    One thing that's not lost on me is that if the owners bought us 10-15 years ago and tried to do the same thing they'd have loaded the club up with Reece Oxford, Josh McEachran, Royston Drenthe, Adnan Januzaj, Ibrahim Affelay, Macheda, Vanden Borre, Gio Dos Santos etc etc.

    Point being that it's really hard to predict ahead of time who's going to break through and become actual top class players. We are spending obscene amounts of money on so called talents while overlooking those we already have/had for free in our own academy. Fofana who we bought for £12 million for example is no better than Soonsup-Bell who we sold to Tottenham for pennies.

    Juan Nil reacted to cfr95 in Conor Gallagher   
    I think first of all it's fair to say no-one impressed last season. But Conor, in my opinion, showed more fight and spirit than almost anyone else in the squad. Secondly, who do you suggest we bring in as a rotation option to replace him who would cost us £20m (the fee you say we'll get for Conor), and be on the same low wages?

    Same goes for Hall, RLC, Chalobah, and hell even Ampadu and CHO - I think there's a failure amongst a lot of fans to recognise the role the academy plays in balancing out the squad. We've got PL quality players who cost us £0 (on the books) and are on pretty low wages. No one's claiming they should be starting 50 games a season for us, but they're all more than capable of filling in for injured players, making sub appearances, and being rotation options. Sometimes I think there's a bit of a grass is greener mindset, but it's just not true. Look at some of the backups we've had to deal with over the past decade: Drinkwater, Barkley, Zappacosta, Emerson, Batshuayi etc etc - all worse than our current crop of academy talent, and all on bloated wages which hinder us from signing the marquee players that can be the difference when challenging for titles.

    I think we have to buy into the long term, under Roman ‘Short termism, was the game, Sack-employ-rinse repeat, stop player power, us fans need to see a plan like Arteta at Arsenal, when he first set out they were Dogsh*te bad, look ok now, let’s enjoy a journey, we’ve become so accustomed to winning, it can get monotonous, I mean that by we are expected to win all the time, maybe a dose of realism not fantasy is needed, a reset and go for the fans…

    Not sure if Tuchel is really on "friendly terms" with Klopp or not.
    But I can tell you that I don't like Klopp at all.
    In Germany we have the nickname "camel" for him because his teeth are very similar when Klopp is in his usual outburst of rage.

    For the first time in his tenure Lampard has a fully fit squad to choose from, and that is due to the fact we have a great squad and he has rotated the squad well, he has to continue to give minutes to Azpillicueta, Jorginho, Giroud, Emerson, CHO as you can see how players from other clubs are picking up so many injuries, hopefully we can keep our players fit and we would be favourites for the title.
