I don't know... Kulusevski and Bentancur have looked alright so far.We need to stop buying players on the transfer list at bigger clubs. If Depay was good he wouldn’t be for sale. We should have already learned that lesson after we bought Emerson.

Footballers aren't one size fits all, which is the problem most amateur scouts and plenty of professional scouts fall victim to. Just because a player succeeds in one place, doesn't mean they'll succeed elsewhere. Nor does it mean that just because a player hasn't succeeded somewhere, they will not succeed elsewhere.I don't know... Kulusevski and Bentancur have looked alright so far.
Well Messi has kind of flopped at PSG, which means that everything he did at Barca is forgotten and he's a short Argentinian farmer now.Footballers aren't one size fits all, which is the problem most amateur scouts and plenty of professional scouts fall victim to.

We need to be buying the crown jewels from lesser clubs, that’s where we have had most success in the market. Modric from Zagreb, Eriksen from Ajax, Wanyama/Toby from Southampton, Dele from MK Dons,
Dembele from Fulham, we should be buying standout players from smaller teams. Players that opposing fans will not want to sell. Not players that clubs are desperate to get rid of.
No mate he just gone see an opera by Rossini. Hmm the useless precaution....Precaution's not some new fancy hipster for wingback is it....The good news is Emerson has just posted an Instagram of him in the barbers in Seville, hopefully he’s been talking about a return to Betis.
Chelsea can't exercise the buyback on Livramento atm can they?1. It says we're offering those two players; not that Soton want either of them.
2. There's still the issue of the Chelsea's buy-back clause.
It's not close to being as straight forward as you suggest.
8 strikers 6 left backs and 11 goalkeepersPick the best player at every club in the bottom half of the prem. then do the same for the top half of the Dutch / Belgian / Portuguese leagues. And there's your transfer target list!
For a "good price" I'd also take chance on him - as an understudy to Harry K.I would be interested in Jovic as a bench option. He hasn't set the world alight at Madrid, but analytics showed that even if he only scored a couple of goals during his loan back to Frankfurt, his movement and work rate did so much to help their overall attacking output.
He needs to rehab his career a bit and I think that the prem could do that for him.
Exactly. I don't want him to replace Harry as the main man. But I'd be happy with him as the bench option and understudy to Harry. Or for whoever replaces Harry if Harry goes.For a "good price" I'd also take chance on him - as an understudy to Harry K.
