U cant make it up. For 2 years 90% of our fanbase moans about Gallagher not being good enough for Chelsea, pointing out every bad game he has and when he gets sold the club gets called clowns. The real clowns are the Chelsea fans.
Thats the thing: just over 1 year ago, a certain 25yo Gyökeres war playing in the Championship as well. And now, people here are willing to pay over 70-80m for him.
Agreed, but Im not so sure if he even wants to go. After some initial reports it has gone very quiet. Could have been some agent pr. On the other hand: do we want to spend big big money on someone who hasnt scored more than 11 goals per season in his career? Jackson outperformed him last season, and even tho Alvaraez didnt play as a number 9 all the time, even when he did, he wasnt better than Jackson.
Guirassy wants to stay in Germany, 90% at BVB, Dovbyk is just another gamble, didnt like him at all yesterday, Zirkzee just another young very inconsistent striker and Openda? Not really a number 9, too short.
Nothing to lose here really.
Also, City will probably beat us no matter of the gameweek we play them, so its better to have this once out of the way when we are still finding chemistry.
