TRon Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 do we have a realistic figure to by him? Can't imagine what it will be now, especially after MOTD did a highlights package on how he has transformed us. Chelsea struggling doesn't help. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Howaythetoon Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 My worry is a new Chelsea manager wanting to take a look at him and again of Pardew gets it, he’ll take him back just to spite us and play him defensive central midfield or something. Or keep bringing him on for a CF at LB with 20 to go. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twinport53 Posted April 14, 2018 Share Posted April 14, 2018 If Pards got the Chelsea gig he'd probably want Diame aswell. But il not be happy if we take anything less than the 15mil we paid. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

toontownman Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 Isn't Dubravka already sorted with a clause to buy? Or did I Giggs? Expect Kennedy to go elsewhere this summer but has been a class loan signing and another reason we shouldn't always ignore this route to strengthening the squad. If the bigger champions league clubs are in for him he will be gone. If not, we are likely in with a shot as he clearly likes it here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted April 15, 2018 Share Posted April 15, 2018 Been equally as impressed with his attitude as his skill. He seems to have really bought into the rest of the squad's ethos, for now at least. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, apparently Dubrakva is sorted, somewhere between 4-5million from memory. And I agree re Kenedy, as he has certainly impressed and caught the eye of many. You'd hope Rafa is in there trying to sign him up now (isn't he buddies with Abramovich?) but, of course, it's not him signing the cheques... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianovthetoon Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 How many of the Champions League Clubs would he be a starter at? At least with us he has a chance to be an integral part of a team on the up, something I’m sure Rafa will be emphasising to him. I think we still have a chance to sign him.....

hakka Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 Can understand if his head gets turned by a CL club, but for his own development he needs games. Being here is perfect for him as he will get games and he has Rafa as his mentor. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Menace Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 Sell Selz+Darlow, should be enough to get Dubravka in. I can see Kenedy opting to stay with us tbh, Rafa will make him a world beater and lord knows what he is like under a team that doesn't play to his strengths.

pinkeye Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 Kennedy and Slimani together for that last 25 mins yesterday looked class.... Their link up play and movement to play off each other was outstanding. If only we could sign them both.... Kennedy ran himself into the ground yesterday as well, no doubt that he enjoys playing for us and has bought into this teams incredible work ethic. Also unsurprising that he is catching the eye of bigger clubs with a willingness to spend money.... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 We can sign both, and we probably should (or at least try to). Those two plus Dubravka likely won’t cost more than £45m, which is about what we spent this season on transfers and loan fees. Surely we’ll have more to spend next season. Right? We will, right?

At least with us he has a chance to be an integral part of a team on the up, something I’m sure Rafa will be emphasising to him. I think we still have a chance to sign him..... His contract expires in 2020 (?) but I'd expect Chelsea to try and load the kid's pockets (assume he has an agent now) with a fresh contract offer this Summer. It's what they have done with other starlets (who are on the loan merry-go-round). Loftus-Cheek is a cautionary tale - big on talent, a physical specimen too, whose career is being flushed down the shitter so far, because there's been little continuity in his development. If he's signed to a new deal that would push him out of Ashley's price range imho. Reckon he'd be a hit in Germany, not at Bayern though - thinking just a rung below them ie. Schalke or Dortmund. In his boots, I'd only consider a permanent move here if Rafa's future wasn't uncertain (which I believe is tied in with Ashley selling/fucking off this Summer).

xLiaaamx Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 I'd be happy with the sensible move of him returning here on another season long loan for now. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STM Posted April 16, 2018 Share Posted April 16, 2018 I wouldn't like him using the club as a stepping stone but it might not be the worst for all parties. If he was a success here, his value will double. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kimbo Posted April 19, 2018 Share Posted April 19, 2018 Sounds like David Luiz is angling for a move to me. ‘I spoke with him before he left in January and told him he would love Newcastle,’ says Luiz. ‘I told him about the great support and atmosphere. Now he is in love. I am not surprised. ‘Rafa Benitez is also a great friend of mine. I told Kenedy that he would find a special coach, a special person who would improve him as a player and also as a man. I told him he is in good hands.’ Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
