Christian Atsu

[Reddish-Blue 2,212]

Surprised to see Atsu playing CM...maybe he could eventually be part of a 3 man midfield at Chelsea?

Him coming to play here as a centre mid would answer a lot of questions I had about this transfer.

He had another good game for Vitesse today, and was unlucky not to bag himself a goal as he hit the post twice. I like him and think he's made for the PL.

what position do you think suits him best?

Not sure, he played out wide today and owned it. He's a bit like Hazard, but obviously not as technical, but stronger defensively.

[CHOULO19 24,332]

He's been playing at CM the entire season, but he just had an excellent 80 mins on the left wing. Everyone talks about Piazon and Traore, as they should because they are fantastic talents, but from the ten or so Vitesse matches I've seen this season, Atsu has been the standout performer among the three, imo. Even when Vitesse had a slump in the past month and were playing poorly, he maintained his level of performances.

Seems like it's all about Atsu especially this second half of the season for Vitesse. Apparently just had a great match for them and scored a goal too.

Yeah, Piazon has gone missing in the second half of the season and Traore still looks very raw and really needs to work on his off ball work from what I've seen, but Atsu has been consistently good. I really like him in central midfield, but I also like him on the left wing. Very versatile. Could be the perfect squad player.

Interesting which 1 of our loaned out am makes the squad nxt season mmm

[mccg 1,528]

Scored again today in 4-3 defeat

[mccg 1,528]

Hazard-Oscar-Schurrle-Salas-Willian-Atsu nice attacking midfield unit 2014/15

[CHOULO19 24,332]

He'd be the perfect squad player because he can cover all over midfield. But I think a season more on loan. He's really settled at Vitesse right now and he's been one of their key players if not the key player for them this season. No point recalling him just to make the bench a hand full of times.

[Eidur the Spider 4,515]

Player of the season for Vitesse!

[CHOULO19 24,332]

Deservedly so. Has been their best and most consistent player. Big statement this over the likes of Piazon and Traore who are supposedly much bigger prospects.

[mccg 1,528]

I think he will take up slot 6 of our am, Jose mentioned that 1 of loanees would take up the space,Interesting i think its tossup between Moses(maybe sold)and him think Hazard jnr will get a harder loan assignment nxt season,Markin will b sold,Piazon another loan also.But looking at the age of the am think they will there for afew years to come !!!

Traore is a bigger prospect than Atsu? Says who?

But you are right about consistency. Piazon was the best Eredivisie player in the first half of the season. In the second half he's been horrid.

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.

[BlueLyon 9,359]

Atsu is older and more experienced than Bertrand...its normal he was more consistent.
