Mate come on

He’s a double winner.

Brap Vs Kramer?

A dispute that can only be argued with stats?

I’m putting the popcorn on for this one!

[TheRam]

Championship, conference league and club World Cup all in the last two years.

Serial winner.

Mate come on

As I said, Chelsea sign a shitload of players every year. It's not a normal environment, where he's being ''bombed out'' as you put it. They move players in and out like cattle. It's a human trafficking operation at this point.

That he hasn't dislodged 2 x 100m+ midfielders and a 60m+ teenager in his position isn't remotely a reflection on him imo. I think it'll be to our benefit.

Don't want another 3 initial player TBH

[AjaxAndy]

Given we don't have a natural 10 other than Alcaraz at this stage I do think with his ability to progress up the pitch with his dribbling we might see a change in formation and tactics.

Him and Gana as dual 8s with Garner sitting deep, Ndaiye and Dibbling if we sign him playing further forward in a 4-3-3. Everyone fucking sprint upfield as our dribblers bomb forward skinning opposition left right and centre.

Could end up a far cry from humping it long and hoping Beto can out muscle 2 defenders or Doucoure press the lost ball to win it back high up.

I think we get the most out of him if he plays on the left side of a midfield three.

Appears to have done his best work in that left channel linking up with the winger and fullback, arriving late in the box, and sometimes supplying the striker directly.

Has he been in full pre season training with Chelsea ? If so and he signs tomorrow, two days training with the squad then we might get to see him on Saturday ?

I’d presume so. He made 5 appearances for them at the club world cup, scoring once. Think Moyes will get him in the team straight away

Yeah they wouldn't let an essential cog of their European and Club World Cup campaigns (both important and real) rot, got to keep that kind of engine purring surely.

[The Doc]

He'll instantly improve us in a position where we're most lacking, and is in his prime years. Money well spend in my opinion. Got all the attributes to be a fan favourite for us.

11 starts in the 13 games they played in Europe

I’m not overly keen on him, but stop making shit up

I'm not making anything up! He was a vital cog in those very real and important competitions that Chelsea did not just use as a dumping ground for the bomb squad.

[Shogun]

Not sure why you're going off the deep end with this one, Brapster

Not sure anyone thinks he's prime Iniesta. He was great in the championship (at least, as far as the stats show), I don't think he'll be poor in the Premier League every week even if he's nothing special. Even his last Premier League season was decent stats wise. Hopefully he'll change your opinion when he gets on the pitch for us, KDH-Gana-Garner would be an okay midfield imo.
