I doubt Sassuolo wants to let us have option if they are going to let an in form player leave on loan. If we get him it will be with obligation and for as much as Sassuolo can squeeze out of us

This is a good point and why I think this Sensi thing would not be a good deal.

Much rather Tielemens who will be more likely a loan option. Also trust Moncada's scouting ability more than candidates who seem to be from Mirabelli's database - Baselli, Duncan, Zaza etc.

The bidding war is on for Cagliari midfielder Nicolò Barella, as after Chelsea offered a reported €50m, Inter, Napoli and Manchester United respond.

QS: leo had deals with Ibra and Cesc but Elliot blocked both, coz of age.

This if true is very infuriating. So instead of Cesc and Ibra we go for Sensi and Gabbiadini cos of age.

Then why not Tonali, Barella, Lozano, SMS? Right age, potentially increase in value over time, although we should never be a selling club.

:thumbsup: Elliott knows how to do this. Any good CEO shouldn't let directors try to achieve short-term goals via quick fixes.

That seems weird. How do u strike a deal with them when Elliott was the owner the whole time in the first place?

We're almost a week in and not a peep has come from Leo. The biggest journalists admits they don't know what our plans are.

I hope next week bears fruits.

Good Q there. If they were gonna say 'no' then they'd say it the moment his name came up in the brainstorming session... not mere seconds b4 Cesc was abt to sign our contract.

If true that Elliott passes up on names like that, im sure they got something better in mind. Not the Sensi or Duncan types.

According to @86_longo, Shenzhen FC have not released any statements on their website regarding Borini

I think Borini will leave us. Media Bullshit that Shenzhen wont buy him.

Such a simple language to translate, you’d think google would have it on point by now.

Monaco paid €12M to Chelsea to sign Fabregas. (6 months before his contract expire)

Glad we didn't go for him then, would be a waste of money at that price

Honestly I don’t know why you guys think so high of jacks offensive game.

Bonaventura only difference from all our midfielders is his technical aspect.

that’s all cool but he’s not doing his job in the formation: being a midfielder.

Jack´s movement and compactness is much better than Hakan´s for example. His passing improved massively over the time he needed to adapt to CM.

What we miss most is his ability to convert crosses to attempts, his volley shooting is unmatched by any player in the squad, his attacking headers are among the best in the team and his off-ball movement is too. Sure he isn't the best playmaking midfielder in the world but in terms of balancing and adding some attacking power to a one-striker-system he is great
