Yeah make that happen yesterday. Sensational player in the making. Genuine question that I don’t know the answer to, sorry if it’s a stupid one. Why are they after getting rid of him if he’s as good as everyone says? I honestly don’t know. KDB, Salah are both world class and we’re released by Chelsea early on. It happens.

Every time he played in the Euros they mentioned his last loan and the speculation around his next one, but never said why.

if were lookin at replacing Bruno next year, Dani Olmo would be my first choice, not Xavi Simmons. although he would be a great loan option if selling McTomminay
the club has to make the deal for Ugarte and Yoro now! if they dont, i can see them overpaying for branthwaite but then signing Amrabat too.

He has done well out on loan moves and basically has told them that he isn’t coming back to a club or coach that don’t believe in him 100%. Loan me or sell me because I know my worth and wanna play football.

We do need to have someone that can reach Bruno's caliber in the waiting that can give him some rest. McT isn't that guy and Olmo could be that guy and he is only going to get more expensive

So we're still talking about replacing Bruno is it.
Ok.

I still think Sancho will be moved on. He’s back in the fold training because he needs to maintain/build his fitness, as do all professional players. He’s far more likely to be taken on if match-ready, not having sat on his arse in the wilderness somewhere instead. I’d imagine there’s a lot of negotiations going on behind the scenes.

I tend to agree… There was talk of a swap deal for Chiesa but swap deals are very rare…

I cannot imagine Simons joining us to sit on the bench. Surely that is the whole reason he is angling for a move away from PSG?
He's versatile so maybe the intention is to play him on the left. But then we'd be paying both Rashford and Sancho £350k each to sit on the bench.
And what is the plan with Mount and Scotty? They'd be even further behind in the pecking order if we sign Olmo or Simons and retain Bruno.
And where is the money coming from when we still need to sign a CB, CDM and LB all of which are likely to cost £30-£50m apiece?

I think we will still shift one of Sancho or rashford tbh, psg don't seem to be spending the mbappe money so hopefully rashford will be their big money signing, Scotty needs to be sold as he isn't close to the quality needed. I think we will still get those positions covered which we need most, but the likes of say Simmons/Toney/olmo would probably be towards the end of the window depending on sales, I don't care how we fit all these players in i just want to see a squad packed with quality and not shite on the bench.

The Olmo links aren’t particularly strong, so it wouldn’t be him and Simons.
