I’d live with us making only one more signing if it’s a real quality signing for the first team.

Same. Although it’s more in hope than expectation.

Don’t even mind if it’s a wide player as opposed to an out and out 9. Would just be wonderful to sign one of those players where you think ‘shit, he’s brilliant’.

Inject a bit of excitement into the team.

I should add that I have zero clue who that player would be.

Everything you need to know about Mason Greenwood’s girlfriend Harriet Robson

AWAY from the pitch, Marseille player Mason Greenwood is in a relationship with Harriet Robson. In February 2025, The Sun revealed that the couple had welcomed their second child after relocating t…

They have just had a child and they’re getting married - So at this point, all of it is a private matter between the two of them imho.

That being said - I don’t want Greenwood at our club for all the obvious reasons.

You wouldn't be saying that if the cunt went out to a nightclub next weekend, coaxed your sister back to a hotel and then raped her.

The Belgian league is still better than League 1, we've been beaten by a number of Belgian clubs over the last decade. Orban will probably be the second striker, Veliz will be given time to adjust and then probably be sent on loan.

He's still a punt, and if he we buy him in the next couple of days, he isn't just going to come and be second striker in front of Son, he will have to prove himself first.
 
When we Sign Gift Orban the club best do the unveiling video as below -

Levy to the big man “hey Ange come here we got you something special” camera then pans round to a huge life size wrapped present , blue and white wrapping paper of course , Ange goes over to open it and out jumps Orban , camera then zoom in to Anges face where he says “what a gift , mate” :ange-arms:

I am just defending the court verdict, as I haven't followed his case closely.
I have not listened to those recordings actually and why aren't those recordings used as a proof against him and thus finding him guilty?
Again, I am not saying he's not guilty but the court say he is. Is the English court system so blatantly corrupt and twisted?
I am aware that will all his money he must have had access to the best lawyers and their influence and manipulative powers, so it may well be that's what swayed the police and jury...

They are not being used because the woman in question dropped the charges and is now having a kid with greenwood which is all kinds of fucked up.

Maybe inform yourself of the facts before having your say on the matter.

I'm not saying we should buy him but we did go out and buy Woodgate who was found guilty of affray in a racist attack against an Asian student.

Woodgate was bought some 20+ years ago in a different time - but he still had a lot of adverse press coverage at the time, and rightly so. It was a one off incident, as I recall it, outside a night club - ie was not some part of ongoing abuse.

The only 'mitigation' coming out at the time was that Bowyer was the main culprit with Woodgate being an accomplice - but (rightly) given a sentence which was community service,

He's seemingly never been in trouble since.

Spurs bought him some 8 years after the affray, when he had largely been rehabilitated through serving a sentence and keeping 'his nose clean',, playjng for Real Madrid amongst others, as he has done ever since.

Social media being what it is, I suspect Spurs check on players a lot more than they used to

I hope the post I'm about to make is thrown back in my face in years to come, but:

We have Scarlett the same way we had CCV under Poch. He's not a PL player in my opinion.

Kane had many many fans say he was not a PL player even after he had scored 3 goals in his first ever 7 PL starts.

IMO he's very young to try to play in PL, but he has a much better physique than a year ago, so its difficult to tell

Absolutely. And players going there need to wise up. What point and chance to play regular football.

I know it's nigh on impossible but I would love a handicap system, based on whatver metric could be reasonably applied ..

There is no way Chelsea for example should be starting on the same points as those who have not bought anyone or whose expenditure is a tenth of the spendthrifts.

Should just be a wage cap simple as the NFL and all American sports have that spot on. Fuck having a draft system but it would stop all this bollocks and level the playing field out cause ATM Chelsea are taking the piss

No. He’s been a flop, a massive lightning rod and it’s Definitely time to get rid.

Chelsea - Lukaku the 2nd time

Chelsea buying Kepa

Maguire for £80mil

Liverpool buying Aquilani

Woolwich buying Mustafi.

You could make a whole list just out of Chelsea strikers.

Shevchenko, Torres, Morata, Werner, Lukaku, they do it like every year.

I will say, while there have been endless massive flops of player who couldn't make it at the sharp end of the Premier League, Ndombele is tracking in a direction where he might not make it anywhere in football, and I can't think of many at that kind of price where that has been the case.

David Bentley was another with a huge fee at the time. We have form here.

He wasn’t found not guilty. The CPS weren’t able to continue the prosecution. The CPS only bring a case if they think they have enough evidence, and there’s a good chance of a conviction. The number reported rape cases that brought to trial, let alone that result in actual convictions, is tiny.

Greenwood should be binned period.
Listen to those recordings on YouTube/Twitter, when Greenwood can be heard shouting at the girl to “move your fucking legs up”

The woman replies that she does not want sex and Greenwood says: “I don’t give a fuck what you want, you little shit.”

She tries to protest but he shouts at her to shut up. She tries again, telling him she does not want to have sex.

Greenwood responds: “I’m going to fuck you, you twat. I don’t care if you want to have fucking sex with me. Do you hear me?”

You seriously want someone like that anywhere near our club?!?

What in the jesus mother of christ did I just read?!?! I knew it was pretty damning, but not that fucking damning. How on earth has he been cleared? This is the equivalent of VAR dismissing the goal Lampard scored against Germany in the 2010 world cup. Maybe I've missed the chat but seriously how on earth has been cleared? This is crystal clear evidence of his intent to have sex with a woman against her will....

You forgot the original one - Winston Bogarte who saw out his 5 year Chelsea contract @ £40k pw about 20 years ago (so probably £400k pw now) making about 12 appearances in that time.

Lived in a caravan (obviously confused Chelsea and West Ham, but who wouldn't !)
