    I think he's either staying or going....

    I’m sure that the medical team will have had a lot of input into the Clubs thoughts and position on Chuks fitness issues. Unless they feel there is a genuine chance that Chuks can become fit enough to fully be part of the squad and play 90 minutes just like everyone else I can’t see how the club can look to re sign him. Certainly not more than a one year deal. Very good player but not at his current levels of fitness.

    The problem with the hourglass he has used is that it is showing a lot more time to come than has elapsed. It may have been a lazy choice on his part of course.

    Next pic is of him at Bluewater, but outside Urban Outfitters, so it's likely he only got a 1 week extension.
    looks like he's playing charades and is about to do the 2nd word...

    How anyone can have the slightest clue as to what’s going to happen based on that hourglass I have no idea.

    That is the point. It has been put there for a reason and people are speculating what it means because ultimately, they don't know. If we are not going to speculate on a football forum, we might as well give up.

    I would say I've got better things to do than analyse a cryptic Insta story, but I haven't. This has been the highlight of my attention span during a 2 hour meeting from home.

    I think with the hourglass, Chuks was just commentating on the temporal nature of existence.

    I'd love him to stay. Well above the level. Now we have a top medical department, more minutes on the pitch equals more goals. maybe an enticement would be to sign him for three years with the associated security it brings him.
    I think he’s at his level to be honest. Until he plays a run of 90mins and can produce as a starter. I don’t see how he is seen as too good for league one.
  • Hourglass begins with H. The 10 on his shirt looks more like the word ‘TO’. ITRM stands for Ipswich Town right midfield. I think Aneke is H in Line of Duty and is off to Ipswich to play in midfield. Personally, I think Ipswich have made a mistake.

    Oh I agree. He’ll definitely stay if he doesn’t go.

    He doesn't know if he is coming or going .
  • Has he been commissioned by the Egg Marketing Board? E for B and Chuks Aneke has a catchy ring to it. (Ignore if you’re under 60)
  • Just reading up about American football and found the perfect fit for Chuks

    Kickers
    Kickers are a group apart. They don’t engage in any of the activities that are seen as truly core to football. They don’t hit or get hit, they don’t throw, they don’t catch, they don’t block. They don’t usually look like football players. They’re not bulked-up behemoths, they don’t wear scary looking shields on their face-masks. More frequently than other positions, they don’t share a common background with other football players. They didn’t grow up playing Pee Wee Football, being the best athlete in their schools. They grew up playing soccer or rugby and then switched over later in life. Sometimes they didn’t even grow up in the United States.

    There was a computer game many moons ago called Chucky Egg.

    I think it means he is taking a shower and trying to do it in 4 minutes.  I have one in a shower room at home for just that.
    You time yourself in the shower!

    Who needs Football when we can debate over the meaning of an Instagram post :D
    You’ll have to start writing weekly previews of players social media posts 😉

    Club might as well play hardball with Chuks. His “confidential” issues will be well enough known within football circles and I can’t see any “bigger” clubs than us being too keen to take him on anything other than a pay per play arrangement. We either think we can fix him in which case make him a decent offer, or we see value in keeping him as he is in which case we can offer him a commensurate deal or wait till he come back cap in hand in a couple of months when he can’t get a better deal elsewhere. Either way, I wouldn’t be wasting much energy flattering his (or his agent’s ego).  Take it or leave it young man.

    Just out Of interest, who is Chuks agent, if it’s the same as Lb and Lyle, then he’s off.

    I think Chuks is going to be our version of Solskjaer (the playing version). He'll accept he will be the best sub in the division and because of his 'issue' will hang around with us. For what it's worth, I don't believe it's a 'mental' issue either.
