Gaël Kakuta

[francozola 2,040]

Yeah, and then you remember this is the same club that rejected Cristian Erikson when he was 15. 4 years later, we're back chasing him

Really? :doh:

Really? :doh:

Yeah! His dad had a right go as well, saying no teenage should ever join Chelsea

lmao. he's probably right

[TacticalBlues 2,817]

tbh I really don't care where he goes on loan now. As long as we have a manager that will give him time to show the disbelievers what he can do. When he proves himself in Ligue 1, and people say they still not sure yet they call for Hazard to be our top target, I will personally go to your house and slap you around the face.

Dijon coach says André has to convince the board to allow the loan to that club. Kakuta seems to be set on Dijon too, he's likely to play there.

Was training with the first team today:

Any chance he can feature against portsmouth in the FA?

I'd guess the sooner he settles at his next club the better.

[zolayes 14,489]

'anymore'. When did we ever have one?

'anymore'. When did we ever have one?

we have a consisent youth policy for a while now

buy expensive ....talk them up ....loan them out ......sell or give away ...then repeat the cycle

[Peace. 4,352]

^ I hope he goes to Dijon. He really needs an environement where he is "loved" to blossom. And Dijon seems to be this place.

[zolayes 14,489]

doubt if we will recover the money we have spent on him

[Clevemayer 764]

this boy is 20 :facepalm:

[lentherussian 86]

What i cant understand thouh, is i was there on his debut and can honestly say i havent been as impressed by anyone at cfc as much as when he came on. Breath of fresh air, no nerves and pace and skill in spades. Cant help but think lack of chances kill players ability. Start to try to hard, lose confidence, no momentum.

[ZanSnake 1,211]

An example of the talent of the youth we have, but the wrong mishandling on part by the club to nurturue them into our core system.

[zolayes 14,489]

I wonder what TX thinks of this loan move ...he always had plenty to say about Gael ,,,,does he still blame Yossi for "killing him"

[Kostas 1,468]

Good thing he opted for Dijon. Can't imagine what the people at the club were thinking agreeing to sent him to the Greek league.

[Tomo 21,685]

The next 2 years are make or break for him.

Funny thing was for Fulham he started twice, at Old Trafford and the Stadium of light, impressed in both and scored at the SOL, even United fans were quietly impressed with him at OT. Started twice for Bolton, at Villa Park impressed and scored and impressed when he started at The Emirates aswell. So i still believe either Hughes or Coyle took a chance and thought fuck it lets give this kid some game time we could be sitting pretty in terms of his development right now.

22-23 is when the late developers start breaking through (IE Cleverly, Pedro, hopedully Bertrand next season) if Djon proves a good move and he gets confidence then a prem club take him on loan and actually play him i still reckon we have a player on our hands.

Keep the faith

I'm 100% sure that is not what we pay him. He gets less than 75k pounds per week although I do not remember the actual number.

€160,000 per month divded by 4 = €40,000 per week....£33,125 per week
