Conte is to give Baba a second chance 

So he doesn't want/need him in 16/17, he goes out on loan and gets injured, yet he'll be given a chance in 17/18? Hmm... You wonder when he got the chance to impress the manager.

Anyway, it would save money which could be used for more important signings. Question is if he's good enough. But then again, he'll probably only be a deputy if true.

Wing back position is his real position under Mourinho he was use has a full back he did have one or two good games last season  I think we should give another chance has u say it will save us money

I dont think Conte planned to use wing backs this season he started with a 4-1-4-1 probably thinking he could get it to work but since the change to 3-4-3, hell he gave Moses a chance so why not Baba?

Thats what I was thinking, but Baba tore his ACL like Zouma did. Its gonna be hard for Baba to force his way to the side, like we have seen with Kurt.

I still remember that game against PSG away. I think he can be decent LWB

[RoyalBlues 4,050]

Maybe a chance to impress in preseason first. Too early to say he will involve in the squad for next season.

Conte turned Moses and Alonso in class wing backs for us. Moses who didn't even start for Liverpool and West Ham and Alonso who, in England, played for f'ing Bolton and Sunderland. How skeptical are we when we signed him?

Conte should definitely take a look at Baba because I think he could turn out be another great option for us as LWB.

Better be for at least £15m or another pointless signing we'll make a loss on. Although I think he has good potential to be a half decent option at LWB for us but if not, recuperate most of the money we spent on him please...

Most likely never. Was a shit signing from the very beginning. still we paid way too much for an average player after needlessly having sold far superior talents in Filipe Luis and Ryan Bertrand. Then got buyers remorse and instead of giving hima shot and believing in him loaned the shit out of him, forgot about him and he will never play for us again. Probably will never recoup his value either.

I totally forgot we had him on our books.

i remember reading last year that he was really good in schalke until the injury. if he can recover properly he can be a decent back-up for alonso until next year when will we pursuit another lwb.

He is not a bad player at all. Just an average talent with very good athletic abilities. He could well become a decent player if given the chance to play regularly again. Wingback would be the perfect position for him as he is not outstanding defensively nor offensively but can run all day long. He would be a decent backup for Alonso. But truth is he should not even be at this club. If our board wasn't so short-sighted and strategically incapable, we would still have Bertrand here who is far superior. The LB/LWB has been a mess since Ash was demised and we know who is responsible. Baba Rahman being here is just a symptom of the disease.

He is still injured then?
