Vesper 30,236 Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 We should sell Disasi and/or Badi to Bournemouth they are now fucked at CB they have only one decent one: Marcos Senesi (who played only 1,200 minutes, all comps, and had a bad hamstring injury) two who are scrub level: Chris Mepham James Hill and an 18yo yank teen: Matai Akinmboni Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really shows the power of the PL these days though that Newcastle can go and take a player from Milan who Fabrizio repeatedly said their manager wanted to keep. Leaving an iconic, legendary European club for a second tier English one shows how diminished Serie A is. Vesper 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tonali also left AC Milan for Newcastle, they sold Reijnders to City, Hernandez to Saudi league. They might be iconic but they are just too inconsistent in the league. They should be able to attract top talent and challenge for top 3/4 in Serie A every single season on name alone.

Aaron Bouwman turns 18yo in 18 days, so could join us right before the window slams shut Exclusive: Chelsea eye move for Ajax defender Aaron Bouwman https://www.footballinsider247.com/exclusive-Chelsea-eye-move-for-ajax-defender-aaron-bouwman/ Chelsea are tracking highly-rated Ajax youngster Aaron Bouwman this summer, sources have told Football Insider. Scouts from Stamford Bridge watched the 17-year-old in the recent pre-season Como Cup, where he scored a spectacular goal in a 5-1 win against Celtic on Thursday, 24 July. The defender is regarded as the next top prospect to emerge from Ajax’s famed academy, and Chelsea are keen to be at the head of the queue for the Netherlands Under-18s international. Chelsea have already signed Jorrel Hato from Ajax this summer, and they are now expected to keep tabs on Bauwman’s progress as they weigh up a move for the central defender.

Few lower tier saying same This guy also says we would have to sell Chabz in order to sign a new CB and it would unsettle pong if we did Not sure I believe him (kinsella), we could sell 3/4 cbs and bring in someone good with plenty of backup Maybe no one really knows much at the moment in the media Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizy 18,961 Posted August 10 Share Posted August 10 11 minutes ago, TheHulk said: Not even a movement in getting rid of Jackson and Nkunku.. Yeah, it is a bit concerning that we haven’t heard of any real concrete links with Nkunku. We’ve heard from Romano several times that “many clubs” are interested but nothing seems remotely close at this point with the season a week away. And as for Jackson, he still doesn’t appear to be any club’s priority/first choice at this point even after loads of strikers have moved. He still feels like a fallback option for the likes of Newcastle if they miss out on others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
