LOL... In what transfer market are Napoli doing business in!?!? Many things have happened when a club buys a player, but a discount must be one of the least likely thing to happen in a transfer

You know, a lot of people with seemingly "ideal" or "perfect" lives battle with stuff like depression.

Thanks for the memories Cesc! Always a fierce competitor. Good to have in the dressing room and someone who has the winning mentality and advice to pass on to the youngsters.

Might be out for a while according to Cudicini

He actually was desperate to come, according to reports. His club didn't want to sell him just for him to become a marketing product.

hahaha

I agree. What I am trying to say is that the system is not the problem in my opinion. We had goalscoring opportunities, and if we had anyone capable of long shots we would have even more.

I have a feeling CHO will start this one!

The question is rather, what if Sarri would have given a "negative opinion" instead of a positive one when the club asked him. If they would have bought him even if Sarri had a negative opinion of him then that would be troubling for the manager, club and the player. I think Sarri likes Pulisic. He has potential to be exactly what we need in this team, at least right now.

Well he kinda just did in his post match press conference. Said that we need a new player in January. "The club knows my position, my opinion...". We should have won this game, and pretty much all the other small games where we have drawed or lost. Had enough opportunities, but for example Hazard wasted a golden chance.

Can we bring on Pulisic?

In his farewell to BvB fans he mentions his excitement on working with Sarri. I do think having Sarri here has much pulling power. His possession based attacking football makes playing for a big club like Chelsea, that win a trophy almost every year, even more attractive.

Am I the only one thinking this was a game that Michy would have done well in? Maybe he can come back from Valencia and do a job for us for the second part of the season.

Second time Willian can't handle a simple touch. For a professional footballer that is a disgrace! KANTEEEEEEE

Well Ampadu is on the bench.

So true! And Sarri will say "Willian can become one of the most important players in Europe". Then come January, he will start playing as his regular self.

If Pedro really injured his hamstring, and Sarri persists with Hazard as the striker, I guess Callum will get to start one or two games I know he also got some pain in his hamstring, but it didn't look as serious as Pedro's. Also, RLC can do a job on the right wing if both Pedro and CHO are injured.

Two years ago I would have bit your hand off for Isco. Today not so much. Has pretty much ruined much of his world beater potential by staying at Real for too long. At least Kovacic had enough and decided he needed to play more, even though he was playing for probably the most prestigious team in the world!

Anyone calling for Sarri's head has to get theirs checked!!!

He was long gone from us anyway. What a shame.

Why? He plays every other match. Played pretty well today and had to go out because of an injury.

Then he would be the player linked with Real right now!

NATO is so not obsolete in this era of hackers hacking NATO nations on the daily.

Billy Gilmour?

I was so excited by the prospect of him coming here I started a new FM save just to put him in the team. So disappointed that he went to Monaco that I can't help being petty over him having a terrible time over there lol
