It's Quiet 17 - Glory Thread

[kun]

Wolves and Leicester this summer need to sell to buy looking at their fan pages etc. Weird why are they so strapped for cash.

covid?

I think the silence from the journalists ITK at City tells us everything we need to know in regards to this supposed Chelsea interest. If this was true I'm sure City would have confirmed by now that the ship has sailed on this deal.

Surprised as well in the quietness of this forums ITK's over the last few days.

Anyone seen or heard from that 93:20 fella????

Too darned quiet.

Not on here!

I agree.
Something is afoot

Any fee for left back now would have an extra 10 mil on it due to us selling zinchenko. Unless we go to Wolves who are broke this window

There are other ”broke” clubs, we will get someone for a fair price. Why would Benfica slap an extra 10m on Grimaldo when he has one year left on his contract?

It’s not like we have a bad relationship with them.

My guess is the original €8m asking price was never real. The real price was probably always €20m.

Otherwise someone would have taken him IMO. €8m always seemed really low.

Is Chelsea really bidding fofana for 80m WTF?

Are we really supposed to believe that we wouldn't pay 50m for Cucurella, but we're looking at £85m Fofana?

We do desperately need to sure up the left-back position, but I think the club is right to play it cool. We have Cancelo and Ake who can cover there. Laporte too when he's back.

Our squad is quite thin generally this season, but maybe that will keep the 'fringe' players a bit happier?

That's gotta be a WUM surely? He's not worth half that.
