who do you want as a manager?

We gave Kepa a 7 year contract in 2018, lolol

My favourite player when I first joined TC was allowed to walk on a free

has nothing to do with what's on my profile he is not remotely finished

We have zero ruthless fox in the box finishers it's just so frustrating

I was just going to type that

DDF should have started

should have been a corner, ffs

damn, so close by Thiago

2022-23 English Premier League Chelsea Crystal Palace https://www.sportfacts.net/sports/2023/premier-league-Chelsea-vs-crystal-palace-s2/ https://www.vipleague.st/Chelsea-vs-crystal-palace-1-live-streaming

good analogy Timo pace with a far better shot

Yes, £53m release clause

https://www.football.london/Chelsea-fc/transfer-news/mudryk-Chelsea-squad-status-wage-25981358 On the face of any potential deal that sees Mudryk join Chelsea, the transfer looks to be another expensive acquisition under the Todd Boehly regime begging the question of Financial Fair Play regulations. However, it's not quite as it seems and the Blues are smart plan in place. First and foremost, Mudryk qualifies as an under-21 player in the Premier League this season meaning that Chelsea don't need to unregister a player upon his arrival. But, of course, next season he won't qualify as an under-21 so the club will need to make space. With Mudryk born on January 5 2001, the Premier League rules read: "Under-21 players are eligible over and above the limit of 25 players per squad. Each player is assigned a squad number, which they wear during Premier League matches. For the 2022/23 campaign Under-21 players will have been born on or after 1 January 2001." Then, with the regard to the payment to Shakhtar for the potential transfer of Mudryk, amortisation is protecting Chelsea from breaching FFP by spreading out the instalments. For example, according to FFP, by signing an under-21 on a six-and-a-half-year contract in January, only £40million will appear on this years records with the remaining balance paid over six-and-a-half-years. This is a far more cost efficient process for Chelsea than paying a lump sum release clause up front - for example, the Enzo Fernandez saga. However, while this protects the Blues in the next couple of years it could soon catch up with them. But, this clever planning very much so suggests that the club are planning well, identifying astute deals and pulling the right strings. With regard to Mudryk's prospective wage in west London, The Independent state that Chelsea were willing 'to least double' Arsenal’s offer.

what about his gambling issues?

He is more of a CF than a winger but but Injured CFs are also a Chelsea specialty and injured fullbacks, injured CBs, injured MFers, injured GKers, etc 🤬

his cred took a big old boover boot to the jacobs yikes

you wanna buy a gently used Pulisic? well, not so gently used, but he is good for marketing to the yanks, lolol She won btw, is now Miss Universe

CuCu was worse in terms of overpay IMHO His total cost will be £62 (there was like £7m in addons to the £55m) which is exactly what we are paying in terms of transfer fee for Mudryk the £26.5m in addons for MM are likely (some at least) far less likely to be achieved that the small ones for CuCu I need to see full details the Guardian (I try to always document what I claim, as I am used to posting on hardcore political and academic boards where you get lit the fook up if you cannot back yer shite up with a source): https://www.theguardian.com/football/2022/aug/05/Chelsea-confirm-marc-cucurella-signing-from-brighton-in-62m-deal

no, but you know who could can? besides Enzo (I am still crushed)

I think Arse was crazy to not go for Gapko over Mudryk, as Gapko can play CF as well. If I was them, I would make a move for Arnaut Danjuma (similar to Gapko in terms of flexibility, and even more comfortable as a CF) Also, surely a target must be Yéremy Pino, and I assume they still want Thuram perhaps. I was always puzzled why they wanted a pure LWer (Mudryk) when they have a potential superstar there already in Martinelli. Neither likes to play on the right, and they have Saka as RWer already (no clue why T-Markt lists Saka as RMF, as if you look at games where they play a 4 2 3 1, he is always at the same spot, but sometimes they call him a RMF, and others a RW, even though the formation and play are the exact same) He sure seems a RWer to me, BUT can play as a LWB too (maybe RWB as well) Mudryk is almost ambipedal, he has no issues with shooting with his left foot (his loog passing off his left is not, atm, as good as with his right, BUT his crosses are fine with his left), so he seems like he could play on the RW more so than Martinelli.

Kova is not finished, smdh he is a beast, but needs help, like he gets whilst playing on the Croatian national team

it does seem to be madness
