  1. This forum was way too optimistic after couple of results
  2. I'm curious what are you basing this on? I think there's every chance we regress under Poch. Even the best case scenario under Poch was that he is holding the role to provide some stability before we can bring in a top manager. I think Poch should continue because I don't see a standout manager available right now.
  3. I think we've had good players - Rudiger, Kante. But no one consistent in the attacking positions that usually win POTM
  4. Villa, West Ham and Spurs have been losing frequently. I would like to wait before thinking that the overall performance levels have increased. A much bigger sample size is needed before thinking we've turned a corner. Although I am happy to continue with Poch rather than uproot the system again
  5. First Chelsea player since Eden to win this thing
  6. Real life Football Manager side quest.
  7. Their succession planning is great. But once Modric and Kroos go, I can see them having trouble even with all the talent they are going to hoard.
  8. There are reports Madrid are sending scouts to watch Florian Wirtz regularly
  9. Normally, I'd say no to another teenager but if they're the level of Paez and Estevao - they are worth a punt.
  10. Draw vs Villa, wins vs Spurs and West Ham when they're in horror form. I wish he piped down and continued to solve the problems he has created.
  11. Sterling won't drop his wages for Palace to be able to sign him. This source - tbrfootball - needs to be junked
  12. Crazy overload. Palmer, Noni in the first team, Angelo, Omari on loan, Kendry Paez and Estevao (?) coming in 2025.
  13. Is there an upgrade in the market ? Ramsdale is available but I’d hold off on making a move
  14. So is Kendry Paez, another wonderkid they’ve signed. They’re obsessed with finding the next breakout wonderkid
  15. Is he on the level of Endrick? who's already scoring goals for Brazil Report says Madrid were interested in Estevao too but there's an issue between club chief scout and player's agent.
  16. I think couple of sales and we're set. Club has already lined up Hall and Maatsen. If Saudis take Sterling (who has a v high wages) and Lukaku, then we'll be able to easily afford the spending we are looking to do - ST, LB and CB.
  17. I think no LW. Roll with Mudryk, Nkunku, Jackson. Break the bank for a proven forward
  18. Yeah, even the ball-winning mid needs to be able to break the lines, progress the ball. I don't think Caicedo is out of his depth and I think he can contribute. Anyway we are locked in with him for 8 years.
  19. Midfield unit looks stronger because of Cucurella tweak. No longer leaving <many> empty spaces to attack at least. Long way to go but last few weeks have been something (except for the Arsenal game)
  20. Miguel Gutierrez might not be an option since Real have an option to sign him for 9m in 2024 and 2025. I fear Grimaldo, Dimarco will be tough pulls given they have long contracts and are settled in league winning squads. Theo is an option. Contract is running out in 26. I'd love a move to sign him. Even with the worries about his pace, he is a baller. Also, how good is Milos Kerkez? I saw stories saying Boehly-co's data team like him.
