new fav with bookies for Chelsea keeper job.

Not sure about him, i remember Liverpool specifically targeted him at set pieces when they played PSG which is the last thing we need in our next keeper.

Is it rumoured loan or perm? 

The betting odds are for next perm club, 6/4

Just checked their are videos of him posted on YouTube over a week ago suggesting him to chelsea. Sorry just noticed he was spoken about a week or so ago,and he has moved to UK.

Speaks volumes that he was unable to hold down the #1 spot at PSG.

Even Bulka's probably ahead of him, I pass.

Maybe we are looking at him as a replacement for Caballero.

Not inspiring at all, and not an improvement on Kepa I think...

I could see something like this happening. An experienced and competent upgrade on willy, to genuinely challenge Kepa. 

We spent big on Kepa, and I cant see us simply writing that fee off, and going again with another huge outlay - particularly given the strengthening that is needed elsewhere. 

Fore me:

1) Our first choice should be to sell Kepa, and reinvest that money into a new keeper. AND buy a topclass CB.... But...That will be hard, as nobody is likely to pay 50mill for him, and I dont think we sell for less....

2) ....So, my second choice would be to spend the money on a top class CB, and bring in a decent(ish) keeper, cheaply (Areola, Akinfeev, The turkish guy we were linked with, Foster, Joe Hart? - christ - cant believe I included him!), who is better than Cabellero, and can challenge/replace Kepa for a season if needed. 

I genuinely believe that Liverpool this year, with Kepa in goal, still win the league. I also think that Kepa in goal for City would still get them 2nd place. The point is, that the defence and system is more important than the single player. I think that with a rock solid defence, and some decent tactics (get rid of the zonal rubbish), Kepa can still come good. For me, a world class CB is more of a priority than a keeper. Kepa behind Terry and Riccy, would still win us the league. Kepa behind vidic and Rio ditto. Kepa behind Rudi and anyone of the others we have is relegation material!

So - Areola to Chelsea? That's a nipple I could come around to licking, I mean liking....

 

 

Is this really the breast we can do?

If he doesn’t make himself look like a tit every week it’s an upgrade...
