Mhsc 1,139 Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 I would say there is a decent chance Hall makes it as a premier league player, a low/medium chance that he makes it as a player for a top 10 side and an extremely small chance he makes it as a player at the level of the Chelsea that we want to be: title contenders/winners every year. And, the lad wanted to go. Anyone saying the club has done wrong here... I just can't agree. The ONLY argument might be that we should have given him a PL loan without an obligation and sell him next year or the year after, which the club was obviously considering. But the lad wanted to go, and now we have absolutely no risk and guaranteed cash on the table with a sell on clause.

TheHulk 2,636 Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 Think we want to build a reputation of letting players that want to go without much fuss because otherwise they won't want to join and we'd be like Brighton. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor 2,817 Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 Barcola looks about 3 times as good as Doku. Don't rate Doku just off the eye test. Barcola I feel has something special about him. mkh and bluesman2610 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pizy 19,252 Posted August 18, 2023 Share Posted August 18, 2023 Poch’s comments there about not wanted to block Broja’s pathway surely confirms that we will indeed be after more of a wide attacker and NOT another striker. I’m good with that. We just have to make sure we get ourselves one who is clinical and whose main focus is on being aggressive and SCORING goals rather than just creating them like Olise. That’s why I didn’t really get that move. We need a Luis Diaz/Sadio Mané type of attacker. mkh 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he's built up a lot of scar tissue on that hamstring. A decision needs to be made if surgery is required to clean it up or he needs to go through a vigorous rehabilitation program on mobility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
