It's mental gymnastics... If nufc had signed raphina etc you'd be loving it, but because it's Chelsea you've somehow convinced yourself they've paid 60 million for Jacob Murphy
I don’t like him: he is a good player but 60m plus. Wow!Raphina is class
They have so many players in that kind of position that currently don’t perform.I just think there's a difference playing for the current Newcastle lot (like Villa, or Leeds, or Wolves) and a top 4 side. There is a strictness about it, a cold professionalism that not everyone responds to. He's no longer idolised, he's just another winger at Chelsea, some players just don't respond to it.
I think at Newcastle, where he would be a main man duo with ASM, he'd enjoy himself more and players like him - I think - work better being free. Not saying he'd only thrive at Newcastle, that would be myopic, but if he'd gone to, say, Villa I'd be thinking "****, they really are getting serious". And I'm not singling out Chelsea, but for me he's probably going to have a Grealish season.
It happens a lot - Grealish hardly stood out, Sancho was poor, Werner and Lukaku both struggled, Ziyech, Ferran Torres, Bergwijn, etc.

Surely Chelsea must be releasing some players to accommodate him.

We paid 25 for Chris Wood . Prices are high that's the reality
Never heard of him but if he scores goals that's good. Goalscorers need to score lots of goals.

Christ alive, put it like that £60m is a bargain.
There's always someone who wants to spit on your chips.His record at Rotherham was decent, I'll give you that. However he did retire at 27 and died 6 years ago, so I'm not sure he fits the profile we're looking for.

Willems, Janmat and Gini were alright to be fair
Given that he was another one i suggested back in 2021 (along with Botman) I'm obviously now expecting this to happen.
It ok peeps, just go google him and you'll see.



He's just a class player mate.. Can score pass and is quick. Max is dog **** in comparison.
I think he'll thrive at Chelsea
