ChelseaFanUK 1,014 Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 I seen someone on twitter claim that Ajax have a supervisory board which could still grant Alvarez his move, they can overrule others. So Im not sure this is totally dead......yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pizy 19,377 Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 So Alvarez off the table, Sangare off the table unless a silly offer comes in, and we aren’t even trying for Douglas Luiz. Reports this morning that Billy G wouldn’t be allowed to leave because of the injury crisis we have in midfield but now reports are that he will actually be allowed to leave even though we haven’t brought a new midfielder in. Are we mental? Sides like Leeds and bloody Southampton ran through our midfield like it wasn’t there. West Ham with Rice, Soucek, etc will probably do the same this weekend in a game we MUST WIN. And yet we aren’t going to sign someone there? Good luck to Tuchel if so…🫣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDA 10,284 Posted September 1, 2022 Share Posted September 1, 2022 Surely the board aren't dumb enough to let Gilmour leave without another midfielder lined up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not once did he reiterate to Boehly his desire to add quality to midfield. Only after the Leeds match. blahblahblah and laura90 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One before the season even started and the other in the second fucking match. Then RLC gets injured at the same time. He (and all of us, let’s be fair) also probably didn’t foresee Gallagher looking like a deer in headlights after his impressive Palace spell. We looked set in midfield for this season with 4 quality options and then RLC as a emergency player. I think the plan was obviously to address the midfield with a dramatic refresh next summer when Kante and Jorgi would be allowed to go. The fact that we didn’t even try for a midfielder all summer proves it. ChrissWTF 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was incredibly apparent that when both of them were not in the lineup, we struggled. Ruben is no where near good enough to play in the pivot at a high level and he too has his injury problems. Jorginho also continues to be an utter liability and it's made more apparent with Kante or Kovacic aren't covering for him. It was incredibly evident we needed another quality midfielder this season. So blatantly obvious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kante has shown to be injury prone since the Lampard era. Kovacic also has a chronic hamstring issue since 2 years ago. Again, it is incredibly naïve to think they would all of a sudden not become injury prone anymore. It's also so blatantly obvious that when one of them aren't on the pitch, we struggle immensely. It's also evident that should be doing better than Jorginho. Look at Saints second goal. Tell me if that would ever happen to Rodri, Fabinho, Bentacur, Casemiro, or Partey?

I only recall Ulyses Davila who was supposed to be the Mexican Messi+Ronaldo. Pulisic got robbed on the street in Mexico City, does that count? 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
