Transfer Rumour Fikayo Tomori

[ProZ]

Fabrizio said it's on, what more is needed?

 

[Jozzy]

....I have no idea why posters want to see our best young players go on loan.

If I believed they were getting plenty of minutes I certainly wouldn’t ever want any young talent going out on loan.

However if we signed another CB, I don’t think either Branthwaite or Gibson would be making more than five to ten appearances. I feel they’d be better playing 40 games in the championship rather than five appearances here.

I’m not questioning their talents but there’s a reason why we don’t see many teenager CB’s playing in the Premier League.

We need someone like him with Holgate out for a stretch

 

[Pienaar'sdisciple]

Surely he can't be happy sitting on the bench or the stands twiddling his fingers for a season. Get him in hopefully permanently.

 

[Nymzee]

Be interesting to see if he’s in the squad tonight.

Silva is out for Chelsea, not sure how long, but Tomori May be kept a few weeks for cover.

Loan .....With an option to buy only!!!

 

[mccole]

With Holgate out for 8-12 weeks, he is a must now.

I think he'll be on the bench for Chelsea's game and he'll be one of 3 we will hopefully try to be brought in this week.

 

[Toffeelover]

All gone deadly quiet.

Kevin Phillips told Football Insider:

“I think he would be a smart loan signing.
“He did very well when he was at Derby for that season and he has got Premier League experience under his belt now.
"I always think young players should go out, play regularly and continue to develop.
"He started well for Chelsea last season but his form dipped a little bit but that is natural.
“He has been playing with better players at Chelsea as well so that will have improved him. I think that could be a really smart signing by Carlo Ancelotti.”

Think will be interesting to see if Chelsea drop early points whether they would be willing to loan a player to us (improve us).

...it’s early days but a good point given our win at Spurs.

 

[Toffe3m4n]

If this isn't happening because Chelsea are being reluctant then we need to move on quickly. Holgate is gonna be out until Christmas by the sounds of it.

Chelsea would be mad to loan us Tomori after watching that performance yesterday. Last thing they need to do is help us strengthen. Time to move on to our next target I think.

...on the other hand, they might see it as beneficial for us to take points off the teams they’ll be challenging at the top.
