  1. I doubt they will sell him in Jan. But in summer I heard he has this gentlemen’s agreement that the club will not be in his way
  2. True. Sublime diwplay today. On his day he is some player. Shame that is every blue moon
  3. Or eden. Diiferent class today the part i lover most was that by tripped g over his own feet the donkey unsighted the keeper
  4. Palmiero has the advantage that we sign him after his acl injury not before 😅
  5. I do not think he is. Would not make sense for them given they can reregister in for the ko stage. Also does bot matter as lonh as he has not played right?
  6. I think you are right. Sandro's agent also said something along these li(n)es and now runours indicate he wants to leave... The agent will do anything to increase wages and his own provision. If Dzeko himself came out and said he wanted to stay it would be a different story. But even then there is the possibility of a nice wage offer to turn his mind.
  7. The board obviously did not want him and rightly so. Turned out to be an absolute shit show for them. Their fans want him gone
  8. Sandro is not worth 3times as much when numbers suggest he is statistically on par. We are not gonna sign a left back for more than 30m so we should arrange ourselves with that. I would also rather have a fit, inform Alex Telles but if it where this guy and Dzeko i cohld arrangr myself with it. A young player can recover fully from an acl. Rüdiger looks a way more serene, positionally aware and even faster player than before his acl so maybe roma have some real specalists in place.
  9. I flew into holidays 11 days ago and Chelsea has not scored since. I hope we break the duck today otherwise i could not justify flying into the holidays again 😅
  10. There are very good and world class players which might be unattainable in winter, super expensive or ineligible for euro competition hence a bad time for pursuing major targets. Alexis, auba, mkhi and even Sandro and Telles fall i to that category so at a stretch i understand why we are not pursuing them Then there are talents like malcolm, richarlison, bailey and that pellegrini guy who have shown some potential and might be sensible investments with resale value, reasonable january targets. Should be attainable for a club of our stature. Then there are healthy average players who can still do a job. Of those there are tons. And then therr are crooked, washed-up and out of form players like Andy Carroll who are almost useless even when they are not injured and are not even top flight level.
  11. The thing is i could actually see this being a conte buy. He likes big target men and probably is ok with Carroll as we aee not to bid for a competent striker. Still hope a better alternative surfaces.
  12. Ofc we are not gonna sigb him. And tge way he blows hot and cold, being a crying little bitch oon and off the pitch also makes me not want him that much. I think getting our wages policy put off for the 2 or 3 years he can still perform at the top is not worth it.i would mich rather have mahrez or bailey who are both goalscorers too and left footed
  13. If that picture is legit and from now(he looka a bit young on it) it is no coincidence but a come and get me plea Shame our board will not pick it up. Even more so cos he is free to play in the cl.
  14. Please no .he is a good player but average talent.
  15. That was almost 6 years and 11 injuries ago.
  16. I would be all over this but it just does not feel like a chelsea signing...makes too much sense i guess. And as for overrated, sure therr is some hype but most neutral bundesliga pundits deem him the best attacking winger in germany this season. He has brutal pace, is direct, still only 20, can shoot a bit and is left footed so how much overhyped can he be. We have been in need for a left footed attacker for ages now. I am not sure where he would fit in if we were to continue playing 352 (maybe second striker when hazard is injured or move hazard to no 10) which imo we should not anyway. In a 343 or any system with true wingers he could flourish. He can easily start over pedro or willian. I recently read two articles over him in german press. Bayer sporting Director Rudi Völler said at some size a bid will be hard to reject and from context of the interview siggested hat bid would be 50m
  17. Tuchel would be horrible. Not a good defensive coach, not consistent enough in the league and a difficult character who does bot like being restricted by the board. He would not last a full season. I would hope for Conte to at least see out his contract. Simeone and Allegri would both be fine to me. Both have shown that they can get the best out of mediocre talents and washed up players which our squad basically consists of and operate within tight financial restrictions.
  18. I was conpletely blindsided by us signing this guy. Honestly one day i do not check the news and bang we sign someone out of nowhere. But it all makes sense with this theartics in thr summer. He rejected us my ass. We told him tonblownoff the move to save us 20m shrewd business. Especially if Bakayoko had to turned out better or Drinkwater had not been injured we would not have needer Barkley n the first place. Now we know we do and he would have been injured anyway. the more i think about this the more intelligent thos siging becomes. He has great offensive qualities pairee with the size and speed of Bakayoko while bot being a conplete tool at the ball. I do not know how good Ross is defensively but he can barrly have less positional awareness and discipline as Bakayoko so it might be wortg a try to stick him right next to kante in a 343
  19. So have two strikers who are great in the air but cant finish with their feet
  20. Exactly. Moses rarely gets beaten because he is lightning quick and will always recover when someone tries to go past him. I think defensively ge is much better than alonso. Offensively he has less output but both are shit crossers
  21. Yeah all that pace and strength and the control to get himself into that position yet he could not finish his lunch
  22. Omg morata is so horrible. Bring bats on for his trademark late winner
