July 30, 20232 yr Righto, my Rennes supporting buddy has come back with this which I'll translate into English: " Ugochukwu is made for the premier league. Like Timoue before he lost himself, but better for me. Strong, serene and very promising. A great pickup. " I was thinking of great until he compared him to Bakayoko. Now I'm hoping he's just trolling me... Bakayoko was great a Monaco but had Fabinho carrying him, I have to hope this lad isn't a similar situation.

Oh dear, this is exactly what I was thinking when I was watching the YouTube clips. Tall player that is rapid over short distances with long legs, can't keep his hands off the opposition. Prem players are just too cute for that. Let's loan him to Brighton to sweeten the Caicedo deal and let them get him Prem ready.
July 30, 20232 yr 15 minutes ago, just said: Quiz time. Who is the last Chelsea player we had named Leslie? Sparky

July 30, 20232 yr 21 hours ago, azpi28 said: Maybe the word that should be used is stature. It won't matter the value of a player until we sell him. we didn't know sh*t about Casadei when we signed him that's the only point i'm making I see. In that case agree with you then. Their profiles have certainly been enhanced and will be even more as long as they perform.
July 30, 20232 yr I don't think he goes on loan. I think the Caicedo deal is dead and we will need to keep him.
July 30, 20232 yr At least he's not a winger. One really needs to dig in the FM database to find this guy, maybe that's what our scouting team are doing. What's the plan for him, a year loan or straight into the team and hope he turns out to be some player?

Id like that to be the case, but I can see us getting him on deadline day for 105m and this guy going out on loan. Obviously we will mess it up and the loan paperwork won't be sealed.
July 31, 20232 yr Right am i crazy or watching this guy is he literally just Bakayoko 2.0? Someone tell me what they're seeing that i'm not without using some random FBref data chart.

July 31, 20232 yr So long as he doesn't have the same mentality as Bakayoko he'll be a good player. The tacticos on twitter are saying he has all the tools to be a very good DM but has a lot to polish out that only consistent game time can bring. Think he and Santos are a different but complementary.

August 1, 20232 yr I remember the last time a Ugo graced the PL. He weren't bad in his prime, let's hope our Ugo achieves more. Presumably being 1.91m his ceiling is pretty high
August 1, 20232 yr 1 hour ago, Valerie said: He will, legend in the making, I'm telling you Good, we need someone to show such love and dedication to people of our players as @Munkworthdid with Denis. Don't go the kidnapping route as @CaitlinCFCdid though, almost ended her relationship and left her with Munk as the only suitor...
August 1, 20232 yr It is official. https://www.chelseafc.com/en/news/article/ugochukwu-becomes-a-blue?fbclid=IwAR1YfjtBIxfmCetC2XO66U1Ori4MzPzm86AY194g4e2iMA0uc1J__Jnj3og
