Position: Midfielder
A bit of a soft addition in the 2012 list, but it must be remembered that Josh McEachran is still only 18 years old. He turns 19 in March. Calm and collected on the ball, McEachran’s vision is what makes him stand apart from his central midfield counterparts. Another FA Youth Cup Winner, in 2010, McEachran’s elevation to the Chelsea first team has seen him make several European and late Premier League appearances this term.
A loan move beckons in the New Year, and regular football will do him a world of good. McEachran needs consistent pitch time in order to catalyse his young career, because sitting on a bench and flirting with Reserves football isn’t going to get him where he deserves to go. Next issue – getting Stuart Pearce to realise his potential.
