grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

having to play with fire here with SU

we really need them to win v Leicester (and then Leicester to lose to Spuds as well) as that eliminates Leicester

BUT

if we get no more points

and SU also beats Everton and SOTON, they could, in theory, knock us out of CL on GD, especially if we get smashed in both the Liverpool and the Wolves games

I know he is far from my first choice, BUT I would 100000% love to have him in net atm over Kepa

How much do you think he costs? I would go for him if he is cheap. PL proven and does the basics right

Burnley almost scored if not for a Coady last ditch challenge

probably (pure guess) £20 to £30m due to English tax and Burnley totally safe (so in the EPL next year)

he likely is England's number 1 soon at the rate he is going

Chelsea can take defending lessons from Burnley

So he would be cheaper than Onana and Cakir?

I got laughed at when I suggested Pope to play between the sticks for us.

Not being funny but the actual Pope from the Vatican would be better than Kepa

He is a great shot stopper, but not so much with the ball and distribution. That said, he does engender far more confidence atm than Kepa.

That is enough for me to be honest. I loved snake's shot stopping abilities and he was such good GK when he was catching the balls in our box for instance during corner kicks because of his height and long arms. I really did not care about his bad ball playing skills. For me, that attribitute is a nice bonus when GKs have it. If not, I do not mind either

Troopz comments on Kane are completely ignored though because he was talking about a white guy and he isn't white. 

Total bollocks.

Shameful. Troopz is too big to get banned sadly. And he did not even apologize for that
