General Posted July 16, 2022 Share Posted July 16, 2022 Just perusing through some football sites and saw club have signed this young whippersnapper, aged 18 nicked from the Gooners. anybody know anything about him positive? is he a potential first team candidate or a loan army recruit - can’t think why we’d want more loanees anyway. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-11020457/Chelsea-sign-Omari-Hutchinson-18-year-old-forward-swaps-Emirates-Stamford-Bridge.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
venom2011 Posted July 17, 2022 Share Posted July 17, 2022 Apparently quite the talent but haven't seen him personally. He's definitely a Dev squad signing though so I'd guess he'll stay at the club for a season and maybe get some training with the first team occasionally.

Surely with a talent like that you create the space for him in the 1st team, especially considering he is a RW where we are light. You can bet Bayern are already monitoring him and looking for an opening. azpi28 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only problem with this is come the end of next season, if a Bayern come in with £10m offer we will be forced to negotiate if he doesn’t intend to extend his contract. Whatever happens this season is critical to retaining him. As for getting his “opportunity”, Musiala went straight for our youth team to the Bayern 1st team & is now a key player at 19. Hutchinson left Arsenal because Saka, Martinelli & Rowe were ahead of him in their development even though he was named on the bench 10x for the 1st team. With James, & Kante out indefinitely, Ziyech as good as on the outs, and Havertz looking lethargic, Potter will never get a better opportunity to blood in Chwukuemeka, Hutchinson & whatever talented RB we have in Cobham.

axman2526 Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 Give him a shot, Ziyech is out and Havertz should be too. Should be room on the bench at least. ducavis 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilH930 Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 Just watched the Academy highlights vs. Leyton Orient - this guy is good. Exciting on the ball, with end product. Can't wait to see him in the mens team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

timetowaste Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 We should look at getting him in the first team asap given the state of our attackers Bluesince66 and azpi28 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

axman2526 Posted October 20, 2022 Share Posted October 20, 2022 There has to be room now for him in the squad. Let's look at who are attacking options are: Mount - Key player, but would we be better served having him as our kost advanced attacking midfielder? Broja - Talented, good worker. Auba - goalscorer, cannot play 3 full games in a week. Sterling - out of form but playing in a forward role may help him... Pulisic - earned a start vs United imo. Ziyech - clearly not part of the plan Havertz - needs to be dropped. Carney - promising. If Mount moves in to his natural position as attacking midfielder that leaves us with Auba, Broja, Sterling, Pulisic and Carney for 3 positions. Room at least on the bench for Hutchinson.

azpi28 Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 If we sell Ziyech in January Hutchinson should be his replacement in the squad also I don’t know what Potter plans to do during the World Cup but hopefully he will have a good look at Hutchinson Nibs and General 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brigadeiro Mk II Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 He seems as individualistic & ball hog as they come judging from a few highlights I've seen, which at the moment may as well be useful to our squad as long as he doesn't get into the same tunnels as Pulisic. All in all I guess it wouldn't be the worst of things giving the lad a chance compared to our lacklustre/want-away options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilH930 Posted October 24, 2022 Share Posted October 24, 2022 He makes things happen and clearly is playing above the level he is currently fielded with. Very promising. It’s a massive step, and one we struggle with for young attackers. Odoi had all the promise as well but also struggled with final product (I have not given up on him yet). I’m a firm believe in if you are good enough you are old enough, and want to see him tested with the first team. We have nothing to lose. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
