Random Rumours

We should be going for Barnes at Leicester, they are a sh*tfest at the moment and I'm sure he would love to get away from them.

I like him too. Good eye for goal and a good runner with the ball. 

I wonder what Potter would think of him, or Gordon for that matter.

Harvey Barnes is Anthony Gordon with talent. I think he's a very good player and would be a smart signing along the lines of Damien Duff or Joe Cole.

Barnes, Berge, Alvarez, Sangare, Lavia, Toney, not saying they're all bad players, but have we given up on winning trophies all together?

Hopefully with the new director of football in place we will have a better plan in place rather than the current buying of random players.  Does anyone really believe spending close to £100 million on Lavia and Alvarez is going to win us trophies?  Its so easy now a days in football to flush a hundred million down the toilet, especially the way Boehly is throwing money about.

I'd get used to it.

I would be amazed if Potter falls into the trap of the latest bling bling continental footballer that delivers bu88er all when he gets here.

If Potter had been in charge during the summer i would have put more money on him signing a player like Mee rather than Koulibaly on the basis that he could make him a better footballer in a better system.

The players that you quote look right up Potter's alley (erm possibly not the best phrase) and just taking one of them as an example, Lukaku couldn't even get the ball off of Toney, let alone outscore him.

Don't worry we now have the guy who discovered Haaland, we're saved.

Feels like Liverpool people thought they’d be signing Bellingham last summer or this summer but I’d guess he ultimately ends up at City.

No idea if the legitimacy of this. Highly rated Brazilian youngster.

Really liked what I saw in his highlight videos so I searched for all touches recordings. I only found two and, based on those, I can't say I'm super excited about this lad joining. My feeling is that he's €15m max 'project'. Would far rather pay £50m for Lavia.

How has Raphael Leao performed at the World Cup, stock up or stock down?

I'd say stock down, but that's been his season up to this point. His nonchalant attitude is the worst part of his game and it hasn't changed at all. He was a bench option for most games and wasn't even used as an alternative tactical replacement for Ronaldo so that speaks volumes. 

His attitude got better at the 2nd half of last season, but it reverted back this season after Milan's title, I'd say he only really showed up at the derby against Inter. 

He's all the talent in the world, but if he will become a real world class player is all up to him and I'm afraid he won't fulfill his potential even though I advocate for his signing at a reasonable price, but surely not at 120m or something crazy like that.

Thank you.

For the record I have been against us signing him but that isn't why I asked. I became aware this afternoon that he wasn't being talked about in Chelsea transfer forums recently, so I thought I'd ask.
