Assuming that it's true then, even if we don't want to bring Tammy back, I expect we'll try to cash out the option. Maybe by exercising it then selling on at a profit or by allowing Roma to buy it out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DDA 10,233 Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 I'm not getting excited until the deal is done, especially with Barca being in existence.. OK I'm a little excited... OhForAGreavsie, bigbluewillie and Vesper 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbluewillie 1,977 Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 I don't think there's a chance in hell of getting Leao, too many top clubs after him. Nkunku on the other hand I really like hopefully he'll be a proper propect. Vesper 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thor 2,819 Posted September 30, 2022 Share Posted September 30, 2022 Nkunku looks a real real talent. Quick, great shooting both inside and outside the box. Seems to have a good rhythm and understanding of the game. Super impressed by his ability to find a man running through the channels. Would be stoked if we get him. A young, pacey forward who knows how to put the ball in the back of the net. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clockwork 1,794 Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 Not popular opinion, but i do not rate him. Type of player that really looks bang on average if you take away his goals. Vesper, kexik and bigbluewillie 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigbluewillie 1,977 Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 RB Leipzig's 24-year-old France forward Christopher Nkunku has already completed a medical ahead of joining Chelsea for £52m in next summer's transfer window.

Havertz is most likely will leave for Bayern next summer. Signing both Nkunku and Leao are unnecessary to me. What we should be looking are RW, ST, creative CM, and DM.

maxlev 55 Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 Just one creative midfielder with modric or Fabregas qualities changes everything abt this team especially our attack. Looking deeply, that is one of our major problem. Even if we have a DM, if there is no creative and forward minded guy in the midfield we will keep on struggling to create clear cut chances. Jorginho passes mostly in short sideways direction. Kovacic have no clue once he gets near the opponent defence area, only kante tries to put in few good decisions. We really need a top creative midfielder. blues.bridge 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vesper 31,098 Posted October 1, 2022 Share Posted October 1, 2022 I think it will be easier to pull black players from Serie A now that Italy will have a full throat fascist (with nazi elements) party in power the racism there is already bonkers against the players of colour, and will only get worse Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Bild) I don't think we have the full picture about how this medical came about, and what it tells us about the future intentions of the player and the clubs. What I think we can tell however is that a twelve-months old exam isn't going to satisfy the insurers in summer 2023. Another medical would have to be done so I'm not sure what to make of this story. Edit: Unless a deal has actually been completed and all parties have agreed to keep it quiet for whatever reason. Could such a deal get done without leaking? Not sure about that either.

OneMoSalah 9,104 Posted October 2, 2022 Share Posted October 2, 2022 (edited) Skeptical of Nkunku deal, Werner looked a better player in Germany than him for Leipzig and look how that turned out here. Not saying its a given he can’t do well here but lets see what happens. Wouldn’t say he’s sure to hit the ground running like Haaland is. I mean Werner and Sancho are two prime examples that it can be difficult regardless of how well you do at the likes of a Dortmund or Leipzig Edited October 2, 2022 by OneMoSalah Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pizy 19,278 Posted October 2, 2022 Share Posted October 2, 2022 Has Nkunku been good so far this season? I haven’t paid any attention to the Bundesliga. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
