For me the Chelsea target is Hudson-Odoi

He’s still crap
I think you’re wrong on this one
I’ve been a longtime admirer of him and think his style of play is what we need
He’s a strong athletic lad who can also play
What’s more, I think he’s hungry
Whenever I saw him play last season he looked good. How much he played honestly doesn’t bother me. It could have all been down to a personality clash with the coach
Palace fans raved about him when he was there
To be fair mikey, you were telling everyone that Sadio Berahino was going to be a world star
I never said that
I thought he could maybe sort his life out and actually be a useful player for a club again, but I never said he’d be a worldie
If he was that good . And that hungry why did he not complete 90 minutes for Fulham in any of their last 10 games last season.
He's another barkley. A bit of ability but not goin to come to a side and push them up the table.
Interesting that this convo sprang up from talking about gambling on Championship talent and yet the examples you cite were all from abroad.
I like what you’re suggesting but my opinion is that after multiple transfer failures and a managerial clusterfluff this summer we are going to play it ultra safe, and by that I mean signing established players who (we hope) walk into the first team. I imagine if we can achieve a solid, dependable first 15/16 then we’ll switch focus to bringing in/through younger players to gradually bed into the team. Kind of like a less extreme version of what Palace are currently suffering through.
I agree with you mate. I keep seeing this question about why we don’t gamble on younger talent and I think you’ve answered it yourself - The Benitez appointment reeks of an attempt at “stability”. Build a solid, dependable team to work and bore our way to a higher than 10th finish, and then build on or behind that with a stream of younger talent ready to take us to the next level.
Or I could be giving us too much credit for planning and they’re all running around with their hair on fire, without a clue what they’re doing. We’ll know in a few weeks either way!
Why do you have to play the full 90 for it to count as a game played?
How many times did James actually play for us last season under that criteria?
Again, you’re focusing on one isolated spell of his career
At Palace he played well and earned himself another crack at Chelsea before injuries scuttled it
Why does fulham override palace?
When he played he looked good. How long he spent on the pitch doesn’t really bother me. It’s the first bit that matters

Player Valuation: £10m
He signed Rondon on loan. He scored 11 goals. Not a bad return.
And Iwobi just has to be good at footy.
So you want to sign a player in part due to his athleticism but you’re not bothered that he can’t play full games? And the spell at Palace that you’re citing as proof he’d be good enough you are saying was cut short by injury?
Do you get why this pitch might not be a winner?
If you are playin 20 minutes and less and games then there is a reason for that surely.
Why didn't he go back to Palace if he was that good for them.
Focusing on one spell in his career. He's 25 and his best spell was according to you at Palace where he played 25 times
I'd like to see a lot more then that personally anyway then just over 100 appearance at 25
Loftus-Cheek - CRAP
Zouma - CRAP
Stop looking at Chelsea castoffs ffs

Cracking player but didn’t they give him a stupid wage to keep him out of Bayern’s clutches?
