I am sure its bullshit, but...... Transfer: Real Madrid now willing to sell Pochettino’s top target for £68m https://dailypost.ng/2023/06/20/transfer-real-madrid-now-willing-sell-pochettinos-top-target-for-68m/ Real Madrid are now willing to listen to offers of around £68 million for Chelsea target Aurelien Tchouameni to leave the club. The 23-year-old has struggled to impress at Real Madrid since he joined from AS Monaco for around £86 million last summer. The France international was signed as a replacement for Toni Kroos but failed to displace the German and Eduardo Camavinga in his side last campaign. The 2022 FIFA World Cup finalist fell down the pecking order as the campaign progressed, starting just 17 of 39 club games since the turn of the year. As a result, Real Madrid are hoping to cash in on the 22-cap France international before his transfer value suffers a drop. They are prepared to let go of their holding midfielder for £68 million to recoup most of their initial investment. El Nacional reports that Chelsea manager Mauricio Pochettino is said to be keeping a close eye on Tchouameni as he aims to refresh his midfield.

bollocks only ill-informed idiots

he is a RB who had a fluke good season as a wrong-footed LB, but then crashed out playing on that side

yes, very

wooooooooooooooooot

I like Italy — it’s nice country. 🤣 lolol

😍

yes

those cunts would poutrage if we bought baby jeebus for the academy

he needs to be loaned out to get minutes

Partey? he utterly collapsed down the stretch go ask any sane (granted that is difficult, lol) goona what they think of him If we buy him I will fucking SNAP might as well buy this bloke (Baka 2.0): if we are going bindippong for DMFs (I am joking about buying Sangare) plus Partey is 30yo

I don't believe that they have big, big fullback issues (if we bought ANY of their FBs I would lose my mind) and a MASSIVE hole at CF with Benz gone Joselu cannot fill that, I cannot see that happening maybe they think the 18yo (19yo in 23 days) Álvaro Rodríguez is going to blow up they also have only 2 viable wingers (granted the 2nd best and a top 10er on the planet) unless they are going to use Valverde as an emergency winger

because he is shit?

tough call probably either is fine with me

he wants Real

and so it begins

I see so many say, 'but but, buy an established star CF' well there is just not that many viable buy CFs to choose from: the pipe dreams, not happening: Kylian Mbappé (and I always contend he is a winger, not a CF, he dislikes playing CF) Victor Osimhen (simply too expensive and we have no CL) my number one target for ages but the money is just not there, thanks to Boehly's clown spends plus we collapsed for europe Julián Álvarez (as if Pep is going to sell him knowing Håland is gone in a year or 2) then Harry Kane (crazy hard pull, only if a fair price. so doubtful for many reasons) Randal Kolo Muani (likely too expensive though, they want €100m, and is he actually better than the next two? Maybe, but I cannot see is dumping 100m euros on him) the only two serious options (besides Jackson) left and they are both expensive AF and super hard to pull: Dusan Vlahovic Lautaro Martínez and many here do not rate those 2 either the rest: Jonathan David (will be double the cost of Jackson, and many here do not rate him as a 'lead the line' CF) Ivan Toney (suspension fucks it) Gonçalo Ramos (they demand £80m, that is too much IMHO) Rasmus Højlund (off my board, as Atalanta want an insane €100m, no bargaining) Marcus Thuram (free transfer, but is he better than Jackson? Likely going to AC Milan) Aleksandar Mitrović (would be cray expensive for what we would get, not a Poch style striker at all) Hugo Ekitiké (PSG said not for sale, and is he really better than Jackson?) Benjamin Sesko (almost no chance RB sells him on after just getting him in a couple weeks) then youth: Marcos Leonardo Brasil 20yo Vitor Roque Brasil youth 18yo Alejo Véliz Argie youth 19yo Estevão Willian 16yo Palmeiras youth

he was not at the top of my lists, but I did list him as a possible target

disagree Ligue 1 Goal of the Year: 2003–04 Ligue 1 Player of the Month: January 2004, May 2004 Ligue 1 Player of the Year: 2003–04 Ligue 1 Team of the Year: 2003–04 Onze d'Or: 2004 The Onze d'Or (alternative name: Onze Mondial European Footballer of the Year) is an association football award given by French magazine Onze Mondial since 1976. The award honors the best player in Europe, with any player in a European league eligible. Since 1991, there has also been a vote for the best coach of the year.

rates who? I rate Toney and I am not at all negative on Jackson, I had him in a list of possible CFs back in May here I am obviously not a pro, and especially never claimed royalty scouting status (lolol) but at least let me find out who Hulk was talking about (meaning did I actually say I did not rate some player)
