Tiemoue Bakayoko

[manpe 10,861]

That's good, if he improves his performances he might draw some serious interest from outside. My only worry is that if he starts playing well for an extended period (especially before transfer windows), then our board will keep him. So I hope he plays well enough to lure buyers, but not well enough for the board to keep him.

 Baka is one of AC Milan’s key players this month.

It will be pointless keeping him because Sarri would never play him in competitive circumstances.

Our board tends to show irrational amount of patience towards expensive signings. Probably don't want to let their investments go to waste for a loss.

EDIT: Just realized the guy is 24 already. Can't play the young card anymore, he should be hitting his peak soon. Lost cause.

Im not to sure they do, with the exception of Torres we have never stuck with flops for very long, even Roman's mate was frozen out after a season anc dumped after two.

Who was this Roman's mate? Zhirkov?

There's no debate.  That video looked better than most of his matches here, but it's still full of taking too many touches and late tackles.  He would be even worse under Sarri-ball.  No debate, he can leave.  I wish him all the best, nothing against him personally.  But, it would be better for his career to be at a different club.

Yes, and I really do wish him well, I loved his attitude even when he was getting (rightly so) shit on all over.

Fucking shame he didnt work out here

Bakayoko continues road to redemption with Man of the Match award at Milan

[Johnnyeye 7,441]

despite his recent improvement im afraid his time at Chelsea is done, cant see him coming back here, altough i would like if it worked out for him here, not sure if he would fit in to Sarri's football, but if he comes back a much improved footballer i dont see why not it cant work out. We'll see what happens at the end of the season, if Milan want to keep him or not, we can try to recoup most of the money we spent on him. I wish him all the best regardless, i dont blame him for his failure at Chelsea, i blame our stupid board and the way he was handled here.

[Special Juan 27,428]

No man of the match awards could do him enough justice, he's like Alonso, very average and if we are to kick on and be anything like we should he shouldn't be coming back here.

This is the problem now, we are lagging behind City due to the sheer average players we buy, have hanging around or out on loan.

Trim the shite out of the team and buy the quality needed for fucks sake.

I on the other hand don't see how it CAN work out. He is not a player for teams who want to play quick possession football. I have seen enough of him to know that even if he does generally improve dramatically, his characteristics and playing style anyway aren't suitable for a team that wants to play on the front foot. A player so technically lacking at that age will never improve to required levels.

[Clockwork 1,794]

I am his biggest fan right now, don't want him back at Chelsea but every good performance makes it more likely we recoup this disaster signing. 

[robsblubot 3,504]

Only on talk chelsea folks compare Bakayoko with Alonso... 

Bakayoko has no first touch, which is the reason he needs to go to a place where he has the time to chase the ball after his "first touch" fails.
