The problem is who is a clear upgrade on Santos at CMF/DMF and also is both available and not too old for BlueCo to buy? Here are the players I rate as clear upgrades and some on the borderline strike-throughs either are not available or are too old for BlueCo to buy italics are questionable as to IF they are actually for sale bold are my only real targets and all will be crazy expensive, even likely Ayyoub Bouaddi Pedri Federico Valverde Declan Rice João Neves Vitinha Ryan Gravenberch Alexis Mac Allister Sandro Tonali Bruno Guimarães Adam Wharton Elliot Anderson Nicolò Barella Martín Zubimendi Warren Zaïre-Emery Aleksandar Pavlovic Aurélien Tchouaméni Carlos Baleba (not 100 per cent sold on him, he has regressed a bit this season) Rodri Tijjani Reijnders Eduardo Camavinga (but is so often injured) Frenkie de Jong Ayyoub Bouaddi Senny Mayulu (maybe, I am not sure I would do a straight swap)

every Brasilian CF and Winger and AMF on the planet valued over £19m in order of valauation (there are only 22 of them atm, which is pretty crazy): Vinicius Junior Estêvão Raphinha João Pedro (will soon pass Raphinha in valuation) Matheus Cunha (great buy for Manure, grrrr) Rodrygo (badly injured) Igor Thiago (just scored his 20th goal of the season for Brentford) Gabriel Martinelli Rayan (Bournemouth CF/Winger, a baby bull, my main want on this list, over Roque and Endrick) Savinho Vitor Roque Lucas Paquetá (the only AMF) Igor Paixão (Olympique Marseille LWer) Evanilson Kevin (Fulham LW) Rômulo (RB Leipzig CF) Antony (Betis, ex Manure, RWer) Richarlison David Neres Endrick Rodrigo Muniz Luiz Henrique (Zenit St. Petersburg RWer)

these are the only CMFs valued over €40m on T-Markt only 14 on the planet (plus Enzo, who we already have)are valued higher than Santos (and it should be only 10 or 11 or so, max, IMHO) in order of valuation: strike-throughs are not availabe bold I rate (even if not available) Pedri Federico Valverde Declan Rice João Neves Enzo Fernández Alexis Mac Allister (but is over-valued on T-Markt this high, plus Real wants him) Bruno Guimarães (IF NUFC were to sell him though, we are talking £80m or more I wager, he IS a superb player but he turns 29yo this fall, so no way BlueCo goes for him, so hope no top EPL club moves for him, OR for Tonali, who I rate over Bruno TBH. IF I ran our club, BOTH are real target, and have been for me for ages) Elliot Anderson (will cost close to £85-90m or so, maybe even more if an EPL bidding war starts) Pablo Barrios (over-valued at this high on the T-Markt charts, I have cooled on him a wee over the past year plus) Nicolò Barella (he turns 30yo next season, so no way BlueCo moves for him, he would be great at Manure, so hope they do not move for him) Tijjani Reijnders Warren Zaïre-Emery Eduardo Camavinga (interesting player, BUT Real will likely demand mad money, and he has become injury-prone, repeated hamstring, ankle, and knee injuries the past 2 seasons) Manu Koné (pass at the price Roma will demand, Santos better anyway IMHO) Kobbie Mainoo (pass, I fail to see how he is an upgrade from Santos to be blunt) Andrey Santos Felix Nmecha (pass at the price Dortmund will demand) Frenkie de Jong (and turns 30yo late next season, he has Serie A written all over him eventually, where he will dominate well into his 30s) Scott McTominay (IF Napoli were to sell him, the poison dwarf will want mad money, especially mad for a player who turns 30yo this late fall)

thank you Pizy 💪🏽

Vitor Roque scores as Palmeiras beats Novorizontino again to clinch the 2026 Paulistão Championship Chelsea have Brazilian international forward on radar for the summer A name that has been hovering around for a while... https://siphillipstalkschelsea.substack.com/p/sources-Chelsea-have-brazilian-international Chelsea are looking to do some more new transfers in the summer transfer window at the end of this season. There are a number of positions that the club are looking at to improve on, and one of them is in attack. We’ve had some info over the weekend on a name who is certainly on Chelsea’s radar for the summer. SPTC Sources have heard that the club are very much looking into a deal to sign Palmeiras forward Vitor Rogue. The Blues have been looking at the 21-year-old, who turns 22 at the end of this month, for quite some time now, and our sources are hearing rumblings of his name being mentioned internally at the club again last week. Roque can play as a striker, an attacking midfielder, or a left winger, and he has bagged 68 goals in 215 senior appearances so far in his career that includes spells at Barcelona and Betis. He’s also already earned 2 caps for the Brazilian national team. He’s one name to watch as Chelsea consider their options in the attacking positions on the pitch going into the summer transfer window. We’ll see if anything sparks up, but he’s definitely a Chelsea target.

BlueCo and their twat board can go FUCK themselves with a chainsaw

Absolute rubbish from Fichajes: The say Boehly himself is going to drop 250m euros this summer on: RB (he no longer even slightly rotates at CB, and he is only 1.79m/1.80m tall anyway, perfectly fine for a fullback, but far too short for an EPL CB) Jules Kounde, who turns 28yo this fall LW/AMF Dani Olmo, who turns 29yo towards the end of next seasoon LW/RW Raphinha (left-footed, plays more at LW though, due to Yamal playing RW), who turns 30yo late this fall Laughable claim.

fuck Ben Roberts

and sack that nob Ben Roberts he was brought here by POTTER ffs

Premier League clubs alerted as Werder Bremen plot record Karim Coulibaly sale https://www.tribalfootball.com/article/soccer-premier-league-premier-league-clubs-alerted-as-werder-bremen-plot-record-karim-coulibaly-sale-f01ecb6e-1f28-4089-b1bd-6bbe020efe2d Werder Bremen are reportedly planning to sell young defender Karim Coulibaly for a club record fee in the summer with Premier League clubs keen. The 18-year-old has emerged as one of the best young defensive talents in German this season, starting 20 of his 21 Bundesliga games. According to BILD, Bremen are hoping to take advantage and cash-in on Coulibaly in a deal that could completely change the club’s financial outlook. Bremen will demand a fee of around £42 million, which would be their record sale, eclipsing Diego’s move to Juventus in 2009. It’s understood that several Premier League, Ligue 1, and Serie A sides are interested in signing the youngster.

Romano is such a wanker pushing this Fichajes shite: IF they are being sold we should be ALL OVER BOTH those are CL and EPL-winning level players IMHO same for Osimhen or Lautaro at CF Bastoni at CB (the best CB on the planet for me) Diogo Costa at GKer (by far the best GKer remotely available atm, with Gregor Kobel the only other one you might make a case for, although Costa is far better with his feet and Kobel is a crazy hard pull, turns 30yo next year, in late 2027, and probably Bayern is the team he might leave for, or Barca or eventually Real) CMF/DMFs Federico Valverde João Neves Vitinha Sandro Tonali and also at winger besides KK (all these are rumoured to be up for sale for the right amount of money) Kenan Yıldız Bradley Barcola Morgan Rogers Yan Diomande (potentially) IF they are actually sold (doubtful), you of course can add Vini Jr and Olise in there too

agree I think he will turn out to be a great buy the only LBs at I would take over him are Nuno Mendes Marc Cucurella Alphonso Davies Riccardo Calafiori Nico O'Reilly Nathaniel Brown maybe Álvaro Carreras and Alejandro Balde but those two are Real Madrid/Barca hype products, especially Balde who is seemingly always injured Antonee Robinson is great LB, but is now too old (he turns 29yo this summer), so he ends up at number 10 in my top 10 Lewis-Skelly of Arse has regressed a lot this year (I would not be adverse to buying him at a reduced price though, as the only LBs clearly better (to buy) than Hato are all NOT avavailable, except for Nat Brown, and he is going to cost pretty crazy money (will likely cost £60 to £70m). I so dread Manure potentially getting Brown, he is deffo piece to their puzzle. Same for Pool. Citeh and Barca also want him, but Barca do not have that kind of cash I wager.

updated top 10 (ZZ, Klopp, Pep, and Carlo are pipe dreams, and no way BlueCo will rehire Tuchel) the clear top 6 frontfunners for me, I would be over the moon with any of them: bold are the most likely Luis Enrique (hardest pull) Simone Inzaghi (love him and Xavi equally) Xavi Hernández (love him and Simone equally) Cesc Fàbregas (most likely) Hansi Flick (IF Laporta loses the Barca prezzie election, Flick is perhaps gone, if Laporta wins, Flick 100 per cent stays at Barca) Julian Nagelsmann (Germany is one of my darkhorses (along with Portugal and super wild card Senegal) to win the World Cup, they are one of only 12 teams (I would say they are 7th and the last one with at least a 10 per cent chance) with any sort of remote chance: (Spain, England, France, Argentina, Brasil, Portugal, Germany, Netherlands, Norway, Senegal, Belgium, and IF they qualify, Italy) 3 South American sides round out the top 15: Uruguay, Ecuador, and Colombia, IMHO. The last 5 in the top 20 for me are Morocco, Croatia, Switzerland, and IF they qualify, Sweden and Denmark.) I think Nagelsmann ends up at Manure. next 4 potential managers, the end of my top 10: (all 4 will be in super demand, especially if Scaloni wins back to back World Cups and IF Simeone finally leaves AM) Xabi Alonso Lionel Scaloni Abel Ferreira (now in his fifth season at the Brasilian giants Palmeiras, whom he led to two league titles in 2022 and 2023 and claimed the Copa Libertadores twice, in 2020 and 2021, and is one of the favourites for both titles thsi season as well) I have rated him since hsi Braga days. Diego Simeone (yes, I know, he is defensive in nature, but he is a world class mabager and a huge personality, I wanted to put in one contrarian option in my top ten) new wild card down the road (and IF Flick stays at Barca (see above), he probably enters my top 10 at number 10 as we will not re-hire Tuchel): Filipe Luís Finally, the 5 removed from the list altogether: Didier Deschamps Massimiliano Allegri Laurent Blanc Joachim Löw Unai Emery

woot Joao Pedro keeps on scoring

offside

offside

not 75% that is exaggeration

what the FUCK was Tosin doing on that corner kick?? we turned it over and he he just strted walking, WALKING back as most of the rest of the players were all steaming down the field he is a motherfucking disgrace! and even more shameful he is our CAPTAIN tonight
