Salomon Kalou Exclusive: Abramovich’s Secret House, Drogba’s Ferrari & THAT Ballack Punch-Up - The Obi One Podcast John Obi Mikel and Salomon Kalou have had a brotherly bond since their days together at Chelsea. And that unique friendship is on display here as the two men reunite for a candid and, at times, hilarious jaunt down memory lane. Here, Kalou recounts the lengths José Mourinho went to scout him in person at Feyenoord, his first meeting with Roman Abramovich at a place where ‘everyone signed on the dotted line’ and why he wasn’t so keen on Didier Drogba’s expensive Ferrari! Mikel can’t resist teasing his friend over one of the more unique hairstyles we’ve seen in the Premier League, and why he always had to have a stocked fridge! Kalou also finally reveals what really happened between himself and Michael Ballack that led to their infamous training ground dust-up. Settle in for this one, as two Chelsea greats chew the fat about the glory days on the pitch, and the mad times off it.

he turns 19yo in 77 minutes

perhaps, but he is still only 21yo time will tell the 4 best (IMHO) right-footed left wingers who are even remotely available are all going to be frightfully expensive (£80m to over £100m perhaps) and IF Vini Jr leaves RM, he will be closer to £150m (and would likely never come here anyway) Kenan Yıldız Bradley Barcola Morgan Rogers (and he is not a pure winger) Yan Diomande after those 4 (all of whom are super hard pulls) I would say the next best (again they must be somewhat available) would be: Rafael Leão (having a great season return per minute wise (10 goals and 2 assists in only 1450 minutes, but he soon turns 27yo, in June) Nico Williams (insane wages though) Anthony Gordon Rodrygo tore up his knee ACL Said El Mala (bonus - he is ambipedal) 19yo, 20yo in August, 1.87m tall, tracking to a 3500 minute return of 24 goals and 12 assists for 1.FC Köln Iliman Ndiaye (but he is 26yo now and turns 27 towards the end of winter next season, plus prefers RW despite being a right-footer) Malick Fofana Kevin Schade Jesús Rodríguez Assane Diao Jean-Mattéo Bahoya Dan Ndoye Antonio Nusa Ibrahim Mbaye Crysencio Summerville Matías Fernández-Pardo loose ends: Cody Gapko has regressed a lot, and Mason Greenwood (who is having a crazy good season) is not an option due to the assault and battery/rape madness the great unavailables at LWer (including a few AMFs (in italics) who are righted footed and do play at times at LW AND also I list Mbappe as he is the best left winger on the planet atm when he plays there, and along with CF Harry Kane and RWer Lamal is DEFFO one of the top 3 players overall, as Håland has went limp lately) Kylian Mbappé Vinicius Junior (may, may leave, although I doubt it) Jamal Musiala (injured still and more of an AMF or SS type than a pure winger) Khvicha Kvaratskhelia ambipedal Désiré Doué (pretty much ambipedal and deffo can play LW as well) Raphinha (the rare lefty who prefers LW) Florian Wirtz (I still think he comes good, but is more of an AMF than a LWer, although he, like Musiala, can play both) Luis Díaz Fermín López Antoine Semenyo Jérémy Doku Marcus Rashford (Barca is buying him perm) Dani Olmo

Manchester United have reportedly cooled their interest in a possible transfer move for Galatasaray striker Victor Osimhen. (Foot Mercato)

Jörgensen was solid last night IMHO I was far less nervous with his passing and ball play than I have been the last month plus with Sánchez
