It’s more than decent, it’s exceptional. Signed on a free, was utterly atrocious as a footballer, could sell for €15m profit.

That deserves a round of applause.

Let's not applaud yet.

Could still easily end up going the 'Bakayoko' route that Monaco just chooses not to play him in order to avoid the purchase obligation.

But at least that's one less deadwood to clear out for now.

Interesting, Sky Germany report such a low figure.

The original sky sport are quoting 25.3m pounds (30m euros) + add ons. Sounds more authentic.

"New Chelsea owner Tod Boehly personally called Frenkie de Jong several days ago. The Dutchman listened and reiterated his desire to fulfill his contract with Barça. Despite the no, Chelsea keep trying."

I don't get why both United and Chelsea seem so insistent on going after this guy when it's always been clear his heart is in Barcelona and he's desperate to stay there even though they continue to treat him like shit.

We saw first hand how quickly it turned sour with Lukaku who hadn't wanted to leave Inter in the first place so do we really want to see if we can make it happen again with another player who's reluctant to sign? Frenkie might be a lot more talented as a footballer than Lukaku but if the attitude is not right to begin with he will never reach his best level and even some minor setbacks can quickly snowball into a big problem.

That entire tweet sounds like BS

I don't buy for one second that Lukaku didn't want to leave Inter, he was happy as larry in his early games and interviews. This shit with him started when he realized he had a fight on for his place instead of having it handed to him.

As soon as he's dropped for Dzeko (Inzaghi's style is possession based so he won't last the season as a starter) his "love" for Inter will disappear into the night aswell.

Frenkie has Stockholm syndrome.

Either that or his GF has told him she'll dump his ass if they have to move away from Barcelona. Those really are the only explanations that make any sense. 😂

edit: @ZAPHOD2319 beat me to it.

Makes no sense to pay 85m on CB to play in a system that overlay protects them. If Tuchel going to play with 5 defenders and 2 DMs, seems very pointless.  

In the Everton game we were so high up at times one ball over the top had Gray on a dangerous 1 vs 1 with Silva.

There's a difference between being defensive and defending well.

Yup. If we continue with this heavily defensive setups even sub-world class defenders should be fine. They need however be really quick, able to carry the ball, calmunder pressure and make no stupid mistakes. For attackers however we nee dplayers who are used to playing in defensive setups and creating tings on thier own. This is why Sterling and Kai (will) struggle and guys like Chiesa and Neto are on our radar.
