I'd genuinely love Tierney here.

Still only 25 I think with endless european experience.

Emery signed him and played him regularly for Arsenal and you'd think he'll win the league there and look to move to side to play every week so he'd be a good fit for where we're going I reckon.

People want more quick players in our side, him putting the after burners on and leaving Dani Carvajal in his wake shows what he's about and he can defend fine aswell.

Great player, it's the injuries that is the issues, probably would still be starting in that arsenal team only for it

Represents the club so we'll, even just watching him lead England u21s out and talking to mascot who is young blind girl, just gives you the impression that he is pure class on and off the pitch

I don't think Chelsea pay the big bucks we all think they do. All of these winter arrivals im told are typically on 90-100k. Not the mega money you might expect 

That is true of mudryk and fofana, cucurella not far off double that but then you have Enzo , Sterling, Koulibaly all over 300k per week

Not sure if this is an issue in UK but here in Ireland, we have these groups of cyclists that cycle side by side and block the traffic on mostly rural roads, they hold up traffic and refuse to let cars past. These are never general cyclists but always the people dressed like they are in the tour de france.

Mason Mount reportedly on his way out of Chelsea in the summer. Any takers?

Chelsea are not willing to meet his wage demands. Really think about that question again and if ya think it's still a real question fire again (just f-ing with ya before ya lose it with me)

How we playing? Missing this one

Conor Hourihane was completely one footed and premier league was a step too far for his ability, this is pretty much the same situation. The whole us not playing to his strengths is a myth

It wasn’t a penalty. VAR should be over ruling that and West Ham player booked.

I did say penalty aside, I think it was harsh aswel

Are you serious? He didn’t do anything ! 
 

Some of our fans. 

Penalty aside you are correct, he didn't do anything. 

I've never seen a player so uncomfortable taking the ball with his back to goal, he can't turn, has to pass it backwards to turn around

Slightly off topic but his stable mate from Craig Butlers Phoenix Academy  ( Dujuan Whisper) , highly rated striker/forward has signed for Chelsea.

Hopefully it means Craig will have some one else to harass and take some pressure off Leon .

Exactly bring his Circus towards London then

Bailey is really struggling tbh. He did well for the McGinn chance but generally his play is way to inconsistent. 
 

A wide forward will be a priority in the summer. 

He did something for that chance that he rarely dose, he took his man on , on the outside. He is normally predictable, cuts in on his good foot nearly every time

Understand what you're trying to say, however in fairness, these are totally different calibre of player we are talking about here.

The positions they play make a big difference as well.

Were they both ACL injuries? Would be concerning if so , the bigger guys reall struggle to recover, follow Munster in the rugby and having similar issues with one of our south African second rows, been nearly 2 years sidelined at this stage

Back up goalkeeper 

CB under the age of 25

Possibly a right back because it's seems like Emery doesn't rate Cash

Left winger, right winger

CF

Think that's what we need

Please never have him and Bailey on the pitch at same time, think my head might explode 

Very disappointed if nothing happens but saying that I'm glad we are not bringing players in for the sake of it. We have enough in this squad to stay up without any issues. We would have to invest a lot of money to have a real shot at European football. So I guess it's just a matter of Emery looking at what we have and identifying our biggest issues come the summer window

Osorio would be such an exciting signing. Let’s bring more young South American starlets in!

Great episode of For the love of paul McGrath podcast where he talks about him

I thought he was excellent in the world cup but less impressive for Chelsea. If people are happy for us to get deulofeu but are unhappy with the prospect of this one I dont get it. 

One has done it in premier league and current form is decent, the other has barley kicked a ball

I'd prefer not take any of Chelsea's rejects, they have created a serious problem with the size of their squad and don't want us to help them out at all

The links are nonsense I’m sure, but would anyone take Anthony Gordon?

Everton fans seem to hate the guy, can't say I've seen much of him myself

Was definitely a foul. Var made it look less serious. Ramsey got caught in his ankle and big shove in the back from a big bastard. He was in position to clear the ball without the shove. 

Need to look at it again so later, thought it was for the shove

Take that, I'd be fair annoyed if I was Southampton fan, really got away with that VAR decision, never a foul

For me sterling is very similar to bailey, he has a run of games where he is brilliant and then he goes on a run of form where he is dreadful, don't think he is what we need right now.

28 years old sounds like he still has a lot of time left in him but players like him that bursts onto the scene playing at high level so young seem to get old very fast
