At least we don’t have Salai, Sallói and Szalai in the team at the same time. Must have been hard time for foreign commentators.

Attila Szalai perhaps the worst defender I ever seen in EUROS.. Chelsea were linked with him few years ago, but he cometely lost the plot recent 2 years, horror shows for his German teams and also Today.

Switzerland outperforming in every single aspect, we look confused AF. Need a big change to turn this around. Fondou is better than goulash molino was a neat move from Swiss supporters 😄

What I like about Noni that he is always tries his best to make waves. Not hiding from the ball or making safety passes, always going forward to shoot. Not an outstanding player and can be quite wasteful, but tcan offer a lot coming from the bench, unless Mudryk.

Interested in Muddy by any chance?

Wesley Fofana - feels like new signing every summer since 2022.

I haven't seen too much from him, but in Strasbourg his role reminded me on what Cancelo did for City in his prime 1-2 seasons: carry the ball from box to box, often coming to middle of the pitch and creating chances. In such system, definetly can work, but requires suitable CM and CB around. Not sure how Maresca's system will be, but Angelo is very gifted, I wouldn't be surprised if we found a way to utilize him.

He played a very interesting RWB/B2B hybrid role in Strasbourg. I understand it's not so fancy on transfermarkt stats but he is indeed a massive talent.

Indeed. But the biggest insult regarding Duran in the last two pages were "noname".

What's the point of this tread then? After confirming a signing, can discuss in players topic. It's ok to discuss possibility of signing players, even if they are not even rumoured or news turn out to be false.

I have only seen Duran a couple of times, seems talented. 8 goals in ~1100 minutes are not bad either for a 20 years old. But.. AV signed him for 15 million last year and he was substitute for Watkins. How did we end up offering 40-50 million for him? How his value got three times as much?

He is going to the Euros due to Frenkie De Jong's injury. Boy has a lot going on recent few months.

Caughtoffside and Fabrizio Romano collaboration.. 🤯 Let's see a video of Kaveh Solhekol drinking ayahuasca tea and talking about his transfer speculations. Geez, I would be hammered if we ended up with Disasi, Adarabioyo, Badiashile and Fofana 😄 Make that ECL exciting.

https://www.chelseafc.com/en/news/article/tosin-adarabioyo-to-join-Chelsea Finally, a smart CB-signing. Has been great for Fulham in the past two seasons, developed at City, perfect age. Worst case scenario a good squad player, but at 26 he can also take a step forward and do a Cahill 🙂 Welcome, welcome

This guy is amazing.. Made a name for himself playing well in Austria at a young age, but he has performed several horror shows for Leipzig and Bayern, not reliable at all. And somehow still made it to Deschamps' squad. Hope we miss out on him, stick with Adarabioyo.

Feel like very random few names from almost 20 years of time.. But generally it's not surprising, big clubs do not really want their top form and age stars go, so they often making bidding wars for the next big things, who often happen to play for "feeder clubs" such as Benfica. More importantly, Willian was signed from Anzhi Makhachkala!

They are also up for Barkley. That will be another challange for my mental health, seeing Barks in the Champions League while we play in Uzbekhistan on Thursday night,

But Real still winning somehow, would be typical.

But that's the point.. Cucu and Chilwell would be also easy to sell if we want to raise funds. However it's intresting you announce it like it was an objective fact, not a speculation.

If we want to sign striker from Leipzig, we should go for Openda. I feel he is much more complex player and higher ceiling.

I don't know, I have felt for years that GK is the last thing we should worry about, profiles and passing abilities don't count as much as it is discussed.. Real Madrid won the league and reached CL-final with their 3rd choice, Liverpool and Manchester City are not worse teams at all with their noname goallies. I firmly believe that we would have been still 6th if we had Oblak or Ederson or whoever.. There are like 50 goallies around who can do the job, we can just go with Petrovic, Sanchez or Kepa. They are not outstanding but not bad either. CB will be needed either way.

If he could play his football with Dewsbery-Hall, Patson Daka and Jannick Vestergaard then he should sort it out with the 40-50 players available in the first team, loan army and development squads. I feel it is a fair expectation from the new manager not wanting to make lots of changes in the squad, recent 1-1.5 years we completely changed the entire group. Get him the players needed? We pretty much have players with any possible profile.. Especially winger, midfielder or left back. I will lose my shit if we have to buy Ndidi because none of our midfielders "fit his football".

Yes please! He is very solid CB, developed by Man City, his best years can still be ahead. Worst case scenario a decent squad player, but can even be much more.

If Frank is appointed, should we expect him wanting to bring some of his faves to our club? I have seen some shit in the past 20 years but not sure if I’m ready for a title fight lead by Wissa and Mbuemo.

First we should find out who will be our manager, don't we? Chillwell, Cucurella and Maatsen are very different type of left backs, and we can make income on the other two too. Also, if Kompany joins Bayern - where Fonzie is likely to leave - it can be obvious choice aswell.
