    These are the signings that I like to see. 
    we not just building a team for this season, but building a squad for the next ten seasons 

    Yes, it looks that way especially when you consider all the exciting youngsters we are picking up.

  2. Looked a bit down in his interview so I went ahead and watched his 1st when he joined Chelsea. He seemed a little more upbeat ,does not smile much but bare in mind he just joined the champions of the prem at that time. 

    Here if anyone wants to see.

    A nice surprise. A really good signing.  On a side note Mason Mount has a England manager and a club manager who rates him very high by the looks of it.. Good player no doubt but a lot of it seems like blind faith, even the Chelsea fans seem puzzled by it.                                               

    Gareth ?

    And Nakamba is exactly why we need RLC.

    We just don’t need Barkley imo.

    Unless we sold one if them,bits not happening.

    I think you have to realise there are other key areas that need addressing and imo will be.

    Striker and left wing and central box to box midfielder, or someone who can fill more than one role.

    Imo we need cover at LW/ST and at DCM and Barkley doesn’t offer any of that. All he really does is slow down Ramsey’s development unless he is sent out on loan.

    Thats why I’d prefer RLC over Barkley but we also need a player like Sarr too.

    Dcm is covered by Doug and Nakamba.

    Not sure if the Review was supposed to be written like this but it's all good sure we can all have a laugh here all while knowing Luiz bossed the game once more:

     

    Played a little bit higher than usual knowing Nakamba was behind him. Played in a good ball to Davis moments after coming on and looked to dictate the play with Grealish. Looked classy and will take his starting shit back on Monday. Good again and gave Villa impetus.

    We bring him on toilet him control midfield and he dung good.

    I really hope this is not Steve Stride, why on earth would he want to tarnish his relationship with the fans by getting involved with this kind of shit.... It never ends well. 

    This is the same guy who said we are definitely not in for Traore. Basically full of shit.

    That's brilliant. You should give it a snappy name like Triangular Selling Scheme. 

    You should also record a presentation of this on vhs followed by a mass postal send out.

    His xG last season was 3.28. He scored 1 goal. So he either missed a couple of sitter along the way, or he took so many shots from poor positions that the total added up. That's not good obviously. And generally he was quite average. 

    However on the flip side, it was 1254 minutes. Who hasn't had a poor 1254 minutes in their career? I have at least 4 shit hours a day at work. 

    You go back before that and he is objectively 'good', with flashes of brilliant. At least statistically, he was one of the best players across the Netherlands and France between 2016 and 2018. Then something changed... It sounds like he was switched to RWB last season too, which wouldn't suit his profile at all. He's a forward. 

    I don't know which player we are gonna get, but I know there's a player in him. Chelsea thought the same when they sold him to Lyon, inserting a buy back clause and a sell on fee. 

    He just might be our version of Traoré, but our own Traoré, rather the previous Traoré.

    Out of interest @Villain4Life who would your choice be for a pacy lefty winger that’s available for fee we are looking at and potentially willing to join? 

    There is a decent winger for Werder, Rashica I believe his name is. 

    Not sure if we have been linked?
