The Prophet Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 Just now, SUPERTOON said: I should have said having sellable players (not talking about anyone here post takeover). We could sell our unwanted players and struggle to get 20 million for the lot. Our rivals can sell their unwanted players for relative big money and reinvest on better players. It’s not a criticism of the club, more on Ashley who left us in this position. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

brummie Posted July 12, 2023 Share Posted July 12, 2023 Everton will never, ever learn when it comes to signing Man United cast offs. Although I think Ashley Young is a good signing, and I'd have kept him here personally, I honestly think that, on the links so far, I reckon they're fucked this season. They remind me of us in the years prior to our relegation, they absolutely stink of death. Who is going to be scoring goals for them next season, for example?

Viana Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 2 hours ago, kocunar said: Ngl the Saudi League is starting to look fire The range of star players is going to make it a relatively unique situation. The struggle they'll have to overcome is poor crowds and making sure the marketing is good. They've distance themselves from the 'retirement league' jibes with certain signings, but they do actually need to make the games entertaining.

ponsaelius Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 It might not seem it because of how much they spent last year but I think Chelsea are actually cutting cloth accordingly. They're refusing to re-sign top players like Mount on 300k a week and instead signing younger players on cheaper wages on long contracts. It's a fundamental change in model compared to the last 20 years. I think there's a big question whether they become title contenders again or whether they just become a club that buys and sells but doesn't win titles.

GeordieDazzler Posted July 13, 2023 Share Posted July 13, 2023 They’ve signed some good players but I look at that Chelsea squad it doesn’t exactly fill me with fear. Not exactly packed with Prem experience, your main continuity players are two injury prone full backs and a centre half who will be close to 40 at the start of next season. Strike force is currently two young unproven players one having a half decent season with Villarreal and the other having missed an entire season with a ACL injury. You presume Lukaku and Auba will be peddled. Caicedo is good but his price and hype seems to be inflated way beyond anything realistic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
