Makes sense that Maitland-Niles is going to Wolves now. With Doherty going to Spurs (good signing, by the way), you'd expect AMN to be Wolves' first choice right wing back.

 

[Devil may care]

Maybe we just know he isn't interested?

Perhaps but he was before and Liverpool seemed reluctant to pay the £30M, meanwhile we aren't even getting linked to a CM, all we are getting are endless Sancho recycling and covid excuses, I just hope fans realize that there's a gulf between Liverpool, City and the rest, Chelsea are the only team trying to claw them back, if nothing gets done in the next month then what follows isn't on Ole.

 

[AsonUnique]

Why so cheap?! Is his contract nearing end? Tonali is mega talented. He's basically a Pirlo regen.

Nothing like Pirlo except the hair and nationality.

Dynamic player, runs more in one game than Pirlo did in the last 5 years of his career.

Would happily pass on Jack for him but unfortunately the scousers will have this one sewn up like they did with Fabinho

 

[Ramshock]

Did we sign that Serbian kid Stevanovic or not?

He isn't.

Andy Mitten denied the story himself after the Partizan Belgrade vice president talked about negotiations with United for the player. Since then, there have been no updates.

 

[ReallyUSA]

He was highly rated in the Serie A before he came to us...

Even after, I remember Inter, Juve, and I believe another team was trying to sign him. I think I saw him play once, and he seemed to still be solid. Hope he gets his dream move.

Inter and Brescia finally come to an agreement over Sandro Tonali.

Sandro will go to Inter on a loan with an obligation to buy (30 million Euros + 5 million in bonuses).

So many deals happening for reasonable fees. So much for the whole narrative that you need 50 million for every signing.

 

[amolbhatia50k]

And you'd think that's the sort of player we really need to improve the build up play. But nah, we have zero creativity in our transfer business.

These fees go up when United are involved.

 

[amolbhatia50k]

These fees go up when United are involved.

We got Blind for a reasonable fee. Liverpool got Allison for a huge fee and Robertson for a small fee. It depends on the deal. The United premium is not as significant as made out to be and much has to do with talent identification and us setting precedents which we only have to reverse.

 

[The Urban Goose]

It's almost like even the usual bullshit merchants realise making up a rumour about us buying someone this summer is so ridiculous that there's no point.

 

[RashysTekkers]

Have you watched him play to make that statement ? Because he's absolutely not a Pirlo regen. He runs / tackles much more than Pirlo. And his passing is nowhere near Pirlo yet.

 

[manuchamp88]

And you'd think that's the sort of player we really need to improve the build up play. But nah, we have zero creativity in our transfer business.

The only thing I can tell myself (ignoring our usual incompetence) is that we know he wants to stay in Italy. I dunno if that's true but I can imagine it being the case.

 

[Pep's Suit]

I don't like him but he's not totally unreliable. Most recent one he got right being Doherty to Spurs also first to report Chelsea's interest in Maignan. He's not the only one saying Messi prefers going to City. Same reports in Spain etc.

Actually Castles' been the best City source for last 3 years.

Story checks out. Please make me a mod for a day I will permanently ban anybody with the mentaility of a 9 year old who posts "chelski" or "Shity" or "Liverpoo".



Cech is a key element I think, big advantage having an insanely intelligent and articulate guy that speaks like 57 languages dealing with clubs, agents and players.

Whilst Cech is an element of making these transfers happen, I think the money is probably a bigger incentive for them to join!!
All three are on a massive wage increase from previous clubs, all three would see Chelsea as an upgrade, so doesn't really need much convincing,
Also, no one else really seemed to be in for any of the the players mentioned giving you a free run.

Ederson, Cancel, Bernardo Silva and Otamendi are all Mendes clients

 

[sparx99]

So at the moment the only two players we’re being somewhat linked to are Sancho and Badiashile, right?

Not just these but also Dani Alves and others.

I hate these cryptic tweets, because they are designed to let people's wild imaginations run amok. Ordinarily I would look at Sid's tweet and think it's about Havertz or Silva about to be announced, but we've known that's happening for a long time now, so if it's not that, I wonder what it is. Chelsea fans in the replies are obviously going crazy with gifs of Oblak and pictures of Messi in a Chelsea kit.

Can be anything.

You have a big thank you to give city's lawyers for ending ffp.

City would probably win the CL with Messi.

Cos Barcelona have been so good at winning the champions league lately..........................................

He posted that just after retweeting an article saying Chilwell had signed. I think you’ll get a keeper in but doubt it’ll be Oblak.

Brooks, Grealish and somewhat Van De Beek

Dammit haha. I was really hoping he had just got off the phone to Messi himself who told him he's desperate to play alongside Chilwell.

 

[DomesticTadpole]

So if Messi joins City does that mean they will wangle it that City will be on the TV every single week.

Just take a second and imagine if we were in for him. I swear every club has just come together to be a dick to us. 15m is a joke.

Seems absolutely insanely cheap unless he's down to one year left on his deal.
He'd be double or triple to us for sure

Yeah seems very odd.

Messi doesn't win his teams a CL anymore. The times where you, at the very top level, could get away with a player who doesn't work for his team are over.
