Well, these kind of sources also told us that we are actually offering more money for Enzo than his release clause. Turns out, was never the case. So we should not believe everything we see on twitter. 

Could also be a Shakhtar story to set Arsenal under pressure. 

What do you think now ?

Yes, way this window is going mate Enzo might be here aswell

Doubtful. If Mudryk comes we have to sell/unregister players for PL squad now. So unless we sell we wont be buying anyone else likely unless their u21s but very doubtful.

mudryk is a great talent, hoping he keep the expectations on him!
I see several not happy or dubits on the forum! IMO maybe some millions too expensive but this is the price in the current football! I prefer put money on him or felix, young with probably some problems but that have great skills and techniche for sure instead of waste money in player who got only some god stats o played a season in one team where all go right for one season! I talk about player like: lukaku, drinkwater, bakayoko and others like ziyech,  koulibay, sterling, pulisic!

A couple of millions is a nice way of saying 50m. We are massively overpaying here similar to how we did on Cucu or Kepa. Not that he is that bad but the mere difference between fair market value and transfer price.

From his highlight reels he looks like a lightning quick dribbler with a bag full of tricks and that explosive burst of acceleration with a decent shot but his passing is just terribly inconsistent. Also I can not see him working without that overlap on the left so Cucu or Hall need to step it up.

So this "building  house from the roof "" approach from the previous regime I hated, is part of the new regime DNA I see. I am deeply disappointed and shocked and sad with this signing. Just like I said for Felix the other day, it wont make us climb up on the table without functional central midfield. 

We are stockpiling attackers we are not able to sell, and getting only has beens and injury prones in that midfield. It's sad really. At least I hope when he comes to Stamford Bridge tomorrow, he will be hearing " We will stay up" instead "We are going down" chants despite this absurd transfer policy that is bringing us further down with each passing window/ day.

Mudryk is a great talent. 

He actually drives the ball at players and makes them defend. Same with Nkunku and we saw it with Felix as well. We need a mindset shift, and having players like this come in - set the precedent - will also then filter to the guys who won't be starting. 

I honestly really like the crop of guys we will have upfront for next season (assuming Felix comes as well) - Nkunku, Mudryk, Fofana, Felix, etc. These guys are all lightning quick, but the biggest thing is, they aren't frail. Dynamic players. 

Our biggest issue is still CM and RB. I like the mixture of Hall, Cucu and Chillwell on the left. I think it will be fine and players will find their feet there. 

CMs, RB and a CB for next season - and we're set to compete for top 3-4 again and build towards title contention.

within reason. any attacking players we sign will be a step up from what we have. 

pulisic ziyek Hudson adoi havertz etc are not premier league players. May look good for their country but not 1 is up to the Premier league. 

only my opinion 🤷‍♂️

Does anyone think if we were to move for Felix permanently at the end of the season, Atletico would be receptive to a player or two packaged in?

 

They do have a history of taking our deadwood. And now it seems Simeone is staying so there are definitely some interesting players for him. Especially in attack. Currently they have only 3 forwards in the squad. Morata, Griezmann and Correa. And Simeone usually plays with 2 so they are short.

The dream in all honesty would be to lumber them with Lukaku if that could maybe shave Felix price down.

But in reality, I wonder whether they'd be interested in swapping Havertz and Felix and what sort of price differential each team would have on that.

I would even go as far as giving them Lukaku AND Auba for Felix.

Without ever having watched Mudryk play, it feels a bit scary to spend that much on a guy who played so little pro football, at the age of 22.


Hoping my fears are put to shame, but feels a bit... Scary.
