Cherki is available for 13m or so. quite a few bargains available to improve the squad. Expand Yes. This is because you must buy abroad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand No - I actually like the Will Osula purchase, it's promise of that ilk I meant, that sort of price range with a high upside, Rowe is also around there or thereabouts also from the Championship Not necessarily abroad for the sake of sexy names. But Guehi for 70m vs Milenkovic or Hujisen at 13m - I would choose the latter as it's boxing smart. Guehi is great but in a time where our limits are constrained, Guehi isn't 45m better (and the potential risk and difficulty it would cause us down the line to get other positions filled). Remember, Schar is already first team, Botman is coming back in a few months and Lascelles beyond that. Next summer or this January coming up they can scour and get the right game changer if available - e.g contract winding down etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stottie Posted August 25, 2024 Share Posted August 25, 2024 DCL strikes me as very similar to the Callum Wilson we bought, who has since improved. With Trippier the other way, yeah, could be very good business. As for Chelsea, the presence of so many unsellable players may mean they don't get to keep to some of the others they actually want.

Willow Posted August 25, 2024 Share Posted August 25, 2024 (edited) Dare I say it, I'd actually stick Miggy on for Murphy.
