Joe Shields must hold some real power to make this happen, another of his former city connections right? 24 minutes ago, dan_cfc said:Was laughed at on here for suggesting we’d sign him Lacroix and WhartonThis huge outlay, if it happens, drastically decreases the chance of Signing them. Much as this is a exciting possible signing I'd be much more excited if we signed Diogo Costa, or secured two class center backs, or a top midfield partner for Caicedo, with these resources. I mean I'd have said there was no chance we'd make such a deal so if they prove me wrong again and sign up Lacriox, Wharton and Diogo Costa along with Rogers then great, I'd be very happy with that would be BlueCos best window by a million miles.

We will need them replacing somehow.Mixed feelings really. I like Enzo but you always want more from him - more athleticism, more defensive work, more goals etc. Maybe if we’re feeling like that then it’s time to move on him and making a profit (something we never thought we would see)There is a bigger chance the chunk of money the club raise from now on is from multiple small ones like Garnacho, Badiashile, Disasi, Delap etc. rather than Enzo.Who is going to buy him? There is only a handful of clubs. I think if he is to go I see City as the most equiped to buy him. The others would be Real Madrid and Paris, but I really can't see those two spending over 100M for Enzo. Unless Paris sell one of Vitinha or Joao Neves, which is unlikely.
2 hours ago2 hr Wow!Out of nowhere!It's a lot of money but he's a player I rate highly.Xabi has some pull, and well done Chelsea for a statement signing.To sign him without Champions League football is impressive.And, the added bonus we hijack Arsenal 😂

This prospective signing seems to be lined up as Enzo replacement

2 hours ago2 hr Lets hope it works out better than the last "Arsenal Hijack" lol, Middlesbrough getting 20% apparently?
2 hours ago2 hr That’s an interesting thought. Enzo sale agreed and Rodgers in. Think most would take that given Rodgers physicality in PL. whatever the state, we still must address GK, GB and CM
2 hours ago2 hr Yesterday... "He's by far villas standout player, he was brilliant against us too. He has pace power, technique intelligence. He has it all imo. I think we're scared because he's English. We've seen time again that English players fall short technically." Edited 2 hours ago2 hr by guddy69
2 hours ago2 hr Weren’t Arsenal going to pay £80m for him, how did we arrive at £117m? The £80m was already inflated IMO.Wouldn’t look to much into his output at Villa as their attack ran through him, will be interesting to see if he steps up on a higher platform with other players.
2 hours ago2 hr Rogers and Palmer as the two 10s it is then.Hopefully Enzo is f**king off now as well Edited 2 hours ago2 hr by AJMurphy
2 hours ago2 hr I thought we were finished because we hadn’t spent £400m on the first day of the window? It’s almost like it’s a World Cup year… great signing

2 hours ago2 hr I think Enzo might go atletico Madrid personally and they'll have the money and the simeone connection. Which as much as I don't think Enzo is right will be a bit disappointing as I was looking forward to him playing with all the opposition hatred 😂
2 hours ago2 hr Ben Jacob’s update:Understand Chelsea pitched to Morgan Rogers as a left-wing starter. Rogers equally comfortable and impressive as a number ten, and his versatility part of the appeal to Chelsea, but told he is joining under the impression he'll play on the left, and alongside Cole Palmer.Along with Xabi Alonso, Behdad Eghbali played a key role in convincing Rogers to join.🏴
2 hours ago2 hr Without any bias if you’re an attack minded player and both Mikel Arteta and Xabi Alonso approach you for their projects, it’s a bit of a no brainer which you’d choose.

2 hours ago2 hr Surely this means Enzo is gone then? Rogers would essentially be replacing his role? Atletico always made sense but do they have the funds?
2 hours ago2 hr 30 minutes ago, guddy69 said:Yesterday...Some of them have a good sense of humour though
2 hours ago2 hr It would be amazing if Enzo ends up going to Atletico Madrid after twerking for Real Madrid all year. That’s hilarious.Please make it happen.
2 hours ago2 hr 6 minutes ago, Sconnie Blue said:Surely this means Enzo is gone then? Rogers would essentially be replacing his role?Atletico always made sense but do they have the funds?If they sell Alvarez to Arsenal they will, but they would then also need to replace him. Would Enzo even want Atletico? Hardly a massive step up, he wouldn't be going there to win things.

Hardly a massive step up, he wouldn't be going there to win things.Well his dream is to play in Madrid as long as we get the money he’s gone.However there is a scenario where he pisses off the Spanish fans in the final and the clubs all steer clear of him this summer.So he’s pissed off the Spanish pissed off the English and has no where to go. Maybe PSG comes in for him.Actually he’s pissed them off too hasn’t he with his racist song on the bus. These Argentine players are something else aren’t they.
