Bertrand Traore started in the UCL play off game for Ajax away at a Russian side. http://www.bbc.com/sport/football/37158819 New Barca keeper was between the sticks for Ajax. Conceded first 3 goals through set piece. Awful. Traore didn't have much to do tbh. Hope he thumps Money bags in the Europa
Ake was used as a sub for last 3 mins and Bournemouth conceded a goal in final min Tammy Abraham continues his terrific scoring record for Bristol City
Looks like Bamford will head to Burnley before the window closes. Could be better than his last two experiences as they like two up front so he should get more of an opportunity to impress. Atsu to Newcastle, although they've got a big squad and he's so injury prone I can't even see him featuring that much. Pasalic to Milan, done well so far in La Liga and at Monaco so hopefully he keeps impressing. Think he's quite injury prone too though.
What is up with Kenedy?? Hope Conte utilizes Kenedy, Ruben et al efficiently if no proper loan is setup.
Kennedy to Watford, Remy to Palace, confirmation Bamford to Burnley. CFC have a larger export quota than a lot of small nations.
38 players loaned out now, a new record apparently. Quite a few on deadline day. Colkett and Clarke Salter to Bristol Rovers. Miazga to Vitesse, Piazon to Fulham and Cuadrado to Juve. Think that's them all....
Crazy but it's obviously a model we are using to generate income. Only a handful of these will ever get first team action. I don't really count Cuadrado as a loan either. He'll never come back. It's basically a signing over 3 years until his contract expires. Like it was with Torres.
Yup, it is nuts, but its not illegal and the youngsters seem to be going for it. We are providing a lot of cheap players for teams down in the lower leagues too. See if they perform well at other clubs, let their value bump up, then stick em in our squad if they make the cut, flog em if they dont.
Exactly. Little surprised 1 or 2 didn't end up at Villa given the Clarke and RDM connection. Bamford and Kalas in particular would have done well there you'd think.
Ake fails to make the 18 for Bournemouth thanks to Wilshere. http://weaintgotnohistory.sbnation.com/2016/9/12/12885530/chelsea-loan-round-up
Looks like he may be a keeper that one. Averaging more than a goal a game. I know its only at Bristol, but if he can even keep half of that up in the PL, then he will be a keeper.
yes - he just needs to put on some weight and hope we give him a decent run in the first team. No senseless bids for Tony Griezmann.
Thorgan Hazard - buy back clause before this season is 15M Euros This should be straight forward isn't it like Alvaro Morata? Bring younger Hazard back for 15M Euros and even if we cannot fit him in, we can sell him for more than 15M Euros isn't it?
from the EFL cup.. Piazon put Cottagers 1-0 against Bristol City. In the dying mins 'Tiger Tiger buring bright' scored yet another winner for Bristol City 1-2 and through to next round. Hope Jose meets Tammy next up
Tammy Abraham at it again. Scores another against Cottagers this time in league to give Bristol City 0-1 lead.
