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.

Chelsea contact £67m striker's agent, he may be sold next year - journalist (thechelseachronicle.com)

Vlahovic from Juventus might be our target, Arsenal is also rumored to want him. 

I did rate this guy, but i have been massivelky underwhelmed with him whenever I have seen him this season. I suspect that thewre is better out there fgor less money, but due to agents and lazy media cr@p in certain areas we would never see any links

He is a good young forward hampered by Allegri’s negative approach. Doesn’t help that Juve have no creativity with Chiesa just returning from a long term injury. Doesn’t help that their other options on the wings are Di Maria & Cuadrado, two players way past their best. 
Thing is for the rumoured fee; you are better off buying Mitrovic who is familiar with the league, and way ahead of his development for £40m.

He's tall and left-footed and just 22 years old that's why the price is higher. He has 7 goals in 15 matches this season and he also scored for his national team. The links seem to be real, Juventus is in some trouble and apparently Arsenal wants to take advantage of that and sign him, just today I saw us being linked as well so I think in this case there is some fire where that smoke is...

Allegri seems to have lost a bit of tactical edge in general, his style doesn't seem to work anymore. Even so, I wouldn't go for Mitrovic instead of a younger player that has a higher ceiling, Mitrovic is a more classical target man, a bit hot-headed and he does take a lot of shots so he'll get upset after not getting involved.

We should be going all out for that Amrabat as a number 6 if we don’t go for Rice. 

Difficult to know, certainly played well for Morocco and looked strong running out of defence though does not always mean he would be good for us.

Linked with Brighton a few weeks ago.

It really is a bit embarrasing how much Boehley apparently just wants to be Brighton.

How is it embarrassing when we've been signing flop after flop for the past five years? Our recruitment has been sh*t for awhile now so the last thing we should be doing is laughing at Brighton recruitment people.

It's even funnier that loads of Chelsea fans have complained for years about us not signing these kind of players ahead of "smaller teams", now we are it's apparently embarrassing.
