A top 6 L1 striker definitely.JamesSeed said:
A 100% fit & healthy Chuks is a championship player.Oh Eddie Youds... said:I’m amazed people don’t think Chuks will improve us. I get that his injuries are frustrating but he completely changes the way we play / attack when on the pitch.
Just need to hope we can get him on the pitch more often over the next 8 months.
Whether he's Championship level is debatable, based on his lack of impact when fit with us and Birmingham2 -
The title of this thread will always be applicable I feel…0

I’m gonna go for 8 league starts this season and 17 league appearances overall0

I remember watching Chuks playing up top for us against Swansea (I think?) when he dropped deep to receive the ball, turned and hit a chip pass over a defender's head and straight into the path of Leaburn's run. That's the kind of ability we need from our front man. His fitness issues are a shame but he can't come back soon enough, we lose so much when we just play Stockley.6

I've heard Sandgaard's desperate to get Chucks to earn his money and is strapping one of his special units to all the bits that hurt.

Slightly off topic but Aneke was in the same Arsenal U9s as former Kent cricketer Adam Ball and another kid called Harry Kane. While the first two had some sort of professional sporting career, I've actually lost track of the third lad and I suppose that things didn't quite work out for him. Shame because he definitely had something about him (one especially for @JohnBoyUK).

Dazzler21 said:Really excited for Chuks to get going again. I have concerns, but he always adds something when he plays... Even if it's 10 minutes per game.
Combining those two posts - what's the betting we end up getting 20 "games" out of him at 10 minutes per game?FishCostaFortune said:If we get 30-35 ‘games’ out of him then I’ll be more than happy. At the moment I’ll be surprised if we get more than 20, and that’s just not good enough.

Has he ever been 100% fit and healthy?JamesSeed said:

If he scores in all of those 10 minutes I'll be happyOff_it said:Dazzler21 said:Really excited for Chuks to get going again. I have concerns, but he always adds something when he plays... Even if it's 10 minutes per game.

I have a sense that when he does play he looks less mobile than he did. He is still powerful and at this level, that can be effective. Has anybody else noticed this?0

Always thought that he looked a bit of a lump but he actually moves better than his body looks if you see what I mean. Miles Leaburn, I think, is similar, much quicker than he looks.MuttleyCAFC said:I have a sense that when he does play he looks less mobile than he did.

Thought he looked laboured in pre season for sure. But that could just because of his general fitness record, lack of match sharpness, and the fact it’s less intense in pre season.MuttleyCAFC said:I have a sense that when he does play he looks less mobile than he did.

Garner mentioned that Egbo is back in full training, but not Chuks, so I wouldn't get too upset if don't see him in the team sheet this week.1

In the sense that he looked like he had the speed of a super tanker, but could actually achieve aircraft carrier speed with a fair wind, down hill!LenGlover said:

Probably not wanting to risk someone who is working back from a significant injury on wet pitch as their first game back.1

Or just let him get some more time on the training pitch first where players aren't diving in on challenges looking to injure him.Addick Addict said:

Don't think I'd risk him on a wet pitch. Team mates won't dive in on a wet pitch in training.
Don't try to be so awkward.5 -
