Other clubs' transfers


Recommended Posts

Of all the players being linked so far think Mudryk is the only one who’d I be really envious of going to Arsenal. Clearly Enzo would have been a real coup but looks like that’s dead until the summer.

 

It used to be said that the well ran clubs stayed well clear of January, so whilst I’d love a splash I can’t say im to concerned as things stand.

 

Think we’ve got our targets and unless they become available or there’s an injury crisis we could be quiet this month.

Boehly has stood down today as their director of football and handed the reigns to Winstanley and Vivell from Red Bull.

 

Think Winstanley played a big part in Brightons recruitment mind, for all we’re happy to have Ashton this bloke cleared played a big part.

 

‘Chelsea is pleased to announce that Paul Winstanley has been appointed to the role of Director of Global Talent and Transfers. Winstanley arrives at Stamford Bridge after eight years with Brighton & Hove Albion, initially as talent identification manager and then as head of recruitment’.

Didn't Potter bring all his scouts over with him from Brighton to Chelsea? So he's either more say than people are thinking or they're being ignored.

 

Don't have alot of sympathy for him as he knew what he was getting involved with at Chelsea anyway. Don't blame him for taking the gig either mind but he can't have a lot of complaints.

Wasn’t all this done in Sept/October?

Doubt the price would be more than Maddison, with coming from the Dutch league and not being a full international? Gakpo was ‘only’ £35m. 

Yep you're right. Thought he was in Germany for some reason. Spuds were told 40m in the summer.

Aye but loads of articles that’s he’s stood down as sporting director today. Might just be window dressing no idea, but their pursuit of Fernandez hasn’t been a good look.

I get that competition for places is a good thing but if you’re a midfielder at Chelsea you must be thinking, ‘I’m not trusted as they’re looking at bringing in multiple players that can play my position’. Pretty destabilising to be interested in multiple players across the midfield when they already have loads. Hope they spend a fortune and still finish 8th

As Ashworth said in an interview, their entire setup revolves around having backup plans in place and nobody being irreplaceable.

Well aye, it still can't be easy to replace this many people within just a year. At some point the replacements run out.

Never made an offensive comment in your life?

Obviously. But not to get a cheap laugh from casual racism. FA thought it was worthy of a ban and £50k fine also.

Nailing my cock to the block and saying he’ll be a failure.

 

Seems a throwback to when they loaned the likes of Maniche and Quaresma.
