Baba Rahman - The heir to Ash?

[MrsGaffer]

Heir to Ash ? Did this guy ever play for us? Might’ve done but 15/16 is a blur to me thankfully. I was pregnant most of the season but even that wasn’t as painful as some of the results we had 

 

[strider6004]

He did, 19 times in fact and II in the league:

Good for Baba, he’s had a rough go since that knee injury.

 

[GhostOfDembaBa]

Every time I see Alonso, I can't help thinking about alternative options and the only one the club has at the moment is Baba with da Silva being let go. 

No news on him at all with Afcon finishing a while back. 

He wasn't great when he played a few seasons ago but he showed a lot of promise when Chelsea bought him and he does have a bit of pace and quality on the ball.

I had forgotten what he looked like 

 

[ForeverCarefree]

Crazy to think we’ve spent £80m on Baba, Luis, Alonso and Emerson.

Crazy to think we’ve spent £80m on Baba, Luis, Alonso and Emerson. 

Especially when none of them have done anything that Ryan Bertrand couldn't have done with a similar opportunity ....

WTF point to offer him a new contract, then immediately loan him out? He's never going to make the first team, the club is still banking him he comes good and somebody pays a 30M transfer fee, and we get our investment back.

Same for Lucas Piazon. A new contract plus a loan

So if he does well on loan we can get a fee for him.

Keep the players under contract so they don’t leave on free

 

[Munkunku]

Come back Baba, all is forgiven. 

 

[Slojo]

Come back Baba, all is forgiven. 

You joker. 

You certainly help with morale I'll give you that!

If we don’t laugh, we’ll cry.

Come back Baba, all is forgiven. 

Worth a go, where is he?

 

[Munkunku]

Worth a go, where is he?

I think he’s my kitchen porter at work, I’ll ask if he fancies giving it another go.

The great summer clear out of 2023 continues. Take cake Baba and good luck in Greece. 

 

[DidierDrogbalala]

I wonder if he's gonna post a goodbye letter to his Chelsea fans

Oh and mods, can you change the title of this thread please. Would rather nobody else sees it
