The Bonk Posted February 24, 2023 Share Posted February 24, 2023 28 minutes ago, WilliamPS said: Sterling hasn’t done much for his £££ Illustrates the problem of giving some players crazy money - the rest of the squad see it as a benchmark. Half the squad will look at Sterling and think I contribute more than him I want the same cash. Agreed, he's not been as good as he was at City, but probably shouldn't have gone to Chelsea in the first place (hindsight, 20/20, in all that). Sterling has far better pedigree than Mount, regardless of age, which got him to the absurd wage. 59 minutes ago, STM said: Fair points. I do agree with you in thinking Mount is a Howe player, but he's been first hand to the shitshow that is Chelsea and has that bias baked into his thinking. Reece-James and he both came through the academy, so I somewhat get where his head is at. Further emphasizes how terrible Chelsea are and have been for football. Fuck them.

Very similar to David Brooks who Eddie signed from Sheffield United perhaps ? Can see why we would be after him looks an intelligent footballer with good movement.

He’s starting to show his form but if they didn’t already try and sign him why would they now and as you say for more money. Maddison if we can get him seeds the ideal player with a number 6 to take us forward. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sushimonster85 Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 Think this Summer Maddison will be the main target for that creative/attacking midfielder role. The Paqueta bus has been and gone now. Saw someone mention Sesko, isn't he already signed up with someone else for a Summer move? Want to say its RB Leipzig in one of those 'definitely not dodgy..' Red Bull to Red Bull transfers.

There seems to have been too much background noise and reporting for him not to be one of the top targets for me. Seems exactly what we need etc. Only concern is a bit of a patchy injury record but I think he’d be an amazing signing. Him and Bruno working on the creative side with a number 6 sitting would be immense. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really rate him but just too much noise around it all for my liking. I also rate Harvey Barnes from that side and would not mind us looking at him..but all depends on top 6 I suppose.

The College Dropout Posted March 1, 2023 Share Posted March 1, 2023 Hard to believe that Barnes is 25 years old already. Him & Maddison would elevate the team. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's been a lot of discussion after the fact, that his agents led us to believe that he may well be available for a much lower price than he actually was. His stock has risen since, so it'll be a competitive market for him this summer and he may well go for a price that we don't fancy paying. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sushimonster85 Posted March 2, 2023 Share Posted March 2, 2023 (edited) It's not beyond the realms of possibility that they are monitoring Bruno. I'm sure most of the elite teams in Europe are. Its whether we'd even entertain an offer, and if he'd even be interested that are the actual questions. FWIW Real Madrid are the only team that scare me with Bruno. They still have huge pull, and I'm sure Bruno has mentioned that he used to follow them as a kid. Edited March 2, 2023 by sushimonster85 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would totally get Madrid looking at him and this is why I'm keen for us to extend his contract and bump his wages up massively. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
