They're trolling hard!!

He's 21 and you already know that? Ridiculous statement IMO.

I think we're being used in the media to drive up the price to PSG. They know we need a CB and they know that we have money. But chances are he's going to PSG if he goes anywhere and we probably won't even put an offer in for him.

So was that his mistake or our mistake? If your employer offered you better terms to stay, you’d more than likely accept. But his development is being shorted by Ziyech, Pulisic and Werner who have all been given more opportunities for runs in the team..without consistent success.

Again, Mount first delivered on loan at a lower level then was given an opportunity with Chelsea. CHO should have been sent out on loan in my opinion. He’s also had two Achilles injuries. I see all of this Mount is a hard worker and such (which I believe to be true) but what’s to say CHO doesn’t work just as hard? It’s just funny how one gets a pass at times and the other doesn’t even given the circumstances. Mount doesn’t play well, he’s still in the team. CHO has a bad game and it’s back to the bench and that’s always been the case. Anyway, I hope that they’re both huge successes for the club. They deserve better from us.

Mount has been healthy and has been afforded the opportunity to get huge minutes whether on loan or back at Chelsea. We can't say the same for CHO but we wonder why he hasn't developed (and he's still 2 years younger than Mount).

Exactly, a good team adds good players. A great team adds top players, they add at the top which forces the others to step up.

I'm honestly surprised that so many top players still want to go to Barcelona. History yes, but they have mortgaged the club just to sign players. They've been run worse than a football manager team to the point that it cost them Messi. They're consistently overpaying players and then asking players to take pay cuts. They're trying to push players out the door just to try and balance the books somewhat. It doesn't seem like a solid foundation that I'd be excited to go to but it is what it is.

Silva probably speaks Italian from his time at AC Milan so I don't think language barrier would be an issue. Not sure of Silva's English but De Ligt's is fine.

I think that he's the type of forward that TT wants to lead the line. He doesn't want a target man, he wants someone who can play intricate football up top. Lukaku and his feet of steel definitely wasn't a good fit. Neither is Werner and his loose touch. I wouldn't pay over 30m for him and his wages would absolutely have to fall in line, otherwise, keep it moving.

He is one of the signings that we absolutely need. Young, experienced, strong DC who has experience playing in a back 3 (although I'm hoping that we go to 4 in the back). Milan Skriniar and Kalidou Koulibaly are both high on my list as well.

I qualified his age as to say 80m for a 22 year old rather than 97.5m for a 28, 29 year old. 80m for a class 22 year old is not bad business assuming that grow into the player you think they will be.

Bellingham or Phillips?

Yes and almost twice the cost..you missed that part.

Tchouameni is only 22 years old so you're paying 80m for a player that you should have for the next decade plus or pay twice that for a player who's English (albeit proven in the Premier League)?
