If they get him, Casemiro and Tcho would give so much protection that they would be able to play 424 with Vini, Haaland (if they get him), Benzema and Mbappe up front.

Plus they have Camavinga, Modric still top class, Valverde, Kroos...

Tchouameni will be Casemiro replacement.

Always felt our communication and relationship with Monaco, particularly with Tchou, had us as clear favorites. 

 

[Vesper 27,347]

IF Aurélien Tchouaméni is really off the table and Real bound, then there are very few truly great, already proven DMF options left

 
Declan Rice (soooo expensive though)
Wilfred Ndidi (not sold on him, never have been really TBH)
Kalvin Phillips
Rúben Neves  (if no Rice, he would be a great pickup)
Douglas Luiz  
Boubacar Kamara (can play CB as well) 
Mohamed Camara  
Julian Weigl (last year on my lists, he is soon 27, and by summer 2023, you are only talking 2 sub 30yo years left out of him, he is not the type that will age well IMHO, and most DMF's do not anyway, unless they are deep lying play maker)

then youth

 

 

Danilo

Lucas Gourna-Douath 

Khéphren Thuram 

Amadou Onana (HUGE, 1.95m)

Samuele Ricci

Need more fast paced wingers if we get rid of Timo. 

CHO, Puli are not enough. Get Dembele and two more barn burners to exploit defenses. These rapid guys are ones that can play quick passes too and help breakdown defenses that sit back as well.

Marca claiming done deal 😑

Buying Lukaku last summer instead of Tchou when we had the chance looking stupider and stupider.

Tuchel wanted a striker and he was good with that. 

So the whole club made a stupid decision. And Tuchel to accept his mistake and try to get rid of ASAP Lukaku this summer. Not do another Torres and keep him to try to make it work....

The club and Tuchel prioritised a ST over a CM we desperately needed. 

I suppose they tried to fix that with Saul, but doubt they would've predicted he'd fallen this far off a cliff.

Raphinha is the only winger I want. F*ck getting another player that looks great aboard then finds the PL too much. Only exceptions are player that are truly elite like Mbappe or absolute work horses like Chiesa (before the injury.)

seeing as Chiesa is out with a horrid Cruciate Ligament Rupture injury

I would say the only 3 options are (unless you add in an extreme wild card on a free, Ousmane Dembélé)

Raphinha (who just got Covid, for what its worth, he missed that crazy Leeds win tonight)

and then 2 others whom you might say fall into your 'looks great aboard then finds the PL too much' positing

 

 

although there possibly is a another EPL proven option:

finally

maybe your could toss in Watford's Ismaïla Sarr

Chelsea star Antonio Rudiger agrees four-year contract with Juventus

https://metro.co.uk/2022/03/19/Chelsea-star-antonio-rudiger-agrees-four-year-contract-with-juventus-16305094/

Antonio Rudiger will leave Chelsea in the summer and the Germany international has already agreed a four-year contract with Juventus.

Having been deemed almost surplus to requirements by Frank Lampard, Rudiger has been the main benificiary of Chelsea’s decision to replace the club legend with Thomas Tuchel.

The 29-year-old has emerged as the defensive cornerstone of his compatriot’s side and is a popular, authoritative figure in the dressing room.

[Vesper 27,347]

we are in deep shit

two of our best 3 CB's leaving, and the other will be 38yo a few weeks into the season

stuck with that rotter Lukaku, Manure will come HARD for Tuchel in the summer

all our dregs unsaleable or damn near so

Chiesa out for months with a dreadful knee injury, so he is off the board

same for Leonardo Spinazzola  

Kounde is NOT good enough and his height is a huge issue

 

[Vesper 27,347]

No way De Ligt leaves now

he has been whingeing on for ages for help, as all they other CB's are ancient or shit

now he has a WC beast warrior inbound

I don't trust anyone anymore

Goal is hardly some gold standard

so I think it is quite possible he did agree
