SNSUN Posted 23 June, 2019 Share Posted 23 June, 2019 Leandro Trossard move to Brighton imminent. Shows that Genk are selling if the price is right. (I.e Maehle) Trossard has good stats on paper, but can he make the step up, as Jahanbakhsh and even our own Elyounoussi have failed to do? We shall see. Has been linked with Arsenal though.

John D Posted 24 June, 2019 Share Posted 24 June, 2019 Is the Geordies gripe with Ashley that he won't invest his own cash? Or has he taken money out or refused to allow generated funds to be spent and they are sitting on loads of cash? Just wondering why they hate him so much, but then it is Ashley so perhaps no rational reason needed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SNSUN Posted 25 June, 2019 Share Posted 25 June, 2019 Seems a decent bit of business, was highly regarded a few years ago. Scored about 9 league goals in 5 years or something. Was a good young player but career decimated with injuries. Very risky signing even on a free. Mind you they already have their main striker so I guess it's not so bad.

SNSUN Posted 25 June, 2019 Share Posted 25 June, 2019 I think Lampard is a good choice for Chelsea this time. OK, he has inexperience in management and of course a massive piece of the Chelsea jigsaw has been sold in Hazard, but he knows the club inside and out, probably knows most of the youth and even had the likes of Tomori and Mount on loan last year, and in a season when they have a transfer ban, I think it's good chance for their youth/fringe to get some experience. Now if they'd only done that when the likes or de Bruyne and Salah weren't good enough for them... Besides, they'll sack whoever is appointed in a year's time anyway, so it's moot whoever they get.

He had a few standout results and n the cups, but to be truthful against us we should have buried them. In the playoff game against Leeds when they were losing and looking out, he as forced to bring on a sub due to injury who changed th game, not due to managerial brilliance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SNSUN Posted 26 June, 2019 Share Posted 26 June, 2019 Aaron Wan-Bissaka 50 million He is heavily overpriced (£45 million up front acc. to the Beeb) because he's young, British and came from a Premier League club, but despite his recent wobbly showing for the U21s, he still has decent stats from last season, and him and Shaw (with Dalot behind them) would sort their full back slots out long term.

Now they just need two decent centre backs in the middle of them! He was absolutely rock sold for Palace last season. No one caused him a problem. Everyone keeps saying teams need defenders that can defend and he can certainly do that. The question is, can he offer a threat going forward? Maybe he will be a Gary Neville and just keep it relatively simple and that will be enough. To me this feels like a very good signing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should have bought him at the time anyway as he often played in the middle. Would have been a much better option than Hoedt and provided an automatic replacement for Bertie (not to mention cover). I think the £25m+ price tag back then may have been prohibitive, but we should have pushed the boat out and saved elsewhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
