The Mudryk saga absolutely sealed this for me. He was so obviously being paid to push Chelsea’s agenda.

In the end, I’m quite grateful in that case.

 

Lmao £25m?! Are they taking the piss?

 

GREAT QUESTION! Because we have apparently 0 desire to transition youth talent to the first team, I am not sure anyone can answer it for you since he never sees the field. He was included as part of the CWC roster only to ride the bench for most of it. That's the biggest reason he wants out, so he can see field time.

I'm very interested in seeing him fill the role while Davies is out with injury and give him a chance to prove himself this fall before he follows Vidovic, Kratzig, Tillman, Zirkzee, Yildiz, and others I'm sure I'm forgetting, out the door.

 

Chelsea news: Bayer Leverkusen interested in Raheem Sterling

Lmao, how did anyone at Leverkusen watch him playing for us last year and think "We can fix him"

 

I could be completely wrong…but the way I read this whole MGW thing is that the Forest owner knows he can’t prove Spurs did anything illegal when triggering the release clause. But he is still furious about it. So he is stalling the best he can, hoping another club swoops in and offers more so he can take that deal instead. And I think most clubs are more likely to steer clear of the drama. So I’d bet it eventually happens. But my god is it annoying.

 

I don't want to stereotype the Dutch, but ten Hag definitely visits certain cafes in Amsterdam.

 

“Tottenham have entered the race for Rodrygo” is something I just read. I want to be excited. But I know it isn’t real.

 

I’m not totally convinced Rodrygo is worth the money Madrid will get for him. I’d obviously be happy with it haha but 90m sounds crazy considering his production.

 

Just to add a wee update to the WTF are Celtic doing in the transfer window...

We start our league season in 12 days and there are reports stating we're letting our winger Yang, go to Norwich on loan presumably with an option. The principle of this is sound as Yang probably isn't good enough for us - the same with Luis Palma who has went to Poznan and Marco Tilio who is going to Rapid Vienna - but with these three wingers having left/reported to be leaving this week. We are now left with Maeda and Forrest as our only two senior wingers. This comes after a month old report stating we bid £1.5m for a winger and his team wanted £5m.

We'll see tomorrow when we fly to Italy for our final two friendlies if its the truth about Yang but to go into a league season with two senior wingers, with our bank balance and having sold Kuhn for £17m is a disgrace.
