Honestly not that impressed with De Jong. He hasn’t exactly set the world alight at Barca. He’s a good player but not a great one yet. United fans are creaming themselves as though he’s going to be their midfield savior. I’m not saying this just because I’m a Chelsea fan, but for me Connor Gallagher looks more impressive when watching their YouTube highlights than De Jong does.
-
True. But if we can sign some of these players we’re linked with they’re all huge upgrades. Borna Sosa replacing Alonso would be a colossal upgrade at a relatively inexpensive price. And he’s right there on Chilwell’s level in my opinion so that would be great competition at LWB.
-
I actually think he’d be well suited to Barca. It’s Azpi who I’m not sure why they want. As we saw in the final the other day against Liverpool, Alonso is still very capable of being a dangerous attacking threat which you know Barca loves. Azpi is washed up on both ends of the pitch. Barca would be doing us a tremendous favor by taking all 3 of Azpi, Alonso, and AC. We will be considerably stronger next season with new players replacing them.
-
Top class player. We should be all over him. No clue why City don’t want to extend him since he’s their second best CM after KDB.
-
He doesn’t rely on pace or athleticism and has never been the sort of striker who is going to beat players with skill. He’s a pure, lethal finisher around the box. One of the best ever, in fact. So I think he’ll be fine for a while as he gets older. Give him chances and he’ll score 25 PL goals. Ironically, he would’ve been absolutely picture perfect in City’s team rather than Haaland.
-
Think it’ll still be a season early for that, but can 100% see them being in the West Ham/Leicester/Wolves vicinity. A team that’ll give every big team a game.
-
With Haaland at City, Kane is stuck at Spuds for good. Nowhere for him to go this summer. With United keeping hold of CR7 they have no room for him either and they were the only other possible destination.
-
Again, I’m not saying Lewa is finished. I’m just saying that older players tend to want to take it a bit easier late in their careers. He could absolutely still play at the very highest level for another couple of seasons.
-
Don’t see any reason for Conte to leave. Not unless PSG immediately sack Poch. Then I think those two just swap jobs. But with Kane & Son still there and with a couple more top signings he could solidify them as a top 4 side for a while.
-
We’ve got to have our own recruitment super dialed in and spot on this summer. Because I think both Spuds and United will be having their biggest summers ever and both will be much better next season with top managers in position.
-
Only downside here is that Spuds will be one hell of a dangerous team if Levy allows Conte to sign 3-4 more of his players. They will be MUCH more dangerous in the CL than Arse would’ve been as well. So are small part of me would rather have had Arse finish 4th because so long as they have Arteta in charge they ain’t doing any serious damage. Conte will be a problem.
-
Oh, don’t get me wrong, he’d score plenty. But the grind and slog of a 60 game season in England at this stage of his career seems silly. He has already done it all. If I were him I’d have a nice couple of years in sunny Spain.
-
Every week it seems like loads of doom and gloom stories come out about how the deal is in danger. Then by the end of the week they get debunked and they say a deal is close. FFS, can we just get this shit over with?
-
Their ownership group is probably offering him hundreds of millions under the table in addition to his mega salary so I wouldn’t be shocked if he stayed. He’d be an idiot to waste his prime years in a league nobody cares about and continue to choke in the CL.
-
Softest Chelsea player I’ve ever seen. Not only will I not be bothered when he’s gone, I’ll be glad. If we can replace him with Koundé in that RCB position it’s a considerable upgrade if for no other reason than he isn’t a total pussy like AC.
-
Everton 😂😂😂 Well, at least they may have to try to win against Arse on the final day if they fuck up again.
-
Dybala has apparently confirmed he’s officially leaving Juve. Should we try?
-
West Ham are a massive pain in the ass to deal with so it’s probably impossible to sign any of their better players whilst they’re on long contracts. Both Rice and Bowen are surely off out of the question, unfortunately.
-
Really is insane that Spuds are so close to us now. We’ve been vastly superior in every way all season long and yet they could potentially finish above us if we choke. So many ridiculous draws against teams we were so much better than.
-
Think Spuds will pip Arse to top 4. They’ll batter Norwich in their final game. Can honestly see Arse losing both their remaining games.
-
Despite his injury problems these days he’s still far too good for us to allow him to go to a side we’ll be competitive for top 4 with next year. He would make United’s midfield considerably better. If we let him go it should only be to somewhere like PSG.
-
I just don’t get how he can score some of the most difficult looking technical goals but then also miss easy chance after easy chance. There are times when he looks like our best attacking player and other times where you forget he’s on the pitch. Yesterday he looked more dangerous than both Salah and Mané but had the composure of a 17 year old making his debut in front of goal. Really don’t know what we should do with him this summer. If he leaves I wouldn’t be devastated but if he stays I would t mind. But we absolutely cannot go into next season with CP, Werner, CHO, and Ziyech as our wide options and expect to get near City and Liverpool.
-
Obviously that’s what I meant. He looked finished at the end of his Arse stay. Then goes to Barca and looks solid again. Lewa can probably go there and score 30 league goals next season.
-
An older striker like Lewa who has accomplished everything choosing to come to the most difficult league? Can’t imagine him wanting that. Can go chill in Barcelona and score a bucket load against more farmers like he has in Germany for another couple of seasons. Look at what Auba has done there compared to how horrendous he was at Arse.
-
If we could by some miracle sell both Werner and Lukaku this summer and sign replacements for both we could take that next step. But I just can’t see who would take either of them for the money we’d be looking for.
