Dr Gloom 23419 Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 The other thing he’ll want is guaranteed first team football with the World Cup coming up. Can we promise he would start ahead of Wilson? Not for me like. And that’s before you work out how you get around his £270k a week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wykikitoon 22600 Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 With the WC are we going to get someone better than Wilson at a price that we want to pay? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Different to Wilson and on the trajectory to be better is what I'm expecting. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they want an up and coming forward in the ekitike mould to compete with Wilson rather than a Billy big bollocks on massive wedge who will expect to start every game. I can see them dropping more money on a right winger/creative midfielder 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Isegrim 10295 Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 6 hours ago, Billy Whitehurst said: I live close to Stamford Bridge so, for one reason or another, tend to get quite a few Chelsea tickets (they’re a really fucking horrible bunch). Probably been 12/15 times over the last 2 seasons and I’ve yet to see Werner have a good game. As people have said, he had good stats in Germany, so it might just be Tuchel’s system, but he finishes like Jacob Murphy and has a poorer grasp of the offside rule than Papiss Cisse. He’s hit and miss. Mostly miss tbh. He had some great spells in the past when he got on incredible scoring runs and looked world class at times. Unfortunately he looks more often to be Ali Dia than George Weah. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Gloom 23419 Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 I wouldn’t be surprised if we fail to sign anyone else until the window is about to close and we go a few games into the new season with the current squad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kid Dynamite 7567 Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 Max Cornet. 25years old. 50 goals in 250 games for Lyon. 9 goals in a relegated team last season. £17.5mil release clause. Plays as CF or LW. Id have him as back up to Wilson, or if we get a decent offer for ASM then replace him and chuck the leftover cash into the transfer budget Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Gloom 23419 Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 Feels like a plan d or e option but perhaps we’re getting closer to having to make that type of signing - unless this loan changes the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PaddockLad 18890 Posted July 27, 2022 Share Posted July 27, 2022 If McNeil is off to the scouse mackems does that mean their jumped up half decent Orc lookalike is leaving?

The Fish 11311 Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 I still want Sesko and given we've just taken out a big loan, I'd expect that to be made available for a transfer for or two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polarboy 2317 Posted July 28, 2022 Share Posted July 28, 2022 Yeah what is the story with this 140m? Am I right in thinking we don't just have an extra 140m to spend, and it's been used to cover the business we've already done this summer, and any we still hope to do. That would mean we still have 80m, but then perhaps agents fees, wages etc still need to be accounted for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope I'm wrong, but I just can't see us spending 200m this summer after spending close to 100m in January. Plus it's not like getting a 140m loan is like heading to your bank on a Friday to get an overdraft. We're only hearing about this loan now, but it's likely it was negotiated some time ago. The problem is that details on the loan appear to light, so I'm making a lot of assumptions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
