still a upgrade to our attack

if we sell ziyech and get sterling, I think is a great upgrade

Yes, he's way more consistent than any attacker we have right now.

The only consideration is can he make it work in the black hole that is a Chelsea attack? He thrived in Liverpool and City sides that had a very attacking style and tons of forward players.

we started signing players (and managers in Rafa's case) who would have worked/did work well with the prime version to try and coax something resembling form from him [Torres].

I always scoffed at the idea that Rafa's working relationship with Nando was a factor in his appointment as temporary manager. Before the end of their time together at Liverpool Benitez had seen through the number 9. We didn't appoint a man with a magic Torres wand, we appointed a manager who knew the truth that Fernando was then, and always had been, an ordinary footballer.

we need sterling but we also need dembele and sell ziyech and possible pulisic

puli & ziyech - > sterling & dembele 

clear upgrade

lets see.... but its almost impossible to happen the two business

Now I’m seeing 50m or more for Sterling. Hmmm, not crazy about him for that price. 

That's City's asking price. The numbers quoted by Di Marzio (35m pounds) is a market realistic deal for Sterling.

Torres had a horrible attitude and it reflected on the pitch with his body language. 
 

Thank god RDM had the balls to drop him from the first five penalty takers or we would’ve lost in Munich. 

Would have been interesting to know where he placed on the penalty taker list because in an interview after the game Cahill said he was sixth.

Reports from France suggesting we're in for Jonathan Clauss from Lens for around £8.5m.

Why are people saying to sell Puli? He's still yet to enter his prime, he has good marketability and the owners are never going to sell the best yank in the world. If Liverpool bought him to replace mane, klopp would turn him into a world beater. 

The same donkeys that wanted to give lukaku a 'chance' are the same donkeys saying sell sell sell. Its sad that the fanbase has no support for developing players and only want to buy worldbeaters like donkeyaku. We bough Hazard and developed him(although I will concede Puli will most likely never be on his level.)

ffs, silly season is in full effect

he is a right footer RB, 1.78m

the bloke turns 30yo in 3 months (we all know what happens to fullbacks once they go past 30yo)

and has only played two topflight seasons in his career (the last 2, for Lens)

We’re already playing with a false 9 with Kai. Playing Sterling there makes no sense and he’d be mauled by packed defenses every week. 

[whats happening 1,538]

so sterling at f9 and havertz as a winger. makes sense

Is he any good?

I won't lie the only thing I know about him is from playing Fifa he's had a lot of performance based cards this season which would suggest he's been playing well.

Agree with the fullback past 30 thing, you can't really argue with it although from what is looks like he is a late bloomer and doesn't have much mileage in his legs.

£8.5m is barely anything in this day and age. If he was deemed a very good squad option to back James up then cool but I can't pass judgement having not watched him.

Ahh a fellow Ultimate Team player! It's funny because as soon as I saw his name mentioned on here, I thought to myself... well his TOTS is pretty decent.

Yep, I might be starting to feel old at 35 but my Playstation is probably one of the only reasons I've not gone completely grey yet!

I know exactly how you feel, at 33 I question my maturity daily but not enough to stop 😄
