MoroccanBlue 5,381 Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 Just now, Pizy said: So Sterling isn’t actually done yet then… 😒 Course not. Boehly is literally doing everything which again begs the question why Marina wasn't let go after the window. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually really like Guehi potential, the complete package. Very good with the ball at his foot too. England international and just turning 22 later this month. Linked with Spurs this summer, he will go for insane fee no doubt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never understood that clause, what does that even mean? Ultimately players preference would easily override such clauses. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superblue 6,372 Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 My thoughts on the potential Ake deal are that I think on paper it looks an underwhelming signing. However, I am willing to give him a chance and not jump to conclusions first. He's not let City down at all in the games he's played, the question now is can he take that and apply it consistently across a season. He's the sort of signing I want to see the club be able to move away from in time, i.e. an expensive squad fill. I understand firstly that will take time, and secondly the situation is a little different this summer given our defensive options. What Ake I think can and should bring as a minimum is a solid player, and one that should be good enough to maintain us where we are currently which is ensuring we get into top 4. We don't know if Colwill can do that yet, and I think we're all pretty sure Sarr can't. In the longer term if Colwill was to step up over the course of the next year or two, or another defensive option came up on the market next summer or beyond, then Ake becomes a solid squad player like the one he is and has proved he can be at City.

Pizy 18,903 Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 Aké in a back 3 with a marquee CB brought in on the right side? 👍🏼 Aké in a back 4 as the only CB we bring in? 👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼 But surely Aké would only fancy returning here to Chelsea if Tuchel has assured him of a prominent role? He’s not going to hop from one bench to another. Which to me means that he has been sold on becoming our starting left sided CB in a back 3.

chelsea_4_eva 1,182 Posted July 8, 2022 Share Posted July 8, 2022 I think the price tag is what put most people off with Ake. £45M is just too much. I even think £40M is pushing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ultimately players preference would easily override such clauses. Basically Palace must inform us for any other bids in the future for Guehi and give us a chance to match the bids.
