Random Rumours

Right then - we haven't signed anyone for about 4 hours, so lets get back to work.  Who do we bring in next?

Winstanley sat in Boehly's office.

"Well done on Enzo, Paul. A world record fee, shaking up the establishment.  Excellent.  Mudryk, Felix as well. 600m spent in 6 months  wow. Brilliant, well done"

Winstanley: "You know we need a striker right!". " and the goalkeeper question is still out there"

 
Is anyone like me and just wants us to sign Nkunku, Felix and a GK in the summer? I'd quite like a few weeks off thinking aboit football. 
For me i would really like Felix in. Maybe Diogo Costa and then trading players out. I would be buzzing if these guys could trim down teh dquad without massively undercutting ourselves just to shut these media muppets down.

Jorginho for example is a good bit of business whichever way you look at it. 6 months left on his contract, serial winner with the club. We have had teh benefit of that and still moved him on at is age and contract position for £12m.

Lukaku of course may well be the elephant in the room come the summer

 
If Conte is still at Spurs next season and they sell Kane then maybe we might be able to shift Lukaku to them.

I'm sure he's used to it.

I still think we need another real midfielder that would rotate with Enzo and Kante.  I'm out of patience with Kovacic, and do not think Gallagher is good enough.  That aside, agree and think it needs to be a balanced with plenty of sales in the summer

So I’m reading SS football, and we are gonna go all in on Napoli’s Osihmen, ok ok ok, Nkunku is done and dusted, where the f**k will he play, Osihmen yea he’s a striker?

I know we are gonna play to Thiagos strengths 3 at the back, 7 forwards, who needs a midfield 😱🫣

Call me crazy, but I think spending over 100m on Osihmen will be reminiscent to how we operated in the past on brining in big money strikers, and for that reason alone I'm against it. 

Rather we remain patient and develop what we or until the right ST becomes available. 

 
Auba, PEA.  . . rumours that he’s going to LA FC. Any truth?
And would the American schedule allow him to be registered?

The MLS season begins at the end of FEB and the transfer window is open to April.

I'm almost against it purely because of how mentally draining another transfer saga with Napoli and ADL would be.

Lukaku, Koulibaly and Kovacic for Osimhen !

BREAKING NEWS: Chelsea have now reached an agreement to loan Aubameyang to Los Angeles FC for the remainder of the campaign. . . .there is loop hole even though he has played for two clubs already, etc. Chelsea will cover his wages? but at least we won't see his mopey face around the club. the curse of the no.9.

Apparently Auba has yet to agree to the deal. But Chelsea want shot of him quicker than you can say Winston Bogarde.

What's the point of a loan where we have to pay all his wages?

 
Hope we pass on Diogo Costa. From what i've seen, far too similar in Kepa with regards to his shot stopping ability and ability to command the box. 
Assuming we haven't pissed off PSG to the point we're blacklisted I'd absolutely love for us to sign Keylor Navas. Perfect option not only while Slonina develops but to add some experience to the flurry of younger signings.

Indeed. AND what was the point in signing him in the first place?

In any MLS loan i think we would have to pay the majority of his wages, although not all.

I feel a little sorry for him and his big sad Horsey face, but he was a Tuchel purchase and he has little meaning in our current squad. Even with Broja injured and Havertz not being the best 'false 9'.

That whole first window was a giant mess made by Todd and Tuchel. None of those first team signings should have been made, Zakaria being the only decent bit of business and Auba the most ridiculous given we had already decided to sack TT.

Won't be able to shift the rest other than taking huge losses.

Hopefully this window is a whole lot better. Badiashile already look rather good.
