    Not arguing what Enzo is or is not, just your reasoning

    Definitely. I wonder if he thought when he was booked that it was a 3 game ban, hence the overreaction. Anyway hopefully lesson learned.

    my reasoning is perfectly logical. they've bought a player who's been put at 6 by everyone else then shoved him forward stupidly.

    then compounded it by buying 4 more of the same position.

    caicedo only makes sense as a 343 or 4231 beside fernandez. not behind him

    Robbo’s scotland made it 5 wins out of 5 in qualifying in a group with Spain and Norway. Brilliant for them, just need 2 points to secure place at euro 2024

    Well, he did have the injury-prone label from his youth years which is one of the reasons I didn't want him. So glad we didn't waste £50mil on that.

    Unfortunately, the ban for dissent is probably deserved even if the original card was not.

    Yeah. I think he MAY develop into some player, but the injury thing was the reason we just didn't want to hit Soton's £50m price tag. Even £40m was risky. But IF it's right we did go back in with £55m after the Caicedo aberration (the club denies this) and this forced Chelsea to go to £58m... well, the best we can say about that is over the two deals we've probably forced Chelsea to go @ £50m over what they wanted, and maybe another £20m on top of that for what the two of them combined are actually worth.

    England "team"

    pickshite
    walker Guehi slabhead chilwell
    rainbowlaces rice bellingham
    saka kane maddison
    it really is quite a state.

    there's nothing wrong with some but pickshite, slabhead, even the covid denier never mind the semi retired rainbow laces gobshite.

    mixed is what you'd call that team

    Commentators going on about England being favourites for Euro 2024, and they are now losing to Ukraine!

    1-1 now

    Wont win Euro's if they keep picking players that'll have had no game time come next summer.

    Got to be Southgates last chance. 4th tournament, ****ed up his big chance by being too defensive against Italy. Doesn't win this time round, best to look elsewhere.
    Don't want him wasting the prime years of Bellingham, Saka and TAA

    They won't win the euros as France and Spain will be tough challenges but every qualification you get the same build up, then a big engurlund party in early June then vilification in July.

    It's traditional.

    the hilarity of Southgate continues.

    watching him leave rainbow laces on and take Bellingham off.

    then leave rainbow laces on and take maddision and the saka off.

    finished off putting gallagher on to shore up while England are walking

    Mudryk looks the biggest waste of money since Pepe btw.

    They only bought him cause Arsenal showed an interest. Seems to be the only reason they're buying some of these players is to stop others having them.

    More proof that Chelsea have no idea what they're doing and any player going there is a fool put a stain on their career as a mercenary in it for the money

    Quite a few imo will simply see out those long contracts and never play at a high level again

    I imagine will be lots of loans out with a few million fee each year until a couple years left on contract and then will sell for 10/20m each. But like what’s happened with lukaku

    That's all fine for one aspect of ffp but it makes zero sense to the prem rules on amounts of losses in the prem.

    The simple situation is Chelsea declared 121 mil loss in 21/22. 22/23 will show a massive massive loss (has to) and 23/24 will show a massive loss as they have noneurope, no sponsors so have to see revenues down by 150mil minimum.

    There is no way in the real world these losses can be sustained and I would expect the the Premier league version of ffp to kick in shortly.

    I know walker is still quick, bot nonetheless, it was supposed to be Mudryk's USP. Walker gave him 15 yards there and still had time for a glass of port and a castella before catching him. I just ****ing bet you that Sterling is still outpacing him in training too.
