No im not saying about that, im saying could Youga be the new Gibbs as in we may never see him in a Charlton shirt again. Not on about number of appearances Youga has had.
Lol, maybe he is and i know Gibbs has been playing for New England Revolution in the MLS read it on her before. I was just saying it might come down to Youga never playing for us again as it has been so long.
I remember Parky commenting to the effect that Youga was seen as ready to play by our medics but that his French medic had a different opinion and Youga went with his opinion. Didn't sound like someone who was keen to play for us and he was back in France ages ago.
I think it's about time we had some feedback from the club what's happening with him, whether he's due to come back from injury or whether he's looking for a new club (although still under contract).
We need to be careful with Youga - everyone sees him as the second coming of Roberto Carlos.
He had a good start to the season as a flying wingback but has been injured for a very long time indeed so will take a long time to get back to fitness.
We must also remember that there was a horrendous player in Youga just the season previous so it could easily rear its ugly head again - that's if we ever see him again

"There was also some positive news on Kelly Youga after last season’s injury nightmare.
Kinsella said: “Kelly Youga is not fit yet and is still coming back from injury. He is training on his own with the physio so hopefully in the near future we will see Kelly back. I hope he will be back for the start of the season.
“He hasn’t been in with the lads but has been doing his own individual stuff at the moment but hopefully within the next few days or maybe a week or two he will be back.
“Kelly has been making steady progress but we will just have to wait and see.”
Don`t like the sound of Kins saying we`ll have to wait and see. Sounds like maybe they are hopeful but not building him into their plans. Would like to see Kelly back and playing. Liked his swashbuckling style last season until his injury.
Agree Henry but would he command a fee having not played for such a long time and with a possible question mark over his ever getting back to full fitness. /

KY could be a big player for us but Id guess hes on big wages and could attract a big fee.
Why the hesitation ? Don't know the reasons why of course but I'm bloody pissed off with the seeming inability to make an offer to one of our best youngsters. He has an excellant left peg and can put in a decent cross, takes a good free-kick and despite what some will have you believe isn't slow. He can play left back, centre half and, if anyone on the coaching staff actually had the ability to spot it, would make an excellant central midfielder. He reminds me of Barry in that respect. The contract they gave McCormack should have been given to Grant if they are in short supply. Will be our own bloody fault if he pees off to somewhere like Brighton and we get diddly-squat in compensation. FFS give him a bloody contract.

Tend to agree we should deffo offer GB a contract.
Apparently they seem to think the injury is in his head now, has been fit for ages keeps then claiming he has felt something & cannot train. Don't expect to see him in the Charlton First team for a while again if ever.

I suppose he probably is worried that he will be out even longer we really need to get him to a sports psychiatrist if this is the case.

Cory Gibbs has been playing quite well for the New England Revolution in MLS.
Maybe Youga is out there with him ....?
So is anthrax ;0)
Youga is Younga than Jackson. FACT!
Official confirmation, sort of. The editor of Your Views on the OS

Did he not have the clubs approval to swan off then?
Quick acceleration and tough tackling are attributes that tend to decrease after a long lay-off with injury and are difficult to get back.
I hear he was told different things by different doctors (ours and a french one)
He opted to follow the guidance of the French one as it suited him better but I believe he now is under the guidance of the english fella
