Tyrique George

We've already got a player who only cost £32m and contributed 10 and above in 2 seasons.

He's coming back to Chelsea when his loan is up.

😂
A 79th minute waste time sub for Kane today in a 4-0 win. Kane scored two Jackson scored nada. He can't in ahead of Gnabry let alone 'arry.

He could be back by November if he keeps going like this.

That is a disgusting thing to say....

Honestly, I expect better from you. We don't need such filthy talk on here....

 
Not been in a match day squad since October. Is he injured or do we just assume he’s out the door this January to cover Clearlake’s inability to manage a budget or attract sponsorship?

I'm pretty sure we are trying to sell him in January.

But he has been involved since October, albeit not much, and not in the PL, which I assume is what you meant with the October reference ?

  • Qarabağ 5th Nov - started (played 45 mins)
  • Barcelona 25th Nov - came on as sub (for 7 mins)
  • Atalanta 9th Dec - on bench
  • Cardiff 16th Dec - started (played 45 mins)

I think George getting the gametime he did up till now shows that Maresca did in fact have control over the team as I'm pretty sure he was the only one who rated him.

I don't think that's true. With the way the owners and SDs call the shots, it could only have been a club decision to promote him to the first team squad (together with Acheampong)

There was even an article about it on the club website at the time :

Just wished we had only signed one of Gittens or Nacho and let this guy develop in his best position. Good player in the making.

So they called the shots to have him sold to Fulham, when that failed they forced Maresca to play him over the many options we had available? Did they also force Maresca to play him striker?

How come Josh didn't get the same treatment?

Point is if they didn't rate George, would he have been added to the first team squad ?

I think Maresca played him at striker to make a point to the sporting directors about his lack of decent striker options.

George will do a good job for someone, which is why Fulham were interested in the summer. No idea why Clearlake pulled the plug on that transfer ... it looks like a bad decision all round in hindsight. I imagine he'll be sold this month, or in the summer. He's a "pure profit" player, and we know the motivation and precedent for what happens to those with these owners. Probably happen to Reece James at some point too ....

Clearlake didn't pull the plug. Fulham did. They had George lined up to replace Harry Wilson if Leeds came for him. That didn't happen so George was no longer needed.

 
Bet Fulham are glad they kept Wilson and also signed Kevin. Both look a lot better than George.

No idea - but then we don't get much explanation for anything from Winstanley and Stewart !

It's not exactly as if Josh has been getting tons of minutes either, but maybe they consider he has ultimately got less competition at centre back than Tyrique has at left wing, plus a higher ceiling, and hence isn't on the sale list (yet) ?

Honestly, I think Marescaa's tactics have had a lot to do with the attacking players at the club. Palmer was prolific before he was crowbarred into the side and injured.

Strikers played 6ft under the bridge pitch and wingers with boots of treacle under the Italian.

Will defend George while he's at the club because I don't think we've really seen him given a decent chance in his best position. If you could have the summer again, who would you have signed? Garnacho, Gittens or kept Madueke? Is George better or worse than Quenda or whoever the wizz kid is arriving in the summer? George in the Portuguese league would light it up as Gittens did in the Bundesliga, is my take, given how much weaker it is...

Hope he survives a possible January cull.

I think it's relatively well understood that the SDs rate Acheampong and they don't rate George.

The former they are trying to retain, the latter they are trying to push out.

Josh didn't get many minutes because Maresca doesn't like him.

George's biggest problem is that BlueCo/S&W didn't pay anything for him vs the £40m they spent on Garnacho, the £48.5m they spent on Gittens

George is also on £7.5K a week vs £110K for Garnacho, and £108K for Gittens.

Tyrique isn't likely to get much of a look in when there is so much invested in other players in his position (none of whom look much better than he is btw). If he plays ahead of the others then the owners are going to start questioning the expensive transfer signings of the SDs ...

You could argue that in part BlueCo went out and signed Garnacho and Gittens because they didn't rate George, but have we really seen anything that either of them have done that George couldn't do with the same opportunity ? Personally I don't think so ...

Anyway, and as we all know, if it was up to me I'd just play Sterling LOL

On Josh, he has similar problem now that Fofana is fit. £75m to buy Wes, plus £200K a week wages. If he's fit (and the medics consent) then he plays. If he isn't, then in theory you'd think Josh would be next in line, but the SDs bought Tosin (free, but £120K a week wages) so who knows what the "plan" is LOL.

£120kpw lmao that has to include the 30% wage incentive for Champions League.

£85-90kpw definitely seems right. Looks like we just need to drop out of Top 4 to sell his arse.

Just going on what is on Capology ... usual caveats apply !

They think £120K pw is his base LOL. Bonuses on top 😂 . He certainly got a nice jump from the £40K he was apparently on at Fulham LOL
