Livramento looked an exciting prospect before his injury.

Yeah, also doubt he’d want to come back to play second fiddle to James but I’d rather try and bring him back than buy random players from the Italian league.

What? He looked great out there. Very impressive debut.

You are very easily pleased. I thought he showed his City form - a few flashes of ‘almost’ but mostly ‘shite’. Enjoy two seasons of this……

Was referring to Cucurella sorry. Sterling was okay. Nothing amazing, but was impressed with Cucurella.
 
Chelsea were functional today. Jury still out as to where they're at. Thought they created next to fuck all. Everton wouldn't have created a goal scoring chance if they played until next week, no quality up front. WTF was Doucoure doing when there was a defender in front of Chilwell even if it was Mina the moaner.
 
Just posted this in the transfer forum but was told last night they are negotiating with Barcelona over De Jong and are trying to work out a package about his unpaid wages which the rags are unwilling to do
 
Chelsea looked like Tuchel has told the team to be dirtier and smarter this year. They started time wasting very early, only seemed to care about the 3 points and not scoring any more. Similiar to Atletico or Real.
 
Sterling ending up in another false 9 formation straight away is pretty funny

Timo Werner going back to the same club Chelsea bought him from two years ago for £20m less than they paid for him shortly after sending Lukaku back on loan to the same club they bought him from a year ago for £97.5m.

Imagine if that was us.

New ownership undoing previous ownership mistakes. Plausible deniability. Or at least that is how Boehly and co will frame it if they’re ever asked this question.

Yeah, that's a fair point.

You'll obviously know more than me but it didn't look like Tuchel even wanted Lukaku in the first place.

They're getting a bit like those young ladies who buy shoes on line, wear them once, don't feel right in them and return them back to the supplier.
 



If we call him The Fof then that'll make up for spending £80m-£90m on him.

De Jong and Aubameyang as well, that's a £300m+ transfer window.

Anything other than a title challenge is an abject failure.

I was thinking £250 to £300m in this window…. That’s a big window and must have implications for future spending. I guess they have a few assets out on loan like Lukaku but I’m guessing they are subsidising wages and won’t recover even half of the £100m fee from Inter.
