To be fair, although the airport might no longer be closed, there are still no flights going to London from Istanbul - all cancelled until tomorrow.

Most airlines ceased operations yesterday and every single flight out of Istanbul is currently showing as cancelled, other than one internal flight due to leave at 5pm tonight.

The whole place is shut down, I've got thousands of polo shirts due to leave this week, but none of the transporters are working and the factory workers can get in to pack the goods anyway.

The 12:40 to London seemed to get out. Maybe Acun had a word..

I’ve heard he’s a bit of a bellend as well and flashes women with his cock out in pub toilets.

Maybe we could test the clubs with a bid in this window before the price goes up further same with Baxter.

Thought someone mentioned we had an agreed fee with Chelsea as part of the loan? Or did I make that up. Obviously down to Baxter’s aspirations. You could argue that Chelsea’s keeping options aren’t the strongest bit of their squad. Kepa still young, but they seemingly overpaid, as he’s got mistakes in him and too much was expected too soon. Mendy decent, but could Baxter see himself as a no 2 there eventually and Mendy’s successor?

I would argue Chelsea have two of the best young keepers in Europe. Kepa has improved a lot and Mendy is far more than decent, he was one of the best keepers in the world last year.
 
Kepa has 11 caps for Spain. Wasn’t in their last squad. He’s a talented keeper no doubt but mistake prone, and if Chelsea thought he was so good why did they go and get Mendy? Of the two his position is the most up for grabs, if Chelsea could shift him and his wages and recoup some of the astronomical transfer fee that is. Agreed Mendy is 29 and will be a mainstay. But maybe Baxter sees himself like Dean Henderson. Who knows basically? Baxter and him alone.

As I said, Kepa has improved a lot. As in, improved since Mendy arrived, and Tuchel has been manager. I don't think there's a spot in that squad for a Baxter.
