it's not insulting, it is the truth, before the Hoops, he was playing for Legia Warsaw in, ...... tadaaaaaah, the Polish league

Yeah, I know, it's my city and I even got their supporter's card I needed to get into the game, lol

What I meant is this league's technique level is straight horrifying, so calling someone "championship level" is rather compliment, but "polish league level" not so much 😆Anyway, this league is riddled with huge administrative problems, like bad academies, buying random Balkan/Slovak players and selling anyone with bit of skill immediately for any profit just to get by and so on.

Yeah, Ondrej Duda made it into Arsenal nope, Norwich, but I guess this kind of success is extremely hard to replicate and I doub't Boehly is into taking another Zappacostian level of gamble…

Media is starting to throw Pulisic’s name around.

Where’s that 3rd Fofana bid already…

Was hoping it would be done this week before Leicester play another match and risk him.

Even if he were to join eventually, shouldn't we want him to play against Arsenal this week to maximize the chance of them dropping points against Leicester? 😄

If Christensen was genuinely available, we'd be fools not to pursue that deal. I don't care about what happened towards the end of last season, he's a very good defender with his best years seemingly in front of him and somebody already used to the club, the coach, the system and slots seamlessly into either the right side or the centre of the back 3.

I really like Fofana and I genuinely believe if he continues on the right trajectory he could become a superstar centre back of this coming generation but this summer we'd still be paying for potential.

We will still likely need a new defender next summer to replace Silva so the topic of Fofana may come up again then with another year under his belt and maybe some more proof of this transfer fee.

I assume the report on Christensen has been leaked by his camp and his social media activity is just a bit of scaremongering to apply pressure to Barca and it'll be resolved but if it did end up being more than that both parties should swallow their pride because he's a good fit for us and we're a good fit for him.

 

This is an easy one I think, Tommy T decides. He knows the player's strengths and weaknesses, the history of the squad's relationship with Chris, and of his own relationship with the Dane. If the boss signs off on this then that's good enough for me.
