He was born in Germany and has a German mother. Also, he left pre-Lampard when none of the academy boys got into the team. 🤷‍♂️

At least we have salvaged a 25m buy-back clause from a dire negotiating position - hoping he has just gone to get playing time which is understandable.

Buy-back was confirmed to be more than 40m. Might still be a fair price in a few years, we'll see

In the Nathan Ake range. I am okay with that. At least gives options

But ain't he on loan from Fiorentina with obligation to buy in 2022?

Yes, he is basically Juve player.

At the time he was the fireworks of the show when he played. If we had sold him to Byern, it would have been unacceptable. Along with that injury and now be accompanied by genuinely World Class potential in Havertz, Ziyech ect... he looks bang average. He definitely has something in him but seems to have lost the key to unlock the doors post injury.

Man I wish I had a quid for every time I've heard the "He's not the same since the injury.", rationale. It's simply not true. Calum is every bit as good now as he ever was. As I and others stated at the time, giving him a big contract was ridiculous given he has achieved precisely nothing so far. He should have been sold instead.

I still refuse to believe CFC have him on £6m a year by the way. No chance.

Yes no one knows better how good player is and if they are worth big contract than random guy on internet. 🤣 Yes 21 year old wanted by one of the best teams in Europe in Munich according to you is destined for Crystal Palace surely forum not big enough for your wisdom why aren't you coaching Chelsea or England's yooth teams ?😂

I'm too old to be bothered by nonsense like this and I certainly won't engage with it. If it makes you happy knock yourself out.

You make statement about CHO I disagree isn't that what forum is for ?. A 21 year old boy full England international has bad injury sees other players go in front of him while injured of course confidence will be low so form is not great I think understandable in circumstance. He would get into nearly all other Prem teams and several in Europe yet you think he's rubbish and should be on scrapheap why ?

Players Bayern Munich signed in the last few windows:

 

Marcel Sabitzer

christian Früchtl

Omar Richards

Bouna Sar

Marc Roca

Michael Cuisance

Choupo-Moting

 

You know what they have in common? They are all bang-average at best. CHO in current form would have been another example of this transfer policy.

Bayern don't mind and can afford to buy shit players and hope they eventually turn out good when they usually dont and have them sit on the bench for a few years or loan them out, treat them as cashcows or to make up the number if not. They just don't care.

Also I think they wanted to buy CHO to piss us off. They hate us after all and love to poach and tap up.

So their interest in CHO - irrespective of his talent or potential - does not make him a good player at all.

Wow you know a lot about Bayern do you support them ?. Again I'm not going to write off a young man I'm lucky enough to have ticket for Villa game I will tell you how CHO play if he does you can tell me how Michael Cuisance play 👍

Hmm I think he lost a little explosiveness that made him electrifying when first bursting onto the scene. He had a snappy quickness to his game.. now he struggles to beat a man. Maybe it's confidence.. who knows.
