Would rather keep Gilmour than Barkley tbh
Sending him to Villa doesn’t sound like it would benefit Billy. More an appeasement.

We would have been better off this season keeping Ross though and not buying Havertz in the first place. At least under Lampard.

Fair play Oscar

Irrespective of Frank's shortcomings as a Manager...I still maintain he has been woefully let down by some players of late

Priority jobs for Tuchy

Werner...learn how to play basic football again
Pulisic/Havertz/Ziyech - Baulk up & man up, spend less time on the floor & more time being potentially brilliant (it's in there)
Tammy - put your legs on the right way round (& play like you did this week)
Kova - score more, retain the ball more
Billy - Use him, teach him

& if you can get a tune out of AC/Kepa/JorgEmerson - that'll be brilliant

Tuchel’ first request of the club would not have been predicted by many. Requests club immediately recall Ross Barkley from Aston Villa loan. Club have agreed and now working to find solution with Aston Villa #cfc
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Not sure how I feel about Tuchel now

It'll be interesting to see what he does with our midfield. Also, if Barkley is coming back, won't he be in direct competition with Havertz...?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
In terms of squad balance, that is a good call from Tuchel. If true of course.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Rumours he falls out with teams and boards, so this should be fun.

And he is a football nerd, I to stats etc......what have we done lol

The only certainty is uncertainty.

Sounded very plausible in my head - and I still think Gilmour is probably the biggest ? in all this when it comes players.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Same but in general it’s very rare loans get terminated especially if it’s nothing to do with lack of playing time

To be fair I’d be happy as well I like Barkley, adds a goal threat
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I wouldn't have an issue bringing back Barkley mate - but I would rather sell Jorginho.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Agree

Jorginho & Alonso shouldn’t even be squad players

Attacking wise we actually somehow have a worse team than last season.

From Ross to Kai.
Werner hasn’t been better than Giroud/Tammy or even Pedro.
Pulisic wasn’t as injured last season and when he was playing he was better.
Ziyech is the obvious addition but he’s been injured a lot, so Willian helped the team more by this stage last season just by playing more.

Disappointing everyone was happy thought people would be p!ssed offI made it up
----------------------------------------------------------------------


I am so gullible.

I thought that was decisive and intriguing decision by an incoming manager

Damn you Oscar

He should have gone the Alonso route for the reaction he wanted

But then I would have actually gone and checked Laws timeline

Could change quick

Mount has gone from looking 12 to 24 in one season

75 percent refund plus Gilmour is a really plausible deal
----------------------------------------------------------------------


I thought the sticky point was the first word I couldn’t work out whether to go with Tuchel, Tuchel’s or Tuchel’. The middle is more like my style or how I’d say it so I went with 3 lol
