Deuce

At some point it seems like a no brainer to go back and get Armstrong and Woodman as squad fillers. Dunno if either is ready to ride the bench though.

Very possible he’s confusing him with Schar

Is Gallagher for sure off this summer? He seems pretty consequential to Chelsea’s setup. Although I suppose that’s moot if Poch gets binned.

A chance to win any trophy is a good thing. I won’t poo-poo European competition regardless of the caliber of the tournament…one of the few bright spots of the Ashley/Pards era was that EL run. It would be a great opportunity to get the younger players match time and tournament experience as well.

And flips the CBs as well

Great player, tricky little fekir.

*Disco klaxon*

I like the flexibility Kelly brings. I dunno if he’s a guy we want as first-choice over the long run, but he’s a PL-quality CB who can also plug in at LB. At LB, he lets us go to a back 3 in attack, as Howe seems to like. Botman New CB Kelly Tosin That’s very good depth over the next few years.

Kelly - Botman - Tosin - Livra back three in attack to let Livra get forward (after Trips moves on).

Nico is top of my wish list.
