I’ll write a full summary because messages are spread out: - Firstly said we will make 8/9 more signings. - he says he’s never seen anyone like KLD at his age. Says he’s so intelligent, even with all his money ‘sitting on billions’ he uses the money the premier league gives him to enhance the club and transfers. - says KLD knows he needs league experience but hints at them still being younger players who can ‘go for even more money next year’ - Says petrovic is close to being finalised. He says it’s not a case of the player now it’s between Chelsea and Sunderland to agree the fee. Says the player is waiting for the deal to be closed. Believed the narrative was pushed that the deal was not advanced because we wanted to work on it and get it closed quietly. Says he isn’t surprised by this as he broke the news early. - Says KLDs phone call with Talbi went really well. Player is happy with the project and what is happening here whilst also understanding he will not be the only player coming in his position. - Mentions a number 10 and a LW as two positions were looking at. - Says Ghisolfi is important and has been given the key. This all sounds very very healthy.
Because we are targeting the markets he’s a specialist in. He admits he was a bit early to post about Petrovic as club waiting to close the deal
Yep he's the one i really really want Mika is exciting as he's a potential match winner, forward players are always more exciting than GKs but Petrovic is class imo. Instantly a top 10 PL GK if he joins, I've said a few times if I was Chelsea manager he would be my no1
We’ve got the ace in the pocket. We haven’t sponsored the stadium. We haven’t sold the stadium to a holding company. We haven’t sold the women’s team. We have all these tricks in back pocket should we need them. They are on the ball in every way these owners we are very, very lucky to have them.
All very positive this having people who know what there doing running the club with a structure that top talent likes.
He could have said ‘Elliott is desperate to have a Roker Beach view every day like’ the shan bastard…
