Ruben Loftus-Cheek
Stuart Pearce’s former job as England’s Under-21 boss showed that he loves nurturing young English talent, so why not add someone like 18-year-old Ruben Loftus-Cheek? Despite not playing any first-team football, he’s highly rated at Chelsea and could have a very bright future at the club and as part of the England set-up.
Standing a 6″4, Loftus-Cheek is a foreboding box-to-box midfielder that is always on a pivot, willing to receive the ball anywhere on the pitch and keep play ticking whilst also having the ability to pick out the perfect pass. He might only be young but he’s a special talent that has that winning mentality and if allowed to get experience on loan would add extra quality to their midfield that suffered with injuries late in the season.
