Raphinha

[AberGooner]

Hope we can still get this done but if he does end up going to Chelsea we should sneak in and get Richarlison.

Hudson is more likely to play there. Or he would be back to back 4. But what I would definitely do is to offload Pulisic, Ziyeck and Werner. They doesn't put enough good numbers for them.

Even Hudson odoi shouldn't be wingback. It look Ziyech will be surly off Werner might be difficult

How come when Chelsea are interested in a player people believe, but reported Arsenal interest in the same player is just Deco trying to get Barcelona to hurry up?

So why are Chelsea interested in Dembele?

They definitely want new wingers. So important for Tuchel system they are super influential every game. So getting off a lot of their current offensive players is an option. None of them is some you would trust to score and assist consistently every match. Pulisic and Ziyech mainly.

I am in tears. As that great man once said "F**K Chelsea"

Also don't buy Ornsteins nonsense about him playing Wingback. They have James and Chilwell for that. What they lack, is quality wingers, like Raphinha.

This is what happens when you bid well below what the selling club want. We essentially invited others into this.

hilarious how nobody saw this coming
this is a dickhead football club

Buy gakpo if this falls thru.

Although a very good player I'd rather we sign a cm for amount it take to buy Raphina.

We have a starting attacking 4 of Jesus, Saka, Martinelli and Ødegaard backed up by ESR, Vieira, Eddie and Pepe - that's a lot of quality already.

So why are Chelsea interested in Dembele?

To play him at wing back? You tell me. They play 3-4-2-1. Jorginho/Kovacic/Kante are the two CMs, Mount and one other play behind the striker and they use James and Alonso (before he left) as the wing backs. Sterling won’t move their to sit on the bench and Mount is their best attacker, so where do they fit in someone like Raphinha or Dembele? It’s either depth or as a wing back.

Matt law usually good for chelsea news i thought. That ***** is saying they considering move lol. Damn really want this guy added to mix.

The guy has the physical and speed to play it. You don't need to play winger to be an offensive treat. A lot of teams have played offensive FB giving a completely new dimension to their attack. It allows you to overwhelm defenders.

So they’re going to bench Mount or Sterling? Not likely.

Lmao, Dembele and Raphinha bench Mount, no problem.

He is, but tier 1 sources in Barcelona were saying Arsenal want him as well and people said it was all a show for Deco.

So they’re going to bench Mount or Sterling? Not likely.

Of course Mount gets benched. He only plays well vs the likes of Norwich. Tuchel is a winner, he doesn't care about the fact Mount is English and has a good look.

 

[ArsenesCoatMaker]

Didn't rule out these articles after Chelsea likely losing out Richarlison and Dembele i still think they'll sign striker instead of winger.

They want De Ligt or Kunde and Ake and Sterling from City. Sterling is looking like a done deal. I don't think they can do those 4 and pay £60m for Raphinha too. I think they wanted Dembele because he was a free transfer.

Until Chelsea really make bid there nothing about this story. So i prefer waiting it's a player choice also we can't expect everyone chose us but after seeing orny saying player to move here i hope he don't change his mind

Tielmans and Fabian Ruiz on his final year. Both could be a super upgrade over Xhaka. Is really annoying how they are planning to go another year without revamping the midfield. Viera can't play there consistently in his first year, too lightweight. It's like expecting Lokonga would.
