Can already see how this will pan out.
Pep will specifically target our right side and exploit Azpilicueta.
Pep will suffocate the midfield and wide areas to force us to do what we do best, play backwards.
Silva will be the main source of creativity. He'll look for runs from our forwards but they will be too few to come by.
Havertz will have his 906th stinker.
Pulisic will look like a school boy.
Sterling won't give a fuck.
Mount will look like a headless chicken.
Haaland will get a hattrick.
Potter will say the boys fought hard.
Forest clearly targeted our right side that second half. Azpilicueta has no legs and Koulibaly plays like an 18 year old. Add the fact our midfield couldn't position themselves to transition out of a press and our attack failing to hold onto the ball.
We really need to get these next signings right, because every signing so far as been a mare.
Looks like the Enzo dream is over.
Ornstein just reported we aren’t in the final stages with Benfica at all and won’t be hold ransom. We will walk away if necessary.
With Enzo, he is a young father that is likely looking out for his family.
Playing at a big club, with high wages and in a great area is probably what he’s looking at.
Romano claiming Enzo have given the green light for this move. Contract and personal terms will not be an issue. Chelsea will work with Benfica in the coming days for structure of payment.
That makes sense because any money spent on Youth Development isn't included.
However, I still don't believe the Youth Development definitions mean player purchases, rather building on the youth infrastructure.
