laura90 556 Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 So this "building house from the roof "" approach from the previous regime I hated, is part of the new regime DNA I see. I am deeply disappointed and shocked and sad with this signing. Just like I said for Felix the other day, it wont make us climb up on the table without functional central midfield. We are stockpiling attackers we are not able to sell, and getting only has beens and injury prones in that midfield. It's sad really. At least I hope when he comes to Stamford Bridge tomorrow, he will be hearing " We will stay up" instead "We are going down" chants despite this absurd transfer policy that is bringing us further down with each passing window/ day.

JDY 1,290 Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 [Gazzetta] Inter and Milan Skriniar are moving apart. It is becoming increasingly likely for the defender to LEAVE the club at the end of June 2023 for free @Vesper OhForAGreavsie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor 2,719 Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 Mudryk is a great talent. He actually drives the ball at players and makes them defend. Same with Nkunku and we saw it with Felix as well. We need a mindset shift, and having players like this come in - set the precedent - will also then filter to the guys who won't be starting. I honestly really like the crop of guys we will have upfront for next season (assuming Felix comes as well) - Nkunku, Mudryk, Fofana, Felix, etc. These guys are all lightning quick, but the biggest thing is, they aren't frail. Dynamic players. Our biggest issue is still CM and RB. I like the mixture of Hall, Cucu and Chillwell on the left. I think it will be fine and players will find their feet there. CMs, RB and a CB for next season - and we're set to compete for top 3-4 again and build towards title contention.

Superblue 6,372 Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 Does anyone think if we were to move for Felix permanently at the end of the season, Atletico would be receptive to a player or two packaged in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bumtrubbler 6 Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 within reason. any attacking players we sign will be a step up from what we have. pulisic ziyek Hudson adoi havertz etc are not premier league players. May look good for their country but not 1 is up to the Premier league. only my opinion 🤷♂️ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They do have a history of taking our deadwood. And now it seems Simeone is staying so there are definitely some interesting players for him. Especially in attack. Currently they have only 3 forwards in the squad. Morata, Griezmann and Correa. And Simeone usually plays with 2 so they are short. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NikkiCFC 8,336 Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 I would like us to establish philosophy like Bayern. Formation and system wise. Always playing on the front foot, you feel like they can score 3 goals in like 15 mins. Alabama 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But in reality, I wonder whether they'd be interested in swapping Havertz and Felix and what sort of price differential each team would have on that.

calculatingInfinity 1,472 Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 Without ever having watched Mudryk play, it feels a bit scary to spend that much on a guy who played so little pro football, at the age of 22. Hoping my fears are put to shame, but feels a bit... Scary. manpe, Strike, Vesper and 1 other 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to see what the add-ons are, how hard they are to achieve the base transfer fee is £62m so if there are add-ons that require (like Hazard had) Win the Ballon d'Or or top EPL scorer etc than maybe not so bad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
