About the defending being instinctual, I somewhat agree. Certainly when you're in the midst of the play, but when you're more of a sweeper (my position), you tend to be analysing the game more, looking at where there's space, which opponents are particularly quick, etc.

Seems a 25mil bid has been officially made. Would be a good signing if you ask me. Price not too much, good option for RWB, can cover for other positions in case of injuries, and adds to the homegrown quota. And he's a good player.

Way to go all apocalyptic. Mark my words, sounds like a threat from a dying man. We do this nearly every year, bitch about every signing made/not made.

Seems the swap deal is bullocks, and that the transfer will go through within the next couple of days for 22Mil. Personally, I think this is a good signing, solid wing-back and I trust conte. Lets not forget our scepticism towards Alonso and moses, and look how that turned out.

I agree, at least move it away from rumours, it's not a rumour anymore, whether people like it or not, he's gone

Personally think he'd be a good signing, no Sandro, but still don't understand all the negativity surrounding him

Will definitely be an interesting signing, and I think he'll do well, but I have also been wrong, his champions league record though seems very good, and he'll be surrounded be a string of good players which will definitely help

And aubameyang ones

We often talk about who is rumored, but which positions do you feel we need backup in? Got any suggestions? Do we need an alternative to Alonso? What about Moses? With Matic probably leaving do we need another player aside from Bakayoko?

sh*t had me cracking up

Cheers mate, I'll give her a call

Wenger had about as much of a chance of signing mbappe as me sleeping with scarlett johansson, we both like it to happen, but no chance

Hella pleased about this, hope we can get some decent wingbacks, then this will be a successful transfer window in my opinion

Pretty much my reaction exactly, except I started dancing (never doing that again)

That's a bit of a stretch, I mean he was ok, but even Oscar Pistorius would link up well with Ronaldo

And benzema has marketing potential, who's got a benzema shirt?

I think an issue is that we've never really seen him play in any other style, though if conte can make Alonso and moses into title winners, he's gotta see something. But you're absolutely right

That genuinely had me laughing out loud

There's absolutely no way they gonna sell us kane

I'd love the idea of having PEA, the guys fast and has great finishing (don't know why people believe he misses a lot of chances, has got one of the best goals per shot ratios you'll find). Lukaku's first touch will betray him at a top club, though he's still a good striker, just not a great one. Belloti has got a ridiculous price tag, though that one simply depends on whether the Chelsea higher ups are willing to spring it, but would also be a great signing. As for morata, he has a great goals per min ratio, and seems to be a well rounded player. I wouldn't be disappointed with any of those three, but still prefer PEA
