Yeah, it is annoying this thing with Covid. I was hoping Sicily this summer but no chance. How is Gran Canaria in December? Not sure you were there in winter?

PL starting today 1st round is usually difficult because you do not know what to expect... So I wont risk much. I am thinking Chelsea, Spurs, Leicester and Arsenal to win or draw. This should double your money. Good luck to everyone who is betting.

@Unionjack Whenever you feel inspired this is the thread for you...

Havertz is world treasure and should be cherished. Guys like Drinkwater or Barkley deserve what they got for some stupid things they did. But Pizzy said he was joking, so I stopped there.

WBA comes to SB in April. We should have fans on stadiums by then so it would be great to see Bane getting warm welcome.

Nice to have you back bro The situation with Mount is pretty clear to me. Even tho some suggested he will be a starter next season with Kai as number 8s I cannot see it. From everything Frank said in the last couple of days about Kante, and our interest in Rice, not to mention how good Kova is, it is easy to understand we will play 4-2-3-1. Mount cannot play deeper. So he will be Havertz backup. But still he will play a lot. When Havertz or even Ziyech (Kai will move to RW) are injured or rested he will jump in. I do not like to see him on wing but he will play even there like we saw last season. So he will play a lot. About being threatened by Havertz I think there is a bit of truth in that. I mean he showed up in training on Wednesday unlike every other player who had game the day before for national team. Kova, Giroud, Kante, CHO, Chris, Abraham all played the same day but were not there. So looks like Mount did not want to take day off. This is great mentality to have and also great for him, Chelsea and Frank but I imagine a few eye rolling among players who did not even think about going to training on day off when they saw the pics from training. https://weaintgotnohistory.sbnation.com/2020/9/9/21429666/pictures-chelsea-back-in-training-including-pulisic-havertz-werner-mount-jorginho-etc Btw I am not criticizing Mount for this, just observation since you mentioned egos.

He just went to masquerade party ffs And the guy plays piano. I do not like anime or Harry Potter but if he does that is still much better than usual football player who did not read one book in life and only cares about whores, cars and new hairstyles... Crazy, right?

So you do not trust academy boys like Tammy I see

We do not know how much money they offered him. Looks like no one wants to give him 20m. But my point is: If City offer him 20m, Barca lets say 17m, Bayern and Real 16m it is pretty clear to me that he would come to PL.

Aston Villa last summer spent 160m and sold players for 4m. This summer already spent close to 50m and now they are close to Rashica and Martinez from Arsenal. If AV can have 250m net spend over two summers why are some here worried about how Rice would be too much? In the same period we have around 40m euros net spend. And if you add loan fees for last season and this season as well that number would be close to zero. So yeah, we can easily afford Rice even without selling anyone.

This is true but it seems we cannot get any money for Emerson, If Inter give us 25m for Alonso I think we will accept it. And some said after Kolarov Inter will not go for new LB/LWB but Kolarov will play LCB so I think this is true.

If Kepa has a good game against Brighton and keep a clean sheet I cannot see Frank changing anything for the next game.

Alaba ONLY wants 20m per year...

Based only on YT videos, Cakir and others look better than Mendy. You cannot find one spectacular save from him. He is the first signing in the last couple of years that gives me Bakayoko vibes. But what do I know, I will trust in Cech on this.

I am glad he said this.

Nike can do nice kit when they want.

After Ole and Jurgen, Jose joined this group. Loving it!

The Sun...

Player/assistant in Denmark.

Only loans... Can we sell someone ffs?

'I earn so much money - but it doesn't solve anything': Chelsea's £110,000-per-week outcast Danny Drinkwater reveals he's seeing a psychologist as he opens up on drink-driving, being attacked in a nightclub, headbutting a team-mate and personal problems https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-8717901/Chelsea-midfielder-Danny-Drinkwater-opens-difficult-two-years.html# lol at this thread, nothing related to football for years
