3 MIDFIELD PLAYERS THAT WILL IMPRESS IN THE 16/17 SEASON

1 - NATHANIEL CHALOBAH

 

  21 year old, Nathaniel Chalobah has always been on the fringes of bursting into the Chelsea main team, however it has not yet happened. Under new manager Conte, Chalobah may just be set to make that leap into the senior squad. After being with Chelsea from 2005, Chalobah was included in the Chelsea squad back in 2012, but never made an appearance. Several loan spells later brings us to the beginning of this season where the youngster has had a very good start to life under Conti. Impressive performances in preseason and coming up with a goal after a great determined run through the defence allowed him to fire the ball into the net.

  Conte certainly can help out the English talent and the fans should be on their toes with this potential Premier League star!

2 - DEMARAI GREY

  Yet another English talent who could have a glorious season in the Premier League. The 20 year old from Birmingham joined Champions Leicester City after they met his £3.7 million release clause in his contract. Grey has already made his debut in the Premier League and so has had a taster of what playing in the league requires. Last season with Leicester challenging for the league and Mahrez in incredible form, Demarai couldn't have been risked to play much games. However, this season we could see him come in for much more games and be given the chance by Ranieri to show what he can do and raise to the potential he has!

  Demarai Grey has fantastic quick feet and will always look to run at defences which will cause problems and free up space for Jamie Vardy. If he can look up and find Vardy, i'm sure Grey will be ranking up the assists and every Premier League side will be cautious of the young man.

3 - PIERRE-EMILE HOJBERG

  Formally of Bayern Munich, any Football Manager player will know of this kid and his potential. The Danish wonder kid can play the centre defensive midfield role excellently, he has fantastic vision and is willing the help out his team with all the 'dirty-work' of football. Southampton's new £12 million man could come straight into the line up as a replacement for Wanyama who let The Saints for Tottenham. Hojberg may only be 21 years old but if he can adapt to the physicality of the Premier League, he could be a star player.

 Do you agree with my potential midfield stars? Is it too risky for clubs to play youth in the Premier League? Let me know your thoughts and who you think is a star in the making!
