Seems abit much. 41 minutes ago, Sconnie Blue said: Buying Caicedo in January has us breaching FFP for this 2023 fiscal season unless we finish Top 4/Win Champions league. (according to Swiss Ramble) Interesting. Ah come on @Sconnie Bluewe are told Todd and Co love the City model so we will just invented a Asian betting company to give us us a bunch of money.

Could see Madueke and Sterling sharing the RW time. Ziyech likely the odd man out there. I think Sterling fits what Potter wants to do quite nicely.

Well he does look a tad more fit than our good old neighbour Christian (the pic doesn't tell much about the legs though). That's some Ronaldo/Lewandowski build, which will hopefully lead to a prolific career as long as theirs.

January 21, 20233 yr Trying not to get too excited about him just yet but it’s not easy. Some wonderful touches today. Quick brain as well as quick feet. Played a couple of perfectly weighed first time passes inside when pressured. I think Kai missed a couple of opportunities to involve him today but it’s a partnership I could see working if Kai plays deeper.

He had no world cup, and their season ended in November. He needs time, and we need to manage him properly. Also need to encourage these boys, they are young and need our backing especially if they play poorly.

I think he pretty much completed every pass, either foot, including a lovely backheel
January 21, 20233 yr Havertz, Mudrk, Joao Felix will be a fun combination to watch, with Sterling and Pullisic on the wing backs😄 He looked very promising, just don't try to learn playing the Chelsea way, and keep doing what he knows.
January 21, 20233 yr 3 hours ago, Spiller86 said: Has all the raw ingredients. Question is whether he can make the most of them or becomes Pulisic. He's significantly stronger than Pulisic from what I can see. He will be a far better fit for our game Edited January 21, 20233 yr by Chelsbear
January 21, 20233 yr Even if he doesn't score as many as we would like, he will be an absolute nightmare for defenders, even fast defenders will get dumped, we need goal scorers feeding off the chaos he'll inevitably create.
January 21, 20233 yr 8 hours ago, Scott Harris said: It was only 35 minutes, but there were little things that stood out. His pace being obvious, but his passing looked crisp and he can spot holes in the oppositions defence. Dribbling in tight spaces was very good and even tracking back and playing a composed pass to get us out of trouble looked good. He already looks like a very exciting player. Scott I think you said he looks like he couldn't finish his dinner? Harsh. Hope he isn't Timo Werner on acid.

He will be a far better fit for our game I think there is certainly something there. He seems to have pretty decent close control. Almost that Hazard level of bringing the ball down with the outside of his foot. I think it's always a matter of learning the game at a higher level. PL isn't a farmers league where you can just dribble through or knock the ball around someone and out run them. Let's hope he can bring a bit of magic to the forward line.
January 22, 20233 yr I was impressed by what he gave us yesterday after he came on. Quick feet, good balance and not afraid to take players on. Not the most analytical insight ever, that I fully accept!😀

I hope and pray that as a Ukranian, having seen his country go through unimaginable horror in the last 18 months, he is a bit hungrier for top level success that Pulisic. always struck me as a bit soft, cossetted and a Daddy's boy
January 22, 20233 yr It's the first time this season that I felt that we finally had some good football from the wings this season. Ziyech and Mudryk were excellent against Liverpool. About Mydryk, he made a very positive impact, honestly I wanted us simply play on him as much as possible because I had a feeling that something would happen. Interesting prospect, let's see how it will work out. Great debut, I'm very positive about him.

YES, so right !! This lad will cause havoc, but we desperately need a FINISHER who can put the ball away inside the box, anyone know what Olivier Giroud is doing these days ??

January 22, 20233 yr I completely understand why he didn’t sign for Arsenal It’s essentially a team full of “dorks” White, Ramsdale, Holding, Tomiyasu, Tierney, Arteta, Vieira and Gabriel with his hair transplant, El Neny and Zinchenko. imagine having to spend 8 years with that lot The only dork we have is Pulisic Arsenal is that team which you see in these stupid movies where a bunch of outsiders win something for once against all odds. Thiago Silva alone radiates more class and prestige than the whole Arsenal squad

January 22, 20233 yr Haven’t seen a player like this since Hazard. We’ve desperately missed it. Great work by the club to get the deal done.
