Ed lots of reports claim that any deal involving Morata would likely mean Real Madrid buying him back and selling him on for much higher fee. I thought the buy back clause meant Juventus just have to accept the bid but can they not just sell him to anyone else for slightly higher than the clause? thanks.

Andre Gomes is one player I wish the club would push for. He's so good and still really young. Hope we go for him over Niangolan, but think that's unlikely.

Whilst he's a big lad, I would worry about his physicality when it comes to the prem as he seems to get pushed about a fair bit. He's also quite in and out of all the matches I've seen him involved in. I like the look of Joao Mario, looks a tidy player. I personally think a midfielder like Nainggolan who can run all match and is also technically sound and a willing shooter is essential for our team. We need a bit of steel in our midfielder and he's certainly offer that.

I think Gomes offers nothing more than Oscar, we need to sign players that give us something we don't have. Nainggolan would be that type of player, but I also think matic could be that box to box player, if we had kante protecting the defence. When a new manager comes in he most of the time signs players from his own nationality, I'm wondering what Italian players would fans like to see at the bridge.

The problem I have with Matic as a 'box to box' is no goal threat, even shockingly from set pieces despite his height. (I don't remember the last header he scored) If he stays back and we get a dm good at passing and shooting then OK.

Ed sorry to ask a non cfc related question, but should russia be disqualified would wales and slovakia receive 3-0 wins would englands result also be changed to a win how would it work?

{Ed002's Note - All of their results would be removed as though they never took part in the tournament. This makes it difficult for the third placed team in the group but only if Slovakia were to beat England.}

Napoli president Aurelio De Laurentiis has threatened to sue Chelsea over their proposed move for defender Kalidou Koulibaly

I saw those articles also with quotes from the Napoli president who seems to be more angry with the player, who made remarks about reaching out to 'big clubs interested in him' due to Napoli not increasing his wages on a new deal. The player never mentioned Chelsea by name and this seems like the usual player/ agent spin to get higher wages/ new contract but the Napoli president imo has overreacted saying a club must have influenced the player and the comments by the player has cost Napoli millions in pending TV deals and the player's kit sales. It seems bizzare and messy and personal similar to last year's Everton saga.
