Maybe, but over the last two season he's been brilliant. 

we cocked it all up when Marina said Tchou was not ready 2 years ago

Rice is not in his league and has regressed

we should have sold Kante and purchased Tchou right after we won the CL in 2021, his value was still fairly high then 

we could have gotten close to double for Kante what Tchou would have cost then and Kante was already exhibiting injuries in the 2019/20 season

the writing was on the wall

Kieron Dyer claims members of Chelsea squad have told him they don't rate Graham Potter and preferred playing for Thomas Tuchel, believing the former boss is 'on a different planet'

Not buying this at all. Guy hasn't played in years and has had no affiliation with our current crop of players to suggest that they'd have a bond on that level to reveal that sort of information.

He's just spouting controversial shit, that's easy to believe to look interesting on a shitty YouTube podcast so he gets more screen time. Get in the sea you prick.

Even there it won't work.

 

As for the Monaco CB, I am shocked we are in for him. We just signed three CBs in the summer.

Koulibaly would have been an okay signing if he was here as a second choice CB. 

Back in the summer I wanted Skriniar here as first choice and KK as a 2nd choice. That way he wouldn't have been so exposed.

Too bad Fofana turned out to be injury prone like we feared.

Why do you persist in believing Marina made decisions on football grounds? If she made any 'football' pronouncement it can only have been channelling Roman. It's probable that she had opinions of course. After all, she watched far more live football than many of us and we all have opinions. Having, or even offering, an opinion is one thing, making decisions is another.

You were absolutely right about this at the time. NG should have been sold in summer '21.

Thought it was all but confirmed with was Tuchel and McLaughlan that decided to pursue Lukaku over Tchouameni given they felt the latter wasn’t ready and in the meantime get Saul on loan?

Cucurella?

[Vesper 28,976]

Just now, turgi said:

Cucurella?

he is not a CB!

that is just gaslighting to try and claim that

lol

no matter how much people wish he was or claim he is, he is NOT a CB, even when he plays in a back 3 he doesnt play a true role, plus he is so short he make Lisandro Martinez look tall

IF we play him every game in back 3 or back 4 as a CB, we will finish down around 11th or so (at best)

Matt Law settled that issue ages ago, she DID control football and transfer decisions

every few months (thankfully less lately) this always comes up
