His being silly to be fair he was only 17. 2 weeks ago I have a feeling the agent is pushing for a move because they make more off the commission. There are legit reasons to leave Chelsea but it seems more of a case of agent trying to benefit more than the player pushing this.

We need to hold on to him, heck force him into leaving on a free. We cant let our best players force our hand, on the other hand though Sarri fucked up by not at the very least starting him at least 3 Europa games plus league cup

Metro are a terrible source, although if im the board I would let him go on a free. Play him the next year Im 100% sure bayern will drop interest and he will sign a new contract. Its a bad precedent letting our best players force moves. I low key blame Marina for this. We never used to have contract issues under Gourlay.

Yeah I think we will be banned for just one window, most likely next winter which is okay as long as we sort our transfers now and in the summer. Its a shame that our academy is probably at its worst shape compared to prior years so they could have helped too during the ban.

Real Madrid, Barcelona and Atletico Madrid were banned for similar offences 2 years ago

Watched his compilation and it was nothing special but at this point I will take any player that gives us a different dimension.

If Sarri rotates well he can easily start half of our remaining games, we have Europa and FA Cup too. Look at RLC and Barkley earlier in the season they were unhappy about their lack of playing time but once we started playing twice and fixtures pled up they started to get enough starts and appearances to keep them content. His quick passing is world class and we could do with that in our squad if we lose Cesc. Plus he is only 24 so he is still young.

If we had paid what Roma wanted early in the summer, he would have joined us imo. We have a Brazilian contingent in our squad so its not like we would have been undesirable. He just wanted to move to a bigger club and would have jumped at the chance of moving to us. Also I heard with the Kepa deal Roman intervened after being embarrassed about the whole situation and wanted to show we could still spend so he sanctioned the deal. Marina and the scouts were apparently looking at Butland as the replacement. (Its all hearsay so we will never know if its true) but one thing I'm certain is Marina is bad at negotiating transfer ins for us, if she had just messed up Alisson I would be okay but it has happened before with Lukaku, to a certain extent with Koulibaly and Alex Sandro.

I just dont trust Marina to get deals over the line, she might end up pulling the deal at the last minute over 2 million. Happened with Alisson and Liverpool came in and turned the player's head, it worked out well in the end but its still cause for concern. (Lukaku deal too)

I think this guy would be a massive impact sub for us. We need to actually get this done.

The rumours just died down, what happened? We even brought Fabregas back.

Death, taxes and Alonso starting this game.

The reason I hate and criticize Willian more than any other player because of his rotten attitude, he feels entitled, has all the talent in the world but seems to not have a brain and finally the talent we have given up since we signed him in order for us to accommodate him. Alonso is a terrible footballer but its not his fault, the geezer actually gives it his all most of the time, however he cant do anything about his lack of speed same as Azpi. Willian on the other hand has all the tools in the world but he is just lazy and arrogant, at 31 years of age he still has the football brain of a 18 year old and it really frustrates me. I hope we move on from him sooner rather than later, he might go on to tear up the league at his new team but that is okay. I feel like a break up would be good for both sides at this point in time.

I still think we need cover for him, he has played way too much football in the last year. I feel like fatigue was a factor with some of his performances earlier in the season. Now he looks like his slowly getting back to full fitness and its been showing the last month or so

An appreciation post on this absolute baller (its probably been looked over because we have been terrible of late), his quietly been our 2nd best player and his more or less adapted to the role of late. One of the true world class players we have in that squad.

Personally I would break the bank for Cavani even at his age, his movement is world class and he can still produce the goods even with limited chances.

The good thing is Sarri was so pissed off at Barkley just before he took him off. So Im fairly confident he wont be starting a game any time soon.

I think it will help decongest the middle. Its so easy to defend us at the moment because everyone cuts back into the middle so just crowding the middle usually stops us in our tracks. This is why CHO has been a breath of fresh air, he hugs the touch line. If our fullbacks made overlapping runs it would help pull some of their defenders out of position instead of just staying in the middle to park the bus. Look at how City do it.

Lets be honest Sarri will never drop Azpi and Alonso but they are the main problem at the moment. I would rather win or lose 3-2 than this shit we are being served at the moment.

You know what the funny thing is, Alonso is the first name on the team sheet against Newcastle this weekend.

You forgot Dele Alli

This scatter gun approach to our transfer business is the reason we need a DoF. There is no long term planning at all. Sarri is getting rid of all the homegrown players and replacing them with foreign players which only creates a potential problem. This is how we ended up with 40 million Drinkwater after fucking off Chalobah

Bayern and CHO's agent are also trying to force Chelsea's hand a bit thus the constant leaks.

This is the right move to make but Chelsea wont make it. It solves the home grown problem and upgrades our squad at the same time for years to come. Also is anyone not concerned we are not being linked to any full backs or wingers considering thats our biggest weakness at the moment?

if they were constantly wide, we would not be congesting the middle of the pitch. Look at how Liverpool and Man City's full backs play thats width. What Alonso and Azpi offer I dont know what to call it but its definitely not width.
