Bids apparently rejected for Demiral, now that's a player we should be going for, half the price of Koulibaly ( 28 ) and only 21,

we already have Tomori, if we sign a CB it needs to be an experienced one.

His hardly played a game Matt. Just wondering how your are assessing him? Which competitive games has he shone?

For turkey in euro qualifiers, turkey have been solid, Christensen isn’t aggressive enough, there’s talk of ake and Koulibaly ( never happening )

Really hope the Gabriel rumours are not true. It'll be Alexandre Pato Mk. II.
Would rather throw Charlie Brown in the mix, or have a proper go at getting Werner/ Dembele. Seems like penny pinching again.

Ed has already stated Chelsea has no interest. No need to stress over this :)

I'm not too convinced about the rumours. So I wouldn't read into too much into it yet.

However, the comparison to Pato is far off the point. I will say that he is still young, his first attempt in Europe failed but he he played minimal games for Inter and he was a teenager back then and may have struggled to settle. He is scoring goals for fun again in Brazil which is not something Pato did and is no longer a teenager at 23. He knows where the back of the net is that is for sure. It's a risk but signing him for quoted fee isn't a bad back up option.

Also i wouldn't accuse Chelsea of penny pinching? Do you think think it is reasonable for Leipzig to sell Werner given that they are 1st in their league? Why would he want to move before the Euro's? We are not Manchester Utd and we shouldn't be by throwing ridiculous money around to get him now by giving inflated wages and give Leiozig ridiculous money which they can't refuse. Ed already explained the Dembele situation for January.

Lucas Piazon was 'scoring goals for fun' before he joined us - than what?

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed002's Note - How is LP relevant. And regardless of interest there has been an approach to Chelsea - I have no gotten to the point where the supporters will trash every player so there is little point in providing anything in detail.}

I find it hard judging players from South America, some look class but Europe isn’t always for them, Gabigol is apparently very fast and left footed very fiery and has had a pretty impressive goal scoring season, who knows, had my heart set on dembele / Werner and even sancho, none look like happening in January, a little pinch of Diego Costa in him and fight and pettiness upfront wouldn’t be bad thing?

Thanks Ed, I know where your coming from here. I don't understand myself why fans thrash players they know very little about themselves. I get the impression with some its either Wernee or no one. Jeez.

In no way was I "trashing" Lucas Piazon; I was pointing out that certain players had good goal-scoring records in their current leagues but seemed to be not quite up to Premier League standards when joining CFC, i. e. LP and Mateja Kezman. I certainly mean no disrepect to either of those two gentlemen, but was trying to point out the danger of using statistics from other nations or leagues as a given.
