Richarlison is another interesting option I would really like us to go after...

Everton is a pain in the ass to deal with...

he is signing a big fat new contract

and yes, I would take him over Zaha all day all night, plus he can play striker

only thing is he is right footed

We are so fucking abysmal in striker department I would take a championship striker above Bats and Giroud.......but this is Chels, we must surely aspire for bigger players than Richardson Zaha etc.

I edited my reply to remove his aversion to RW btw

he doesn't have that

[Vesper 29,290]

VAR took a pen away from Leicester btw

Chilwell wasnt touched 

[LAM09 6,857]

Villa doing what we do and gift Utd a goal in the process.

well, those two would cost a combined £160m or so

so not exactly small time players

quality is another matter

especially Zaha

Richarlison is actually really high up there for me, I think he is pretty class, is big, young, fast, durable, and a proven EPL scorer who also tracks back oki

 

[Vesper 29,290]

just saw that Manure goal, it was a baby version of the Kepa-off-his-head OG, except off their GK's shoulder/back

I hate Rashford

The issue is average players going for immense amounts today, I wouldnt mind Richarlison as a back up but not as a starter, he would give us good depth and can slot in. I much rather go for that Martinez guy from Inter, he keeps on scoring.

backup Striker?

if we bought him we would surely be a starting winger

and his backup striker role is a huge plus in his favour

[Atomiswave 6,072]

Jammy cunts.....all the while we get fuck all for luck.

Sorry that was what I meant.......lets see what happens. We wont get anyone in in Jan even if we we are allowed. Come summer the judgement will come for the board. I hope they pull through.

Thanks didnt know that......

supposedly Messi has won the Ballon d'Or again

I hate the dippers the van Dijk got ROBBED if that is the case

if not him, then Lewandowski (although he will more than likely win it next year, IF he keeps up his pace so far)

they do the voting at a stupid time, it should be right before the season starts and based off only the previous league season plus cups and also any major international tourney like the WC and Euros/Copa America

last year was an even worse joke

Modric was the worst winner since Michael Owen

[MoroccanBlue 5,322]

How was he robbed? 

Messi led Europe in goals, dwarfs anyone else in chances created, most FK's and most hattricks. 

It's become a farce that this award used to emphasise who won the the CL or who won a international competition vs who actually was the best in Europe.

Stats alone aren't the only marker. If anything, trophies should be king unless Messi is getting Muller-esque stats.

VvD reached two finals, winning one.

1 1

Vardy

[Nicco 927]

Messi winning it would be a disgrace.
