DDA 9,937 Posted December 17, 2022 Share Posted December 17, 2022 Think I may be one on my own here but I really wouldn't mind seeing the Mexican fella Alverez come here to play DM in Jan. He isn't a flahsy player but definitely something we have been missing for quite some time. He has alot of grit and determination and ultimately the defensive nouse to sure up our weak ass midfield.

NikkiCFC 8,317 Posted December 17, 2022 Share Posted December 17, 2022 Welcome Nkunku. Tremendous player last season and a half. Last season 35g and 20a. This season already 17 goals in just 3 months season so far. Clearly playing best as SS just like Werner did but we never gave that position to Timo. Pulisic also much better on the left but here plays mostly on the right. Havertz is best as AM imo but for us he is exclusively number 9. So I'm very sceptical about Nkunku or any other attackers here because of this. We now play with one striker and two wingers so 2 best positions for Nkunku don't exist in our formation. Let's hope from next season we finally play to players strengths. Johnnyeye and Strike 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NikkiCFC 8,317 Posted December 17, 2022 Share Posted December 17, 2022 So basically considering Ziyech and Pulisic are most likely leaving and Sterling is just not good enough no point to play with wingers. We also have no one for RW spot. Playing to players strengths would be to play 4312 with Havertz behind Nkunku and let's say Vlahovic or whoever we sign for CF spot. If we get Leao things would change but let's see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anything he is a fat pig stranded at sea. His ego is precisely the problem because he thinks he's too good for the team when staying at Everton would've probably been the best career move of his entire life. De bruyne played with the likes of Claudio bravo and otamendi and salah plays week in week out with Hendo shouting at him. They never say a word and are only concerned with their football. That is what makes them so world class. Ronaldo and messi played with shit players, it's mot an excuse because it's a team game. Big fish own the pond. Donkeyaku was never a big fish. I was referring to his time at Anderlecht. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope Tottenham overpays for him. I would prefer we sign someone relatively unknown as Caicedo and Lavia will cost 50m+ each. PL tax is getting worse by the season. Locatelli looked good when Italy won euros albeit a bit slow for PL. You were right when we missed out on tchoumeni, we will regret that for years to come. Camavinga as well, but we can't compete with Real especially atm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vesper 30,163 Posted December 17, 2022 Share Posted December 17, 2022 Agent says 19-year-old may join Chelsea after failed summer move https://www.thechelseachronicle.com/transfer-news/agent-says-19-year-old-may-join-Chelsea-after-failed-summer-move/ Pavel Andreev, the agent of Dynamo Moscow midfielder Arsen Zakharyan, has claimed that his client may still join Chelsea despite a collapsed possible move last summer. As previously reported by Fabrizio Romano, the Blues were very close to signing the 19-year-old in the summer transfer window. The Italian journalist claimed that Zakharyan had even agreed to move to Stamford Bridge on personal terms, although Chelsea and Dynamo failed to make a deal in the end. The Russia international himself did not hide his desire to make the move. A month ago, he admitted that the negotiations between the two clubs would continue over the winter, and they would “lead to something”. More recently, his agent Andreev also indicated that a January move could be on the cards. “There remains a possibility of a transfer of Arsen Zakharyan to Chelsea,” the agent said this week (via sports.ru). Zakharyan is a versatile midfielder who can also operate in the front three positions. He has two goals and five assists from 16 appearances in the Russian Premier League this season, mostly playing as a centre midfielder. The Dynamo academy graduate is under contract with the club until 2024. It remains unclear whether Chelsea would make a move for a new midfielder in January, considering they still have the likes of Carney Chukwuemeka and Cesare Casadei as young back-up options. However, an earlier report from journalist Dean Jones suggested that Chelsea chairman and co-owner Todd Boehly considers Zakharyan as a “special” talent.

Tomo 21,751 Posted December 17, 2022 Author Share Posted December 17, 2022 (edited) 19 hours ago, LAM09 said: Neither did Salah or De Bruyne. This narrative of players not delivering for us really needs to stop at this point, as none of them were giving a fair crack of the whip. I think what @OhForAGreavsieis saying is Lukaku wouldn't have suddenly developed what he didn't have if he played a few more games. He's got the exact same flaws now he did when he was "only 21" (the constant line thrown at me when I said he wasn't good enough back then). Lukaku's transfer (to Everton) basically funding most of Diego Costa's fee has to be up there with the best business we've ever done.

Vesper 30,163 Posted December 17, 2022 Share Posted December 17, 2022 bin this steaming turd, one of my least favourite Chels players in the past 10 years my heart sunk every time he came on the pitch for us, Tuchel really pissed me off with his continued playing of him https://www.thechelseachronicle.com/loan-watch/agent-says-23-year-old-Chelsea-player-not-happy-with-situation-at-loan-club/ Agent says 23-year-old Chelsea player not happy with situation at loan club Chelsea loanee Malang Sarr could end his loan spell at AS Monaco earlier amid interest from Serie A clubs, according to his agent Federico Pastorello. The 23-year-old joined Monaco on a season-long loan deal at the start of the season after playing a very limited role in his first season under Thomas Tuchel in 2021/22. So far, however, Sarr has only made six appearances (three starts) for Monaco in Ligue 1, with fellow young defenders; Axel Disasi and Benoit Badiashile, ahead of him in the pecking order. According to his agent, Pastorello, the former Nice centre-back could leave Monaco to play in Italy. Johnnyeye and Hashishi 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
