What's new

Jeremie Boga

Watched this kid last year and he was absolute quality (IMO). Was arguably one of the best in the U21 team at the age of 15/16. Seems abit weird that there isn't enough buzz around this guy as he really does look something special. Or am i just being a bit of an idiot here and overreacting?

He's been injured until recently, I believe. 

Agree that he looks v special. Great close control and composure when on the ball and can see a pass too.

 
Think we all over react a bit when we see youngsters having great games. I've done it myself enough with players like Tore, Stoch, Sala and McEachran. Boga looks like the latest one but he is only 17 and as good as he looks in some matches, other games pass him by.

Watched him in the U21 match against Arsenal last night and although he had some decent moments he certainly didn't stand out and in fact last night none of our youngsters looked like they had anything that made you feel they would be a first team player at some point in the future. We lost 1-0 in extra time but had enough possesseion and chances to have won the game.

 
Agree with your comments Nibs, another game like those two youth cup final games last year, plenty of possession and chances to have won three games let alone one.

 
Derby are playing QPR this evening, so might be one to watch.

 
Nice little preseason so far for him. I expect he'll play for the youth side this year but am really liking how he's developed so far.

 
That goal last night was stunning and he has done plenty of that sort of thing at youth and reserve level.

He is inconsistent, but all this type of player always will be - look at Hazard. Would love to see him carry on with the reserves but get a place on the first 11 bench from time to time as he could be a real impact player in tight matches.

 
I'm desperate for one of our youngsters to cement their place in the starting line-up soon, Boga looks like he could do so along with a few others I've seen.

 
Two well taken goals against Everton and the lad is clearly a match-winner. Right now, out of all of our young prospects, he looks to have that something special that might just mean he could make it into the first team, but we all know by now not to get carried away. Would like to see him and possibly the likes of Baker and Ake at least feature in the Bolton League Cup game.

 
Any updates on Boga this season?

I lost Chelsea TV and have been unable to keep up to date.

 
The thing that bugs me about Boga is that he is rarely picked in the French national youth sides and Jose has never singled him out for praise. He just seems so talented otherwise. I think this is worth a thought...

 
That really is a fair point. I'm mean he scores bags of goals and runs through players as if they are not there.

I'm wondering if he has been talked into holding out for becoming eligible for England although I can't understand why he'd want to haha.

Supremely talented lad and I'm sure I'll be shot for saying this but at times reminds me of a certain Gianfranco Zola.

 
He stood out in the UEFA final causing all kinds of problems for their defense.

We have stacks of telent in the youth teams, so hopefully they get a run out if win the league before the end.

 
Boga along with Musonda where instrumental in taken control of M/F in the semi final & final winning EUFA youth league title trophy teams,
