Signed, retained, departing

[ETFC2001]

Anointed Chukwu has been announced. I think he’ll be great for us.

[55 seasons]

Good signing, I was surprised that we didn’t go for him at the end of last season. Well done to the management.

A good, swift move by the club.

Curious as to where he's been playing for the past 3 years post-Bromley?

I saw this - and I’m confused. Does this mean he can’t play for us anymore and is completely gone or will he still be available for weekends?

Explains why we got a new midfielder

So Jake Hutchinson has got a loan transfer to Hitchin for remainder of season....not surprised as wasn't getting any minutes and generally players want and need to play 

[Raingod]

Marcus joins Dagenham on loan from Gillingham to end of season ...

Its nice to see that QPR clearly trust us with their youngsters. Doesn't look as if Cian has had an opportunity to go out on loan anywhere else yet as he only arrived in West London from Shamrock Rovers in the middle of January. Will be interesting to see whether Gavin trusts him ahead of Chukwu or Kasimu or whether he'll be chucked on for the last 10 mins if we're in trouble? Either way, he may well get the chance to play in front of some decent crowds and in some important games.

He's got to get the nod ahead of Kasimu surely

You'd think so, but also bear in mind that he's an 18yo who (judging by the footage above) hasn't ever faced the kind of physical defenders he'll meet at Step 2!

Gavin will leave him on the bench until 87th minute, then wait for Kasimu or Chukwu to actually score before leaving them out the minute they find some form and then give the lad a start. He’ll have just enough time to have the obligatory 4 games without a goal before scoring his first goal for the club before being replaced by Chukwu for the last game of the season 🤣👍

You have to appreciate that its crucial to never let your strikers get too comfortable! God forbid they might start consistently finding the back of the net - and where would the fun be in that?!

If he knows where the back of the net is then he's got to be better than what we have....Chukwu does well holding the ball up and is a physical presence for balls over the top but his finishing is shocking though he could to be valuable at assists. Kasimu, not much use at much so easily replaceable!
