Max Fowler Posted August 30 Share Posted August 30 50 minutes ago, NoblyBobly said: Is your opinion on Felix based on his loan period with us? We were a shambles of a club then. This line up for forwards is excellent. He’s not a starter every game but an important squad player. He will do well. Partly, but also based on the fact simeone doesn’t trust him. Felix is clearly a mental lightweight challenge ducker who goes missing when the going gets tough. Way prefer Neto than Felix the bottle merchant.

But wait for Arsenal or Liverpool to steal Osi. Sancho would be such a strange move if we still have Sterling AND Mudryk on our books. I can only presume a transfer ban is imminent for us, which is why they would still go ahead and try and bring him in before getting anyone out.

Ham Posted August 30 Share Posted August 30 Despite the face fillers, ridiculous new teeth and the Botox, Jamie Redknapp is looking more and more like his dad every day. A lesson in futility. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s not his job or skill set to go flying in with challenges. I want him to work hard, press when asked, but mostly to move the ball quick from back to front, be creative and create opportunities for others, score some goals and generally look like he wants to be here. I don’t expect him to be the first name on the teamsheet but I expect a lot of mins. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
My Blood Is Blue Posted August 30 Author Share Posted August 30 Sky Sports flipping back to it being unlikely we'll get Osimhen due to his wages. I expect the move will be on and off again before we know what's actually going to happen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sciatika Posted August 30 Share Posted August 30 (edited) Apparently, Arsenal's new signing, Merino, fractured a shoulder or arm while doing his first training session and will be out for a long time. Isn't Merino a kind of sheep used for its fine wool? Edited August 30 by Sciatika 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Blood Is Blue Posted August 30 Author Share Posted August 30 https://www.chelseafc.com/en/news/article/djordje-petrovic-completes-loan-switch Really strange one to me, after last season that Sanchez would be moved back to number 1 and we'd move Petrovic on. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DannyLB Posted August 30 Share Posted August 30 Not strange to me. Petrovic wasn’t that good for us last season and he’s not a ball playing goalie either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My Blood Is Blue Posted August 30 Author Share Posted August 30 Sky Sports latest is that Osimhen is unlikely to happen and seems like he'll be off to Saudi, where he apparently doesn't have to pay tax (I did not know that, that is mad!) and the most likely signing for us is Sancho. I don't think we'll end up with either now and I don't think we'll be moving on Sterling, Chilwell or Chalobah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DannyLB Posted August 30 Share Posted August 30 I’m ok with Sancho coming here. Speaks a lot that he’s willing to forego his fat contract for a better sporting environment. Having Madueke, Neto and Mudryk as our only wing options is not ideal when Neto is known to be injury prone and Mudryk….well, do we really want him to feature much? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Something like 50% holding tax until you complete two years in the country. Like all other countries you can only allowed so many days per year out of the country to qualify 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DannyLB Posted August 30 Share Posted August 30 We’re definitely not shifting Chilwell and it wouldn’t surprise me if he’s adopted the “outlast the manager” strategy which, given us, is typically not the worst idea. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be really surprised (but also not) that they're going to do it before getting Sterling sold and his wages off the books. It means Mudryk would surely get very minimal game time as well, which is fine from our POV, but it's another player just sitting around doing not a lot while picking up a decent wage.

It's fair comment - with transfer ban on it's way these "loan with obligation to buy" deals for Sancho and Osimhen gets us around that to a degree (Kovacic-esque).
