Only the Saudis can save us now

Wouldn't exactly call him scraps, he got 16 G+A from LB and Dortmund wanted to keep him, but his contract ran out

If we say we want 50m, we'd get 30m

Already did with Santos and Paez

If we get Caicedo+Lavia that would be 5 19-20 year old CMs bought within a year

Kone has been poor this season sadly. He might well find form again, but would be a gamble

My guess would be we're going for Caicedo+Lavia now. What's your opinion on Lavia? Haven't watched him a lot and when i saw him play i wasn't that impressed.

I mean he agreed terms and wrote that goodbye post 6 months ago. Don't think that means much

This whole Ugarte business is a good sign to me. Shows actual pro's are in charge now, who know that massively overpaying will fuck you long term. I would've really like Ugarte here, but if we manage to get Caicedo that'll all be forgotten. That deal just became an absolute must though

He doesn't have a contract 😂

The headline says close to completion. But the article doesn't really read like actual reporting, more like a little sensationalist fluff piece exaggerating what is being said elsewhere

https://www.bild.de/sport/fussball/fussball-international/real-madrid-mega-deal-um-dfb-star-kurz-vor-abschluss-er-kommt-wohl-84177222.bild.html This is the article they are referring to

RLC to Milan, Kova to City, hopefully selling Conor, probably no new Kante contract, Zakaria going back to Juve - 2 new midfielders might not even be enough

he knows nothing in general, but especially not about this

Can't see us getting both, with Man U and Liverpool also in the market for a midfielder

I'm just referring to his injuries. I sure hope he'll play a big part, but counting on that would be a big gamble

If Kova leaves we'd certainly need 2 midfielders though. We cannot count Kante in any squad planning sadly

Plays like a seasoned pro at 16. This one really could turn out to be massive

Osimhen is obviously a good finisher, but in the games i watched he seemed rather clunky on the ball to me. Is that a wrong impression?

Look, i don't wanna talk this to death, i think i've made my point and i'm not trying to say Potter is doing a great job. But i'm seeing a clear delineation between tonight, where we created loads, and the last weeks, where we didn't create shit

completely agree on that part

We were anything but completely closed down, we dominated the second half. We don't have any other striker in the cl squad than Havertz, which of course was Potters decision, but doesnt change anything about his choices tonight. Cucu was brought on because Chilly wasn't ready for 90 minutes yet.

Look, i've been anything but a Potter fan these last weeks, but blaming him for tonight is just mindless hate

How on earth is tonight Potter's fault, our players can't finish to save their lives

translator being drunk lol
