    Old shirt, not old pic.

    Players often keep old kit and training kit to wear around the house or to the gym.

    That's all the pic is.

    Would still love to have him back.

    Not talking about the training kit one Ben , the one he posted this morning.

    That's interesting. He'd walk this league.
  • Does seem strange that he'd post a pic of him in a Charlton kit as opposed to the kit of the side he's currently at.

    That's what I'm saying. Now were out the network (well hopefully soon) we can just sell him on or move him on end of. The beauty of not being in a network, get rid of the crap we don't need.
  • Don't get excited, Roland is just sending him over to help KM move and drive the hired can, will save paying a removal company.

    He's the new Finance Director.

    Looks like he is on his way back, looking at his Instagram. On his day he would piss this league.

    How did you come to that conclusion? He only posted an old pic of himself in a CAFC shirt. He's posted videos and pics in the past six months but it never meant he was returning.

    He and his missus appear happy and settled in Belgium, I'd be surprised to see them leave that and come back.
    This may not be their choice to make.

    This could be a purely financial decision by the new owners of STVV (or even part of their sale agreement with RD), as they may not be as amenable to subsiding high CAFC wages as RD was. So we get him back from January as part of that deal.

    Whatever the reason, I’d love to see him play for us again.

    It’s not cheap

    I think Robbo could get him playing again.

    And maybe he needs to playing for a good contract when this one ends?

    Except Igor did it for us in the Championship. Watt didn't. No comparison.

    If the takeover has some way to go yet, I can't see RD splashing the cash next month. Alternatively if it is almost a done deal it is perfectly plausible that the new owners want our on loan player back in house. Either way what's not to like? He scored 10 in 57 for us and has 10 in 28 for St Truiden. Dodoo has left the building, Best is injured and hasn't scored since goodness knows when and we are desperately short up front so I'd welcome a fit and up for it Igor back with open arms. Bring it on!

    you know he probably just likes the photo

    To be honest its a decent photo. Got the love heart spot on.
  • Duchatelet wants out and won’t be keen to spend. The team desperately needs a striker. Strikers that are decent cost money. Igor is our player and is decent.

    All the pieces of the jigsaw fit providing Igor is prepared to put in the effort and isn’t dragged back to The Valley kicking and screaming.

  • Watched him at STVV a few times the back end of last season, he looked sharp and scored a few. The proplem is his injury record, seems he can't stay fit for any length of time.

    Perfect fit then

    When he was her before he spent most of his time walking about in the pitch.....

    TBF he was forced to play through injury.

    A fit Vetokele is better than anything that we already have, he is is still our player, so let’s get him back and see what he can do.

  • We do love strikers that don't score.

    That's recent compared to Best who hasn't scored for two seasons!

    I would imagine it is cheaper to bring back Igor who is our player anyway, than purchase a player of similar quality - if indeed one is available to us. Having said that, looks like a kind message to Charlton fans more than anything.

    Perhaps Duchâtelet wants a fee for him ?
  • We ruined Igor with the mismanagement of his injury :-1:

    If we get the Igor that started that first season in the Championship he will rip defences in this division to pieces.

    There are a number of issues with him coming back here. Biggest one for me is the fact that I honestly feel he resents the club for wheeling hin out game after game while he was clearly injured. The club could have potentially ended hia career with that move. I’m not sure he will be 100% up for coming back.

    The other major issue is Robinson’s 4-2-3-1. He doesn’t fit that formation at all. If he comes back and we stick him up front on his own while we are creating next to nothing in matches, his head will go down pretty quickly and we all know the crowd will get on his back.

    I hope it happens and works out, but have a feeling it won’t.

    Both had decent but brief spells for us in the Championship, indeed in the same season 2014/15!

    Hopefully the club he comes back to won’t be the one that treated him so poorly though if you get my drift.

    Oh yeah, cos it’s cheap.

    Probably on a big wage though, he signed a 5 year deal in the Championship.

    Rather him scoring for us on a high wage, than scoring for someone else, still paying towards that high wage.
