fair enough. but if we had been sensible and had done our business properly (pedro - 22mil, witsel - 22mil, begovic - 8mil), we could have got a very good squad without spending crazy amounts. whats even more baffling is that we still can. but for some god forsaken reason we simply want stones instead of a CM who would actually make us better.

now, please sell him. please... just throw him out.

to be fair, city have sold. ins: sterling - 49mil otamendi - 32mil delph - 8mil unal - 2mil total = 91mil outs nastastic - 10mil negredo - 24mil rekik - 3.5mil boyata - 1.5mil sinclair - 2.5mil hiwula - 0.5mil total = 42mil net spend = 49mil which is not so OTT. by the way, we seem to be buying stones for 40mil. we should not be having any problems with city spending.

such a shame. could have had such a bright career. totally destroyed by us.

whats up with him? why is he still here?

i dont consider zouma as a kid too. but unfortunately jose does. moses is a squad player and a very good one at that. a squad player for me is someone who can put in a shift when some of the first teamers are injured/out of form/out of fitness. the likes of hazard, cuadrdo and willian certainly tick that box and yet moses has not been given a chance, which is what is shocking. but i do agree he should leave for the sake of his career rather than spending time sitting with the reserves and watching rambo play on the wing.

pre-season has been a very good indicator of where we as a team, and where our players stand so far this season. also, moses has been impressive every time he has been given a chance. be it for stoke or our pre-season.i think its high time we gave him an actual shot to see if he can reproduce it for us. as for musonda. have seen him in our post season friendly and a couple other times. looked impressive but if jose is unwilling to give a chance to give a chance to zouma despite our defence being in such a disarray, i have no hope for musonda.

man united would say the same thing. what would chelsea do with stones, they have JT and GC and zouma and iva. he has far far far better chance starting at united than starting at chelsea cos of his skills not just transfer fee.

theres kenedy, traore and the fact that moses has been one of our best performers in pre-season.

link?

then maybe we dont spend 40mil on stones and use it to get a world class CM.

i think as a DM, matic is much better. biscuits might have a better passing range (though he is wrongly accused most of the time of doing just side passes and 5 yard passes), but in positioning, defensive awareness, tackling, etc etc matic is a better player. i personally would take matic over biscuits.

matic? defo better than biscuits.

i am not falling for this again!!! i refuse to get my hopes up.

thank u beasley!!!

like we are doing with shaw? no thank you. "40mil? lmao"

that 50mil set us back atleast 2 years. it cost us sturridge, lukaku. this 40mil may very well cost us zouma (cos i cant see how we can bench a 40mil player and i also cant see us starting 2 21 year olds).

if he wants to start a CB as an RB, then we have zouma who has also played as an RB before for etiene, if i am not wrong. or zouma can play as LB and azpi as a RB. i dont care. iva simply should not be on the team sheet.

this. this is exactly my beef. future chelsea and england captain. how many english talents actually reach their potential. was not barkley supposed to be the next messi or something 2 years ago. where is he now? stones is a good player but not better than the 3 we currently have. spending 40mil on "potential" when we could buy a much needed CM like witsel for half of it is downright insane. when we can buy howedes for half that amount and he would instantly improve us. we already have baba and zouma who will play for the next "decade". we have azpi who will last atleast 5 more years. we have courtois who will definitely play for the next decade and more. enough of this "lets make a new spine". buy a defender who actually improves us right now. not after 5 years.

recall kalas or omerou or christensen. 40mil stones is not the answer.

i think azpi as a RB would be a good option for attack. varane is not happening sadly and stones for 40mil is downright, crazy.

one. CM - witsel.

pedro done. now just ship that cuadrado shit to whoever is crazy enough to give us a bag of peanuts for him. IF we sell moses and not cuadrado, then i ll be so fucking mad.

come on united. u can do this. please pay 3 times the value of an over hyped "potential" player.

probably would have changed kolarov roaming on our right side without any hesitation cos he knew it was only rambo down our right. and also, it probably would have meant rambo playing alongside matic which would not have been given city all the time and space in the world which cesc did.
