It's not great but Charlton should have been prepared for that possibility when they agreed to the recall clause. Think you've been here long enough to know it's not a surprise anymore, especially when that's coming from the same people every time. There are always weirdos on here.

Spurs have signed Gedson...

I don't know how reliable the fella is but meh. Just because they may make a move, doesn't mean he'll actually join them and Werner did say before he would like to play in the Premier League. https://www.fourfourtwo.com/features/werner-i-dream-playing-premier-league-im-more-man-united-liverpool The Man United/Liverpool bit though...

What, can't take a joke now?

Spurs have kept only 1 clean sheet in 14 games under Mourinho and have lost all the games against the 'big teams' (Man United, Chelsea, Bayern, Liverpool)...

So, Newcastle cruised to a 4-1 win over Rochdale. Almiron scored his 3rd goal in as many games and Joelinton got his 1st since August...

I don't get why the CB rumors have kept on persisting. We aren't selling Rudiger, we aren't selling Tomori, we aren't selling Zouma and Lampard has already ruled out selling Christensen, especially after he backed up his words by playing him at the weekend. If there is a defensive position that we need to bolster in January, it's the left back position. Otherwise, it's a waste of resources to consider it at least until the summer.

Also, just noticed that he's already 28 year old...maybe time to sell him (cc @Vesper)

Going to Swansea it seems...

But the story above says they won't be getting him, because they want some form of permanent deal but we aren't willing to do that.

Looks like Barcelona are gonna sack Valverde very soon. But the way they have gone about seeking his replacement has been a disgrace though.

https://www.goal.com/en/news/lampard-barkley-is-of-equal-value-to-kante-and-chelsea/z9875ml97spt1t731a8kr3n26 Lampard seems to really like Barkley A LOT...

I'd call that Lewis Dunk rumor BS. It came from The Times and we don't look like selling a CB this window, especially after Lampard backed Christensen in the public through his words and action by playing him on Saturday. Also, it makes no sense to go after Dunk when we could buy Ake for less and he's more versatile too! Don't be surprised if we end up not buying anyone though.

Pulisic on breaking through at Burnley, moving from US to Germany to England, being part of the young group of players under Lampard... (video interview in link below) https://www.skysports.com/watch/video/sports/football/teams/chelsea/11905663/pulisic-premier-league-is-a-dream
