Even without the ban what difference would it really make?

They need to be productive. If not then whats the point.

Plus, you and I have been begging for Telles for years Cancelo too

So we will put right all the wrongs on the pitch in one window?

I'm a pretty confident person but I also take into account recent history and previous actions

These tend to knock the fuck out of my confidence in them.

Ive been talking about organizing my travels this year so that I miss the closed season. I hate transfer windows at the best of times but this ones going to be very important if we manage to get a stay.

The Hazard CHO issues are crazy complicated

lets say we do not get blocked until January 2020 and it is upheld as a 2 window ban

IF we do not sell Eden and CHO this summer

not only will we lose them on frees

BUT due to delay

we will NOT be able to buy fuckall when they leave in summer 2020

Like I said before, I know him well: played for Gremio in south of Brazil.

I happened to be listening to a sport talk show and they spoke of him last week. He might get a call up for Brazil. Apparently he's a very cool and smart professional on and off the pitch.

The one thing I do remember is that he's on the VERY attacking side of FBs, like a Marcelo type. Which means, if folks are expecting a more traditional FB, he's likely not it.

No what we need is an attacking FB that can actually attack, get a cross in now and then, and not let a turtle make him look slow.

Telles would be perfect.

Our old Filipe Luis would have been good to I reckon. (Who Barca is apparently after as backup at 33)

Yeah, I get that folks here are obsessed with pace.  myself I still prefer players with a lot of technique specially on passing: ball needs to move quick not the player.

I can certainly see folks here having issues with an attacking FB regardless how quick... can almost hear the word "liability" appearing in many posts.

I think Telles and Grimaldo are too lightweight for PL. 

Chilwell, Firpo and Mendy should be our main targets.

Oh yeah Alonso is full of technique! And great passer!

yeah he definitely is. Consider he’s a millionaire LB playing for a top club and, slow as a turtle...  

[Special Juan 28,094]

Monstrous performance from him last night, he was a warrior. I love players like him who never leave anything behind on the field.

[Johnnyeye 7,501]

he would be perfect for our left back position.

[!Hazard! 3,394]

Alex Telles, Tagliafico, Chilwell. I really really hope the club will go all out after these guys and will successfully buy one of them. LB has to be a priority for next season

[Abreu03 292]

RB is much more important than LB.

Azpi is still better than Alonso, but both fullback positions need to be upgraded drastically
