Duppy Conqueror 1,533 Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 (edited) Ake link depresses me.not because of his own skill or ego etc..but unlike Gvardiol,de Ligt,KK,Bastoni etc..he would almost certainly block Colwill’ path to the first team.others could for a season but then can move inside to take over from Silva.Ake is LCB that can be deputy at LB/LWB so far more harmful to Colwill. You could argue that Ake be better for this upcoming season but after that you left with an expensive back up or lose a very longterm solution at LCB whose english as we did with Guehi and/Tomori .

Mário César 1,252 Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 so.... chilwell (ake/emerson) thiago silva, ake, de ligt, colwill reece (azpi) is this our plan? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Duppy Conqueror 1,533 Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 Hope we get de Ligt and Sterling in.those are the two that tick all the boxes really. Then take a breath and make shrewd moves considering longtern consequences of everyone we may buy.once those two are in the clubhouse we can drop down a level from panic mode.

What depresses me about him is that he is barely adequate, will turn 28 during the season and costs 45m ppl are acting if he is an Allrounder. he is just equally bad at lb and dm. If we play him at lb it will be like watching azpi there. Pep said so himself, he can’t overlap. We need our fullbacks to overlap. So fkin stay the hell clear.

Alabama 1,992 Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 That's why it's very harmful giving Tuchel full control of transfer activities.... This is typical Tuchel signing...very underwhelming transfer...Rogmanoli is free...can't we atleast try to get him on board... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although he does have some position flexibility i’d say only LCB is he any good at but just having some level of skill at others can see someone getting a matchday squad place ahead of better players.

No, Tomori benched him at Milan that should tell you his current performances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think he’s having full control but certainly for this window only he will have as close as he will get to it.what’s the alternative to it tho.What we had in recent years was worse and anyone new coming in needs a few months to really set up who we need. I’d say head coach/manager should be able to veto moves but not be the only one making decisions,a partnership. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How do you eveb know what a typical Tuchel signing is. We have just been told Marina brought in who she wanted, stop making statements about an area you know nothing about. You have 2 options here 1. Keep talking shite you have no idea about. 2. Shut up and trust the manager in charge Tuchel is a brilliant manager, its time to let him show it. If 2 isn't an option for you the you already on the Tuchel out wagon, FACT You moan about ake, yet put forward a player thats been benched by another player ppl moaned about.

chelsea_4_eva 1,182 Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 I would also want more upfront if I was selling to Barca, a club that still owes around 42M of unpaid salary to one of their players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superblue 6,372 Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 20 minutes ago, Blues Forever said: And this is exactly why a lot of the transfer news needs to be taken with a pinch of salt until something is officially confirmed. Barcelona could very well reach an agreement with Leeds and if they do, it's pretty obvious he'll go there. But the Spanish and Barca media are doing what they and Madrid always do - try to bully and pressurise situations to their advantage. Whilst we hold firm with our bid it gives Leeds leverage to hold out on Barca. I know he only has 2 years left on his deal but I think in Leeds situation it's a different situation to view. He's their best player and it's more valuable for Leeds to stay in the league so even if they sold him next summer they'd still look to command £30-40m anyway. Another year helping to establish the club in the Prem could easily be more valuable than the £20-30m they might lose from his transfer value.

Blue Armour 4,439 Posted July 2, 2022 Share Posted July 2, 2022 2 weeks till preseason. Hoping at least one of DeLigt or Skriniar can be confirmed as a CB before that so that they get enough time to fully integrate with the team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
