RuudiGullit 112 Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 Our transfer window continues to be a laughing stock. We're just going to have to accept the fact that Roman doesn't have as much money to throw around on transfers as he did in the past. With the strength of our youth team over the last 3 years and all the players we have on loan, you'll think we'll at least have produced our own defenders for the 1st team by no It's very possible we end up with no defenders or with an overpriced average one that is no better than what we already have. Either way, we're fucked. Let's not forget that once upon a time, we had Filipe Luis and we just loaned Rahman. Christensen is also on loan. I've been saying this aswell. Only 6 days left and there is still no new defender, left-back whatever we need to strengthen the defence line. It's a disgrace. We all know we need fresh blood on almost all positions, mostly our defence. The club had a whole year to sort it out.That a club like Chelsea still haven't sorted this out is is an utter disgrace and embarrassing. My deepest respect for people who don't mind about this. They might've forgotten that we ended 10th last season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Have you also read his opinions about Ramires, and Mike being world class?. Or the constant disregard for the facts that contest his opinions? It's just one guys opinion..not so bright one at that. You're not Droy in disguise by any chance, are you? Me, Droy in disguise? Read my opinions about Mikel. ? Having said that, assuming no further squad changes by the time the window closes, I expect Mikael will work his way back into the lineup. Matic is a problem. A problem made larger by the apparent promises Antonio has made to him. Still promises, or no promises Mikel will see game time. There is no doubt we need to upgrade our defenders but if it is a choice between new defenders and new CMs, I go for new CMs. Better central midfielders will improve our team and our defence. Better defenders will still find themselves exposed and coming under constant pressure because of our front six.of course improving both is the best answer along with new AM thrown in there as well.

Werent we willing to pay nearly €150mil for lukaku and koulibaly ? Lack of money doesnt seem to be the problem to me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's too big 625 Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 Wtf is that? About 20 mins between tweets and one claiming Milan are saying no, and the other saying they're debating it. This debacle is ridiculous because no one knows what is going on by the sounds of things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bababoom 4,478 Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 Not worried, we'll definitely bring a CB in, most likely Maksimovic. According to many people who watch Serie A week in week out they say he's been great for a few years now and for this season will be the smarter buy, mainly because we need someone to come in straight away and dramatically improve our defence. Ramagnoli is a great prospect, he's been performing at a good level and for a 21 year old thats impressive but we'll mostly be buying him for his potential and in all honesty we have Zouma and Christensen for that, Marksimovic is still young (24) but is already playing at a much higher level, not to mention he'll be much easier to sign.

Would love Maksimovic at this point but even he may be impossible if Napoli speed things along and sign him. We'll be left pissing in the wind. Or with our 6th choice CB target that's no better than Cahill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's too big 625 Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 Conte will have provided the board a list of options I am sure of that. Koulibaly being no.1, maybe Romagnoli no.2, so now we go after option 3 or 4, whomever they may be. Everyone has got a price, and I am confident Roman will pay the price needed in the end to bring in Conte's targets. Also, who knows, the "lesser" option/s could turn out to be the better options for us. Just because the likes of Koulibaly and Romagnoli are hyped, doesn't mean they're any better than other potential signings at cb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now we are already on nearing the end of August, still without any defensive signings what so ever...fucking madness. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
