Will he? I can see him being a starter from day one.

It's strange he has such a hard on for Brighton given he only played 17 games and got in due to an injury to Webster. I wonder if he's using them as an easier route to City, well Pep.

Did I miss something, last report I read he wasn’t pushing for a move.

Can we really see Lukaku accepting nearly 10x less of Benzema wages given he thinks he's on par with him?

I was in fairness basing it around the interview where he banged on about repaying faith in him, which I find strange given he'd probably get more games here by February next year than he got at Brighton last season.

Also the fact Brighton keep coming in with bids must surely mean they've been getting encouragement from his side, but hopefully what you've read is right.

Really stupid to see a bunch of reputable journalists coming out and saying that Mbappe to Chelsea isn’t going to happen as if it was ever even a 1% possibility. Like, no shit! Cheers, Captain Obvious!

Real Madrid is surely the only club he’d consider. But I think they’re creating a headache for themselves by signing him when Vini Jr is already one of the top 3 LW in the world. Not sure how you have Mbappe and Vini who both play that position in the same team. Mbappe hates playing through the middle and it really limits his effectiveness. 

Even some of the other possible clubs that can afford him have super key players on the left who you would annoy or make unhappy if you signed Mbappe.. City have Grealish, United have Rashford, and Liverpool play both Diaz and often Darwin there. Doubt Bayern could afford him and Barca are already living on the very edge of FFP trouble.

And we have Mudryk.

Mbappe could play ST, rumor is if Mbappe wanted an easy route to Madrid his best would have been to stay silent and signed with Madrid on a free. If Madrid wants him they have to splash the cash. 
 

I think United is the favorite as long as Mbappe would want them.

I am not worried here, I think Coilwill will be an instant starter next season. He has been at the club since he was 8, I think the club will reassure him of a clear path of playing time.

He really loves them Italian girls.

if we sell koulibaly, he will have a lot of play time 

there's no sense to sell him and buy another defender 

theres no doubt he would have a lot of playing time, im saying if he does not want to play for Chelsea he can just fuck off. had enough of that shit this season.

I think footballers will go to Saudi when they’ve given up on career in Europe so it’s not about money

Really?

In place of who?

or in a back three with Baddy and Fofana?

in place of Badiashile who's injured

[Mário César 1,346]

well maignan is not interested in join us, as expected 

so is onana or nothing seems to me 

[ZAPHOD2319 4,826]

The last injury report on Badiashile said he will be ready for preseason

Badiashille will more than likely be injured at the start and even if he wasn't I think Levi would start over him.

I like Baddy but Levi has potential to be our VVD.

Why did Brighton drop him and play a 31 year old English GK for half of the season?

Think people are really underappreciating the composure Badiashile has at his age. 

I think we need to figure out how to utilise all 3 CBs.
