So hang on, let me get this straight. We are replacing an injury prone player (Lavia) with a player that has missed 11 games this season already? Clownlake ladies and gentlemen.

These are the kind of games where Rosenior can show he's better than Maresca. I.e. get a good result when you're expected to. Not because Palace is a weaker team., but because of the turmoil they're in Hopefully it won't be true to Chelsea form where we throw away a good opportunity

Save money having another D.Luiz..all we need to do take off shirt sponsor and he can have David's old kit..

Is there anything that Eghbali didn't downgrade? The medical team has been as disgrace since these cowboys took over.

He used to be cold, now he’s cooked

🔴Dario Essugo Essugo has been missing from the match-day squads against Brentford and Pafos and not seen in training sessions. (@kierangill_DM) Essugo seems to be the new Lavia. Luckily, he wasn't too expensive, but it's a shame he would have been really strong in midfield!

🟢Chelsea have a positive relationship with Nottingham Forest. (@NizaarKinsella) Sky linking Chelsea to Nmecha Sky Germany has named Chelsea as suitors for Felix Nmecha, who has previously been linked with Manchester United and Tottenham. Chelsea are monitoring the 25-year-old midfielder. 😡After D. Liuz, the next former City player. Joe Shields has lost his mind! 🔵💥Arsenal and Chelsea have held talks with intermediaries about a move for Atletico Madrid star Julian Alvarez, with the former Manchester City man’s future in the Spanish capital increasingly in doubt, as Barcelona face obstacles to signing him. (@GraemeBailey) 🚫🗯Jeremy Jacquet, complicated negotiation at this stage with Chelsea wanting to spend around £35m-£40m + add ons but Rennes are STILL insisting on club record sale price. Conversation still there, but getting difficult. Chelsea also have others on shortlist or could recall Aaron Anselmino or Mamadou Sarr, up to Chelsea. (@FabrizioRomano) 🌡It seems that JJ won't be coming anymore!!

Luiz Mrs just signed for Leicester.....

I guess if Lavia is cooked Luiz until the end of the season for depth isnt a bad thing.

The Douglas Luiz deal is apparently a matter of time, it's done according to some sources

Lavia is out for months

Just another absolute nothing loan and won't bring anything apart from being another number. Small cameo roles, the odd cup start and back away at the end of the season.

i see him as a cover, 4-5 option in the middle. if he plays a lot then it means our starters are injured so we are fucked anyways.

and why anyone would risk to buy palmer and spend a huge money if he has one year and half of great performances and in his last year he barely play? Maybe he is a one season wonder

The quote is from Ben Jacobs

Forgot about that, ffs. Couldn’t make it up. Also kind of forgot that after that whole huge saga with trying to get his big move to Juve a couple of years ago he went on to completely flop there. The more I think about this the more I hate it. With Essugo now back we have 4 fit midfielders plus Reece and Gusto who we have used in there frequently. So what’s the point of this?

Another ex City player….

Only explanation is that Lavia had his one millionth setback and won’t play again this season. Rosenoir just said a week or so ago that Lavia was back training individually which was positive but I’m guessing that he re-injured himself. Another body in CM makes sense I suppose or else we’ll run Caicedo into the ground. And there’s no chance guys like Wharton or Elliot Anderson can be bought this month.

so why we brought essugo?????

Desperate for a CB and we are taking someone on loan who plays CM Wow

Find it hard to believe Colwill is demanding a new contract while out with a serious long term injury. Surely that is not a thing.

I legitimately laughed out loud when I just checked Twitter and saw the tweet. Tbf, if we would’ve signed Douglas Luiz on loan before this season started I’d have said it’s a decent stopgap option. He was solid at Villa. But hasn’t he been completely irrelevant for Forest since joining? In a team that’s not exactly flying this season? What an odd move this would be now.

We are considering a move for Douglas Luiz as per Ornstein

Classy move last night by David Luiz
