CHO

i really dont see the big deal with him. He constantly makes bad decisions with his flicks and trick seldom do they work. He scores relatively few goals we have better crossers of the ball in Ziyech and James and Mount. His tackling isnt stable cant head a ball, lets face what does he do that get so much attention. In the good old days we had players that were always maligned but were in fact way better options than some of them we have now. Salomon Kalou was always singled out but he scored so many important goals for us. Mikkel was no messi but very few could take the ball off him alone.

Felt like an odd one when bayern were in for him and the debates were about whether to increase his wages to fend them off.

Understandable to a point, but definitely hasn't done enough to deserve those wages. Might as well have let Bayern have him and sign someone else.

In regards to CHO I could write an essay on him and how fans view him. But cba rn. In short I think Chelsea fans and myself included are guilty of hyping him up and putting way too much expectation on him in the past. There’s still quite a lot who continue to this day. If you view him as the next Mbappe, Sancho or Haaland, a once in a generation mercurial talent, of course you end up disappointed.

But actually, take all that away, for a 20 year old winger who had a bad injury last season he’s doing absolutely fine. He’s showing he’s useful to have in the squad right now and has developed to cover RWB and forward positions. His future potential anywhere between good PL player to even a starter for a team challenging for the title.

While I agree with that he's starting to look like one of those great until the end product players which are frustrating as hell.

He's a player you can just imagine Wenger 10 years ago looking at & going "yes, I'm going to make this guy a star, and I don't care how painful the process will be for the fans"

Remember seeing him come on back when the hype was at max levels and he had an aura about him like he was the best player on the pitch and he knew it. Think he got injured soon after and that derailed things but there's a superstar in him if he shows the right attitude. Still only 20 years old.

When it comes to talent, intelligence and end product...Callum Hudson-Odoi simply has no equivalent at the club.
Of course the high-quality underlying (advanced) metrics show and confirm what I've already known and see...Phenomenal Super!

Highlights his extraordinary ability & footballing IQ excellence...which is off the charts.
Advanced beyond his years.

Fundamentally our smartest operator and most complete multidimensional final-third attacker either side of the pitch or in the middle between the lines...whether that be in retaining possession, dribbles, driving with the ball into the box/byline, playmaking, switching play, taking opposition defenders/markers out of the game by drawing them in or due to the threat he poses they naturally double/triple mark him + creates angles (does that one extraordinarily well, like no other).


The explosive injection of pace, directness, moving more freely (rediscovering the gears), willingness to use unfavored foot and varying degrees of excellence to his shots returning.
Outstanding variation, decision-making, speed of play and strength to his (progressive) play.

Give him more responsibility and he'll thrive. There is no limit to his game, he can do everything.
Elite skillset, generational talent going to the top where he belongs.
