Read that Chelsea will beat us to Andrey Santos. Can’t wait for this to be wrong and laugh at the blue tears.
Depay link I think is utter bollocks, agent wants him to get a fat payday. Thuram is clearly a great option but will we win that race? Also leaves the budget for signing Bellingham.
Depay isn't agent talk, he wants to stay there till the summer. It's Barca trying to shoehorn him out to get some wedge. Not saying we've actually got an interest or even bid but I believe the agent will be doing what the player wants.
He’s the next Freddy Adu! I reckon we get Maddison and Thuram. We will sign one or two players I am certain.
Meh, another ****ing moron in a long line so desperate for the glamour they crap on their career. I’m guessing it’s just another agent balls up, he’ll be in, loaned out, disappear. Honestly how many times before these kids work out they should be moving to Brighton, Newcastle, and other clubs with a plan. Or with Ashworth in charge. Potter has clearly just got wind of this, knows Ashworth track record and used his glamour position to hijack a deal. It really ****ing irks me because it won’t work, Chelsea are as fundamentally a short term club as you can find. **** this kid, next time we see him will be on a list with Ekitike.
20 ms is almost double the fee nufc were preparing to pay. I personally don't care we'll sign someone else. Ffp is going to bite for a year or two now
Nah, we’re not that club anymore. Potter got wind and sent his heavy mob in to seal the deal. I hate it because Chelsea are faux-big, but on an international scale with the reputation will always be more appealing to us (for now). It’s irritating because their track record with player development is abysmal. When the best you’ve produced is Mason Mount, yet have let Salah, De Bruyne, and more go, something is wrong.
Anyone going to Chelsea must be mad. They get loaned out and Chelsea will have at least a manager a year so no stability at all. Howe is much better than Potter for a young players development. In time folk will see that.
A couple of more than interesting responses to questions about January from Howe today. .. thuram response was very interesting actually
