Horribly handled. There were so many players with potential coming through then that we handled terribly by loaning them out to garbage teams that never played them, and ended up wasting season after season. The list of players I can name is literally through the roof. THANKFULLY though, we are slightly improving in that aspect with RLC and CHO both getting game time with our first team on a fairly regular basis, so maybe we are changing just a little bit? Though of course that all goes out the window is this moronic board decided to just sell CHO to Bayern

Well we've apparently rejected an offer of 50m + Malcolm for Willian. if this is actually true then this club is truly the worst in the world at transfers and this board is utterly clueless. Bunch of morons.

We've rejected an offer of 50m AND Malcolm for a 30 year old sh*thouse named Willian. even if it was a straight swap lf Malcolm and William I'd take it. Willian for 50m cash only id take it. instead we reject it.. I am truly sick to my stomach, this club is a joke when it comes to transfers and honestly ive had enough

what? Morata - 40-50m (value gone down) Bats - 30m Bakayoko - 30m Stinkwater - Lucky if we get anthing more than 10m Zappacosta - 15m Thats about 125m we're looking at from selling deadwood garbage

Somewhat agree with Kante, but after that Leicester season he was definitely one of the most sought after players in England, its just most clubs assumed he wouldnt move. Now he's sought after by the likes of PSG. Jorginho was sought after Pep/City and thats pretty big if you think about it, not quite the flashy world beater type that Madrid/Barca tend to sign but he (was at least) thought as one of the best CM's and what abou Diego Costa? He was pretty sought after, especially after his stellar season with Athletico.

Sell him, recoup some money and use it for Icardi. Should be able to get Icardi for free if we sell Bats, Morata, Bakayoko, Stinkwater and Zappacosta

God forbid we pander and get Higuain over Icardi

Kante and Jorginho? I mean they weren't as hyped as Hazard is, but they were both definitely sought after

Hysaj in Zappa out sounds good Icardi in Morata out sounds even better If we can make just these 2 transfers go in this Jan, we can be more than happy

Willian + cash for Martial while Jose was still there would have been perfect

Sign him immediately

We need this signing, sell morata and keep Giroud as first backup

24, born and raised in london :) wasnt around in the 70's so i wouldnt know, but i understand where you're coming from. Its a shame that its all about the money, but I feel because of the carabao cup, it has diminished the value of the FA cup seeing as both are very similar. If there wasn't a carabao cup, the FA would definitely feel a lot more important than it does currently

All this, and apparently he might not even be going haha! Depends on if we manage to sign a replacement for him in this window

The FA cup was never bigger than the league title or the premiere european competition. Id say its probably on par (if not lower) than the europa league. Don't get me wrong, I'd still love for us to win it, but if i had to choose between the champions league or the prem title, its a very easy choice

I was under the impression that Bayern had met the original asking price of 35m but not actually agreed anything. For the love of god don't sell him

If CHO doesnt start ill actually be pissed. Best winger we have in or squad atm behind only Hazard

Midfield of Jorginho, Kante, Kovacic, Barkley, RLC, Barella seems a good one to have. With Cesc leaving us, we definitely need another player to put in the Jorginho role who has somewhat dwindled since the beginning of the season, and Barella seems a good fit.

Kepa definitely been a great signing! Massive future ahead, and I somewhat like that hes being kept lowkey in terms of performances compared to Ederson and Alisson when hes every bit as good. Hes definitely been ahead of De Gea this season, but thats probably more the fault of jose than anyone

The first being Matt Miazga?

Well the fact that Bayern have apparently offered 30m already for him which we rejected so...

we really do look like a pathetic plastic club if these figures are true. I mean are we seriously worse than Man City (who were a nobody before 2008) in getting money through operations? Take out Roman and we are a bottom tier club in terms of source of funds apparently which disgusts me

Exactly, in which case I dont mind if the deal goes through. But there'sjust no guarantee that CHO will come back to us

It'll be a massive shame if we do end up selling him, however if we do recieve a handsome fee for him I hope at the very least we can at least insert a buy-back clause into the arrangement. If we cant even do that, then I want at least 50-60m for CHO as anything less than that without a buyback seems unreasonable
