I would take happy ending here Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro The problem with our CM is twofold. First is the lack of goals and the second is the lack of robustness. A fit RLC, Kante and a hand from Amapdu could help with the robustness. However, I suspect SFL is looking for a CM that gets 12-20 goals a season like he, Gerrard, Ballack, Scholes etc used to do. If he wants that, then he has to get Harvetz. 1chelsea and Supermonkey92 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pizy 18,994 Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 So I've been thinking about it a lot this morning and I'm starting to reconcile the idea that we won't bring in a new keeper this summer. I believe Havertz will be our final incoming. Similarly to the Declan Rice transfer, I think we will wait until next summer to bring someone in there. Can see the club giving Kepa one last chance, seeing if he improves with a much better team in front of him, and assess the options in either January or this time next summer. Just the fact that no super reliable roporter has linked us with anyone in particular tells me nothing is close. The Romano's and Di Marzio's of the world sniff these things out well in advance. That combined with there being no real clear destination for Kepa to go. DDA and Fernando 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Willy really should be GK3 so he is needed even if we keep Kepa and roll the dice. Muzchap 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

killer1257 3,282 Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 If we sell some players, I think there will be more incoming.The problem is that we do not sell. Ross Barkley is still here, Emerson still here, Alonso still here, AC is also here. BAKOYOKO will probably just go out on loan. Why we are not selling anyone is a mystery to me.

Gesendet von meinem VOG-L29 mit Tapatalk It's more important for us to sort as many incomings as possible first with the short turnaround for the new season. I think over the next couple of weeks will be when we see some players move on, and there may also be a bit more panic and desperation for some clubs to do business as the season starts which may flip the current market from a buyers one to a sellers one, of course to our benefit.

Id think so too, but there have been rumours about Lamps being done with Kepa...take it with pinch of salt but if anyhow true we are getting a new GK. Plus all the rumours this summer were legit. I doubt Maignan, Onana are bs by media. I mean why would we bring all these players in one window and stick with GK that will guarantee no titles? Like I said it before, good GK is the foundation to any team and that is our main problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pizy 18,994 Posted August 28, 2020 Share Posted August 28, 2020 Just saw on Twitter that Martinez wants out at Arse because Arteta wants Leno as his #1. We should be all over that. Strike 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
