Emi Martinez is a wonderful shithouse. Villa are looking to sell him too for PSR reasons Not sure about his ball playing but I'd take him for a cheap fee and give Penders a good loan and ready him for a future transition.

Just an unfamiliar source : Christian Martin from DSports.

There's a better chance of dislodging an aging Kane than there is of jumping ahead of Delap and Jackson who are a similar age profile.

Agree. Players will only lose value if they are on the fringes/loan-loop.

Xavi/ Eze/ Morgan Rogers for ~£70m >>> Gittens for £55m If we wanted a youngster, why not Malick Fofana in a cut-price deal when Lyon have financial problems? The board is getting another summer wrong after a promising start.

That's a shame. The only explanation why we haven't even considered Eze could be they see him as a central player and we do have Enzo + Palmer there.

Seriously hope this is true because we will need an attacking signing that takes the burden off Palmer or we will regret it within the first few weeks of the season

Arsenal signing Zubimendi, Norgaard and now bid for Mosquera Strange that they've cooled interest in both Sesko and Gyokeres.

Fofana could go for 15m euros, says Hugo guillemet from L'equipe

I wouldn't say it is a priority and think bringing Veiga into the fold is a solid idea. He seemed like a well built defender + composed on the ball. A right-sided CB signing + Colwill/Veiga at LCB with Veiga providing cover for LB sounds good to me.

In a world where PSG signed Kvicha for £59m and Doue for £42m, we are looking to pay £55m for Jamie Gittens and are interested in Garnacho who is going to cost more.

I would take a discount Malick Fofana over a big investment on Gittens. Save the big money for a player that is irresistible - Rogers, Xavi Simons, Barcola

Easier route than topping the group and facing Bayern and then PSG. For sure

Benfica are leading Bayern

We know Maresca has very little power, if any. It is a call made by BlueCo

That's a bad trade for Chelsea. Andrey Santos is high on lot of Europe-wide midfield metrics

Kudus and Eze don't play left a lot. Barcola is not for sale. We do have better bets we could make than Garnacho or Gittens though. Don't know why the club has narrowed down to these two

This will be a lucky break if true. Should take any decent offer we can and replace him with a RB comfortable inverting

They have Saka and Nwaneri for the right wing. Wonder why they are interested in a left footed right winger who skips down the byline? I'd keep Noni in any case and add a left winger

I'd say Cucurella too - and he worked out.

Another 20 year old. Another project signing. Better avoid.

We have signed big names on the downhill - Koulibaly, Sterling, Auba, Felix, Sancho We have not signed big names that are in the 21-26 age group where they've had serious experience and have shown quality over a fairly large sample size. Caicedo, Enzo in 2023 was the only time they've done this.

Nkunku didn't fit in our system. Why do we need a replacement for him?

It won't get us close Liverpool and City are spending serious money. Arsenal are getting into the market too. Anyone who thinks that the league will be at the same level as last year is not reading the room. Seriously worried about our summer business if Delap is going to be one of the major signings.
