The Skipper

I would've liked him ahead of Baba tbh. Very good fullback, similar price.

Please, football gods. Don't play with my heart.

Well not for me. I was infuriated when we signed Cuadrado. For me he's never been good enough.

There's no need to spend £39m on a 19 year old we won't even play that often... BS.

It really wasn't. Cuadrado was never in Pedro's league, I don't think he's ever even scored 10 goals in a season before. Pedro has proven that he's a very good player over several seasons. Pedro is like a more mature Schurrle. Which is exactly what we need. Cuadrado was always a poor man's Willian.

Cheaper than Cuadrado and Willian... Let that sink in.

Edited. Hope you're satisfied

It's wishful thinking more than anything because of the latter statement you made - Jose just doesn't give our kids a chance so yeah. I don't really count Kurt as a kid though btw. Moses however for me personally I've never rated him as anything higher than a squad player and don't think he'll ever be anything more here. He should leave for the sake of his career, he's a decent enough player but not good enough for the top top teams IMO. Stoke is his level.

Fabregas -> Pedro -> Costa -> Goal.

Honestly, pre season performances mean nothing at all to me. Musonda is more talented and has higher football IQ than all three.

Not good enough.

I bet you Ivanovic starts. I hope I'm wrong but I wouldn't be surprised whatsoever.

Please Juve. You can keep Pogba for one more season if it means you'll buy this coleslaw off us.

Not true, he tweeted a week or so ago that it'll be a busy few weeks for CFC in the next few days/weeks.

Sell Moses and Cuadrado, confirm Pedro, promote Musonda as the 5th AM. Hazard, Pedro, Willian, Oscar & Musonda. Solid.

Asamoah is so much better.

I refuse to believe this is happening.

Well, I was previously against this but I've definitely come around now. If we ship off Cuadrado this is a massive improvement to our AMs. Hazard, Oscar, Willian, Pedro. That's solid. And it also gives you a nice platform to improve on I.e. If a bigger talent became available at RW. I would also get rid of Moses and get Stones.

Fabregas? Costa?

Atm they've only got Stones, Jag and Holgate (who's more of an U21 player if I'm correct). They need a CB irregardless of whether Stones stays or not.

They needed a back up centre back anyway.

He's always been Spanish.

I suppose we can expect him to "give all his best" then.

Haha, personally I haven't seen that. He is a level below them guys but he does have the potential to be amongst those players. I haven't really seen the English media doing that.

Exactly. Memphis has finishing in his blood, he's ruthless with it. Eden just isn't that player unfortunately. I said it when he joined that the biggest thing he needs to work on is his finishing and got heckled for it, but honestly it looks like that was true and sadly, it doesn't seem like he has progressed in that aspect of his play at all. He gets himself into very good positions to shoot sometimes. If Eden shot more accurately, he'd definitely get defenders to panic more whenever he got into the box, but it's like the defenders know he won't shoot.
