CONFIRMED Tahith Chong signs from Luton Town

[Flatulent_Bob]

I remember him as a promising kid and then as the talent we’d let go to Luton and he seemed a solid signing for them.
Wasn’t he more of a defensive midfielder than winger though? I’ve not noticed him for years while he’s been at Luton so would welcome some insight from those that have been paying attention.

 

[Mouth of the South]

Might suit all parties. Luton will be keen to get him off their wage bill, he would undoubtedly prefer to play in the Champ and he could provide an option in a few posiions for Utd. A Hamza Choudhary type, just not as good

 

[Uganda Blade]

Plays bloody everywhere

He's had most goal involvements as a RW, but 39 of those 61 apps were for Man Utd's youth teams

Any chance of those stats with the youth appearances removed?

 

[ISZA ⚔️]

Understand this one is touch and go

I don't think you can filter it further, but here's the link. If you click on the position of interest it will only show those games. For example, his 1 appearance at Left Back was an 18 minute cameo in the Europa League, RD16, 2nd Leg against LASK in May 2020

[KMC-1889]

Player that in my head has always been in the ‘always plays well against us’ category but I’ve no idea if he’s actually good or not.

It’s the Jake Cooper Zone.

Touching cloth?

Any chance of those stats with the youth appearances removed?

174 Games, 14 Goals, 17 assists.

A goal involvement every 5 and a half games - not amazing stats but I've always thought he looked a very decent player anytime I've watched him in a match.

 

[Railway Blade]

Better on the right wing than Cannon so definitely strengthens the team. Not a high bar though, Colin Morris is probably still better on the right wing than Cannon.

I don't think suggesting that Cannon is our right winger is any sort of bar at all. If this Chong was to come in I would suspect that either Brooks or Ukaki would be offered out for a loan. Thats the way I see it anyway

 

[Champagneblade]

He’s been very much part of Luton’s rise.

Oh, no, wait. Shit

Blame Jay

 

[Bladesman]

 

[Rodley]

If we have social media doing the hand fetish / hand rub shots again when there’s potential to work in a Tiny Desk reference, then they need a stern word…

 

[Carlton Blade]

If this doesn't bring Barney back, nothing will

#Chong #bellcurve

 

[Frank the tank]

Be a great signing

 

[Booker4]

He's been called up just five days ago to Curacao zo presumably he's got again. He was highly rated at Birmingham I recall. I've not seen much of him saying that. Is he a similar player to Hannibal also ex man u and now at Burnley?

Only asking because of similar description to Hannibal from Danny Hall

 

[coolasanidiot]

Chong has always had good games against us. Athletic non stop tryer, this one is a definitely in the ‘I really hope so’ category.

 

[LiamBG]

Sounds like this is happening. Great for squad depth.

 

[SUFC Guy]

He's still injured isn't he? (Groin)

 

[Dave]

T-Blade said that we were in for a winger which would come out later in the week. It's now later in the week and a winger who we are interested in has broke in the media...is this the winger?

 

[Eppyblade]

I think a decent back up for a decent price. Not loved by Luton fans, a lot of running about with nothing to show from it is what I was told but there formation also doesn’t suit him

 

[fabfungus]

Be a great signing

Just need Cheech

 

[Roygbiv]

Plays mostly on the left. No idea if this means putting Barry out to the right?

 

[CaptainMorgans]

I'm hoping it's a permanent and he's here to provide squad depth.
It'll be pretty underwhelming if we see him as the answer to our first XI requirements.

 

[Thrice]

Can't stand him, to be perfectly honest. Seems like a very unlikeable individual by all accounts.

On the other hand, some shithousery can't hurt.

 

[Wards]

Tahith Jose Girigorio Djorkaef Chong

That is quite the full name

 

[Rodley]

Plays mostly on the left. No idea if this means putting Barry out to the right?

He’s not a right winger?!

Made of the same stuff as him at Burnley
