Christian Atsu

[Groucho]

He pays £20 to subtract ten Reputations points at a time, off me. Me.

Let me tell you what I do for fun. I say disreputable things, then people dock me reputation points. I then say more disreputable things, because I am stupid. I don't give a fk about my reputation.*

That makes him a mug. I deliberately selected a wrong-coloured one, just for him.

*Apologies to Martin Scorsese and Joe Pesci.

And in doing so you're also taking the mick out of all of our subscribed members.

If that's what you do for fun then bye.

 

[Groucho]

Folks, it's safe to discuss Atsu btw.

 

[kithnou]

I would like to give him a run in the team. I feel since returning he looked more confident. Great pace and enthusiasm.

 

[ElGato]

Too many 'are they decent, are they kack, don't see enough of them' players. Give him a run out I reckon... although clearly looks better off the bench atm.

 

[MACCA75]

Time for this man to step up to the plate and deliver now.

Him, Osman and Naismith behind Lukaku for me.

 

[scratchnsurf]

Isn't that 2 assists in his last 2 appearances?

 

[Jozzy]

Would like to see him start tonight!

I swear I've been saying this most games for the last couple of weeks now hahaha.

Sort of. The one against Leicester isn't counted as it ended up being an OG.

As good as though. Hope he does well and features a lot til the end of the season, the poor lad's loan spell has been absolutely cursed.

looked far more capable of producing something than Lennon.

Did you watch the game? Produced a penalty and a red card.

 

[LinekersLegs]

looked far more capable of producing something than Lennon.

However Lennon looks like he'll provide far more cover for his fullback, he even made a defensive clearance in our box the other day.

Depending on the opponent/state of the game we need both skills, ideally in the same player. But since that is difficult to find will be happy if they both perform well and we use whichever one is best suited to the circumatances.

 

[kylehyde]

was hardworking sure, but I think you guys could do with someone with a bit more quality, his end product just isnt that good IMO

editLL guess if you put it that way, he could turn into a good replacement for Pienaar.

 

[marty mcfly]

Since we're more than likely going to play on the counter, McGeady is just coming back from injury and Mirallas is out I think there's a good chance Atsu will play.

 

[Khalekan]

As for Atsu, haven't seen enough for him really to make a decision on how good he is.

I think we have seen enough now to want him given a wee chance to impress.

Earlier in the season he was being pillioried by the knee jerkers on the strength of the Palace and Krasnadar games.

 

[Mogwai]

Would you take Him in the summer?
