    I'm basing that number on the fact Gilbey has 11 for them so Chuks should double that easily

    Lost some pace, but good assist tonight. And cracking shot from nothing near the end.

    Has no pace anymore but still a man mountain and causes problems as an out ball, what a screamer that would have been was a world class save tbf.

    Not only that but he started the build up for the winner with a rugby-style punt into the corner. We won possession back from their throw in and Tupac ❤️ got on the end of the move

    He looked very uncertain with his gait whenever he had to accelerate, like he didn't want the Bluetak and clothes pegs holding his legs together to come off

    It looked to me he may have injured himself taking that shot. 

    Hope not

    He was already running gingerly before that.

    Pretty sure i caught a shot of him wincing after going on an earlier run

    Can't tell if he was just completely gassed or injured. Had his hands on his knees for ages though

    He'll be like a new signing next season 
    He'll start 15 games next season for his new club.
    Maybe if he drops far enough down the pyramid
    You could see on Saturday that he's lost none of his vision or touch
    He might have scored or assisted twice at least but for making the wrong choice: his left foot curler that shaved the far post should have been a pass to Dixon for a tap in - Chuks knew he'd got it wrong which was why he was beating the ground in frustration
    Next chance he played in Dixon, who went down far too softly, Chuks might well have shot.
    I'm not blaming Chuks for either choice, they weren't howlers just a bit of bad luck.
    Being limited to max 20 minutes isn't viable in League 1 and can't be countenanced if we get promoted

    I fully expect he'll have offers for next season and good luck with whatever he does next - so long as it doesn't bring him up against us any time soon.
    I will be very interested where he ends up.

    Two good cameos this week. Just what we need.

    Doesn't always come off for him, he's not what he once was, but he still gives as different option off the bench. I hope he stays fit and available for the rest of this season and into the playoffs (if we need them). He won't make a difference every week, but I'm pretty confident he is going to have at least one or two more positive impacts on our season.

    Give him a new 5 year deal

    in all seriousness, he did a job when he came on tonight 

    He’s all we’ve got as back up at the moment so I hope he can find a bit of spark between now and the end of the season

    Unlucky again today... Forced the Goalkeeper into one of a few fantastic stops that he made!!

    Shame he didnt get the protection that Collins got for Lincoln, but we're used to that now

    Still a threat when the ball lands to him right but can't jump or run

    Set up the equaliser. He looks a bit fitter than a couple of weeks ago so perhaps not finished. Still causes mayhem.

    He looks like he's playing within himself to avoid muscle injuries. I'm not sure I've ever seen a player not jumping though.

    2 assists in 2 games but he doesn't do enough for me. So immobile

    I’ve just said to my son I can see Chuks curling one in from 20 yards out to win the play off final.

    cant run
    cant jump
    cant seem to trap a ball and get it under control

    Puts in a lot of effort, and it just isnt landing for him - but he is just so uncomfortable to watch.

    Not sure I agree with number three. I'd gamble on a reduced deal and hope that a decent pre-season gives him confidence in his body. He will be looking at a substantial pay cut whatever he does. Last two games as late sub, two assists and a super save from a decent keeper.

    This is a mental illness at this point.

    Gladly. I think anyone still who still thinks that Chuks could turn his fitness issues around with a preseason is insane.

    How many years have people been saying it? Clinging on to some misplaced hope that this might finally be the year he can last more than 20 mins and not need to miss a third of the season, despite being shown he can't do it time and time again. It's madness.

    I think you belittle mental illnesses.  Which are not a difference in opinion on a player.
