Christian Atsu

[tonka1878]

This was the guy that put in tons of (mostly toothless) crosses against the USMNMNMNMNT in the World Cup.

He beat Beasley all day but the end product didn't result in anything.

Partly because of the man in your avatar.

Yeah, him and the Yank CB's had a good game that day. Ghana had a lot of chances, but the vast majority of them were off-target.

I think the game plan was what really made Atsu look bad there. All Ghana did was cross, no creativity at all.

Exactly. Just wait till he's had a few months with Bob. He''ll get better, It happened with Gerry and this kid is further in his development.

Just wait til he's slinging crosses at Lukaku's face and feet.

And it bounces 15 foot the wrong way

I've moved my probability of getting Atsu on loan up to 67%.

Let's make it happen Bob.

The level of optimism here is worrying

Out of all signings made or attempted so far, it's the only one we've not seen reported on the OS.

Keep hearing this is a done deal , any news ?
Terms agreed with the player etc.
The longer this takes it looks more than a loan deal.
Surely simple negotiations and then quick medical if it was just a year loan.
Looks promising, maybe even permanent. ...Hoping !

It won't be permanent. Would make no sense from Chelsea's point of view.

At 4.40 on this interview Martinez is asked about Atsu - doubt the question would have been raised by in house media if not close to being complete.

Mmm...plenty have said that about Lukaku.
Maybe loan with view to buy.

Lukaku was sold because Mourinho and him didn't get on. Atsu hasn't even played for them yet and is a definite talent.

I think any fee would be out of our price range.

Definite talent? Not even a little bit, theres no way anybody can tell if he can cope in this league.

@MoutsGoat Besic in your avatar looks like a cross between Vito Corleone and Brick Top. I can't wait to see the lad in action.
