Duppy Conqueror 1,557 Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 Hope we done now with buying AM/W's. But it's like hoping Augustus Gloop could leave the sweets alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless we sell Neto. I often said I like Neto a lot, however he is limited at times. He is great to have in the team but if a team comes with a nice offer I would consider it.

Special Juan 28,202 Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 If we are after another winger you would have to think it's Madueke going and with Mudryk's career basically over we will need another winger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Palmer,Estevao,Gittens,Neto,George,plus others that can play in those positions if needed with Quenda coming next year is ample and thats presuming Noni will be sold soon. Two defenders and a new keeper should be absolute limit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He seems to be the only one we've been linked too for that role.hopefully he wouldnt be put off having to compete with Cucu tho and see that he can play plenty of games as cover for 2 positions to begin with.plus when you sign longterm for Chelsea you are likely to have many different head coaches so your situation can change if you arent at first a starter.

maxlev 54 Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 Why not sell the whole squad and buy a new set of players for the season. Most fans will never be patient enough with our young players in the squad. Funny enough they are still clamouring for the club to sign similar set of players elsewhere. It is more of a back and forth thing 😂. I thought we did go for young, more consistent and experienced like R Leao, Rodrygo etc. Vesper and The Rising Sun 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magic Lamps 11,692 Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 (edited) Like many, I am fine with letting Jackson go now we secured Pedro. Not necessarily bc of all his misses, he has some redeeming qualities on the pitch but bc of his continued immaturity and unprofessional attitude. His ability to deal with pressure (e.g. CL qualification expectations, competition from Delap) has only gotten worse, impressively emphasised by two bonkers red cards in his last three games. I am not there yet with Madueke. Granted, apart from his short purple patch last autumn he has been ineffective but his ability to wreak havoc and necessite 2on1 coverage in virtually every backline created space for others. I would say he has done just enough to earn another year of assessing his trajectory. Hence, I am also on the fence about kudus. He too is super quick, reliably invokes chaos in opposition defences but fails to tangibly capitalize far too often. It doesn’t make much sense to sign yet another left footed AM/Winger if we don’t sell Madueke - with a Neto likely being safe on current form. finally, as pointed out before, the squad needs some continuity. We can’t keep selling starters every summer, taking away this young squads ability to settle down a bit and internalise tactics and mentality.

mkh 627 Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 Academy coach Jimmy Smith announces he will be leaving. +18 years at the club. Joined as an U8. Got a debut in 2006 under Mourinho and then came back after retiring to spend five years being a coach. Vesper 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(via@EduardoHagn) Fine with this as he never seems to sort his attitude out consistently. Gittens went for £55m package, Noni can go for £75m minimum considering he is PL proven, and where would they play him? Odd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pedro was out for the last five games at Brighton due to "discipline issues" and we keep sniffing around Garnacho, who is the ultimate toxic player.

Pizy 18,996 Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 I’m actually kind of surprised that we haven’t been linked with Harvey Elliot with our whole young player obsession. Lot of people think he could pull a Dole Palmer and explode once he leaves Liverpool to be an every match starter. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mkh 627 Posted June 30 Share Posted June 30 🔵SebSB on Gittens release clause: "It was a funny one. And this is actually why the negotiation has been a little bit protracted because his release clause is dependent upon which European competition Dortmund qualified for next season. So if they finished in the Champions League places, it was at its highest. If they missed out on European football together, it was at its lowest. And the problem was that over the last eight weeks of the Bundesliga season, Dortmund went from mid-table to snatching the fourth place on the final day of the season. No one kind of knew what their leverage was in that. So it was really, really awkward for everybody." (via@TheAthleticFC) Vesper 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the second offer over 50m was rejected, the Dortmund director went out of his way to say that it was only rejected bc the bid came in hours before the windows closed not bc of the amount. Still, they came back with 55m+ right when it reopened. Also got a hunch Bayern interest was never real and they just did it to coax the club they dislike most into overspending Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
