Plus if its 100m euros, then even better. Apparently the last 10m euros are on PL/CL champions based. So perfect.

This thread is LOOOOONNNNGGGG overdue. Thank you MARINA 💙

Totally agree about Kante, but dont think we have an option. Jorginho in the team makes us weaker, Kova-Kante pivot has its issues (though i still think it will be one of FL's go to moves). Kante as a sitting DM might hurt us offensively a bit, but also give some semblance of defensive cover to what has become a VERY top heavy team. I have no doubt about it that atleast for the coming season, we are going to be looking to just outscoring teams.

Yup that pivot will have its issues, but it will still be our best option at times. But I have no doubt the 4-3-3 you posted might be the most used XI of our next season (as of this moment). Given how the squad is, you can understand why there were rumors that we would be listening to offers for Kante. If we can swap kante for Rice, would be the best thing for us as getting that sitting DM is necessary and the next thing in this team's evolution

Kante is our best bet for a DM next season (if things stay exactly as they are as of this moment). I think Kai and ziyech will be switched with ziyech playing cnetrally and Kai on the wings in attack. Which leaves us with either mount or Kova in a 4-3-3 (no 8s/10s) or 4-2-3-1 with Kova and kante playing the double pivot. Dont think @MoroccanBlue's team was very off from what we will be playing next season.

There is a difference between generational talent and "World beater". He is NOT a world beater at this moment. He is still a brilliant player but young (very young), will have his odd poor games. Just look at Felix for an example. But he will be as good if not better than eden was for us in terms of quality.

Anyone who has watched him can attest that he is a generational talent. Very much like Felix was.

This is the best thing I have seen in a long time. Get in. So hyped, last time itna hyped eden ke liye tha.

Lol

Chilwell could be out for 6 weeks more and without any pre-season. That would mean alonso will start the first 6-7 games at least. People still think Alonso should be our no.2??? Lol Need to buy reguilon and have good cover. Otherwise more of the same this season.

Like I said, we can surely get a loan for him or a 20m€ bid. We might not rate baka, but there are teams that surely do. He had 2 good/decent loans spells and was quite good with Monaco in the 1st stint too.

For 20m€ (rumored asking price)? I would say play hardball and milan cave. The player is willing to take a pay cut too (50% rumored), it's a great deal for milan. I am sure baka will find a decent number of suitors for 20m€.

It's as "rumored" as the bakayoko deal which has not been finalized yet too, right? Jason quoted a tweet above and a normal Google search would suffice in showing emerson is on his way out for the above mentioned fee.

What? Chilwell is "Hardly an improvement" on alonso and emerson? Really? Did you watch Leicester for the first 20 games?

Tbf to her, we have conned inter into paying 25m€ for emerson. That's massive given he ain't worth 2.5😂

Got to call it as BS. No way will the club let an "option" happen again. We can't possibly be that naive, can we?

Btw, if silva comes in (Please god). What do you think our options for CB should be for the next season? We will have 6 CBs for 4 slots - Silva Zouma Ampadu Tomori Andreas Rudiger I have listed them down in terms of my priority. Rudi should be sold. Just not good enough. Another similar season, and we will have another immovable dreg. Andreas is a weird one. You can see the technique and the talent, but the execution is poor. Probably a loan spell for him? Zouma was our best CB for the season, and should be the partner for silva. I really rate and like ampadu. I feel if given the oppurtunity, he will really shine and show his class. Would love to know what everyone else thinks? Who would be your 4 CBs for the seasoj?

PSG is offloading him for the same reason we offloaded JT just a season after one in which he played 38 PL games, was one of the best CBs in the league and won us the PL too, which is moving on One person's trash is another's gold. We need a leader. Some one to control the backline. And organize shit. Clearly our first choice was Jimenez or rice. But we cant afford them with the lay over we already have this season. So if it's next season, silva is a perfect stop gap signing. Hardly costs us anything in wages or fees. And gives us exactly what we need in defence

So?

Don't think he is possible. The fee (120m€) + wages (350kpw) make it impossible for us to buy him. Specially when we already have an expensive GK on our books.

I think inter board would have been well aware that Conte might not be their manager next year, so don't think the transfer was just due to Conte. Also, emerson has a lot of interests from the likes of Napoli and Juve.

I think chilwell is a better all-round player. His defence is definitely way better than reguilon's. Both are the same age too. I would definitely flip alonso for reguilon and let RM have a buyback clause for a couple of years. And then flip reguilon for a profit. Think chilwell has a higher ceiling if the first half of the season is anything to go by.

He is such a fucked up guy. I mean, what else can the board give you for you to stay? Lukaku, sanchez, martinez, Eriksen, hakimi, emerson ( probable), tonali (probably). And yet he keeps throwing his toys out of the pram. Conte might be one of the best tacticians in our generation, but is also probably one of the weirdest ones I have seen

I think that was pretty evident since weeks. And reports say that emerson is close to the inter move.

Roma were in talks for jorginho and I am 100% sure Barkley will be sold.
