Random Rumours

I think the sloppy goals come from lack of communication across the defence. 

We play ourselves into danger. 

Chech and Mendy had an ability to catch a ball and therefore nullify dangerous attacks.

Pickford is probably the best all round keeper in the division. Would love him at the club. He might well fancy a change of scenery. But Whitewall is correct, we need to address other areas as a priority

We are being linked with a move for Ramsdale in January. I am actually surprised he has lost his spot at Arsenal as he had looked pretty decent for them last season.

Any avid Bundesliga watchers who can tell us more about Serhou Guirassy? Apparently only a 15m release clause.

Saw that. If we are looking to have a punt on a player like Gyokeres then this seems to be just as a good a bet but 80m cheaper. It seems a no brainer if they are going to go for the younger unproven route, but then i am often left scratching my head with the way this lot seem to go. They have paid more than this for 17 year old kids that will likely never even play for us.

Currently earns €40K a week according to capology so doubt he'd be an expensive punt on wages either. 

His career record reminds me a bit of Didier at the point we signed him.

The only problem is that he is 27 so is almost old enough to be a parent to some of our squad.

I'd take Olise on his current form and bin a few of our mob..

Looking at our current right wing options, we have Madueke starting to show some form, and we also have Palmer to play RW when he's not at #10, or Sterling if he's not selected on the left 

Which of those three are you binning off to bring in Olise ?

Personally I'd swap Madueke for Olise quite easily.

I think Palmer is better off playing inside than out on the right, I'd be incline to bin Sterling TBH.  He shows up when he wants and even before his gaff at Wolves tends to be greedy and for himself than the team. I watched Olise at Reading and he was for the most part far and away the best player on the team and don't forget he was with Chelsea for 7 years as a young kid.  

 
Olise is top quality. It’s taking a minimum of £90 million to get him away from Palace.

When you look at his performances then compare to Antony and even Mudryk then £90 mill is cheap.

Would love him at Chelsea but we’ve spunked loads of money in those forward positions already.

Can see him at Liverpool or City

This is the big difference between the PL in 23/24 and a few years ago.  All clubs are getting a sh*t ton of TV money now and the mid or lower table sides no longer need to sell their best players to an elite "big six" just to stay in business. If those big clubs still want said players then they have to pay through the nose to get them.

It's punched the prices up for players from abroad as well, as the selling clubs all know that the PL clubs have money.

Yeah and that’s good for the game the premier league seems very competitive just now, even if the top 4 is somewhat predictable. Look at Villa and westham or Everton or wolves. 

 
Inter milan is going bankrupt maybe we go in for barella and lautoro martinez and offload broja and gallagher?

I think you are spot on there... defense doesn't work unless they're all singing from the same hymn sheet

Do they all speak English?

According to Ben Jacobs: 

- Todibo, Diomonde, and Guehi are the CB options the club are interested to bring in. 
- Osimhen deal possible with pre-agreement similar to Nkunku

- Ziyech could come back after loan termination from Galataseray 😂

Already snubbed us once. It looks like he doesn't want to come here

If I remember correctly, he had some interest in the summer but we were careless in our approach and risked being reported for tapping him up. So, we ultimately backed down and he signed a new deal.

 
CB is the one position we have millions of options. So many that we're playing them at fullback. Why do we need another one?
