From current crop I consider Chalobah, Cucurella and Sterling our weakest links. So one off, other two should not see much game time. 3 minutes ago, Gundalf said: 😭😭 What a joke this guy is.

Pizy 18,985 Posted July 31, 2023 Share Posted July 31, 2023 This Robert Sanchez thing still doesn’t make much sense to me. From our side or his, really. Deemed not good enough anymore for Brighton but is good enough to push Kepa? And why would he want to jump to our bench from theirs? Basically just hoping that Kepa fucks up and if he doesn’t and performs well, Sanchez will be sat on the bench for months. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluesman2610 1,423 Posted July 31, 2023 Share Posted July 31, 2023 I don’t know what the clubs fascination with players from Brighton. If we get Caicedo still we should never look to do business with these cunts ever again, same as if we don’t get him manpe and kexik 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Special Juan 28,187 Posted July 31, 2023 Share Posted July 31, 2023 Problem here is it looks like Poch wants Kepa as his number 1, this means the level of quality who's willing to sit on the bench becomes some what tough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizy 18,985 Posted July 31, 2023 Share Posted July 31, 2023 The only upside of negotiating with Brighton so often is that at least we’re building a report with their owner/negotiating team. We’ll know how they operate and how to approach them. Whether it’s Boehly or Egbhali, having that relationship could give us a leg up on any future players we may be interested in. If we’re able to smooth things out and get Caicedo it wouldn’t shock me at all if we use this business relationship to go in for Mitoma within the next year or two.

We have to beat them at their own game. On the flip side, if you are signing a contract with Brighton, based on their current behaviour you just know you got to force a release clause in there - otherwise they can and will fuck over your career. They are in a difficult and very dangerous spot now because they are trying to transition from being the stepping stone club that know what they are about to being a club that throws its weight around at the big boys table and keeps their good players, but for that to work they have to actually hold it down, and push into top 4. Spurs managed it for a long time by forcing the like of Kane into staying and they could set themselves up for a similar run, or it could just all implode and they destroy everything they've built. Unlike Spurs they don't have a generational goal scorer carrying them so I am betting on the latter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But we are constantly interested in everything they own and will soon proceed to buy training equipment from them, yet we are getting shafted and price gouged on everything, so it doesn't go very well I guess. We built the mutual knowledge and the effect is that they know they can squeeze anything they want from us.

Magic Lamps 11,692 Posted July 31, 2023 Share Posted July 31, 2023 Potter and Cucu obv were absolute brainfarts. Caicedo might well be the real deal so could be worth it biting the bullet here but Sanchez is just an average goalie you have dozens of in Europe. No need to allow ourselves being bend over here again. How much are they even quoting? mkh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluesman2610 1,423 Posted July 31, 2023 Share Posted July 31, 2023 Bar midfield reinforcement (Caicedo) I’m very happy with the squad we have. A Proper no.1 goal keeper would be ideal but it seems the club have other ideas. I just don’t want us to get into a situation where Kepa gets injured and we are struggling to find a replacement. Someone like Bono or Mamardashvilli make too much sense Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pizy 18,985 Posted July 31, 2023 Share Posted July 31, 2023 Our fans really have to let go of this Mbappe dream. We ain’t gonna spend £150-200m on someone who would be here for a year. And that’s only if we could convince him to come here. And the idea of a loan that I see fans of other clubs talking about is even more silly. A loan does absolutely nothing for PSG. The entire reason they want him gone is so they get a massive fee before he walks for free. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It may take another year to get the squad at the level needed but IMO no way it will be more than that, but the direction of travel here is clear - we are going to be a team contending for the title every year again at some point soon.
