There was a bit more about this in the Chelsea thread. https://www.not606.com/threads/chelsea.404707/page-10#post-16633600
Which in terms of ****housery they have sold a lot of ok to good players and replaced them with bang average players. Pointless.
Id be absolutely fuming if I was a Chelsea fan and they let Colwill go. Aside from when they had to due to the transfer ban no one from their academy can establish a place in the 1st team despite turning out a load of quality players. Then they just go and jizz hundreds of millions on average footballers. I'm very happy we seem to be trying to give some of our kids a chance. Miley looks to have a good shot at being an important player for us one day.
I think miley is ready now tbh but for me I wouldn't change the team from last season yet... looks like a liability so far. Willock will hopefully be back soon.
Actually on this point I watched a 3 part documentary on Netflix called south of the river. It's worth watching. You can see why Chelsea have access to a pipeline of so many good young players.
Antony Gordon is "fighting" to save his Newcastle career apparently: https://www.footballinsider247.com/...stwSjdSGOM_JDwc9MeUxCnlIPgbJB8EL9oiFziCoaUexU Yes, ****e like this is the reason Gabriel Agbonlahor isn't a real pundit.
Ridiculous he's not really had a chance to get in the team because it was doing so well and he's looked excellent in pre season. If anything he's going to start and Barnes will have to earn a place.
To be honest, I'm half resigned to us not getting anyone else in this window now. We don't need squad fillers, as we have plenty. So any signings now should only be for first team starters. And we can't seem to get the right players we want on the current budget available, due to FFP restrictions. Clubs either want too much or the players want higher salaries than we can offer. Selling the likes of Darlow for under 1/2 a million doesn't exactly help us a lot. Yeah it's one off the wage bill, but nowt in terms of generating revenue for transfer kitty.
I'm not I think they'll sign more 1st team players mate. Plenty of time. Selling players so must be replacing them.
Let's face it left back wouldn't be hard to strengthen and I think cb is much the same... I think people crave big fees and fancy names, but any half decent left back and cb would be great tbh.
