Pizy 18,896 Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 Can't say I've ever seen Mendy play nor Rennes, but they did finish 3rd in the league so I'm guessing they were a good side. Which would hopefully mean he's used to playing in a good setup and not coming from some tiny minnow and will be overwhelmed. He's also a fucking giant at 6'6. Would be nice having a Courtois sized keeper again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killer1257 3,282 Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 I have watched Rennes vs Lille and Maignan looked better than Mendy. Gesendet von meinem VOG-L29 mit Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hutcho 8,443 Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 Yeah I haven't seen him play but being 6 ft 6 makes me have more faith in him automatically.As I have said from day 1 kepa just doesn't look big enough.He might still be shite but taking a punt and signing someone will be better than not Muzchap and kellzfresh 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Valdo 583 Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 Why are we signing so many players and there isn't even one announcement yet . Or are we waiting for one big *** nike promo video with Havertz, Chilwell, Thiago and maybe even Werner and Ziyech in it? In that case I'm more then willing ot wait another 2 weeks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jype 6,398 Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 Mendy only conceded 19 goals in 24 games at Rennes last season before the season was cut short. Previous year 42 conceded in a promoted side, which is not bad either. Can't say I know anything more than that about him but if he's done really well for two different teams in the last two seasons he could be quality. Looks quite physical so I'm just guessing but he could be a good commander of the penalty box too, which would immediately improve the set-piece defending. I'd take a well-scouted unknown keeper at around 20m ahead of another big money gamble anytime. Less pressure due to price and after Kepa disaster people should be rather easily impressed so it'd probably do good for the new keepers confidence levels. Silva and Chillwell should improve the defense too which could make the keeper's job easier. Rennes were reported to be interested in a loan for Tomori so maybe a loan deal would sweeten the negotiations a little.

Pizy 18,896 Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 I think the expectation is that we'll hear something about all of these targets by Friday, right? The Chilwell reports said something about "within 3 days he'll be a Chelsea player." Think that was Monday. Thiago Silva will apparently have his medical tomorrow. There was some kind of deadline in regards to Havertz on the 28th right? Which is Friday. Can't recall what that deadline was, Bayer resume training or off to German team duty. Hopefully not too much longer. If things advanced as far as was reported by Romano and Falk, it's a bit weird how paperwork is taking so long, though. Maybe the club really is planning a flashy triple announcement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZAPHOD2319 4,814 Posted August 26, 2020 Share Posted August 26, 2020 Somebody here said that Mendy blocks the ball back into play on most of his saves. I went back and looked at his 2019/20 saves, that could be a problem in the PL. killer1257 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
