Disco Posted December 11, 2022 Share Posted December 11, 2022 Pulisic’s way too injury prone and gives off a huge feeling of carrying on like Michael Owen when it comes to playing club games over playing for QSA. Not to mention his entourage are bad news and enjoy attacking his teammates and coaches if he’s not getting minutes. For the likely huge amount price and wages wise he’d cost and whilst he’d be decent I think we could be wiser. He does need to get out of Chelsea though, was always going to be a poor move.

A CM to help push Bruno forward in time and a winger to add to our relatively poor numbers in that position aye. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 PIF and the rest of the owners must be thinking of this sort of thing to get around FFP in the future surely. Sign a player for their B club and send them to the A club on loan. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sushimonster85 Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 Don't want to be a downer, but there's no way Felix happens. Both us and Villa being used as bait to draw out other offers. Don't get me wrong, we're only a season or two away from being in a position to have multiple players in the squad on £200k a week (Bruno is bound to be the first when his contract is extended in 2023), but we're not quite there yet.

Yorkie Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 This Felix stuff is so transparent, like. Not a chance we're going anywhere near him. I also think Pulisic is a bit unlikely because there'll be dozens of teams interested and I don't understand why Chelsea would want to improve us. Of the recent links that Marcus Thuram seems a lot more likely. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
