Spending on wingers made absolutely sense. With Pulisic and Ziyech hopefully gone, we would only have Sterling as a winger.

Bissouma is a good player who has been mismanaged at Spurs... everyone bottles it there.

He’s not that good. Not even at Brighton but I think he did what a lot of these guys do and had a few good games against us so instantly people thought he was better than they were. He is so so middle of the road. I am actually surprised he hasn’t improved under Conte he seems like the sort of profile he would want in a MF player. 

If we were to pinch anyone from Spurs midfield it should be Bentancur. Who is pretty fucking good.

I think Bissouma is alright but yea Bentancur is their best midfielder for sure.

But are they gone?

Pulisic is out so can’t sit a medical anywhere so he isn’t going to be gone anytime soon. Probably be the summer. 

And supposedly, bar loan interest from Newcastle, has there ever been any real interest in Ziyech? Again, not so much by sounds of things. 

I mean if our transfer strategy is just overload the squad with attacking players, which we have plenty of (despite some of them being poor) and neglect key needed positions we have needed investment in for 2 seasons now, ie. a good back up RB and another good level CM, then so be it. But it will only end one way.

I'm rather excited to see us sign two wingers that caught my eye during the CL qualifying stages last season. The combined sum might be rather high, but they are direct wingers for whom we have been crying out for since the days of Robben and Duff. The only downside is that hopes of signing Kvaratskhelia and Leao are probably over.

Next, a RB that can compete with James rather than a fodder. We aren't going after Livramento in the summer, so we need to get things done now.

I don't think Leo was ever serious about leaving. Just getting a better deal

Honestly, if that deal was offered I’d take it. 🤣

A one year transfer ban after we’ve already completed our rebuild.

From what I heard this is true and only after we lost to Fulham we decided to sign Mudryk.

Contracts hardly mean anything nowadays. I could him imagine him getting a pay rise before joining someone like City or Madrid within 12 months.

Bid for Caicedo has been made according to Ornstein. Another offer for a CM that’s far below their clubs’ valuation but at least we are indeed still trying.

No they are not gone but a club that has ambition to be champion again cant rely on these kind of players. These are squad players, nothing more. So yea, Mudryk, Madueke, Sterling as starters and Puli and Ziyech as back up if we cant get rid of them.

Cant even be good for Leverkusen. No option for a club like Chelsea.

Lol typical. Over spend in areas we are inflated in. Low ball areas we are desperate in.
