MorataFC:

Nassr are in advanced talks to sign João Félix and hijack Benfica’s move! Al Nassr has sent a permanent deal proposal to Chelsea and a contract proposal to João.

The agreement is close, as final details are set to be discussed in the next 24/48 hours.

First bid for jorrel hato rejected with ajax demanding €60m and that's too much for a bench warmer.

Chelsea should go for cuiabano from botafogo
Cuiabano na another top player. But I doubt he’s really 22, Brazilians and Africans dey very sharp at age cheating.

I heard Forest wan carry am.

I'm done having to debate this back to back .. You all know why that happened..


EPL would be the grand revelation if there was no luck and fatigue or not ..

It's painful you wouldn't be playing in CL cause I would love to see so much you being paired with PSG again .. I kuku trust uefa , they would have a found a way to make you guys meet but world best club is not even in CHAMPIONS LEAGUE.. That's a show of shame ....

Yes please. This one has been waiting in the wings for a while. We could get the deal done with a player plus fee.
I think we should throw Badiashile into that deal.

Hato can fill his LCB position with ease while also being Cucurellas fill-up.

Airmark Ibime Nateevs Griffon Swiz123 bluemann lordfalcao

with this squad what are our top four chances next season if we don't add anyone else
That attack can go all the way to win you the title.

Palmer (Estevao) -> Joao Pedro (Delap) -> Neto (Gittens)

That defense still needs some reinforcements. Heard we are tying up a deal for Hato, that’s one boy that can come in for Cucurella anytime albeit he looks pretty good playing as a LCB.

Despite our good outing at the CWC, I have little faith in our CB options. The league is a marathon and I can’t honestly trust what we have in that area to stay rock solid all season. I’ve always wanted Guehi here.

James (Gusto) -> Guehi (Chalobah) -> Colwill (Tosin) -> Cucurella (Hato)

The CM position is looking good with the additions of Santos and Essugio. If Maresca will listen and stick to three in the middle, then we need to sort Lavia’s condition out by either moving him or fixing him forever.

Enzo (Essugio) -> Caicedo (Santos) -> Camavinga (KDH)

Don’t touch Robert Dida Sanchez.

Solid core with a decent squad depth than can handle the league, Cups and UCL.

Chelsea have held fresh talks for Ajax defender Jorrel Hato as they explore defensive reinforcements.

Ajax want £60m, but Chelsea are hoping for closer to £40m.

Expect Isak to join Liverpool and Etikite moving to St. James park as his replacement.

It could just play out this way.

Chelsea’s victory over Paris SG in the final is expected to help the club secure a new FOS sponsor that could be worth £100m more than the offers they resisted last year.

#CFC in talks with 7—10 big global companies over a long-term FOS sponsorship.
Success has many friends.

Just barely two months ago, none of these brands and companies were looking our away.

Frank Leboeuf: "They [Chelsea] were strong in the middle of the park. Enzo Fernandez, Caicedo and James were above the three PSG midfielders, who are considered the best in the world."
Shey you and Joezinho talk say my idea of matching them numerically in the midfield doesn’t matter?

How come you’re on this train?

Are games won and lost in the middle of the park?

The £100m talk for Jackson is just yanga to try to get £50m from him

Although I saw JP as a goalscoring winger, his movement for the third goal was a classic no9 movement. He stepped back to measure the offside trap and also confuse the defender, then quickly made his run

One thing I know about wingers or AMs that convert to no9 is once they taste blood as a no9, they will never want to step back to their former position. It happened to me in Uni football. I knew I would score easily as no9 and once I convinced my captain to move me there and started scoring immediately, I never considered myself anything other than a striker until an injury layoff ultimately sent me back to CB.

I have seen it happen to Van Persie, Luis Suarez, Lewandowski, Arnautovic and Michael Antonio who all played wings or midfield in the case of Lewandowski. Once they taste blood, they will not want to go back to their former position and JP is looking like that kind of person to me which means Jackson is now 3rd on the bench and should be thrown away

I mean check this movement for the goal, how he quickly stepped back to measure the offside trap and confuse the defender before making his final run. His hold up play and strength was also very good in the game, although against Beraldo
who is somewhat physically weak.

The same people who support Enzo are those who want him and a No10 together and see no gaps in midfield with such a set-up

Ultimately we anti-no 10s who like to see 3 traditional CMs and no No10 are the ones vindicated

And if we must see a no 10, Enzo cannot be one of the two DMs behind him
I can only imagine how suicidal that would have been last night.

Enzo can have his flowers, he put in a good shift still but I never and never wanted him with just Caicedo. Maresca got that one spot on.

If you check, Joao Pedro made a run that made Vitinha start to leave Palmer to chase JP, expecting Beraldo to shut down Palmer

It's a standard move, but Beraldo did not cover Palmer as he was similarly distracted by JP, causing Vitinha to return to Palmer after switching his stance to chase JP, but by then Palmer already had the 5 yards to get his shot away. You can watch the video, also highlighted below what Vitinha was expecting Beraldo to do while he covers JP. Vitinha showed good pace and robustness in that move but was ultimately undone by the JP run causing a miscommunication with Beraldo

https://youtube.com/shorts/OJz2_-3aBDo?si=WebDW-OU6ir46V4J

The main ghost worker is our CM than cannot be trusted in a 2 man midfield, but at least we made tactical adjustment to accommodate him with 2 DMs behind him
The last lines though.

Talked about keeping things compact by fielding a three man midfield but some folks talk say PSG no dey see opponent midfield play.

Baba,you can put 3 men in midfield and still get exposed if your full-backs and wide players aren’t locked in.

Dembele and co don’t wait for midfielders to string 10 passes.. The key isn’t numbers in midfield, it’s cutting passing lanes early and not getting dragged into unnecessary duels in central areas. PSG punishes overcommitment just as fast as they punish under-commitment…
How far gee?
