Got better in a different system under a different manager at a different club. The club who plays a system to suit Elanga. 100% spot on Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sibierski Posted Monday at 20:31 Share Posted Monday at 20:31 Same as last summer, Madueke is the one I want. And unlike last summer, he’s actually going to be more attainable since Chelsea are targeting yet another winger (and all the talk is they are doubling down on Neto). Progresses the ball extremely well. Can retain it high up the pitch. Both footed. Still got a ceiling to tap into as he becomes more mature as a footballer. £35m for him. £45m on a CB. £25m on a GK. DCL on a free :/ Then a blow out on a CM after we move on Longstaff. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jesse Pinkman Posted Monday at 20:32 Share Posted Monday at 20:32 Luke Edwards has been stinking the gaff out since that Barella story dropped in 2023. Pulling out all the stops to get everything he says wrong. Very funny I must say. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shearergol Posted Monday at 20:37 Share Posted Monday at 20:37 Well I for one will not get excited about replacing jacob Murphy with a £50m+ faster version We’ll see exactly the same issues we’ve seen for two years, but with a quicker player.

Smal Posted Monday at 20:38 Share Posted Monday at 20:38 think we have to evolve into a better team than one that fits Elanga to be honest. He's a pure counter attack forward. We are a CL side now - we need players who can do things against teams sat in a a low block. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crimson Cardigan Posted Monday at 20:40 Share Posted Monday at 20:40 It’s a bit dispiriting that we can’t sign a player as soon as a cartel club make a bid, no matter how dogshit they are. not sure where we go from here, but shopping domestically for a premier league player whose had a good season seems to be beyond us.

Andy84 Posted Monday at 20:51 Share Posted Monday at 20:51 I don’t think we were ever serious about Delap. Sure Mbuemo was on the list but let’s be positive - I think we’re going to see some interesting names drop soon. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
