Neves looks a proper talent.  Can see why so many clubs are keen to get him

Be another Ugarte- I never have faith in these type of signings more so with PSG, I think players just either get bored of the shite league or they just fail to be the player actually think they are

I don't know about Neves, but isn't Ugarte exactly what everyone expects him to - very good at destruction and running, but with ball at his feet?

Neves is the one player United had been linked with that I was actually annoyed/bothered about them potentially signing. He looks like a proper future star. So I’d be delighted if PSG end up with him and United get the guy PSG want to replace with Neves. If Neves can actually be had for “only” €75m as some are saying now rather than the €120m release clause Benfica were initially insisting on however I wouldn’t be surprised at all if United try to jump in and steal a march like they did with Yoro. He looked like good mates with Bruno Fernandes while with Portugal a few weeks ago so it’ll probably be easy to convince him with a silly wage offer.

I think our incoming business is done until we start moving a few players on. That would explain the total absence of credible links to anyone currently. 

I bet after this week’s 2 preseason matches we’ll start seeing some movement out and some links to incoming targets again. At least I hope so.

Easier said than done with moving the players. I don't see many people wanting to knock the door down to get the players we don't rate.

Idk, there seems to be quite a bit of interest for several of them. The issue is that we’re asking for relatively sky high fees that the interested clubs are hesitant to pay.

So much for getting a few million in pure profit for Malang Sarr. The club just said fuck it and let him walk for free. Guess we didn’t want to risk Lens having a change of heart if we demanded a fee and then we’d be stuck with him for another year.

There is a possibility that Petrovic could leave this summer. The idea is that Chelsea want to bring a new goalkeeper, who is good at distribution to compete with Sanchez.

😒🤢 Ben Roberts Out

 

Excl. - Samu #Omorodion is still #Chelsea’s main target as new striker. #CFC are ready to submit a new bid to #AtleticoMadrid to try to sign the young player (born in 2004). Ready a contract until 2031 for Omorodion, who has given his avaibility to join #Blues.

A few stats from last season for him:

- Most goals conceded

- Most saves made

- Conceded 6 pens & 1 FK

- Conceded most goals in league from corners

- Conceded -2.2 expected saves (not surprising considering he had most shots against him)

- 4th highest for passes attempted (700+ behind the highest Valles)

- 1.75 goals against per 90 minutes

Feels underwhelming based on the above, although clearly had a very poor defence in front of him

Valles is better in every department.

I really do believe we can be a solid top 4 squad. There isn’t the hype and anticipation of all the new shiny players we bought before the start of the season, but we are yet to see players we bought in 22 and 23. I know it is a big IF, but Nkunku, Lavia, Fofana, Reece can give so much. We used to say we need a season or two for gelling. Now, a year later half of the squad are branded as finished. I really don’t like that in modern football. Give the lads the confidence they need and let them flourish into champions. Hope Maresca is capable of doing it and I certainly believe we have the players to win us the league.
