Point this moment we are basically aspiring to become wengers post 04 arsenal. Full of young, inexperienced players who might even be full of desire and energy (obv not Caicedo) . We might even turn up for that possible league cup final vs Liverpool , we might even score the first goal and dominate possession like arse did vs us in 2007. but pool will sure as hell just see us off with their experience without even trying too hard. They know they have this in the bag. 

arsenal had a project back then too. Bought so many promising players, formed a team, even had a decent manager. What did they win? Zilch. Many will not know or remember most of their young players from that time. They all had world class potential but in the end never won anything and returned to their local leagues at the end of their disappointing careers. The exact same thing will happen to our current generation of players.

That is why no player under 25 no matter how talented on paper will get me excited one bit at this point 

Were they in a position to win anything?   Seemed like they were quite happy getting that 4th place most seasons which helped get them a bit of UCL revenue over the years.   The difference between those Arsenal sides and this current Chelsea side is that they didn't spend 200 million on two midfielders "hoping" that they come good in the next 5 years.  If we follow that sort of path, Enzo will be at Barcelona/Real or some other top side in the next few years just like Fabregas had to move on from Arsenal to actually raise his game and win titles. 

Projects are fine and it's all good to go and buy 50 wonderkids in the same transfer window but if there is no structure or good manager in place, then what's the point?

first post on the board about him

@Arlen Correa stopped posting here a year and half ago, but he was a great source for Brasilian info

Fofana - Burnley

 

Doesn’t sound like a perfect destination for a striker, but it’s PL move, still a good chance to raise his value.

They aren't exactly scoring goals with ease, so it could be an easier to the first XI should he impress.

I hope he gets plenty of minutes. He is raw, but he wants it and plays with aggression.

I still haven’t heard any realistic CF options for this window as I don’t see Nkunku as main striker
