It's Quiet 17 - Glory Thread

[LangleyBlue1970]

Be riots at the Bridge if they allowed that deal to happen. For us though, absolute ruthless business.

They will be after a reduction on Sterling and Ake together.
£95M for the pair should do it still decent money.

They need an entire new defence at present!

Which is why it makes zero sense for them to let James go, who is also a known Chelsea fan along with all his family .

Would love Reece James perfect long term Walker replacement , could even see pep playing Kyle rcb if this was to come off. I do wonder if James would be open to the move , maybe agitating for a new improved contract ?

 

[tolmie's hairdoo]

Phew, a full revolution of the squad now then!!!

It's not though really, is it.

We are selling players on the fringes, non-starters.

Raz, Gabby, Ake, Zin, Steffen, Torres, Bazunu, Fern, Gyani, Egan-Riley, Edozie, Porro.

That's almost £285m right there. All not guaranteed starters or fringe squad.

Haaland, Alvarez and Phillips in so far @ £110m.

Cucurella and more to follow.

It's a window for the ages.

No surprise if we asked about James, I said as much last week. Just can’t see any way whatsoever that the deal would happen though.

Personally, as much as I rate James, I’d much prefer to make sure we got Cucurella over the line first.

Zero sense for them but doesn't make it any less true that City have proposed James.

He knows we have been tracking him for a while.

We have asked about Reece James.

Ake and Raheem would be £110m.

They didn't really want to pay that, so we have proposed a solution.

It would mean James and £40m coming to us.

Thoughts?

I think we are very short at right-back and it would be a phenomenal deal?

We'd still have just 3 CB's for the season and Stones is injury prone. Means playing the same 2 CB's every 3 days at some point.

I hope Zinchenko stays as we'd be light for options at LB too if Ake goes.

Love that.

I’d be quite happy to see James in a City shirt, but with Cancelo and Walker already at our disposal, I wouldn’t describe us as ‘very short’ at right back. They also have decent injury records. If Ake is to be sold I’d be far more concerned about our levels of cover at centre half, where Stones and Laporte are regularly on the treatment table….

Pep must be buzzing though and it will energise him even further with new players to mould and rebuild a brand new machine to seek and destroy!
