2021/22 Jean-Philippe Gbamin

It’s just nice to see the guy playing football after the nightmare he’s been through. Not sure he will get a chance to prove he can cut it here mind-think he will be out the door soon enough.

I actually thought he was alright when he came on, put himself about. Once or twice he got dispossessed was because he got doubled up on in a congested midfield, which Chelsea were doing all game and not just to Gbamin.

Genuine question- is there a reason why he’s not getting serious game time for the u23’s - looks completely ring rusty which is to be expected but I don’t see how throwing him for 10 mins here and there in quick premier league games is going to help

I would. On the rare occasions where he's been healthy he's looked physically imposing. Let him get his fitness up. I guess we're so thin right now? Dunno.

He was dreadful for 5 minutes then got stuck in.

He's needed minutes, u23s or 1st team he needs minutes ffs. 25m player and 10 injuries and not getting a game

 

[Sheedy's right knee.]

I thought he looked the best I’ve seen him. Much better than Wolves, Again I’m baffled why he had been overlooked in favour of Delph.

He looked a bit sharper than he did in the wolves match. He's been out for around 2 years so he needs games and minutes. I'd like us as supporters to keep our powder dry until he plays enough games to be truly evaluated.

 

[Misa]

Looks off the pace and unsure of what to do. Given that he hasn't played in so long, reserve judgement till he gets more minutes.

 

[Del-boy]

Two years out, not surprised. Why he hasn’t been played in the under 23’s to get match fitness I can’t work out.

 

[BlueStevie35]

It’s criminal he’s not getting minutes for the U23s, I’m sure there’s a rule that teams can have 1-2 overaged players. Even playing him as an over player for the Papa John’s Trophy games.

 

[Armaghtoffee]

Thought he looked OK after a shaky first few minutes. Has a bit of pace too which is much needed in the middle.

There is a spot to be claimed alongside Doucoure and Allan and would be good to see him claim it.

 

[Eggs]

….very encouraged by that little cameo, he looked like Fellaini at one point. Perhaps there is a player there that we can utilise.

 

[sageyefc]

Must be his longest spell without an injury since he’s been here

 

[BlueInNZ]

Give the lad a break, he did alright and played his part in getting a point.

 

[dublinbluenose]

Desperately needs 3 or 4 games just to get used to playing again. 5 mins here and there is useless. If he's crap we need to find out.
