Apparently they want Lo Celso too. Would love Paratici to see if we could do a swap deal for those two with Carrasco. He can cover RWB, LWB, LW and, IMO, would be a better option on RW than Lucas.
Also, in a regular season it is harder to get players in the Jan window, with a World Cup inflating the price of the players that perform to a decent standard and clubs having more injured and fatigued players in their squad, thus being reluctant ion letting players go, it will be several times worse IMO."window opens three months after the season starts."
This is not true......
Simple fact: Window opens 5 months after the season starts....
Most of the players will be off to the world cup and will continue playing, picking up knocks, fatigue and so forth. If we make our squad judgements 2 months early then that's foolish. WC is just a long int. break... Season ends/"stops" in May.

I'm sure Levy will wave any fee if they just send Torres the other way.
You know what I mean - the season runs for three months then stops, WC runs, PL games restart and the window opens"window opens three months after the season starts."

People bang on about Conte’s influence and it’s true, he definitely improves players but there’s another reason for optimism with all of our signings - they get to dovetail with world class players like Kane, Son, Romero and with Spence, Kulu too (on the right). Good players always make the game easier for their team-mates…..impeccable first touch, creative passing etc should make it easier to slot into that positionGenuinely makes Martinelli look pub league level. Think he’s going to kill it here after Conte coaches him up a bit.
Just wondering if you're old enough to be here.
Spence hasn't got any experience playing at this level. Sure, if he hits the ground running and exceeds all expectations; we could sell someone in Jan.
The criticism of Royal is ridiculous. He's a good defender who has all the attributes to be coached to improve in the final 3rd.
With any luck, we will spend most games defending a lead; not chasing a goal - and Royal is perfect for this.
