stament Posted June 2, 2021 Share Posted June 2, 2021 Lukaku had stated he's definitely staying and has spoken with the next manager even though he's not been confirmed. So whilst Inter are desperate for cash and even if they contemplated selling him, the player wants to stay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stament Posted June 2, 2021 Share Posted June 2, 2021 9 hours ago, keithsimmonds said: I,ll answer for you then...he say,s cash or cheque. Levy then placates the fans as Chelsea have paid over the odds we chuck 4 to 5 unwanted players there way and that,s that. There is some rivalry between the clubs....the fans on the other hand it,s pure thuccking hatred....you wont see me in anything that has "under armour" on it...and they don,t even sponsor them any more. Oh, so you didn't ask Roman, instead you answer you own question? How convenient. Levy needs to tread very carefully after the ESL debacle and the failed José appointment which was costly. This move wouldn't be purely about money. Man City have already come out saying they will spend big. Who will City try to get to you think? Kane or Haaland logic would say with Kane bring lost likely. City have deeper pockets, whilst Roman is rich, they are a sovereign state just ask Laporte or Perez ????

stament Posted June 2, 2021 Share Posted June 2, 2021 Seems we could finally get some movement.... https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-9643609/Kylian-Mbappe-Real-Madrids-present-new-manager-Carlo-Ancelotti.html Interesting that it quotes José as bring approached before appointing Carlo. Following Ronaldo's statement it is clear he wants to leave. But there is also speculation of a return to Old Trafford. Looks like maybe we will get a striker merry-go-round to join the manager one we are experiencing. It seems our striker options are reducing by the day. Lukaku and Haaland no, which leaves Kane (extremely unlikely IMO). If Icardi moves to Juve that's one less. Now we are into the realms of Belotti, Moreno Silva I guess.... Martinez possibly. Do I hear a shout for Toney??? Surely to similar to Tammy. Can't remember the last time we bought a topexperienced player from the Championship. I will discount Green and Shwarzer as they were at the end of their careers and bought purely as experienced backup's not first team players. Ron, I'm sure you can recall.

keithsimmonds Posted July 28, 2021 Share Posted July 28, 2021 Dujon Sterling impressed me in last nights game v Bournemouth even though he only got to to play the 1st half. Conor Gallagher was the only player to play the entire 90 minutes....can see him being loaned out again. Lotus Cheek looked okay in the deeper role he played towards the end of the game....both Broja and Ugbo took there chances well. Out of the 14 players last night who were not in last seasons squad...only Sterling based on what i have seen of him in the past, might have a chance in this seasons squad...just my opinion though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wasn't that I hadn't looked at the thread and as always these things are never confirmed until the deal is done - I am not blaming you at all. Just pointing it out, after all you aren't the source for these stories. Chillax! Maybe he will sign, maybe he won't. Looks like Kounde could join before we get a striker.

keithsimmonds Posted August 1, 2021 Share Posted August 1, 2021 Good 1st half for a friendly imo Chalobah has done okay in centre of defence and Loftus cheek has put himself in the shop window if nothing else. Werner still a pita for the opposition and Havertz is a Rolls Royce of a player. Hope Sterling gets some mins in the 2nd half. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would get shot of Drinkwater Barkley Baba Rahman Bakayoko Clarke Salter Baker Zappacosta Alonso Miazga kenedy sell em all plus one of either Tammy or Bats....pretty sure Loftus Cheek will be on someone's radar...and maybe Rafa will take back Barkley. Loan out Ampadu and Malang Sarr give Tino Anjorin a squad number and keep both Chalobah and Sterling.

I feel we will lucky to get 15m for Bats now, he's another who missies so many chances. Another lacking confidence. Would much prefer Broja in the squad and get rid of Bats and his wages. Tammy isn't a premier league challenger's striker, he could be in the future but at present but I feel his peak is a Europa team, one outside the top 6. Bamford misses too many chances for me....

Villa defo came flying out of the blocks. Rumours they also want Cantwell which will mean the Grealish sale has virtually got them an entire new attack: Bailey, Buendia, Cantwell? and Ings to supplement Wadkins.

Interested to hear your comments on the match and players. Yeah i watched it...had to use the mute button as Clive Walkers commentary was making my ears bleed (blokes got verbal diarrhoea) and every Chelsea player has a "great 1st touch" and "you could see what he was trying to do" even though he made a complete hash of it.......Foxtrot Oscar Clive. Chalobah was good, the 1st half was also good and for ten minutes after 7 subs were brought on in the 2nd half that was good...then Bakayoko <deleted>....up yet again and they scored then Sarr f.....up and they equalized. Credit goes to Kovacic who was excellent +Kante,Cho was much better at RWB than he was against the Arssse at LWB, Pulisic had some very good moments so to Ziyech Werner as usual was everywhere and Havertz was very quiet (Did n,t need to do much) back 3 Rudiger Zouma and Chalobah all good...Alonso is Alonso rinse and repeat control it pass it back control it pass it back. Overall imho RLC will play for someone in the Prem but i dont think it will be us, Zouma will be of interest to someone if he does n,t stay with us....and it is buy 1 get 1 free for at least 16 players... 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
