Lemar, Coman...all i'm saying is that if this is going to really get drawn out, there are options where we could get two quality players for that price and improve a couple areas

I honestly don’t think you know what you’re talking about mate. It sounds like you’ve randomly picked names out of thin air and probably haven’t watched either more than twice in the last two years.

I may be wrong though.

Can’t shake the feeling that he’ll eventually end up back at City

Maybe not this summer though.

If they won't budge on the 100 plus price then use that money and get Upamecano and Sarr. Those two combined have got to be roughly what we'd pay for Sancho.

Then if we still want Sancho go back in for him next summer. Other teams may be sniffing around as well but thats the chance you take if you don't want to pay the asking price this summer.

This transfer saga is going sour really quickly. I'd love to just throw it at Ronaldo instead. Ultra fit legend with a good few years left in him, and scores goals for fun all around Europe. It'd be nice to have a striker that can score with his head as well.

Look at the difference Zlatan made when he came in for a season, and Ronaldo is still well beyond where he was at the time.

Yeah I’d be opposed to anyone over the age of 30 normally but hasn’t he been scoring for fun for Juve too? And the lift he would give the rest of the team - the Portuguese connection with Bruno - it’s all coming together.

I miss him lads

Big Ron wants to stay at Juve. Seems determined to win the CL with them..

I don't reckon we'll be getting Sancho, Dortmund want to hold on for an auction next summer and he doesn't seem overly arsed. Perfect excuse for our owners to pocket the cash on the pretence of holding it to get into the auction next summer

Could be in for Sarr, Upamecano, any number of midfielders, Havertz etc. will end up with the hugely underwhelming Grealish for a massively overblown price. Linked with Chilwell at £80m today too Going to be a shit window of too few signings and sales..

Chilwell is clearly to push Chelsea along.

I know, still funny. How much do they think Chelsea are spending this summer ffs?

Havertz
Chilwell
Giminez
Rice
Oblak

All asking for £80m+ on top of the signings they've already made

I’m surprised Abramovich hasn’t gotten bored by now.

Arsed about Sancho. He looks decent from the very little I've seen of him, but everyone seems to shine over there.

I would like Upamecano though, wonderful name.

admit i haven't seen much of lemar or atleti this year but i've seen Coman plenty of the past year or so....yes they were just names selected not guys i expect Ole to go after but more so just pointing out that the opportunity is there to get two very good players for the price you'll spend on Sancho

what i don't want to see is a prolonged transfer for sancho where we ultimately end up holding our d*ck in our hand and miss out on everyone and end up signing a fellaini for 30m on the last day of the window

He views Chelsea as his son's inheritance.

Daddy robs his country's people blind to the tune of billions, and uses the loot to buy an English football club with a stadium sat on the most valuable real estate in European sport.

Decent work if you can get it. Disgusting family.

Coman spends 3-4 months of every season injured, or seems to.

definite valid point on Coman....

i think any alternative player is gonna cost us 40-50m....so if not sancho, who? is the preference a right footed right winger or left footed an invert like we do with Greenwood?

problem there is having a right back that can help offer the width and put crosses in the box that are somewhat effective

What about that Croation lad who was at Internazionale?

But we can’t buy just any old player simply because the price is right and the Sancho deal is taking too long. The is exactly the con job we’re hoping to pull on another team to take Lingard off our hands, namely England international, winning goal in cup final etc etc. it’s all %@#$&!s because we know he’s rubbish; we can’t fall for the same trick. There’s a reason these players are cheap and don’t play much, same for Dembele at Barcelona.

Dembele didn't go to Barca cheap and he hasn't played for them b/c he's there version of Saha...the dude is made of glass which is a shame b/c he was brilliant at Dortmund

i certainly don't want us to buy any player b/c that is what got us in the mess right now with the crap that Moyes and LVG bought.

however, if we wait until the last couple weeks of the window and can't get Sancho then we've put ourselves in the exact position we did when Moyes bought Felaini....a panic buy

Mate any chance you could have a day or two off b/c you’re giving me a headache

We're gonna end up with Grealish on deadline day.
