At every club. Sorry Droy..of course you are right Jimmy not Danny..Freudian slip perhaps?..then again Murphy's law kicking in? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Droy was my hero Report post Posted January 6, 2019 never heard of a third of them. Most of the others famous only for never acvhieving what they promised - like Macheda. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-6260811/From-Ryan-Giggs-Marcus-Rashford-player-won-Jimmy-Murphy-Award.html Timely article. Even Rashford is a bit of a cheat, he was about the 12th teenager tried out in the year. No one thought he was special in the Academy till he was tried out in the first team.

Sounds like this one wasn't on him, but still pleasurable to hear none the less. Wonder what his fans in Spain are thinking of his signing. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think Kepa is playing more or less on the same level as TC did ( in Chelsea shirt) for us. If not better, he is also younger and suits possession football more.

H We did have to pay 70 odd million for him though, not exactly a non issue when you think where else that could have been spent. But I agree in terms of performance not much difference at the moment, hopefully Kepa can get even better too whereas TC has peaked, possibly even declining.

ripz Report post Posted January 6, 2019 (edited) https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/football/8132614/chelsea-zappacosta-lazio-loan-bid-accepted/ Zappa loan to Lazio with £13.5m option in the summer? Sounds like nonsense figures again, I'd be amazed if true, don't see where we'd buy better for that money. Zappa has been a bit hard done by, more so considering how terrible Azpi is in attack. I'd rather see him finish the season then see what happens. Edited January 6, 2019 by ripz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
