Summer 2023 Transfer Rumours

Ruined the DM Market by signing Enzo for 100M, no DM in the world is worth that... now they are signing Caicedo for 115 and Lavia for 50, why they need 3 young DMs, I have no idea? So Olise adding to all their wide options adds to their recent stockpiling nature.

 

TBF their wide options are Sterling, Mudryk and Madueke. Probably do with one more as Hudson- Odoi isnt fancied.

Agree on the DMs.

 

I really rated Hudson-Odoi until he got injured, never seemed to get a look in since.

 

Bad attitude imo. Refused an England U21 call up when demoted by Southgate as felt above that.

Chelsea probably frustarted didnt flog to Bayern for £80m all those years ago. Linked with Saudi.

 

Fell out with Leverkusen too. In talks with Fulham for the last week or so but it will be a big pay cut, waiting for Saudi interest.

 

You can have the world at your feet then you are the forgotten man as the football world moves on at a pace. Would have expected him to gain a hat full of caps at first team level but the talent pool in that position churns out constant talent. Now benind the likes of Eze at Palace.

 

Yeah, suppose my cynicism is matching my long tooth...However, many of my comments have my tongue very much lodged in my cheek

 

Good grief. It's the second game of the season ffs.

 

We won. just for once enjoy that.

 

Started for Boro yesterday. I would say no chance of that one

 

Boehly is literally playing "football manager" with Chelsea. Its ridiculous. I'm sure he's buying players because he's bored and wants something to do.

 

Hendrie, East and Timi were left out yesterday. And thats with Taylor, Chapman, Pointon and Oliver unavailable.

Does anyone still see them here after the deadline????

 

Getting rid is not easy though without paying them off.

The Monkey Hangers told us Odusina was good in a 3 at the back. Despite a reasonable pre season MH just doesn't seem to trust or rate him though.

 

I thought Kelly was steady away yesterday and it’s probably his strength in the air that is keeping Odusina out of the side. Odusina should still be on the bench though or sell the lad. If he’s not getting in the match day squad at this point, he may as well try his luck elsewhere.

 

O i dunno, am open to a payoff if it is worth it

 

How do we know he’s not carrying an injury?

 

You are not keeping up with Todd, he is playing football manager with Chelsea And Strasbourg (Vieira new coach) and using sneaky super long deals to keep costs down (Moises till 2031 gulp) even though UEFA are trying to stop this.
He also owns other sport franchises in the USA so i wouldn't say bored, more like hyper-active, need other people to stop giving him money to spend!

 

Agree.

Wanting them to go and them actually leaving are different things.

Squad players are often trickier to shift at teams where they think a good season is ahead. They like to stick around and see if there's an injury or switch around to get in the team and then play a part in a successful season.

 

He's not as good as Kelly is the issue, but we still need him as back up should Kelly get injured... then he will get his chance to prove his worth and keep his place in the team.

 

With Hendrie it is pretty simple though. He has no chance. East has no chance with a fully fit squad. Didnt even make the bench yesterday and with 4 injured and a couple more expected in he will rot. Odusina the nost likely to get a chance but he could easily take a loan option.

Weve pretty managed to get rid of everyone else. Will always be an option and I cant imagine any are on big money.
