They’d be clowns if they did to be fair. Argue he’s better than what we have all you like, we have no room and wouldn’t be able to shift anyone this late on

And there in lies the problem. We have too many players that if a quality experienced players somehow becomes available we have no room.

Or we just have enough central midfielders and don’t need a soon to be 34 year old who would top our wage structure

We can use our It's Happening gif for outgoing players! Exciting times!

Except it will play out more likely 1 or 2 in the next 9.5 days, followed by a scramble to unload the remaining 8 or 9  in the last few hours of the window 😉

Gundogan back to City.

Predictable. The madhouse that is Barca wasn't for him. Flick didn't fancy him and they need to free up his salary to register Olmo.

"we should leave ourselves short on players on the off chance a 35 year old becomes available for free."

Obscure striker picked at random out of a hat written on a fortune cookie has just been seen pulling into the Chelsea car park. cross live now to our man loitering with intent outside stamford bridge... 

Jonathan Tah leaving in a free at the end of the season, would be better than either of the brothers of destruction and he’s free. What more could Clearlake want? 

reports of Liverpool number 2 wants to leave to be a #1 somehwere.

I only saw him during the first half of the England vs Ireland match, missed the rest.

is he any good? An upgrade on Sanchez? Can he play with his feet?

Not especially. 

We should sign Kelleher if only to play him in domestic cup finals.

Were you on the pitch after the Hull game? Only time I've ever been on the hallowed turf.

Kenny Swain and Gary Stanley were almost telepathic at times. Was shocked when Swain was switched to LB by Villa but he was really good at it.

Pre crab Butch scored 13 goals that season.

Memories. 🙂

Childhood memories ... that double page spread from Shoot! Magazine made it onto my bedroom wall LOL

I used to get Shoot plus Scorcher & Score though I'd grown out of the comic by 1977. Used to love it though. Would literally run to the newsagents to get it on Saturday mornings.

Same here but I didn't take it out very well and had a staple hole in the middle of mine.

Pretty sure that I had an Iain Britton picture in there at the same time.

I kept a scrapbook of that season with clips of reports and photos from each game. There was a match early in the season where the headline of one report the next day was "Chelsea Champions". I cut that out and pasted it on the cover. Didn't work out the end. Bloody Wolves.

Nothing on this, just my thoughts. If Pogba was 3-4 years younger, I'd have taken him on a free and get him ready for next season.

Probably my no. 1 player on the "what if" list. 

Such a shame he made the wrong move when he chose to return to United. He had it all to become a midfield great and still be at the very top even today.

For me, Pogba is the most talented midfielder that we never got the chance to watch him during his absolute prime and it truly is a great shame because his ceiling was ten times higher than some others who today are remembered as midfield greats.
