With Chelsea sending a ridiculous 33 players out on loan this season, here’s our attempt at a strongest XI of Blues cast-offs, featuring Juan Cuadrado…
GK: Matej Delac (Sarajevo)
A Croatian youngster who has been loaned out EIGHT times since moving to Chelsea all the way back in 2010.

An impressive young defender, Tomas Kalas is unfortunate not to be in the Blues’ first-team set up, and is now in a second stint at Middlesbrough.
DC: Michael Hector (Reading)
Signed this summer and immediately loaned back to his old club Reading, Michael Hector becomes the latest Chelsea player in the loan wilderness.
DC: Nathan Ake (Watford)
On loan at Premier League new-boys Watford this season, Nathan Ake is a good prospect but could face a struggle to get into Jose Mourinho’s first-team plans.
