Yeah and you expect me to believe that do you?

 

So we wait a season for Jude, hear he's available for £88m......decide against it and then bid £110m out the blue for someone we never even had as a target or wasn't first choice? How does that make sense. 

Klopp, Brighton’s chairman, Caicedo’s agent and Caicedo all said we had a bid accepted for him. 
 

We also bowed out of Bellingham has he hadn’t indicated he would move to us, we had to look elsewhere and didn’t know Hendo and Fabinho would be leaving. 
 

We had this discussion last summer I’ve no desire to go over it again.

Probably our fault that.

We do have an incredible knack of letting shite players score against us.

"Paul, Paul....they're gonna get you interviewed live on Sky later mate, yeah all you got to do is say you had an offer accepted from us mate, we know Chelsea are after him that's part of the deal to get them off our backs negotiating for Lavia"

As I said, I’ve no desire to go over it again.

 

I’ll stick to those who would know (ie the people I mentioned), you stick to your opinion.

Dwight Gayle will always be up there as the worst, worst situation too.

We bid more than that for a 21 year old last summer…

 

I think there is more chance we spend heavily on this lad than, say, Guimaraes.

 

He'd already proven himself in the Premier League though.

 

Neves looks talented, but also looks a bit lightweight. I doubt he's even on our radar. 

[TheHowieLama]

If a prospect like Neves is not on our radar we need new radar.

[Code]

We should test Arsenal and put in a bid for Ødegaard. 

[El Rojo]

If you can’t handle our radar when it isn’t working then you don’t deserve it when it’s at its best.

There’s no way I’m holding down four different keys at the same time on here to generate that weird Norwegian O all the time so absolutely not. 

[El Dangerous]

Cøde.

Kevin Lisbie scored a hattrick against us.

Reports Villa want £50m for Duran.

In an ordinary world he’d be a £20m player all day long

[joe_fishfish]

Have heard that Duran is meant to be very unprofessional and a bit of an idiot off the pitch. Sounds perfect for Chelsea.

Eg. Darwin Nunez

No idea on the source or if he’s any good…

 

This last has been linked with everyone hasn't he? Certainly I've seen both Manc clubs and Chelsea. Just feels like someone trying to get his deal over the line. 

[joe_fishfish]

Have heard that Jhon Duran is a bit of a liability off the pitch, lives with an entourage of his mates from Colombia and they all smashed up the place he was living to the extent the club had to get involved.

 

Sounds ideal for Chelsea.

Isn’t he a fan and was in their academy set up? Dodgy attitude as well apparently. 

 

And hamstrings. We need to fuck injury-prone prospects off, regardless of how good they may be when they're fit. We've already got Jota for that. I love Diogo, but it's so inevitable and frustrating when he picks up another injury that renders him inactive for sizeable part of a season.

 

That's not to say we'd want or should sign always fit, entitled dickheads, though.

Would he class as home-grown? He's been at Brentford a long time hasn't he?
