Reminds me a young Vertonghen. Except you know, he's RAPID.
Then when he comes back, he gets a few sub appearances but spends most of his time twiddling his thumbs, then we send him on loan again in January.Guler deal to be made.
Buy Guler, send back to Fener for 1 season on loan.
Perisic goes there free as another sweetener.
You accuse people of being entitled, go on to suggest they are immature and then shampoo your own bollocks for acting in good faith and casting pearls before swine.I think you know that the “divorced from reality” comment was referring to the view rather than an accusation of insanity. Tomo himself apologised and stepped back from the comment and you came in to encourage him not to recant.
You want to position yourself above the fray but then you want to hand down judgments on others in arbitrary ways. Thanks but no thanks.
See I knew Poch wouldn't let us down.It really is insane. Chelsea are going to be stuck with loads of players they don’t want on long contracts and high wages, oh well
What does “casting pearls before swine” mean?You accuse people of being entitled, go on to suggest they are immature and then shampoo your own bollocks for acting in good faith and casting pearls before swine.
You are a snide, insufferable bore.
Yeah, I really think Lo Celso might be in his plans.And as if with every new manager, he might want to see and judge everyone himself. I reckon there maybe one or two we thought were done here that may end up surprising us as squad options
Under Poch, we had alot of deadwood that ended up staying in his first season. Barring Livermore who was sold early on in the summer window, we pretty much sold anyone else in the last week of the window once Pochettino could determine whether or not the players were good enough for his system.
We don't know the club's valuation on players.We don’t know if we have had offers. We also don’t know what prices the club have quoted their agents.
If Lo Celso was 15m, I’m pretty sure he’d be gone by now.
Winks for under 5m? Homegrown, good season, CL experience… gone by now
Even though I’m not sure I can ever forgive him for that corner against Everton, Lo Celso is perhaps the one player that might be able to offer something in a more aggressive team. Perhaps as an 8/10 rotation player? He was at his best when playing in between the lines and trying to play the ball through.
He may well be, right up until week 2 of the season when he's injured and out for 5 games. A plan involving Giovani Lo Celso is not a reliable plan.
Just for clarity, I'm not saying he should be.Even though I’m not sure I can ever forgive him for that corner against Everton, Lo Celso is perhaps the one player that might be able to offer something in a more aggressive team.

Lo Celso 15m = pure speculation
Winks for under 5m also speculation
As you yourself said.
"We don't know if we've had any offers"
Therefore we don't know if Levy is looking for too much money.

I'm only saying that if Posty wants a creative AM he's the only one on a books atm.
Pretty much. They might see Kulu there as well, but again, probably only as a rotation player.I'm only saying that if Posty wants a creative AM he's the only one on a books atm.
Him, Maddison and Kulu with Bissouma behind.I've never been sold on Gio's creative abilities. His xA over the course of his career backs me up on that. I find him, at his best, to be energetic and a reasonable knitter of play. The type you play with a #10 and a more solid player as part of a 3.
But his injury history & the fact I do think he does prefer playing in Spain turns me off him completely.
