I don’t think he is pacy or has the dribbling ability that we require on our right flank.

We aren’t going to buy any players this January. We don’t even know who are next permanent manager is going to be. So I don’t see we why we would spend money on players the next manager might not want.
At this point, what's the point? Chelsea had this kid raring to go but they splashed a tonne on Pulisic instead, and if reports are to be believed tonight they are also chasing Leon Bailey, he's better off going to Bayern.
Shocking considering Rashford didn't earn that much, even at 21.
He would be stupid to take this.
He can easily make this money and more in future if he goes and does well at Bayern.
Imagine being offered that amount of money at his age. You cannot call him stupid.
I think he should take it. He's only 18 and has already played a decent amount. Just compare to Gomes who is the same age. I don't think I would say the same for other Chelsea youth products as Chelsea have not proven they give time to anyone else other than CHO.
He should get in his contract a clause like Thiago did, if he doesn't play a certain amount of minutes in a season he can leave for a set price.
He shouldn't take it if he wants to develop as a player. Chelsea will be happy to put him on the loan merry-go-round. That said, Bayern are probably too big a club for him too at this point. A team like Leipzig that can offer regular first team football to him would be best.
70k a week for an 18 year old who's played 4 games in 2 years, joke of a club
Are we just being used to push the price up here or are we genuinely interested? Anyone seen him play? Worth the hype?
I hope he doesn't sign it. Imagine being the best played reserve player never to break through at Chelsea? Joke of a club, him and RLC should leave ASAP.70k a week for an 18 year old who's played 4 games in 2 years, joke of a club
They definitely should, not the club any young plsyer should stay at if they want to develop and play.
It's the same at City. They've been talking for years about these great youth academies, light years ahead of the facilities available at United, all the best talent being snapped up. All the while, United have had a youth academy product in the team every week since the 60's and nothing ever comes out of these plastic clubs.
He'd have to compete with Coman, Gnabry and Davies. 2 of them usually pick up enough injuries to miss out on half a season. This is basically a once in a lifetime opportunity.
Another journalist who constantly defends City’s transfer policy. They literally just spent £67m on a CB and a substitute winger but apparently their transfer strategy is changing. Full of shit.
I hope we offer him guaranteed playing time in the contract and a release clause for a reasonable amount if not met. As a Chelsea fan I don't want to see him rotting on the bench, would rather we develop him but if we're not going to bother may as well let him go to a club who will.
He's an attacker. If he does well on his career he can up to 4 or 5 times that. This is just short term thinking.
At Bayern he is going to a proper club that promotes talent and protects them.. With good performances he could easily be making that money in two years. Probably much more. Being seduced by Chelsea's money would be very stupid imo..
He has seemingly been brought into the team largely due to this contract issue.
But it's more than just that for me.. Bayern are a great club. A great institution. As a youngster I'd rather be at Bayern than Chelsea.
Don't agree with him just being in Chelsea team due to his contract, Willian has been awful, good goal last week aside he's barely contributed in the last few months. I think it was the game before he was dreadful, miscontrolling simple passes and letting the ball run out of play on multiple occasions. I'd bite Barcelona's hand off to if they're really offering £40m and put CHO as a regular in his place for the rest of the season. Plus the triple H forward line has a nice ring to it if we get our targets in.
With the threat of missing out on the top 4 it's not likely your club change their whole thinking that quickly. They'll stick by the experience and hope it gets them over the line
I think he's quick enough (no Rashford though) and is a reasonable dribbler. He's also technically sound and can be a decent play maker.
Excellent posts
Xavi is a better/greater player of course. That said,
1) The French league - the league of farmers - is not very visible.
3) Some PSG coaches made some strange mistakes in the most critical games in the latest stages of the Champions League
2) Xavi was part of the Golden era of Spain (versus Squadra Azzurra in trouble) and Barcelona, and benefited from a better environment particularly in the following positions:
#6 = Prime Busquets versus Lo Celso against Madrid last season/Motta in his 30s
#8 = Prime Iniesta versus Matuidi or Rabiot
Right-wing = Prime Messi versus Ménez, Lucas Moura, Cavani, Di Maria, M'bappé the last season only
From the bench or stadium stands
In terms of playmaking, keeping the ball and dictating the tempo, a Paredes, De Jong and Verratti midfield would be ridiculous, even if i doubt they will all start at the same time too often.
Hmm, it's almost like they want us to bid more . I would say let PSG have him if they want to spend big money. Sarri can adapt the system around the players we have to rest Jorginho.
Wouldn't touch this with a 10 ft pole. Why would Porto be pushing for him to go now for E50m when his buyout increases to E75m in May? My thought would be that he isn't worth the E50m they want for him now and in another 6 months of playing he certainly wont be worth the E75m and probably not even the E50m. Didnt he join the club in the summer just gone? Definitely having a purple patch and Porto want to cash in.
That's what I had said the other day on here. All of these players are kind of Deep Lying Playmakers (though De Jong could adapt his game to a different role) and having even 3 such players in their squad is a bit much, never mind 4. Makes me wonder, are they gonna be moving Verratti?
Parades for 35 will be one of the signings we will regret later(for not even trying) Good replacement for Matic.
DM is one position where we should absolutely not be making any signings without knowing who our manager will be.
