OneMoSalah 8,886 Posted July 7, 2020 Share Posted July 7, 2020 6 hours ago, killer1257 said: The "fuss" was brought by Sarri. If he just gave CHO a fair chance after his great pre season and after his performance against City in the cup final, in which he was our best offensive player, he would have signed a new contract with less money. But because Sarri did not give him a fair chance, it is normal for players to look at what other options there are. Lamptey did not sign a new contract because he knew he will not be given a fair chance and he left us. Lamptey knows that Azpi will be a starter for at least one more season and after that RJ is next in line because he was our captain at youth level. Boga was the same. Boga played two great pre seasons and never got a chance under Mou and Conte gave him his debut and our former Captain, Leader, Legend Cahill got a red card after couple of minutes and Boga was subbed off. He never got a chance after that again. It is normal that you want to look for other options when you are not given a fair chance. Gesendet von meinem VOG-L29 mit Tapatalk Your forgetting Boga only got a chance due to injuries/suspensions in that game and the club was always looking to move him on regardless. He was never ever going to be a member of the squad because Conte had wanted Kyle Walker who he didnt get and ended up getting Zappacosta eventually to give him options at RWB. Plus if that red card never happened Andreas would probably never have gotten the opportunity to play as soon, where he eventually ended up cementing himself as a first team regular for the first half of the season putting in very good performances. Also anyone who expected Sarri to play CHO regularly at the start had to be out of their minds. He was only playing so much in pre season because Eden and Willian both weren't there as they were at the WC then got an extended break. He even used Piazon and Moses in pre season as we were short of wide options. killer1257 and Johnnyeye 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post! BigMabz 61 Posted July 15, 2020 Popular Post! Share Posted July 15, 2020 REALLY needs to crack on. I know he is post injury (and a big one at that), but with the potential of losing Willian and Pedro already gone it would be fantastic is CHO could play a Pedro role or more in terms of playing time this next season. Big season for him next year. Forget a summer vacation, crack on mate. Mana, Johnnyeye, Vesper and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Special Juan 28,139 Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 I predicted similar days ago, he wants to be starting at especially next season there is no guarantee at all, there is going to be serious competition and TBH I just cannot see him staying, whether it's sold or loaned.

It says CHO may consider offers to leave but won't force a move. And it's from The Independent.

I know. But he looked like he wanted to prove a point. Defensively and Offensively. Point being, if that shot had gone in, we would be saying "really good". But do agree, it was pleasing to see the effort and some of the play. killer1257 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm reading comments here about his passing not being good and/or that he's edgy and a bit too inclined to go for glory. These are symptoms of a lack of confidence. In development games, where it was clear to everyone, Callum included, that he was a standout, his passing was a big positive and his decision making was calm and cool eyed. He didn't need to prove that he belonged at that level and, as a result, he proved it all of the time. Look, for example, at his pass for Tino's goal in the 2018 Youth Cup Final. I was behind the goal at the far end that night, but you could see from the moment Callum picked up the ball that he already knew the pass he was going to play 30 metres later. When the pass came, its timing, weight and angle were absolute perfection. Look too at his performance in the U17 World Cup Final earlier that season. Phil Foden scored twice and picked up man of the match, but it was Callum who produced the game's deciding performance. 46 minutes ago, Puliiszola said: if that shot had gone in, we would be saying "really good". That was one of the moments I liked from him. He was decisive, sharp and the shot was well struck, just misdirected. It could be argued that he should have squared the ball, but going for goal was a perfectly reasonable option. The chance was there and he can't be blamed for taking a pop. It would have been spectacular if it had gone in. Puliiszola 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hasnt done anything of note bar the game v Newcastle this season. Loaning him probably best move for both parties, especially if Havertz signs. Cant see Bayern being interested anymore and with a 5 year deal signed we have all the power now in terms of negotiations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomo 21,751 Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 Went a bit under the radar due to Pulisic's impact but I thought he was fantastic when he came on himself. The way he found Pulisic for the third goal with the ball in the air and him running at speed was sensational, that's end product we simply do not see from Willian (and I'm far from a Willian basher). He has to start with Pulisic Vs Wolves, even more so if we play 3atb again (as it will put less defensive emphasis on the wingers).

Or even those 2 wide in a 4231 with Willian, who can still offer something, as a 10 and push the wingers up on their right and left sided CBs.

Puliiszola 519 Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 Needs to start against wolves. Willian looks and feels like he is gassed. To be fair to him, I think he has started and played every minute since restart. It was bound to pile on Fernando and Supermonkey92 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
