Piazon has got to play in Eredivisie, Serie A, Bundesliga and Championship, 196 senior apps and 36 goals... I don't see that as missing out on a dream just because he didn't make it with his parent club... sounds like a fantastic lifestyle to me getting to play in all those places having come across from South America...What I've learnt from these boards is that the majority of people have no considerations in life beyond money, so based on that I expect that some will say that his time at Chelsea was worthwhile. Personally I find this incredibly sad, a young man with a failed career who's missed out on his dream simply to sign for a club like Chelsea. He'll probably never know what he might have achieved or how fulfilling his young life could have been. People will no doubt point out that he's probably earned £4-5M in his time there, but how's he going to cope when he's earning a tenth of that playing for Walsall or someone (If he makes it there)! When you take off taxes and the money he's no doubt blown simply because he was a kid with a big bank balance, what he has left certainly isn't going to keep him for the rest of his life and I doubt he know much about anything other than football
