I can't remember ever seeing Son play RW for us tbh.

Not saying he hasn't. Just nothing springs to the top of my head when I hear Son and right wing for Spurs.

So I don't see a scenario where Son moves to the opposite side to accommodate.

I don't think we sign Eze regardless, but if we do will be interesting to see what we've got planned.


I swear he started there for Poch?

Maybe I’m imagining it but I think he came to the club as a RW.
 
If they want to do a deal with us I would go for Cole Palmer , come on Todd think off all that pure profit you can get and then go and sign a couple of "potential" international superstars! :levyeyes:
Palmer isn't a Chelsea academy player?
Am I the only one not that bothered?

If it was a substance that had a negative impact on performance I’d be much more annoyed.

I get the club need to take a stance because it’s illegal but he’s not one of our captains so all we need him to do is play well and be professional when he’s at work
It's not good for you at all.
There's been many cases of people ending up seriously ill.

Its not a great look , I have nephews and with Social media etc the connection they get with players these days is different to what it was back in the day, like my nephew was a really fussy eater but he saw something about Ronaldo ( I know dont go there) eating steak, all of a sudden all he wants to eat is steak - where I'm going with this is I feel players who wear the shirt need to realise Kids idolise them and set a good example - this isn't that!
Still I'm not saying we should sell him but Ange needs to have a quiet word with him and explain that this isn't the kind of thing he should be doing, and then ask him why he felt the need to film himself doing it and upload it to social media! I get players have lives as well and they need to relax but they also need to realise there are kids out there who will copy everything they do as they see them as idols and its their responsibility to set a good example.
 
It’s not great, Bob. Deki and Werner are at 3-4 per 90. The likes of Doku abd Saka 5-6.
See, this is where it gets interesting.
Deki took on and beat his man more often. But what did he do next? Did he put a dangers ball across the 6 yard box, or did he put his foot on the ball, and ultimately kill the play dead?
Did Werner beat his man and then assassinate Roy in Row Z?

And also, you can throw in the fact that each one of these players may have done more on the break, when there wasn't a man to take on anyway? Especially Werner and Johnson who have the pace to break the offside trap.

Stat are interesting, but sometimes they're just a part of a wider puzzle.
 
Doesn't matter really - they PAid £42 million for him so If they sold him to us for £80 million thats £40 million pure Profit for Todd to spend on some random player from the 3rd league in Brazil or something
This is not me being pedantic, I think it's just become a term in the world of PSR and FFP, but that would be just "profit"
"pure profit" is a term reserved for the selling of an academy player. This part I'm not sure about, but the "pure profit" deals may also sidestep the amortization process. IE, if you sell a purchased player, the income is spread over the 5 years or payment plan, but if you sell an academy product, it all goes in on Y1. Like I say though, I'm not 100% sure on that part.

Speaking of all that, looks like we might start getting linked to Gallagher again soon :roflmao:
