Enzo Fernandez - Officially a Blue!

I’ll pay for his ticket myself if we replace him with Anderson.

And if we continue our not winning run and get a 15th place finish will he even still be here?

They also have a younger and better player in Joao Neves. He isn’t displacing Vitinha or Ruiz either. This is his agent being mischievous and fishing for an improved contract.

Ruiz is not at the levels of last season apparently hence the interest if real.

I’d swap them today if I could and I rate Enzo much higher than most on here.

The transfer of Joao Neves to PSG also shows the value of having a competent Director of Football in place. His release clause at Benfica was apparently exactly the same as that of Enzo Fernandez (€120m) and yet PSG got their man for €70m.

One of the first "big" signings for the new project. If he wants out, others will follow soon. It's clear the project is not going in the direction all these kids were promised.

They should all want out.

All of Caicedo, Enzo, Cucurella, James and Palmer could move to sides who have certain CL football ever season and bigger wages.

Estevao soon enough too, for now it is worth him time at his age.

This nonsense project offers them naff all after a few season.

I suspect we may start to see this happen if we fail to qualify for Europe next season. Reece perhaps will stay a bit longer given his long career at the club, but the likes of Enzo, Caicedo, and Palmer will all want to be playing at clubs with genuine ambition to win things.

Reece will have 2 years left on his deal. I feel it is very likely blueco try to sell him.

we wont be in the CL next season imo, Rosenior is just another Potter, this level is beyond him , but if I am wrong on that I still think those players will at least explore the option of leaving.

Sell Enzo and be left with just James that actually looks like he gives a sh*t on the pitch 👍

While left wondering what could have been had Lavia not been made of glass.

Could have been a midfield trio up there with Maka, Essien and Lamps.

Although when basically the rest of the team bar a couple of players are sh*t, would it have mattered.

  1. Fofana

  2. Lavia

These two should have been an important part of this team, especially Lavia. It simply is not possible for professional players that young to get injured that often and be treated like babies everytime they get back. I mean there are players like Kane or Lewandowki who I swear to God that I feel like I see them playing every three days, for both club and country and never get injured and are way into their 30s.

Lavia was supposed to be Caicedo's partner in midfield but he is never available, Fofana was supposed to be one of the main center backs, yet he is never available. A lot of things must be addressed this summer. Can't start yet another season thinking who's minutes we should manage and how much we should rotate just so they do not get injured playing more than two weeks in a row like we are the f**king NHS and not a football club...

Yes. I suspect the rotation and resting is another SD level policy introduced to cover up their own stupidity. It's used like a Band-Aid: stuck over the shyte decisions they make to buy "fragile" players after failing to carry out due diligence.

Even worse, are the stupider decisions taken to dispose of players like Gallagher who has never missed a game because of injury and has CFC running through his blood. Why - because he didn't fit the bald clown's system - or because he was an easy player to make a buck from?

Whatever... maybe we'll see our "Head of Global Goalkeeping" (ffs) on the bench for the 2nd leg against Arsenal 😁

I think he'd be a loss - chips in with quite a few goals now. But I’m good with giving Santos an extended run, seeing what Essugo can do, hoping for Lavia, and allowing the no.10 to be between Cole, Pedro and Estevao.

Ultimately in the Prem our midfield needs more athleticism than Enzo offers. But he’s still a good player and price needs to be right.

I doubt he is going anywhere in January. Lets see if anything changes in midfield under Rosenior. However, if we end up outside European places as looks possible right now, I think Enzo will be one of those to request a transfer.

The club needs to sell, especially if we don’t make champions league. Because of the model the debt can needs kicking down the road constantly,not a lot of transfer value floating around the fringe team, bomb squad or loan army anymore.

First team players will have to go soon and I still don’t think Enzo is suited to the prem and of all the first teamers we could cash in on he’s the one I’d rather.

But who knows who could ask to jump ship and who the f**k would blame them?

As much as I hope it’s true, I don’t think Egbahli’s ego would allow us to sell him

Anyone is for sale in this model at the right time. Enzo book value is still around 70mill. I reckon that is still too high.

Now Cobham products like Reece and Trev should help us kick the can down the road this summer.

Notice all of young Liam's notes went straight to Enzo and not our captain Reece F*cking James. Am I wrong to think the managers comms to the team should go through the captain?

Too old school I guess but I do like that he's a Wandsworth boy.
