Does his club need to sell because of PSR, or has it been relegated or has he gone on strike to get a move or is his contract nearly up?
So why would you want to sign someone who downs tools when the going gets tough?
Looks like he's totally polarized the West Ham fan base with half wanting him gone due to him being disruptive.
We already have a mob of flaky players who turn up when they fancy it and you want to bring in another.
Make it make sense
Chelsea’s manager has even less experience of even managing a big club before he joined them. What about Slot, didn’t exactly come from one of the major leagues.
Lots of our fans want Romero to go and he's our best player. Our fans were pretty relaxed about the Carrick, Walker and Trippier sales as well.
He says as he arranges his neon hair into three separate spikes in opposite directions
'Anything can happen' - Romano refuses to rule out Traore to Spurs transfer
Fabrizio Romano has told the Last Word On Spurs podcast that Adama Traore could still join Tottenham Hotspur before the transfer deadline on Tuesday as...www.spurs-web.com
Tottenham have already offered a £5m loan with an option to buy but Wolves have rejected it and they value the 25-year-old at £40m. Spurs were also said to be keen on a loan with an obligation to buy for £40m next summer.
Wolves beat back Tottenham loan-to-buy offer for Adama Traore
Welp, shucks, we tried Nuno, sorry.cartilagefreecaptain.sbnation.com
Spurs had been working on a deal for Traore, a player with whom Nuno Espirito Santo loved working with from his years as Wolves manager, over the past week. There were transfer fees of £40m mooted, which seems like a lot for a swole dribble monster with an unproven record of finishing.
Tottenham transfer news: Adama Traore desperate to seal Spurs switch
The Wolves winger is the target of interest from Nuno Espirito Santowww.fourfourtwo.com
Mendes has proposed a £34m move to Tottenham for Traore, with Wolves then given the chance to sign Goncalo Guedes as a replacement.
The Valencia winger would be available for around £21.5m, but both Premier League clubs would have to move fast to put everything in place.
It is also unclear whether Tottenham have the funds to meet a £34m asking price.
Dismisses ex-spurs player Robinson as being even remotely "in the know"...
...uses "Spurs Web" and "Cartilage Free Captain", "Four Four Two Staff" as sources
Tottenham in talks with Wolves over Adama Traoré and close in on Pape Sarr
Tottenham are in talks with Wolves over a potential deal for Adama Traoré and look set to complete a deal for highly-rated teenage midfielder Pape Sarr from Metzwww.theguardian.com
Among the options for Spurs could be an attempt to sign Traoré on loan with an option to make his move permanent for around £40m.
"options"..."could be". Sounds far more confident. Regardless, how much do you reckon a loan fee would be there... (£10m + £40m, previous history on other transfer suggest?)
I mean, why are you even obsessing over this - make a pretty throwaway comment about a previous transfer link and you're scouring the internet from three years ago and dismissing an ex-player's opinion just to, I assume, be right about something. Bit weird.
inter and nottingham forest been linked for awhile now but no one seems to bite
if he impresses against Chelsea at the weekend i'm sure that clown outfit will offer him a 10 year contract and bring him back to London with them tho
Levy, on Monday..."We want to win the Premier League....and the Champions League"
Levy, on Tuesday..."I am delighted to announce Thomas Frank. Who hasn't won a thing in his managerial career"
Chelsea has previously used selling for high prices to their US owners Saudi mates as a way to balance the books. It is hard to do that now with the shitstorm going on in the Middle East meaning players don’t want to go there even for crazy money.
I think he said it - I don't think he coined the phrase though.
And Levy on Wednesday... we tried for target A but it was hard.
We then went for an alternative option that, once they have eaten their Farleys rusk and gone to playground, Frank will be able to develop and be happy with him.
Just noticed that Reguilon left on a free.
Another slice of ineptitude from Levy and co.
I seem to remember having offers back before we loaned him to United but we didn't take them and now he goes for nothing.
Another inspiring piece of business.

See, I think Son has been going down hill since before Kane went. As great as Kane was, we definitely needed to spread the goals out more too, so we're on the path to doing that. I wouldn't be surprised if we're up and around the top 6 this season for the whole season.
Errr I think they call it creative accounting these days, get with the times.
just read the sad news about Jota killed in a car crash.
RIP Jota.

If you want the owners of THFC to sell assets owned by THFC to ENIC then ENIC (Lewis family trust) has the resources to do it but I suspect we would all call foul (especially those of us who are small shareholders in THFC).
Without looking into the detail, what Chelsea have done is sell an asset from one subsidiary of the equivalent of THFC to another subsidiary of the equivalent of THFC and realising a paper profit in the process which satisfies PSR. It’s absolute cheating the system but eventually you have to pay the piper. Realising profit now means you realise loss later. Clearlake Capital is an investment fund, it’s not Sir Jack Walker wanting to have a football club plaything with his vast wealth.
My preference is to sign someone who is actually good, relitavely young with high potential and an excellent profile for for our squad, Kudus ticks those boxes.
RE: downing tools
That's why you bring in a manager who is known for getting the most out of players and fostering a good enviroment for them, unless you're banking on the manager being a flop...?
Kudus is 24, plenty of time for him to iron out that attitude
