I remember all the hype a couple of years ago when he was like 18/19 and starting for Milan but haven't heard as much about him in a while. In the comments section of some YouTube vids I've watched of him over the past couple of days there are people saying he's no better or maybe even worse than Kepa. For me he is another Kepa ... he has similar attributes. Descion making is an area of concern. I hope that we avoid him.

Pizy 18,952 Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 Well whoever it is, the clock is ticking. Starting the season with Kepa in the net and then yanking him out again for a new keeper would be ridiculous. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alabama 1,992 Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 We should go for Juan Musso... Quality keeper... killer1257 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Onana will be OK, I won't be shitting myself before a game like I do with Kepa. I've been spoilt with Cech and Courtois but I'd hope for a top tier keeper.

Jase 43,479 Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 It is kinda silly that we spent so much money on attacking players - half of them on one player that we maybe do not need - and are now left scrambling for an above average option for a position that gave us so many problems last season. We could end up with a situation where our good work going forward gets undone by a dodgy keeper at the back this coming season.

Special Juan 28,143 Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 Said it before and will say it again, having Kepa in goal to start the season is complete suicide, not only is he shit but he is mentally completely shot. kellzfresh and Muzchap 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Somehow this doesn't surprise me..and it's worrying to think how costly it will be really if still leaking goals here and there kellzfresh 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think I did? Might be wrong but I don't recall saying it. The GK position turned out to be as much of an issue as our attacking problems last season and yet, we've spent most of our budget to solve the latter and still haven't bought in anyone to solve the former, with the new season less than 2 weeks away. The options are hardly outstanding either. bigbluewillie and Muzchap 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I didn't say we pay double, but teams sure seem to ask more when it is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChelseaFanUK 1,014 Posted September 2, 2020 Share Posted September 2, 2020 Decided to pretend to be Carefreeyouth for 5mins so here goes "I'm told we are working on a new keeper whether Kepa says or goes, I do know who the club really want but cant say anything at the moment, sworn to secrecy - another bit of info for you which no one else has reported - expect more loan exits!" When the club announce our new keeper, i will then come back here and tell you i knew it was player X all along, just couldnt say anything.

shrenshah 186 Posted September 3, 2020 Share Posted September 3, 2020 If we still have Boga buyback, we can just buy him back and straight swap him for Mendy...Rennes is trying to buy Boga from Sassulo for 30Mn. We can effectively get Mendy for just 12Mn Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems like Lollichon's judgement he is the best budget option. Haven't watched him but he's bigger in size at least Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
