He wasn’t crap at all - when he played, he was quality, unplayable at times. Unfortunately couldn’t stay fit, but don’t remember him ever being crap? But that's precisely my point - he was never bloody fit! "when he played, he was quality, unplayable at times" - other than the two games mentioned he never played! Total joke of a player. And we were fleeced by Chelsea - twice. They didn't fleece us at all. Definitely not the 2nd time when we knew exactly what we were signing. |

I'd suggest no to all 3. If he gets his fitness sorted out though he's an absurdly good footballer. |

Chalobah was bang average until we put him in defence after that bloke who strangled his missus left. Who strangled Chalobah's missus? I laughed at that more than I should. |

Could have been a fantastic signing Anjorin the 1st time.
2nd time it was like going back to a girl you'd pulled in Tokyos the previous week because she was all that was left that was worth the shag!

For him to suggest Chelsea fleeced us is absurd. |

Anjorin is a top level talent who unfortunately hasn't got the right physical attributes to make it. He'll be retired in 2-3 years. Chelsea didn't take the piss, we offered to pay good money for him when it should have been obvious that he was grossly unfit. I say 'obvious' because he must have been blowing out of his arse on the training ground after 10 minutes. He was nearly calling for an oxygen tank to be wheeled onto the pitch 5 minutes after appearing as a sub for us.

It wasn't a good decision ultimately but that's on Town and Town alone. |

It wasn't a good decision ultimately but that's on Town and Town alone. Was probably because he was a cheaper loan option than others in that second season. Around that time we took too many chances on replacing sold players with risky or injury prone “bargains” |

He didn't look to have any PL quality whatsoever. |
