In terms of player profile, Dewsbury-Hall makes perfect sense if CG leaves. Super tidy in the ball, was THE key player for Maresca already, not a teenager who will need to bed in.

But Archie Gray is a puzzling link. Looks like a pure DM who sits in front of the defense. Don’t see a need for him at at all when we’ve got Lavia as a super young DM.

I don't see a pure DM with Archie Gray, see an 8. Reminds me of Kovacic

As for Hall? He is soon to be 26 and looked the part when Leicester was relegated to the Championship.

From a glance Archie Gray seems like top talent.

There is no buyback, watch him play for City or Liverpool in a few years.

FUCK

only £22m with no buyback is an assfuck

no chocolates or even a kiss

if we were the buyer they would be demanding £50m

Gray is a CMF

Well, he certainly won't play for Chelsea with Palmer, Paez and Estevao around. 

he played (and scored and assisted multiple times) at LEFT wing more than few times last season and before

he should get a shot there

he has a decent right foot

Hutchinson is gone. 
 

Sell on clause is what is needed. Buy backs rarely get exercised anyway.

only Olise, Alvarez and Sesko

Olise and Sesko have both told us multiple times they do not want to come here

Alvarez doesnt want to leave Citeh and Citeh do not want to sell him

Håland will leave either summer 2025 (Pep leaves then) or 2026, and Alvarez is banking on being their starting CF if and when that happens

Since it takes two to dance the buyback tango it's a reasonable guess that Hutchinson is emotionally done with Chelsea. If he has no interest in coming back here he ain't signing a buyback. Let's hope for a significant sell on eventually.

I was hoping for an experienced CM to join the ranks. Even if it's just Kiernan, so be it.

Same was said of Havertz and then also Nkunku

no one here of import said that Kai or Nkunku was a true CF

why?

because they are not CFs

absolute madness we did not buy Giorgi Mamardashvili last summer

he is the best keeper at the Euros IMHO, was a monster today

a 1.97m tower, so good in the air, with good feet/passing

superb reflexes

Diogo Costa looks like a dwarf next to him (11 cms shorter) and Costa had a sort of meh game, including his passing

Ramano claimed last night that Mamardashvili will be available this window. Assuming that's true, he will presumably prefer a Champions League club if he can find one that; suits him, needs a keeper, and is able to spend on one. Maybe we could convince him that our Champions League absence is just temporary, and remind him, that if he joined, he'd be playing in the club world cup next summer.

Is there a GK role available at a major team? Real have Courtois back. Inter signed the Genoa keeper. 

Unlike outfielders, there's a smaller market for GKs.

[Strike 7,058]

I don't know if he will work out but really like the look of Aaron Anselmino. Worth taking the risk even at 15-20m

Of all the youngster deals, I like Kendry Paez (think he could be huge) and Aaron.

So KDH is sat around in a sleeping bag in a doorway in Brighton smoking cigars and deleting previous Tweets on Chelsea
