The other two are academy products so don't expect SCIAG to praise Blackett.
I praise players who aren't from our academy all the time. John Swift, Matt Miazga, Lewis Baker, Ryan Bertrand, Lucas Piazon.
In all seriousness I think Blackett is absolutely fine (though I do wish he would stop trying to play up front) but we have three left backs who are performing at very similar levels. Blackett has three assists, while Obita has one goal, one assist, and created one own goal in over 100 minutes fewer. Jager acting like Blackett's departure will be comparable to losing Sigurdsson, Doyle and McCarthy at the same time is just silly, we won't notice he's gone. So I guess it will be like losing McCarthy.
So you only praise recent players with a Chelsea background?

I'm glad somebody spotted the joke.
I also like Roy Beerens and Joey van der Berg but obviously they have nothing in common.
