Surely even Boehly will not be stupid enough to start buying players without knowing if his new manager (whoever that might be) will want them? So I'm calling bullsht on the idea of a transfer to Chelsea at the moment. There is a link with Roberts, so if he stays it may have legs later.
Sanchez has offended NSC. He's now officially rubbish and not fit to wear the shirt (or in his case, the jersey). That's how it goes ................................
Unless you are calling the OP a liar, I think we should be prepared to accept that he could see Big Bob through his window as he typed, don't you?
....and I'll end my post with 'fact', just to give it that extra bit of authrity, eh? Always works .................... :facepalm:
Don't know how 'friendly' the agreement between RdZ and Sanchez not to travel and be on the bench is - but it does look as if Sanchez has rather been chucked under the bus.
My way or the highway - does that look a bit like RdZ's strategy? Well, that's fine - strong management ...
How do you know he didn't? Perhaps he did, and was told he was not part of RDZ's future plans.
No, I don't know either - neither of us know, do we? I do know I'll be sad to see him go, and wouldn't be surprised if someday he comes back to bite us!
Not so long ago that many on here were pin-pointing a need to buy a new back-up/competition GK for Sanchez because they never wanted to see Steele between the posts for us in the PL! I wonder if they're the same ones rubbishing Sanchez now that De Zerbi has opted for Steele as his number 1?
Sanchez made many fantastic saves that gained us/saved us points! I know people are delighted with what De Zerbi's doing and that Steele is an upgrade at the passing game, but I don't know why so many people have this urge to re-write history and down-play everything Sanchez did. The buzz when...
I'm not sure many agree with you about Steele being the better shot-stopper! With his feet, yes, certainly most people seem to be with De Zerbi on that.
Sanchez didn't need a season in the Championship. Not sure if McGill's had a meaningful loan at all, so it might be good for him if we are keeping him.
Not sure about Scherpen. Beadle is still very young (even by De Zerbi's standards!)
