Or he was bought as a pure insurance policy for Trippier initially with the view that if he got no game time we could loan him out and if he performs make a quick profit on him. It was almost a freak season last year how few defensive injuries we had.

Man U walking away from the Mount deal could set a precedent of teams not caving to these ridiculous price tags on players with 1 year left. Kind of hope we’ve spoken to Spurs and both teams stand their ground. Leicester will have to blink eventually, they aren’t negotiating from a position of strength, especially with us having got Tonali.

Ronnie Edwards from Peterborough linked for 7.5m. England youth international, highly rated. Other Prem teams mentioned in the race.

Any noise on Gnonto’s future?

just do ?? with your fingers and say ‘Tonali’

New Chelsea kit looks weird

I think there was one or two but I got the sense that a few just guessed that we might go for him after the Barella link faded. Think even a few on here may have suggested him too. I’m sort of thinking that Edwards got told we were after an Italian CM from one of the Milan clubs and just guessed the wrong player

It’s done and dusted he just won’t stop crying long enough to do the official photos.

That a real account?

Di Maria returning to Benfica

Had a strong season for Villarreal, 15 in 35 so could be half decent. Was meant to sign for Bournemouth in Jan but failed his medical. Chelsea are paying £12m more than Bournemouth were.

Big Joe is just out of shot putting a shark in a headlock

Born and raised in the UK isn’t he?

Never forget

Feels like we take player adaptation very seriously these days. They’ll have a small team of people helping them acclimatise. Would be a bigger issue if the club was still chaotic. Once he realises what a professional outfit the club is he’ll be fine.

If anything, like Gordon, he may actually benefit from getting away from being the home town hero. You become the lightening rod for everything good and bad lots of additional pressure you don’t need.

Except they are dealing with Man United who aren’t exactly known for their savvy negotiating. They paid £90m for a one footed Antony, after all. Levy got burnt overpaying for Richarlison and is probably loathe to make the same mistake again.

I did a full version of that song a while back and it got completely ignored The “Eats Spaghetti, Drinks Moretti, Oh Sandro Tonali” which got posted a bit earlier is the only one simple enough to catch on.

That is 100% the chant that is catching on

Record sale for AC Milan and also makes him the most expensive Italian player ever. We are massive.

To be fair to them they went on to say how much Eddie improves and maximises players which is one of the biggest things with this transfer.

Is Horncastle considered a tier 1 source after this then?
