I am sure he is improving his money and I expect he thinks our current number 1 is on a level that he can comfortably compete with. He is also not really 2nd choice at Brighton, they have signed a new keeper from Belgium I think for around £20m. I expect the new keeper and Steele will be battling it out for that position You have dug yourself a funny hole. he stepping up from a club in Europe to a club with European football, Brighton bring in a new keeper for £20m and relegates Sanchez to No 3 and now TBSD are prepared to pay more for Brightons No 3 who you say thinks he is better than Kepa. Wow time to move on. Edited August 4, 2023 by ROTG Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow time to move on. So I dig myself a hole by telling you things you were not actually aware of 😂 ok then I’ve never actually proclaimed him to be better than Kepa. I said he is a better shot stopper imo. I’ve dug no hole despite your attempts to try and fabricate one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post exiledblue Posted August 5, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted August 5, 2023 Maybe we have put together a good squad, maybe poch has what he wants but there have been too many transfers and I don't know who 80% of them are. Watching the friendlies recently it felt like I was watching someone else's team. Forever Chelsea, I hope Poch knows what he is doing so I can know what I am doing 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Floyd25 Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 (edited) Potnetially Olise coming in would make it five wingers if Nkunku is to play left wing, plenty of competition for places and Sterling is really going to have to step up if he wants to start games. I guess it would also confirm Gabriel and Morreira for loan moves, we seem a bit overstocked in this position all of a sudden, considering Maatsen is likely to play on the wing as well.

Change is never easy but this could be the start of something good. Sir Roman will always be the greatest imo though. 😉 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a nice walk through the forest and works up and good appetite! A Maas and a 'haxe never tasted better. Their Bockbiers are lovely drops but a bit too heavy for a daily tipple. The Helles fills that spot for me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Blood Is Blue Posted August 5, 2023 Author Share Posted August 5, 2023 Lewis Hall to Palace on loan is getting reported in a few places now. I think that’ll be a good move for him, premiership experience under a very experienced manager, although I fear a bit for Palace this season, so hopefully he doesn’t end up in a relegation battle. It’ll be interesting to see what position he plays when out on loan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have never seen a brazilian player doing extremely well in the premier league. It must be connected with the weather, I have a theory that the same player in Spain or Italy will do far better than England. Some flowers are not meant to be groomed in a rainy places.

It’s not a bad team and some other decent players that aren’t in that team (eg. Willian), however, I do know where you’re coming from. For such a big footballing nation, the number of Brazilian players that have played in England during the peak of their career is small. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would have to guess it'll be in midfield because Palace have Tyrick Mitchell at LB already. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex, Oscar, Alison, Beletti..... You're right, not many elite Brazilian players have played here in their peak, so doesn't necessarily provide an accurate reflection of whether someone will or will not succeed. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Original 21 Posted August 5, 2023 Share Posted August 5, 2023 So I have a day off then log on to Twitter, or ‘X’ as it’s called now, and it appears that: Kudus is going to Brighton. We’re about to splurge £95m on Caicedo. We’re going to trigger Tyler Adams’ £20m release clause. Have bid 25m for Olise, even though he’s out injured. Still thinking about swapping Lukaku for Vlahovic. Ziyech is still a Chelsea player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
