Madmax 9,219 Posted April 30, 2014 Share Posted April 30, 2014 Says the fact that he went on tour with us. He did have a great preseason and his talent is undoubted, but he's still very very 'rough' and needs a lot of work. Especially off the ball. Vitesse couldn't play him as a winger because of that and he ended up as a striker. Going on preseason means sweet fuck all. Traore is what, 18-19 and a reserves/youth player while Atsu has been at Porto. Don't know how anybody could consider Traore a better prospect. That's not taking anything away from Traore or his talent, of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gr123 167 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 Let's face it, this guy was never bought to be part of our team. Buy cheap, hope he impresses on loan, sell for £10m. It's like printing money. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amblève. 4,995 Posted May 14, 2014 Share Posted May 14, 2014 I'm probably off but Atsu reminds me of what Malouda could have been if he was used as a hybrid winger-midfielder. Pacey, good technique, great dribbling, defensively aware. Not a player that will "wow" you but one that is solid allround and efficient in his actions.

Reddish-Blue 2,507 Posted June 17, 2014 Share Posted June 17, 2014 Atsu needs playing time...being Chelsea's 6th attacking midfielder will do f*ck all for his developmentAt least if we loan him out to a more competitive league (Germany maybe?) and he does well, it would increase his 'value' in the market Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
