yes Raphinha and Dembele were the two huge winger misses, Barca fucked us (as did the players themselves) on both plus these other misses that gutted me (Barca again on some) Aurélien Tchouameni (the worst of all for me, as we could have had him last season for £40-45m or so in summer 2021 and not have needed to dump out £100-120m for Rice next year) Marquinhos (pretty much a pipe dream anyway, but we did try) Milan Skriniar (likely miss) Matthijs de Ligt Gavi (was always very unlikely, but damn, what a player, he would have been a game changer for ages) Gabriel Jesus (he is already making us pay) Robert Lewandowski (was always a long shot, but would have instantly sorted us at CF for the next 3 or so seasons) Yves Bissouma (I dread him at Spuds under Conte, he is that rare swing player, DMF and CMF with creativity, a poor man's Barella and Bellingham) Nico Schlotterbeck (so fucking stupid, we would be sorted at LCB now and he went to Dortmund for only £18m!) Hugo Ekitiké (criminal we did not make a move after all but Osimhen (and arguably Danjuma) fell off the main CF board)

Sarr at one time was considered the next shiny new French CB thing (was rated by Nice at €30+m at one point), as he started playing a lot of topflight ball so young,17yo and starting for Nice) but when he was tossed out there also being able to play LB I finally watched a lot of games whist he was at Nice and he was SHIT there so I quickly cooled off him he was so lacking in technical skills (as we all now oh-so-painfully are aware of)

acceptable (and doable now, not 2023, like many) targets left on the board for every position GK Gabriel Slonina (just finish the deal, this is crazy how long it is taking) CB (assuming we miss on Kounde, who is a RCB) Milan Skriniar Presnel Kimpembe lefty (highly doubtful he will come) Evan Ndicka lefty Merih Demiral Gonçalo Inácio lefty Abdou Diallo lefty (can play LB too) Adam Webster David Carmo lefty Attila Szalai lefty LB Maxwel Cornet (can play winger too) Borna Sosa David Raum Robin Gosens Filip Kostic RB Benjamin Pavard Matty Cash Denzel Dumfries Ridle Baku ' DMF (pretty much wait for Rice, but there are two bargain buys for now, see below in bold) Rúben Neves Wilfred Ndidi Sandro Tonali Marcelo Brozovic Ismaël Bennacer Teun Koopmeiners Guido Rodríguez Danilo Julian Weigl CMF Nicolò Barella (can play Kante role DMF as well) Frenkie de Jong Carlos Soler Youri Tielemans Mikel Merino Matheus Nunes Jacob Ramsey Houssem Aouar youth Luka Sucic Enzo Fernández Carlos Alcaraz AMF Bernardo Silva Sergej Milinković-Savić Dominik Szoboszlai Charles De Ketelaere WINGER Jarrod Bowen Mikel Oyarzabal Rafael Leão Moussa Diaby Pedro Neto CF Victor Osimhen Arnaut Danjuma (winger too)

if you count him as a CF, the only 2 left are (my always first choice but costly and posion dwarf captured) Osimhen and then Danjuma plus Danjuma can play winger so it seems to be the way to go atm

from the same site, showing the portion Porto paid https://www.capology.com/club/porto/salaries/2020-2021/

Matt Law, for one, confirmed it as has been posted multiple times he is Mr inside Chels, and has never never a bomb-tosser, in fact he has been the opposite

that site is taking the portion of his salary that Porto paid and projecting it as his Chels salary here is more confirmation of the £120K PW figure https://www.capology.com/player/malang-sarr-36183/profile/

the only 2 CB's we now have who I have true faith in are Silva and KK pressure will be insane on Colwill to come good as it stands Trevoh has been pretty damn poor for months, I am losing confidence plus we have fuckall for backup fullbacks other than one more season of trot outs for the rapidly ageing-out Azpi and Alonso (and both were supposed to be sold) if Colwill is not up to it and we add no more CB's and no more fullbacks, I truly fear for this coming season it will be shambolic if we start the season with Sarr not only on the 25 man roster but also if he sees minutes he is HORRIFIC, so poor he would struggle to make a team like Brentford or Everton same for Bats

yes, and I edited my post to add that all 10 are now off the table except for Osimhen (and also the non listed Danjuma)

he was deffo on list of acceptable CF's I did several pretty large posts about his scoring stats my list back 6 months ago or so of 10 CF's actually good enough to buy and who were (even if only technically) still available so no Dusan Vlahovic and no Arnaut Danjuma who I was not considering a CF (now have changed my mind a bit on him there) multiple ones were pipe dreams but this was strictly from a talent level all are now off the table except for Osimhen and Danjuma (and he was not on that list)

me too

FUCK

he has been shit for months, many months losing confidence in him

delusional

what did the cunt do? IF he keeps playing that twat, then Tuchel is going to be sacked by season's end

wow, just woke up wtf happened? we are in deep shit was it really as bad as the 4 nil thrashing sounds?

agree with all but Havertz the other 3 are pussyklaat

I was always against the dwarf coming versus many other CB's I always listed I led the charge what I do not like is being bollocksed about in public by Sevilla, Barca and the 2 players (much more so Kounde than Raphinha)

sod off berk

this wankpuffin sounds like a right proper tosser if truth be told

I am serious on this if a Barca affiliated journo is wilfully lying to manipulate prices, that is illegal AF
