This young kid looks special to me

 

Nice vid - this guy could become more dangerous for our opponents than Covid-19.

Very excited about this guy. Going forward when Giroud leaves would love to see Tammy, Broja and another striker as our 3.

I don’t know, because I just saw the first three minutes of it, and the goalkeepers were just dreadful in allowing just about all  of his goals, so the jury is still out for me.

He seems to have a good football brain a turn of speed and knows where the goal is. For me he looks a natural.

I remember him coming on as a sub last season late on a match and he took the ball cleverly going past his defender, thought straight away he had something so was pleased to find this clip today.

I think we will see more of him, seems to know where to run when a cross comes over too.

I think that was this season that he made his debut as a sub, but it sure does feel like a lifetime ago!

Anyone kept an eye on Broja in Vitesse. Currently starting no.9 and helping Vitesse to 2nd in the league (2pts behind Ajax). 5 goals in 10 starts and looks real deal. Decent compilation of some of his play here : https://www.bing.com/videos/search?q=armando+broja&&view=detail&mid=13289C9880E5698A83A913289C9880E5698A83A9&&FORM=VRDGAR&ru=%2Fvideos%2Fsearch%3Fq%3Darmando%2Bbroja%26FORM%3DHDRSC4

 

Seems to be falling on the Mason Mount side of Vitesse Loanees rather than the Lucas Piazon side.

Not me yet agree he looks a decent prospect.

Looks a strong prospect, links play well and seems to be creative in finishing. Very much moulded in Tammy but hopefully at 6ft 3 and fairly big for 19 will have strength and hold up play of Giroud.

And not get his legs tangled up everytime he gets the ball (Tammy)   :0)

And be there when the ball goes across the penalty box from a perfect cross, for a tap in..  (unlike Tammy)

Tammy is there. He just misses the f**king thing 

I hope bangs in a perfect hat trick to make us all look like mugs in his next match now!

Considering my habits, I could well be misremembering this, but I did enjoy that his first touch in a Chelsea shirt in a senior game was skying a shot from about 45 yards out.

Broja was a standout in the Academy, and I hope he makes the grade here.  I think he has a better chance to do so if Frank stays in charge

Set for a new deal and TT is looking to involve him on the squad.

Dont think we in particular should rush to discount him. Plenty of fans though Mount and James were not cutting it and now look at them.

Not every youth player will make it of course but Broja does seem to have a varied skill set so that helps.

He looks to be two-footed, so that's a plus.  Tall and fast, what more can you ask for?

I looked at him on You tube a while back, he looks good though not sure he is that fast...........

I done some YT viewing, the Kid looks like he has something about him, Pacy, skillfull, and and eye for goal.

We know he’ll go  out on loan again….🤔

Was that Broja or Anjorin? Can't remember

Anjorin…. I do believe 

He looked alright last night. He's a big lad and even at 19 already looks quite physically imposing. 

I think there's a good chance of him being 3rd choice striker this season but would be curious to see how he did playing regular football out on loan for a season. 

Ironically a team like Bournemouth might suit him. 

He could score 20 goals in pre season and he'd still probably go out on loan. Would love to see him in the squad for this season

Worked hard off the ball as well last night. Made a difference when coming on.

second half team looked like those that will probably leave or go on loan.

Looks like he could be off to Southampton on loan.

Will be following them more closely now with Livramento and potentially Broja there as well.

 

Southampton would be a good move for him, though I doubt he'd be a direct replacement for Ings.
