Him on the left and Reece on the right our striker is gonna have an absolute field day getting on the end of balls into the box

Telles and CHO/Pulisic on the left ... James and Ziyech on the right you mean ... ?  Quite frightening on paper ! No wonder we are thinking of keeping Giroud now ...

 
I've gone cold on Chilwell, so Telles would be preferable if we had the opportunity to sign him.

Apparently PSG have all but secured this deal

I’ve seen similar reports. If it’s true, the only scenario that makes sense is that he was ours to be had, but Frank and/or the board is dead set on Chilwell.

 
Would target grimaldo from benfica - similar age to chilwell just lot cheaper

Grimaldo is a tidy player. Too short and not strong enough for the Premier League though.

Any left back we bring in ideally needs to have qualities closer to James'. Pace, strength and crossing ability. Not easy to find though.

I'm not convinced by Chilwell for the price either. He doesn't seem to have any standout qualities. 

 
I saw somewhere that it's official that he signed for PSG.

So what you’re really saying is it’s not official? ?

No I really meant that I thought I saw that it was official that he's already a PSG player.

But here for example it says that he's just 1 step away from the transfer to PSG

https://as.com/futbol/2020/05/01/internacional/1588320555_029678.html?m1=cG9ydGFkYV9wb3J0YWRh&m2=QUNUVUFMSURBRA%3D%3D&m3=NQ%3D%3D&m4=dmlkZW8%3D&m5=MjI%3D

It also points out that he has scored 8 goals and made 5 assists this season for Porto before the break.
