I think only Cardiff was worse. I think that we faced the least corners and conceded the most percentage wise Gesendet von meinem VOG-L29 mit Tapatalk a Colin Wanker team is horrid company to be in Atomiswave 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even in Barca Busquets plays deeper and Arthur started many games with him... So by looking at Jorginho treatment I would not be surprised that something is going on. But Marina will ask for 60m plus for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vesper 30,219 Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 Pau Torres had a very meh game tonight but he had horrid help in the back 4 the very much washed up soon 35yo Raúl Albiol was his CB partner, and was just trash he needs to retire or go cash in in the MLS or in the Middle East, he clearly is done for at top level embarrassing that a club fighting for CL is reduced to starting pure dregs like that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was the same guy who wanted us to buy Higuain, remember. The influence of the manager can't be understated. With rabiot and Khedira, both apparently looking to be sold, may be it's more than a possibility Vesper 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, if there is some sort of £45m+ deal (or decent swap) on the table it would explain why SFL is wrapping him in cotton wool.

Jorginho was a mainstay in the team, now can't buy a minute. Can't be simply a tactical issue. Has to be more than that for sure.

Yeah, and not only that but we really needed him in the second half's against WHU and Watford. Whilst SFL does a few tactical/selection things that really piss me off (Zonal at set pieces, leaving us wide open on the counter and selecting Batsh*t over Giroud for half of the season) I can slightly see the idea behind those (ok maybe not the counter.) However, the thing with Jorgi is just plain crazy. Vesper and Puliiszola 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OneMoSalah 8,886 Posted July 5, 2020 Share Posted July 5, 2020 2 hours ago, NikkiCFC said: Rabiot will go where his mammy wants... But it is most important position in Sarri system. Here he wanted to bring Paredes even with Jorginho. So Arthur deal does not have to mean Jorginho is off. I know but still Paredes was always going to be a backup. Which is different. Plus I think its fair to say Arthur is a better player than Jorginho. Or so I would say. I know there is the fact Arthurs played with Busquets in a more advanced position with Barcelona which is possible but I think Sarri wants him to play at the base of midfield. He is a replacement for Pjanic who played there. Plus they have got plenty of depth in MF and Bentancur is a very exciting prospect who has shown he can compete at the top level so I doubt theyd want to stifle his development.

I wouldn't pay more than 20m + Barkley and that is a generous upper limit This transfer window seems to be opening up more questions than answers regarding the status of our squad next season. I have no idea which of the CBs will stay (on injury record and performances this season, Rudi should be first one out), which LBs would stay (both deserve to get the boot), which of the CAMs, CMs, DMs will stay Shaping up to be one of the most intriguing windows ever. Personally I would get: Ake (sell Rudi) - cover for LB too Rice (sell jorginho) - cover for CB too Havertz (sell Barkley) Tagliafco (sell alonso and emerson) 2020/21 squad: GK: Kepa, Willy LB: Tagliafco, Castillo CB: Ake, Zouma, Tomori, Andreas RB: Azpi, James CM: Kante, Rice, Mount, Havertz, Kovacic, Gilmour FWD: Ziyech, CHO, Puli, Werner, Tammy, Giroud Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one is buying Zappa and Drinky. We will be lucky to find loans with their wages covered. Moses and Batsh*t will also be tough sells with their contact situations.

Zappacaosta and Drinkwater can easily be sold even if it is for minimal amounts, but we all know how good Marina is at getting top dollar for total shite.

What do you mean exactly? They both have only 1 year left on their contracts. Either we sell them now for a fee or we get nothing at all.

If they hold out for this year, then they keep their high wage for this year, then next year when they leave on a free they will probably pick up a higher wage than they would this Summer as they will be signed on a free. Only party who benefits financially at this point is us. Tbf, Batsh*t may agree a move owing to the Euro's. However, apart from that there is no real point from his perspective.
