What's everyones thoughts on Guirassy at €17.5m? Might be a one season wonder? With Sesko off the market, at that price, it has to be tempting no? 

I’d rather have a player in form and peak of his career on the cheap than get another expensive mega gamble

I think we massively overpaid here. Estevao seems highly talented, great dribbler, but by his highlights is so incredibly far off a finished product. Plus he seems very left footed . He plays like a very talented 17 yo but for 65m he should be close to wc already. Kendry paez to me looks far more mature with better shot and eye for goal.

This is what happens when owners shit the bed, they got desperate after fucking up the Endrik deal and wanted to tie up the next big talent after him.

Would be so amazing to get him but doubt.

Not only would Kvara cost 100m but the quotes that Fabrizio tweeted made it sound like he only wants to go to a CL club. 
 

I think PSG have been linked so that’s likely where he’s eyeing.

Chelsea scouts have been in attendance several times to watch Khvicha Kvaratskhelia, but they are mentioning Champions League and Chelsea are not in it. (@FabrizioRomano)

Napoli issue a statement responding to comments made by Khvicha Kvaratskhelia's father and agent, with both saying the Georgian could leave.

"Napoli reiterates the player has a contract for another three years. Kvaratskhelia is not on the market. It is not on agents or fathers to decide the future of a player under contract with Napoli, but the club! End of the story."

Pissing off De Laurentiis probably isn’t the best idea. Kvara may not get out of there until his contract runs down now.

Thank goodness. Think he’s highly overrated and will flop the next place he goes.

Thank you. Going by numbers in Seria A we should drop 150m for Pulisic. He had better season than Kvara, Leao and Chiesa players many fans actually want to spend fortune.

You’re never going to have a perfect player in every position. 
We have serviceable enough options there. We are stacked in some positions. 

Sometimes the right player isn’t available. But some people on here always want us to buy for the sake of buying.

I’m actually keen on the likes of Duran because I don’t see any out and out surefire thing at striker. Jackson is good enough and getting better. Why not sign Duran and see if he fills out potential and see if Jackson continues to grow. 
Sometimes those expensive options aren’t worth the risk and better to go for potential in meantime.

Just need some time and cohesiveness.

Not super relevant given that Pulisic is NOT playing on our left wing, but Mudryk is. Any of the players listed above would be a MASSIVE upgrade over Mudryk... including Pulisic (with the caveat of his injury-proneness).

To be fair, I'd not break the bank for any of the players listed above (not a fan of Leao either), for one reason or another, but would definitely try to upgrade on Mudryk, and even try really hard to move him. I think his lack of teamwork/work rate alone will cost us points in the PL.

The handling of Colwill by Clearlake has been spot on. Still think he could turn into a great CB

Even Osimhen is in that situation. Valued too highly now after that new contract and release clause. Clubs have stopped spending like they were doing in 2022-23.

Serie A is indeed dogshit these days and I agree that it’d be super risky buying Kvara or Leão for mega money and expecting them to dominate like they do in Italy here in the PL. But Chiesa I think would absolutely kill it in England. He has the perfect game to translate well. I’d take him in a millisecond at Chelsea.

Fabrizio saying once again this morning that it’s not 100% that he’ll be staying at Juve if a serious offer goes in, btw…. 👀 

If the club is determined to go big in a wide attacker this summer I’d personally choose Chiesa over Olise.
