We'll potentially have an abundance for wingbacks because it doesn't look like we're moving away from three in the back anytime soon. For his system to work offensively you need a creative midfielder to drive the ball forward and a number 9 who can hold the ball and pick out passes. Harry Kane is a prototypical 3-4-2-1 striker but too bad those are rare. Lol I know we all hate him, but Kane would be a monster under the Tuchel system he is the VERY rare CF who can play all over the pitch to great effect he and Son (most underrated WC winger on the planet atm, and for years before, IMHO) are pure weapons, they carried Spuds for years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that happens I’m sure we’d just target the best obtainable manager who knows that system. Pochettino is currently out of work. If the unthinkable happens this year and we have a meltdown Mourinho season I think we’d get him. I think the players we've signed or seem to be signing this summer are tactically flexible and shouldn't have issues adapting to a back 4 if required. Perhaps even more so than the players Tuchel inherited. Koulibaly is more suited to a back 4 than Rudiger was and Cucurella similarly would be more suited than Alonso as examples.

Bellingham is only 15 weeks older and FAR more advanced but yes, the potential to be a good to great player is there Rice and Bellingham are just SO crucial to my long term vision for us Rice should have been here YEARS ago, but Marina and our shit scouts insisted he lacked technical skills, which is madness if you just watch him for a few games, he is a special, special player losing either and the true nightmare, BOTH to other EPL clubs is part of my dystopian outlook should we end up there these are the top valued CMFs and DMFs ( I removed AMF's, so no ex Chels players like De Bruyne and Musiala, no linked AMFs like Nkunku, Bernardo Silva, or Wirtz) on T-Markt (Foden is NOT a CMF, no idea why they list him there) also no current Chels players, so no Mount, Havertz, Kovacic, Kante, Jorginho the ones in bold have been linked to us in the past 3 years Pedri (we were never truly linked, he is so not leaving Barca) Jude Bellingham Declan Rice Rodri Joshua Kimmich Federico Valverde Sergej Milinković-Savić (also an AMF) Nicolò Barella Leon Goretzka Gavi Aurélien Tchouameni Frenkie de Jong Wilfred Ndidi (overrated) Fabinho Eduardo Camavinga Fabián Ruiz (overrated) Youri Tielemans Sandro Tonali Carlos Soler (more of an AMF) Mikel Merino (very underrated) Marcos Llorente nathangeorge99 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean obviously he has not played a lot of PL football and youtube highlights can make players look better than they are, but he looks really talented. A physical specimen, excellent close ball control and ability. Reminds me a lot of a prime Paul Pogba and is very agile and quick on the ball too.

Pogba had elite long shots go along with his technical and physical ability. He is 18, he could easily recoup the transfer fee. I think it is a solid signing anyway.

bigbluewillie 1,930 Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 How depressing. Everton are not interested in re-signing English midfielder Ross Barkley, 28, or Belgium striker Michy Batshuayi, 28, despite being linked with the Chelsea pair.

DDA 9,945 Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 Fabrizio confirmed TT spoke with Carney and said he will be making an immediate impact in the first team. Carney was told by AC Milan and Barca that he would be apart of their first teams also. Just goes to show how sought after he is and TT persuaded him to join us. Who says he doesn't have pull power?

manpe 10,861 Posted August 3, 2022 Share Posted August 3, 2022 Carney is the type of signing I've been hoping we would start making again - getting someone clearly talented in early before they cost 60+ mill after making a step up in another club. Of course there is always a possibility that such players may not fulfill their promise, but it is a risk with all developing young players and at least we are looking to build for the future at a low cost which we can probably recuperate if it doesn't work out. And if it does work out, then we got a hell of a player on our hands. Fernando 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
