutes ago, Srg said: Why though? Seemed to have many qualities that would have fit our current style (athletic, engine). Knows the place, seemed appreciated and may need a fresh start. Probably won't make it at Chelsea but could still be good. Think he looked good the little he played here earlier.

angieram Posted May 27 Share Posted May 27 He's currently at the Barcelo in Corralejo, Chelsea can't be paying him much - I've been there a couple of times! InstaRam, Day and RoyMac5 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ambitious Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 A very good signing from Burton Albion - although very clearly hasn't progressed too well at Chelsea. Burton have done a lot of good work in the transfer market this season, suspect they're going to be a dark horse for a play-off run albeit in a very tough league.

They’ve done good work but they’re such a young team now. They’re clearly hoping someone hits and they make big profit, but not sure how you gel so many kids like they’ll have to with basically no experience.

Magicman Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 He left us and has wasted 2 years at Chelsea sorry he is not coming back now. whiteroseram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
angieram Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 If he'd stayed at Derby he'd have been a regular last season. Classy young player, wonder how much this has stalled his development? Zag zig, Indyram, Quagga and 3 others 3 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are plenty of young players that do do well at Chelsea. Quagga 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimbobram Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 Why don't these kids learn? Sign for the elite clubs, who don't care about you or your progress and then spit you out when you haven't turned into a wonder kid. Him and Malcom have both wasted 2 years. They could have had 2 full seasons under their belt and actually improved. Premier ram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When he left Rooney said in an interview that he'd told him he couldn't turn down the opportunity, so it probably gave him the relevant nudge as this indicates he was in two minds. Not the best advice probably if you already have first team football at a decent level on tap. jimbobram 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thought it was a rather silly move on his part after getting an appreciative support and first team games after being a foot ball nomad. Could say that about Allsopp as well who clearly impressed at Hull just as much via Cardiff who must also have been impressed. Have we been paid for Malcolm by our best friends in football by the way, or are they still thinking about another offer 2 years after their superb 30 k opening gambit.

Well yes, that’s why he’s going to Burton and the threads in the Ex-Rams section. Who said he was coming back? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rample Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 Be interesting to see what he has learned and how he has developed. With the likes of Chelsea you must get a higher level of coaching even at U21 level. He'll now be getting regular first team football and is still only 20, and I'd guess in the next few years he'll be back in the championship. Only time will tell if it was a good move for him or us. Had he not left when he did he would have probably ended up leaving shortly after for Palace or somewhere. Its not like those players have achieved much either. Maybe Archie Brown as a direct comparison shows that playing actual games is the better pathway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
