I would be absolutely gutted if there is no option to buy at the end of this loan.
Putting that aside, it is still a great addition for this season. It also means that we are finally looking at proper players.
No more Drinkwaters ffs.
If we get:
Kovacic, Kepa, maybe Fekir on top of Jorginho.
I will literally piss my pants.
I'm beyond excited right now.
It actually seems to good to be true.
Having Costa and having Morata are completely diffrrent scenarios. I would be happy with Costa and Bats. I would not be happy with just Morata and Giroud. There simply isn't enough goals between them.
Rumours hotting up. Bats to Saville on loan. We must be in the market for another striker if that's the case. No way, Sarri is going into his first season with only Morata and Giroud as his striking options. It would be career suicide.
Exactly. Why on Earth would he swap sunny Spain with garunteed CL football for the smog filled City of London garunteeong Europa League trips on a Thursday night. Nobody is that dumb.
This guy is an animal. Would love him here. It would be a fantastic signing in my humble opinion. Excellent ball control. Epic runs from deep. Can pass. Even has the odd 5 star skill move in his locker.
Mate, I swear, I keep reading about this 'Hamsick Role'. It doesn't exist ffs.
There was and only is the Makalele role because he revolutionised that position.
Hamsick just played his position well. That is it.
This is a problem.
What ever happens this season. Do not expect a great one. Sarri has had fuck all time to do anything.
If Eden goes. We are in big trouble.
Calm down lads. Seriously. We knew we would lose in all honesty. I dont think we have been embarrassed though. Not yet. Not like we did under Conte. You can see the attacking approach is there. Just neef better players unfortunately on certain positions. I'll be amazed if we dont see one more player at least in this transfer window.
I feel sorry for Jorginho. He will get stick for today and yea he has been slow and sloppy on the ball but the other two in midfield are not helping whatsoever. Fabregas has been awful.
We actually dominated City on terms of possession. Defensively we look soo vunarable. Jorginho doesn't have the legs to protect the back four against a team like City.
I can actually see Kante and Jorginho playing in the double pivot role with a Barkley or Hazard in front of them in the 10 role.
We havent been as bad on the last 10 minues. Citys press has dropped off. Jorginho is completely isolated. Fabregas offers him fuck all whilst Barkley is trying to press up.
