    Ross Barkley

    He's an excellent player, and £40m is probably in the ball park, but I wonder how he fits into the system when you have Kane and Alli in the attacking roles. Don't get me wrong, he could be brilliant in central midfield rotating with Alli, but I wonder if either one of them is prepared to do...

    Liverpool Vs Tottenham: Match Thread

    Total lack of respect shown to their wide players with how we played the ball out of defence. Absolute disgrace, further compounded by a poorly-picked bench. Drop Wimmer, get another winger in the mix until Lamela is fit. Oduwa and Onomah must have something to offer between the two of them...

    Andrea Ranocchia

    If we didn't want Fazio, we don't want him

    Isco

    Cost and his aspirations versus ours aside, where would we play him: in the midfield two, or in the advanced three? If the latter, would we have enough zip about our attacking lines with him, Alli, Eriksen and Kane? He's world class, and his distribution would be very welcome, I'm just...

    Mark Uth

    Only have the clips here, but: long stride belies his top speed, good balance, good finishing, but limited agility and he is quite wiry for his height. His reactions look good, but the question is do we have a position for him in the PL where either he can comfortably play off the shoulder...

    Jacob Murphy

    Don't see how he improves the squad long term as he looks like just another small, direct player who can't break the lines or necessarily dribble past PL defenders. Certainly looked like he was going to fall over a few times rounding League 1 keepers. We need to get players who have more to...

    Chelsea looking at an attacking midfielder you say... what a surprise

    Breel Embolo Moves To Schalke

    Disappointing, he was my favourite forward target for us this summer, but I'm not across the up and coming players these days. Schalke is a good fit for him, though I don't understand why we couldn't have offered him a starting spot on the wing. Well it would have been £19m before the...

    Breel Embolo Moves To Schalke

    Would be just shy of that after conversion anyway, probably got rounded up for the sake of a headline

    Man City Vs Tottenham: Match Thread

    Arm was out, but tucked at the elbow, in an instinctive movement to maintain balance and prepare for a potential fall while still trying to keep it close to the body. Ball then hit his side, rebounding onto his arm. I believe that it should not be a penalty, but I can understand a lack of...

    Team v Fiorentina (EL Round of 32) - 1st & 2nd legs

    My take: Hell, drop CCV in and rest Toby; might want to rest Lloris after he copped a solid knock to the head in the final minute today.

    Top four finish?

    The arrogance of possession-heavy teams is what has allowed Leicester to do this. One-touch football is back with a bang. We've given up points too easily to really deserve the title, but if it's going to be about who's left standing, the next month will sort everything out IMO.
