Strike

He maybe a Geordie but it is unwise to sell him even at a decent price like 35m. He just signed a 6+1 year contract and we don't know what the situation is with Maatsen's contract talks. A loan would be best for all parties - his value is only going to rise

Thankful he signed a 6 year deal. I'd prefer he goes to Palace because gametime looks more secure

Got both the main CDM targets that Liverpool were also targeting...after we finished 12th in the league.

Good time to play them. They are yet to get all their new signings settled

Caicedo and Lavia - the best possible DMs in the market. Giving me Roman 04/05 vibes. Showed Liverpool their place.

if this is the performance before Caicedo slots in and we make more improvements, then it's not looking too bad. Nkunku was a big miss but Chukwuemeka took up good positions today

Levi Colwill was outstanding.

Andre Santos can come in second half

Didn't get why Chelsea triggered Tyler Adams release clause. Could have picked him up if Lavia did not join. Too caught up in transfer poker. Hope they seal the moves this weekend.

Within a day, we've gone from Tyler Adams partnering Enzo to Lavia and Caicedo. Let's wait till it is all official.

Sky saying the Tyler Adams move has collapsed.

The dirty scouse, They paid his fee, But Caicedo said it’s not for me, He got the call from Todd Boehly, And off he went to play for Chelsea! He hates the scouse, he hates the scouse, he hates the scouse, and he hates the Scouse! 🎶

Not even a comparison. With the directors it is just Ugarte and Caicedo and there are reasonable arguments for not paying so much for Ugarte. There were the failed bids for Raphinha, De Ligt, Kounde, Lavia, Jesus and not to mention the signings - Cucurella, Koulibaly, Aubameyang, Fofana,

Overkill at this point. 4 CBs is plenty for a season without Europe

There’s a release clause anyway - 35mil

Could be that Angelo is sticking around the first team

Would be a bad idea if the club is looking to sign a winger. Angelo would be 3rd choice on the right

So far, Thiago Silva hasn't looked out of place even in a back 4. But its great we have 4 solid CB options. When Silva leaves, Fofana and Disasi will be the RCB options hoping Fofana recovers

Enzo in January

Sanchez fee is £20m + 5m

it is not about pre-season form but whether those two will be able to perform well in their positions over 6-8 months. Gallagher is not a defensive mid and a pivot of Gallagher-Enzo is a disaster waiting to happen.

Gallagher in the pivot, Carney and Sterling in attack. We need reinforcements - Caicedo and Kudus
