Mitrovic gets slaughtered on here for scoring 9 goals in the PL aged 20/21 yet you can just bet it’s the same ones saying JP is only 20 when his PL goal record of 3 goals is mentioned Can you? You're literally just twisting things to suit your view like. Mitrovic also played for Fulham in the prem at a later age which will effect people's view of him. Harshly judging a 20 year olds record is obviously silly either way. Edited August 16, 2022 by Hanshithispantz Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If I was sad enough I’d look but I’m not but I do vaguely remember. it’s not silly when we need goals If Wilson gets injured which is the point of the signing Edited August 16, 2022 by gdm Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hanshithispantz Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 But even so Motrovic has had another 3 seasons or so to be judged on in the Premiership, Pedro is still 20. I've always really liked Mitro but I don't see how anyones opinions on him are relevant here? Plenty of examples of players 20/21 scoring nowt then suddenly hitting 10-15 in a breakthrough season.

Im talking about around the time he left. Not currently.

Lotus Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 If this guy only plays as a CF, why are bidding for him and Ramos (also only really a CF) at the same time?

Guest reefatoon Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 Because we are so amateurish, we have no plan, we just keep low balling for rubbish players that are like Wood, when we should be signing loads of players. This has been the worst transfer window EVER. I am so fed up and sick of it all, just wish it was over. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Help me out here, which players have Chelsea had confirmed bids for, same players at the same time? Not ‘links’ actual confirmed bids. Not trying to start a row, genuinely wondering.

Hanshithispantz Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 I mean I do get people wanting us to make great signings and being disappointed if we don't, I just don't see where people are coming from with their disappointment of Joao Pedro, other than his goal record at a young age I cannot see what they're basing their disappointment off? The fact we didn't go for Dennis or Cornet despite their relatively low fees should be a decent indicator that anyone we are going for is a very high target we'll know a lot about.

mighty__mag Posted August 16, 2022 Share Posted August 16, 2022 He's a great young player, around the time Watford signed him there were a lot of interested parties. Find it unusual though he's not been capped by Brazil at any level according to his wiki Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As another poster said before, some people are being blinded by the romance of the takeover. I’m sure everyone is happy with AS and MG and the direction of the club. I know I am. It’s chalk and cheese. I’m totally into football again. Doesn’t mean the new team are incapable of making a misstep though. And while that’s easy to agree with ‘in theory’ peeps can be unwilling to actually call out a fuck up for what it is seen as going against the crowd. Pope - good Burn - good Trippier - good (since injury, very good before) Targett - good Bruno - very good Wood - awful rest of forwards recruitment strategy - appears disjointed and puzzling Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
