    2.5 years left on his contract, he's probably on the books until summer 2025. Good luck to the club shifting that onto someone else.

    He’s not even as great as many make out when he’s fit.  We’ve got a real problem now because I can’t imagine TS wanting to pay up his contract, and he’s contracted for another 2 and a half years.  He can literally only play 20 minutes.  Utter madness

    I’m not too sure how far away Chuks can actually be from calling professional football a day and picking up the insurance money. Odds on we won’t see him again this season and then what ? Another cotton wool pre season and around it goes.

    He's done okay out of Charlton.
    I don’t think the two are mutually exclusive. As a club it doesn’t look like we have got value for money out of him, and for the player it is quite sad that injury looks like he won’t achieve anywhere near the potential of his talent.

    What is his talent exactly? Playing 20 minutes of football every 3 months then lying in bed with a sore back for months.  Waste of space, get shot

    Bargain, the odd goal for a forward taking up a squad position, expensive cameos.

    Feel sorry for the bloke, it must be grim in his situation. But it's grim for us as a cash strapped club too, though our own fault for committing so many resources to signing him and paying him, and it's not as if we didn't know.
    He doesn't return FROM injury, he returns TO it.

    For free I disagree. It was paying a fee that was ludicrous

    The point I was making in my original post that you quoted is that while it is sad for us as fans that we have not got value from the player it is Alexis sad for him that his career has gone down this path. Or do you think he is deliberately getting injured just to piss us off?

    Well at least we haven’t had this debate before…

    But there’s much more evidence to inform people’s decisions now.

    Will be interesting to hear those who were ‘pro Aneke’ (I use that term for lack of a better one) have changed their minds now?

    We paid for him and offered a 3 and a half year deal. 

    Basically says it all about the management from this club the past few years.

    No, but it's gone beyond a joke now, he comes for 1 minute and falls over injured, 60+ players are more match fit than him. Glassback, are we a charity case case financing the worse forward line in the league? It seems like it

    Why on earth did we sign a player we knew was so injury prone and unfit?

    He’s clearly very talented for this level, his goals to minutes ratio shows that. His fitness is the issue, and I’m not sure that’s something that will ever change.

    He looked devastated going off tonight - I’m sure he wishes it wasn’t this way even more than we do, he’s just another player for us, this is his life to him.

    Considering Stockley has one goal in open play all season and is very much the proverbial donkey, I wouldn’t hesitate in playing Leaburn up top now once he gets match fit.  It would be a big ask of him, but Aneke and Stockley are absolutely useless for different reasons

    Don’t think we will see Chucks again. 
  • I don't believe bad luck comes into it on this occasion - Considering how injury prone he is (and he knows it) it was absolutely criminal, negligent and borderline gross misconduct for him to to not adequately warm up to come on tonight. I think it highlights his general attitude to fitness and staying injury free is not up to professional standards.
    Did he actually warm up before he came on tonight? Mate said he clearly hadnt. I didn't notice.

    Problem is and it is just the reality, each additional injury he gets, he will be coming back a lesser player. We are starting to see that decline. Both physically, emotionally and mentally

    I don’t disagree with that, but I do have some sympathy with the player. To me the club fucked up signing him back less than six months after he left. They should have known the issues.
