Olise is interesting, like a middle ground between Cherki and Kudus, has the defensive side covered well (like Kudus) and puts out serious assist numbers (like Cherki) but suffers from the same lack of goal scoring as Cherki. Would take Kudus if it is between the two of them, but definitely either over Cherki. He’s also a set piece specialist which we are currently lacking.

If we get both surely someone is going out on loan (Angelo?) and someone is up for a last minute sale, maybe Sterling if Poch is contemplating a Mudryk/Maatsen LW?

Chelsea head of recruitment Joe Shields most famous projects : • Jadon Sancho • Michael Olise • Romeo Lavia via @TheAthleticUK

 

Shields moved for Armel Bella-Kotchap from Bochum and he made his Germany debut - this is regarded as a mark of his suitability for the role by Chelsea.

Roy Hodgson expects injured Michael Olise to miss the start of the new season.

The young star suffered a tear to his hamstring while playing for France at last month’s Under-21s Euros, and has since undergone surgery.

It’s a blow for both player and club, with Olise’s best football last season coming once Hodgson returned caretaker manager for Crystal Palace’s final ten games of the season.

“We’ve known since the injury that it’s going to take a while for him to get fit again”, Hodgson revealed. “It was a serious injury which required an operation. He’s well into his rehabilitation but it’s going to take a bit longer for him to recover.

“At the moment we’re just hoping that the rehabilitation will go well and that we get him back as quickly as possible. But we certainly we won’t be seeing him for a period of time.”

Just watched Olise’s season highlights. Idk, I just wasn’t that impressed. Seems like a solid player but nothing that screams “special” to my eyes. Got a wand of a left foot on corners and set pieces but his general play looks like it would be totally redundant for our team since it’s so similar to Madueke’s. But whereas Madueke’s first instinct seems to be to cut inside and shoot, Olise’s is to cross it Ziyech style.

Even aside from his long term injury I don’t get it.

Don't want him. Don't get me wrong, he is absolutely quality but as an individual and team player he leaves a lot to be desired. If we're going with a super young side, we cannot afford to have such a prima Donna with such social catche. 

Additionally, not going to happen. He is set at PSG this season. £100m for riding the bench then probably get another £100m signing on fee at Real next Summer. No need to even go to Saudi. 

PSG bosses made him a prima donna by offering him so much power and those absurd wages not to go to RM. Cant blame Mbappe.

This is our realistic squad list for the next season atm:

  • 3 GK - doesnt matter who
  • Badiashile
  • Colwill
  • Chalobah
  • Silva
  • Chilwell
  • Cucurella
  • Maatsen
  • Hall
  • James
  • Gusto
  • Enzo
  • Santos
  • Gallagher
  • Chukwu
  • Casadei
  • Sterling
  • Mudryk
  • Moreira
  • Madueke
  • Angelo
  • Nkunku
  • Jackson
  • Broja

That makes 26 players. 

Poch said that he doesnt want to work with more than 23/24 players this season. So our squad is already a bit blown and there are talks of additions (Caicedo, and the attacking trio).

Who would u (realistically - so dont mention Cucu or Sterling, noone will buy them) sell, loan and sign to make it the 23 man squad?

For me: 

  • Loan: Hall, Chukwu, Casadei, Moreira
  • Sell: Gallagher
  • Buy: Caicedo, Kudus

That makes 23

Edit: maybe buy another CM or keep Casadei

Saudi would immediately jump to buy Sterling if he was transfer listed, I'm not even worried if we want to get rid of him but seems like Poch rates him.

Sterling wouldnt go there, stop dreaming.

Yeah, Olise seems like the sort of signing we’d have made in the mad dash last summer when were headless chickens signings players regardless of need or fit.

Hope it isn’t true. Kudus and Cherki are sensible. Buying Olise who we don’t need AND who is currently injured with one of the worst injuries a footballer can have for tens of millions is silly.  Hamstring injuries are constantly reoccurring ones as we’ve experienced firsthand with Reece.
