Shak Posted August 4 Share Posted August 4 Guehi just ticks too many boxes. Good on the ball, adds the pace we lack, proven PL player and seems to resoundingly pass the "no dickheads" rule. Aside from bad injury luck, it's almost impossible to see him not being a resounding success here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are excellent (probably the best) at suffocating the life out of a team with possession football. It’s very effective but it does my head in. Just fucking go for the jugular, ramming speed. Thankfully that’s what Eddie wants us to do Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TRon Posted August 4 Share Posted August 4 35 minutes ago, The Prophet said: Here's one, would we rather have Thiaw at £35 million or Guehi at circa £60 million? Guehi if we can get the deal done, like others have said, he's already proven. But if it falls through would be more than happy with Thiaw as I feel we've done our homework on him and he'll be a good addition. Just think he might not be quite as good as Guehi, therefore the extra money would be well spent. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gazza ladra Posted August 4 Share Posted August 4 I don't get the Chalobah thing. He looked really good from what I saw last season, better than Badiashile. That was the tail end of the season when Chelsea were dreadfully good. Now they've got Tosin, who apparently stunk things up. Is Chalobah any good? He's 25 and just breaking through now. Haven't much in terms of rumours or a price tag. So selling Gallagher and Chalobah are both "pure profit" moves? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
khay Posted August 4 Share Posted August 4 He was good a few seasons back under tuchel I think. Then seems to have had a few injuries. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kanji Posted August 4 Share Posted August 4 Tomori clearly seems happy in Milan, no? And hasn’t made the same impact on England as Guehi, right or wrong. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomori really stood out when we faced them in the UCL. I shit myself anytime anyone got near him. Sensed danger two steps ahead of anyone on the field. If this goes through, we at least have the next big thing. Tomori is big four bound or even big club in Europe bound. AC Milan’s a stepping stone to him.

AC Milan’s a stepping stone to him. Yeah I’m basing my Tomori judgement on the games against us. Thought he was great. Also basing my judgement of Guehi on the games against us and the Euros. Thought he was very hit and miss after a very good first game. Thiaw only saw the once against us and remember very little about him TBH. Will definitely leave this one to the experts. With PSR a thing we can’t just discount the size of the fee not being important though. Hence I don’t want us to be getting our pants taken down by Palace off the back of a tournament. As he was going for less when he had 3yrs on his contract. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TRon Posted August 4 Share Posted August 4 I did say in my first post in this thread I would be wary of getting too excited about this deal because his agent might be using us to negotiate a fee then when Liverpool step in at the right price, he fucks off there. Not saying that's going to happen, but just let's not put all our eggs in one basket. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LiquidAK Posted August 4 Share Posted August 4 Would be really happy with this, was impressed by Guehi at the Euros, though can't say I watched a lot of him for Palace in the league. Perhaps most important is the message it will send to our rivals and other players we go for - we're here to compete for the best players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ornstein I feel pipes up when deal is getting rubber stamped with Romano following closely behind. The tweet read like a sales pitch to alert clubs.
