bluesman2610 1,423 Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 I’m okay with that first of all there’s some players that need to go anyway in order to fund moves to strengthen the midfield and rb positions. Pulisic, Ziyech, Auba, Havertz, RLC, Lukaku. The only problem we can’t get rid of too many English players may get us in trouble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it's already decided Ziyech and Pulisic are leaving. Plus they just came here but if we can find buyers for KK, Sterling, Auba it would be great.

Sadly same article mentions we plan on giving Mount a new contract, he's been one of the worst players all season and will get a contract only because he is an academy product.

Mário César 1,345 Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 we are already given up of sterling? I think that he is one of the less problems that we had sell ziyech and pulisic it is much more important Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NikkiCFC 8,386 Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 Just now, Mário César said: we are already given up of sterling? Actually no, I would keep him but not for starting 11. Is he ok with that? Forwards for next season: Mudryk, Havertz, Nkunku, Felix hopefully, Sterling. This is 5 sure for me. I guess youngsters can fill other spots for squad depth. bigbluewillie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that he is one of the less problems that we had sell ziyech and pulisic it is much more important Sterling needs to play in a team that creates lots of chances against all opponents. Unless our ability to create changes he won’t be as effective as the attackers we are bringing in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mário César 1,345 Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 I prefer him to ziyech and pulisic. its probably that he will stay with us next year. Who will cover his wage? besides, we need deep! there will be a plenty of time for every attacking players Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
milka 3,399 Posted January 15, 2023 Share Posted January 15, 2023 Lewis Hall looks a lot like Chilwell to me and is a much better alternative than Cucurella , every match he plays with more and more self-confidence. bluesman2610, Johnnyeye and blues.bridge 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Club should do to Mount what they did with Benfica. He rejected first contract offer which by reports was very good. So after recent performances they should offer him even less. It would send strong message that average players cannot fuck with us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately Homegrown players, especially decent ones, have quite strong starting position and they know it. If we'd offload him and RLC, we're in pickle unless Bellingham and Rice are coming. Plus, he was good under Lampard and not Terrible under TT, so question is, what's the problem and how to fix it, if possible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the new incomings he shouldn't have to, thankfully. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're not in a pickle atall, we have HG players coming out of our ears including a direct replacement for Mount in the worst case. I want him to stay but he's not irreplacable the same way James is and the contract offer has to reflect that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Club-trained (5): Mount, James, RLC, Gallagher, Chalobah Association-trained (4): Bettinelli, Chilwell, Chukwuemeka, Sterling There's also Broja who would be eligible for the club-trained list but is still U21 so was eligible for the B list so he doesn't take a spot. Lewis Hall will also go to the B list. Vegetable 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He did what he needed to do and made one really good save from Olise I think it was but it is a stretch giving him MOTM. Should have gone to Silva imo. Even Badiashille, Hall and Gallagher imo had solid games and were more deserving. Our defence pretty much kept them at bay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thor 2,748 Posted January 16, 2023 Share Posted January 16, 2023 Anyone know what happened with Fofana? From reported starting to not seeing any game time? Surely not an injury, but maybe already speaking out too early? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
