So we pay Barca 4 times more money for 5 years older Auba. Wow. Not the same prices for certain clubs.

7 and a half years contract +1.

Scored tonight for Brazil u20 team as a captain on South American championship. Played in double pivot.

He has just one year of contract left. And his new salary won't be much lesser so should be easy to resolve.

Kessie 1g 2a tonight for Barca.

We are moving to 4231 so that means we'll need more attacking players. If everyone has a backup that is 8 attacking players needed. Mudryk Madueke Havertz Sterling Nkunku Let's say these 5 are certain for next season. We will see what's going to happen with Felix. Pulisic and Ziyech are clearly leaving. Auba is mistake and everyone knows it so for sure he won't be here either. Club as we heard sees Kai as number 10. One of Mount/Gallagher is staying so they can also occupy that position. Maybe we keep as squad players to fill the squad youngsters like Broja, Fofana, CC.

Nothing gives me more pleasure than Pep failures. So I'm enjoying this. Not one single player from Arsenal would walk into starting 11 for City. And manager was your assistant. Embarrassing.

From what I heard this is true and only after we lost to Fulham we decided to sign Mudryk.

Didn't also realise he is homegrown. This is very important. Even if he's 4th choice winger still would be something positive.

So selling academy players is best possible thing regarding FFP? For sure one of Mount/Gallagher is leaving in the summer. And CHO. That's gonna be around 70m. Will help a lot.

Clearly long plan is to move to 4231.

January transfer windows are always quiet but this is just mad. Badiashile Felix Mudryk Madueke Caicedo? Time will tell but by the looks of it we had worst summer transfer window ever and best winter window ever. Just my prediction.

Todd pays with big bag of money on the table? 😆

For sure the deal will be done. Around 2 more weeks of transfer window and we already offered 65m. So just 10m difference. We can put adds one, player on loan etc...

Not match fit. After being out so long 3 days of training is not enough. They are essential for us and should be introduced back slowly. First 20 minutes from the bench.

Playing with Mount 😂 On a serious note both Mount and Havartz gave us nothing last season and a half. CL run is still best thing you can say about them. At least Kai didn't do so much damage like Mount who is number one reason we lost both Cup finals last season.

And what happened to money from sale? All went to Ukraine? I read also somewhere that 1.75b is already planned for stadium.

Why media always says 88m signing and not 62m? They know for sure we gonna win CL and PL soon?

It doesn't matter. Who buys kits mostly? 12 years old kids and he is very popular among this group. So not hard to guess they are also the ones who religiously go to vote for POTY.

Yeah, I also saw from many sources that we double his Arsenal offer which was 50k so he is playing for 100k.

Already my favorite player 😂

I agree he hasn't been anywhere close to what he can or should be but of last 9 Chelsea goals he scored 4 and assisted one. If he is atrocious and abysmal what can we say about other attacking players? Of all Chelsea attacking players he is the last one I would sell.

This is what people way more important than him are doing. Russian players couldn't play Wimbledon last year for example.

Argentina winning Brazil away in Copa America final is more impressive than what they did at WC. Enzo wasn't even part of that team. On WC they basically draw with average Holland team and also draw with France without possibly 5,6 starters out. Lucas, Kimpembe, Kante, Pogba, Nkunku and Benzema. Considing 5 goals in those 2 games. Martinez saved in last minute of OT a loss and also he did the same against Australia in last 16 game and prevented another overtime. They lost against Saudi Arabia and beat horrid Poland and Mexico. Semis against Croatia was their best game. So Enzo or no Enzo, question is, is he really that important for them?

“Overall, it was the same [offer]. Not approximately the same — it was the same figure. The fixed part, variable part, bonuses. But if you look inside the fixed part and bonuses, it was completely different. “Different time (schedule) of the payments, different kinds of bonuses. Yes, we can talk about bonuses, but these bonuses should be somehow achievable and realistic, let’s say. Therefore, in this case, Chelsea was much more serious and fair in some points. “When we met Chelsea, we stayed all together. For you to understand the context, it was for nine or 10 hours. They invited the player and explained to us the whole project. We realised that, yes, if you look right now, Chelsea have some kinds of problems but it is normal because they have a transition period from one owner to another. It is understandable. They would like to change a lot. “So when they explain to you the whole story and you look for the next two, three, four, five years, then you see they have a serious project. I believe they will build one of the best clubs in the world because I am telling you, they are very serious in all directions: sports science, the stadium side, the commercial side, on all things. For us, they looked very ambitious.” -Sergei Palkin; source: The Athletic
