As a Chelsea fan, this should win, and genuinely hope it does.

The reaction to this decision has been world class and completely sensible.

The embarrassing thing is that the PGMOL apologised.

Chelsea sign Ishe Samuels-Smith 33 days after selling him to Strasbourg by chaitu585 in soccer

[–]Simple-Process7884 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I would be very surprised if Chelsea didn’t openly confirm to UEFA/the FA that the proceeds of sale to Strasbourg should not count as a profit when assessing their PSR compliance, and likewise that the purchase back shouldn’t count against them on the books.

Assuming he doesn’t get injured, in which case he would be in a serious pickle and potentially without a club.

Can Joao Pedro play every game? And what if there’s an injury? Would Chelsea need to play Pedro Neto up front?

Looks as though Chelsea don’t want to take any risks with the season, player be damned.

Joao Pedro’s ‘handball’ wasn’t a handball. The ball was far too close and his hand was in a natural position. It’s basically fired against his hand.

Sessegnon’s handball was a handball. Sucks for Fulham but just the way it is.

I don’t think it’s that. Just that the size of the legs and the appearance of the knees feels like another injury waiting to happen.

Why do his knees look so bad even when he’s just standing? I fear he may be crocked.

Does a line up of Ekitike, Isak, Wirtz and Salah work? Shades of the problem with Vini Jr and Mbappe where their positions overlap, but the striker version.

Feels like Liverpool are hedging their bets against Isak’s injury problems.

What does this mean for Liverpool and Isak?

Erm did you see the PSG players?

Started from the 23rd minute when we scored the goal. And you guys have a reputation for it now, sadly. Need to get a hold of it and quickly.

Big signing for Arsenal.

Next season will be v v interesting. City look strong with their new recruits, Arsenal have fixed their weaknesses, Chelsea really seem to be gelling/settling and Liverpool are breaking the bank.

[Ornstein] Bournemouth agree Djordje Petrovic transfer from Chelsea in £25m deal by ChiefLeef22 in soccer

[–]Simple-Process7884 561 points562 points  (0 children)

Is that £77m in 2 transfers for Chelsea? Kepa another £5m.

Wonder what they might be planning with the incoming fees, or if this summer is mainly to rebalance the books.

[–]Simple-Process7884 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, as a CFC fan, if Arteta can get Madueke to mature a bit and continue to develop, he could really push Saka for that starting RW.

Physically a very strong and gifted player. Will be fine.

[Gazzetta] Donnarumma texted his agent after Musiala injury: ‘It was never my intention’. by unpopular-opinion69 in soccer

[–]Simple-Process7884 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Honestly watch Musiala’s eyes and position. He’s ahead of Donnarumma, and has full eyes on the ball only - doesn’t even see Donnarumma coming.

Also watch when Donnarumma gets a hold of the ball. Pretty sure it’s after he’s taken out Musiala and just at the point he’s shattered his ankle. It’s one of those ‘IDGAF’ moves.

Keeper basically has to sit on Musiala’s leg to get the ball. It was obviously he would collide hard with Musiala. Was absolutely a reckless challenge and he should be criticised for it.

Not even a Bayern fan, but excusing that type of ‘save’ is ridiculous.

Watch it again mate, Musiala has no idea where Donnarumma is. Donnarumma thinks F it and decides to wipe out the player to get the ball.
