Coppello Posted June 14, 2019 Report Share Posted June 14, 2019 Well today is the day. Midst all of the excitement, I've had a Staropramen with my coco pops this morning and I've been driving around London with my Czech car flag attached to the window. I've been paying for everything by cheque and have had Check Yourself by Ice Cube on loop all day. How are we looking @STeveOELlis? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bcfc01 Posted June 15, 2019 Report Share Posted June 15, 2019 Anyone think that this deal may be scuppered with Sarri leaving Chelsea ? And the Dasilva deal as well ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regardless of who their manager is their transfer ban may well have an impact on players leaving. It has gone to CAS but surprisingly they have not asked for the ban to be suspended whilst their appeal is held - apparently this can be done.

I would however say that if FL gets the job he would want to assess ALL of the squad and has an eye for youth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fair point and if that happens, I would say that he's more likely to keep young ones like Dasilva and the centre half who he had on loan at Derby than a 25/26 year old Kalas.

Pretty sure the Chelsea mob weren’t particularly impressed with their LB’s last season too, especially Alonso who seems to have gone massively downhill.

He appears to be with a pound shop David Luiz, and photobombing some couples honeymoon memories. (I don't think that's a sign by the way, was just saying. Pretty sure we will need to get this thread to 50 pages before the club will sanction a signing). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ska Junkie Posted June 15, 2019 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2019 Strangely, out of the 3, Palmer is the one that I find the most exciting. We know Kalas is the dogs gonads alongside Webenbauer and we know how good JDS is alongside them but Kasey has one hell of a lot of talent, probably a better footballer, but hasn't found how to u thtiliseat talent to its' full effect yet. Under LJ, he might just turn out to be the best of all 3. My only concern is that we are. supposedly after Smodicz (sp) and Turnbull who play in the same role suggesting we aren't after Kasey.

You could be right, or it might be that LJ is after a couple of players for key positions given the reputation we have for getting tired after Christmas. We dont seem to have the squad depth (and possibly quality in LJs eyes) in key roles and end up playing people out of position sometimes. Who knows though.

Fontaineofallknowledge Posted June 15, 2019 Report Share Posted June 15, 2019 Agree Palmer does have something about him and can really make things happen by taking players on and incisive, positive passing. However he didn’t learn the defensive discipline so was only brought on when we were chasing a game, would be an expensive bench player.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lez Posted June 15, 2019 Report Share Posted June 15, 2019 Without being overly negative I dont think any of them will be with us come September. As for Kalas I can see him going to a champions league club in Europe.....ala Magnússon. I dont get the impression Palmer sees his future with us after being bit part...mand surely the pull of Lampard, who lives DaSilva may turn the players head.

I think the 3 subs on a match day are also crucial and at times LJ has not had the attacking options at his disposal to really impact a game the way he wants. There were to be fair a few games last season where he made some great calls and we managed to scrape a win or change things tactically but I just reckon he wants a bit more power and attacking intent to close games out rather than hang on to a single goal lead Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am pretty sure Kalas’ time at Chelsea is done but they lack left backs and can easily see JDS feeling he had a chance to make an impact. I am optimistic we have a decent chance of signing all three but he is the one I am least confident on... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I think he has signed, either permanently or on loan for another season, and we`re waiting (at his request possibly) to announce it after his international tournament is over. The wish may well be father to the thought though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
