Kai Havertz

Could we get both Sancho and Havertz by selling some other high value player I wonder

Sancho is definitely NOT happening. Looks like were locked into Torres and thus we wont have another wing position open at all.

It's certainly more likely than five days ago.

Off to the It's Quiet thread!

Ahh, Now I see, why this thread got active

why is it a definite no?

I feel like if we miss out on Havertz it’ll be like when we missed out on Hazard when he came to Chelsea back then. Just has the same feeling to it.

why is it a definite no?

many reasons that make sense logical sense:

1) 0 links to the player in the media

2) I dont think Pep likes him

3) City are not going to spend 110m on Sancho who they sold only 2 years ago when there are way more pressing needs in the squad.

4) We have Sterling, Bernardo and Mahrez all who are absolutely world class at the moment on the wing. So spending 110m here is daft.

5) adding to point 4 youre better off buying sanes replacement as a young project winger example: Torres

6) Were most likely buying said Torres who weve had a crap load of links to

7) Due to the position not being a key need spending 20-40m euros on a winger in Torres is perfect

In saying all that id rather City go out and drop that kind of money on a position we WILL or DO need. Example: CB (2020 need) and ST (2021 need). Sancho is a buy the club can easily easily live without. If we had no holes in the squad and you need an excuse to spend money you go and get sancho because you have the luxury to do so. We do not.

So you put all these points together and put yourself in the shoes of hierarchy of the club who obviously have thought all these points ive listed and MORE. Would you still go after Sancho?

Dont get your hopes up, from what ive read and spoken to Chelsea fans their ITKs are saying its nailed on and a fee actually agreed around 90m pounds. Only issue is Bayer Leversuken want to keep him up until the EL finishes.

We got turned by Sanchez and Jorginho and Alves at the last minute. I still have hope. Sounds about right @tolmie's hairdoo ?

I dont have hope, all tolmie said was " we spoke to his agents " lol that could mean they were testing the waters to get a bigger contract from Chelsea or force Chelsea to speed up things.

We never hit big transfers. Like our biggest is still Rodri at 60m and id say our biggest ever in terms of "player" was KDB post FFP punishment era.

How come Bayern are not in for him ?

Because bayern (small b) only ever buy players on the cheap, players who they have continually and illegally openly tapped up through the media, and invariably encouraged to run their contracts down. bayern Munich are an utterly despicable cunnt of a club

Reminds me of a left-footed Firmino in lots of ways.

Could be an interesting option as a false 9.
