So we can sign Rice on Oct 16? Now it makes sense that we left him for the end.

I posted this on Kova thread last month. Kova is best in the league in this with Jorgi and Kante also being very good. But look where are Mount and Rice. So if we play: Rice Havertz Mount I think we would struggle to move the ball forward.

One week to go... Miazga, Sarr, Castillo, JCS, Sterling, Rahman, Van Ginkel, Drinkwater, Bakayoko, Musonda, Moses, Emerson/Alonso, Rudiger, Jorginho, Kepa, RLC are still here... We need to offload more than 2 players per day. And maybe some guys from academy like Maatsen, Anjorin will go on loan too...

Good defensively but many misplaced passes.

Mendy for Willy. Azpi should play also and Chilwell. And Olie.

Zero rumors about him going on loan in the last couple of weeks. Based on what I have seen he could be solid LB backup option for Ben.

So we desperately need DM. Why not try Bakayoko?

Spurs bench today: Hart, Reguilon, Toby, Lamela, Ndombele, Sissoko, Bergwijn. They should play against us. It wont be easy.

Bamford new KDB situation?

Lets see how Dias does in PL. KK, Gimenez, Kounde... They got their 4th choice CB.

City getting Ake and Dias. Spurs Skriniar. Arse Gabriel. There were CBs available this summer but Frank did not think we should spend cash there.

Yeah WH interested in many of our players I can totally see this happening. And from their pov lets say Emerson and RLC would help them in relegation battle more than Declan. But still not sure he is the real deal for us.

Conte must be happy to have Vidal, Nainggolan finally. Not to mention Sanchez, Lukaku... He now has all the players he wanted here.

And people complain about English refs. Help Real Madrid gets is on different level.

But this is not a game off. Barnsley could have easily scored 3 in the 1st half the other day. And apart from Silva we played 3 different players.

We scored 6 goals in the league in 3 games and 4 best attackers scored zero. So this is positive. Kai and Timo can only become much better and Puli and Ziyech are still not fit. Basically we can expect to win games 4-3

Hakimi on the bench for Young. How typical from Conte?

I bet in the next 3 games it will be 3 new lineups that never played before.

Mount was motm today. Looking at how pointless Kova and Kante were today we actually may end up playing with two number 8. But we need to buy DM in the next 10 days.

Never mind.

Tammy was great in Cup, today not so much. That was just a tap in. Olie also scored a goal and Timo won 2 penalties.
