Ben Chilwell

[Dazzle84]

That's not how I'm reading it. I see it as saying max. 4 association trained and that's how many we have now. Not sure if I'm reading it wrong as it makes no sense to me.

No, we have to have at least 8 association trained, of whom at least 4 need to be club trained. We're allowed a maximum 17 foreign players as long as we meet the first two criteria. Then there are different u21 and ''b-list" rules for premier League and CL respectively

So we can have more than four association-trained players among our eight nominees on List A?

No, what I meant was it doesn't matter if chilwell is/isn't association trained as long as we meet criteria on list A. So we wouldn't have to lose an association trained player any more than we'd have to lose a fringe foreign player.

Those regulations could be worded a whole lot more clearly though.

Agreed. I thought I new the deal but that has confused the fuck out of me.

Pain in the arse isn't it.

Anyway, back on topic - I'd love chilwell and think he's the next big thing at left back in England

You can have 25 if you want

 

[I'm With Stupid]

Is this one of those where a team beats us so we're suddenly linked to their best players? Like how we were gonna buy all of Lyon's players after they beat us?

Seems to the trend these day. All of sudden dude is a world beater just like that .

 

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

This could be another dud. I've got a thing about players called 'Ben' - Ben Thatcher, Tal Ben Haim! Benardo Corradi. The only exception was Ali Benarbia!

Benedikt Höwedes

 

[Blu KB]

He's a good player really like him. Leicester will rip us off though. Can't see it happening for under 60m

Benjani and Benjamin Mendy on the naughty list?

 

[LucahArchie10]

He plays exactly how a left back should, attacking the goaline & pin back the opposing teams left winger.

He can also put a decent ball in & links up well with midfield.

English & very young.
Delph & Zinchenko ain't LB & we have been very lucky with both of them.

When Sane is poor we get exposed down that side & we defend like Sunday league players.

Look at Robertson he looks a world beater for Liverpool, this kid is no different in fact with a ball playing team like City he would look just as good.

Even when Mendy gets fit he needs to show me some consistency because he was poor even before he got injured.

But we do have the Jorginho money sat there and Diaz off to Madrid for £13.5m?

Not likely, but perhaps their new chairman will be less difficult with to make a deal?

Benjani got a top mention at Ewing Towers this morning on the back of Harry Gregg's honour. And what was I saying about BenMend? He deserves a knighthood for his tweets etc. He'd never get one for his appearances on the turf! But, hey ho, he's still a young lad and he could change his name by deed poll to, say, Cliff Sear!

 

[Dave Ewing's Back 'eader]

Benedikt Höwedes

My preference for a goalie called Ben would have been Ben Turpin. He would have freaked out any striker about to take a pen. They wouldn't have know which fucking side to place it!

 

[Stoned Rose]

I like him but he’s not as good as the left back at West Ham whose name escapes me.

Defo better than Delph and Zin who are clearly not natural LBs.

 

[lasereyes]

Aaron Cresswell?

 

[birchwoodgingerste]

We aint signing anyone in jan.
Hopefully add him in the summer.
