Not bothered about the loan fee, if we get 12m and he does well, it will make him easier to sell, because he sure as shit isn’t going to get much game time here 

Don’t think he’d struggle that much for playing time if Maresca is going to play 2 strikers frequently.

This...

State of comments here is unbelievable 

What’s unbelievable is how this new ownership has successfully managed to lower the majority of the fanbases expectations and general standards. 
 

I, along with the minority are trying to stay as positive as possible and look at things objectively. I don’t think our squad is horrible and we do have some terrific players but and there is a huge but.. there have been and will still be incredibly frustrating stunts being pulled by the board in the transfer market. I think what makes things worse is the blatant PR being fed to us through Fabrizio and others about us looking to buy really exciting talent like Olise, Raphiniha, Kounde, Lopez, Osimhen, Maignan and soo many more only to end up with such lesser tried and trusted players. Some have worked out but many haven’t. The utter disrespect that is show to this fanbase who should demand more. It’s not wrong to demand more you know!! Roman gave us that .. he gave is the right to demand success. Many have forgotten that.

Chelsea are considering to activate a €40m release clause for Roger Fernandes of Braga. The 19 year old winger would then join Strasbourg.

I'm going to agree with any attempt to sign Rogers and I'm going to talk about the importance of the squad team this season. I've said all of this before so anyone who has read what I have to say about it before won't miss anything if they dip out here.

I see 8 as Rogers optimum position and, given any encouragement by Villa, would certainly attempt to add him to the squad. If signed I would then prefer him over Enzo. For me he matches Enzo's physical attributes and betters our vice captain's technical skills. Even given that Enzo outscored Rogers last season I believe Rogers improves us immediately.

Starting with the game at Lincoln, Enso will obviously hope to use the squad team for appropriate domestic cup matches. Beyond that it would make a massive contribution if he can use them against 'pot 4' CL opponents and even, crucially, in some Pl games either side of big CL fixtures. It's been a key help to Pep over the years that he could rotate heavily and still pile up PL points. If we can give Enso that luxury it will be an important step.

Why you call footballer Enzo and manager EnSo? 

Also, we play 4231. There is no number 8 in that formation. There are hybrid types when in possession one midfield goes up but do we think Rogers can play double pivot? Here he'd definitely be number 10.

Yes of course

But on the flip side they have managed to assemble an exciting attacking side...

Personally I don't care about which transfer succeed or not as far as attacking options is concerned....am much concerned about our central defence and the goalkeeper.....

The fact that a GK or CB hasn’t even been talked about is insanity and shows they don’t really care about challenging at the top.

Nahhh I dont think its their aim.

I think be same as last year. Hopefully bit less intense but still top 4 not close to the top and maybe a semi final or two..

I understand why people always compare to Roman era, and Roman signed so fucking class talent let’s get it right, but he also signed some fucking absolute dross as well, so far this seems to be the same as of now, the only difference is we are also selling most of the shit we buy for decent money as well, and we have one of the most exciting young sides in the league that will only improve, different ways of doing things and the last 3 years hasn’t helped as far as league position goes, but we are getting there.

Btw, why would Ornstein have dropped that report about us trying for Fermín López if we had no cash? And why haven’t we heard anything about why that move didn’t happen and we instead have to settle for a loan of a Brighton kid?

Last night sources in Spain said Fermin has decided to stay at Barcelona.

Okay fine, but then why not use the €60m it was reportedly going to cost and throw that money at an actual established, quality alternative? How do we go from a really good player from Barca to a kid who Brighton don’t even want?

It’s the equivalent of going to buy a Ferrari, the dealership saying sorry that one’s not for sale, and then going and leasing a Toyota Prius instead. Like wtf is this?

[mkh 760]

Tare on ACMilan deal with #CFC for Christopher Nkunku.

“It was not possible until 3-4 days ago because the costs were completely different, but then we made the most of the situation that Chelsea were dealing with, and did well to conclude an agreement.”

But again, Ornstein said we wanted Fermín who would’ve cost about the same as Xavi supposedly.
