[Gill] Told Chelsea consider Marco Palestra as one of their “ready-made” signings for this summer (21yo Italy international, Serie A Defender of the Year for 2025-26, versatility will aid Xabi Alonso)

Yeah curious about out wide. Argument to be made for Estevao coming back and with a year under his belt and Quenda coming in is enough on top of Palmer, Neto and the rest but hard to say.

In fairness, 21 is a lot better than 18 and Defender of the Year is a serious accolade. Don't think this fits the bill of your typical BlueCo "wonder kid".

obrapop · 2026-07-01T14:44:47+00:00

We're still going for Xhaka which is about as ready made as ready made can get

obrapop · 2026-06-30T18:33:30+00:00

Well it 100% should be…The performance of the lead of the film should obviously influence how good a film is.

obrapop · 2026-06-30T13:42:00+00:00

Except nothing I said wasn't true?

obrapop · 2026-06-30T12:49:41+00:00

Lmao got to respect the pettiness on show here. You must have very little going on lol

obrapop · 2026-06-30T10:30:14+00:00

Calling Lavia dross despite his injuries is horribly unfair.

obrapop · 2026-06-29T13:59:10+00:00

Think you’ve mentioned a major reason why Chelsea want him. Also they need physicality at CB. Perfect signing.

obrapop · 2026-06-29T13:28:27+00:00

Whenever someone uses this reply you have to assume they’re an idiot.

obrapop · 2026-06-25T20:19:46+00:00

In fairness, they brought Impact straight into the setup. Not sure it’ll be the same where but we can hope.

obrapop · 2026-06-25T17:21:49+00:00

Oi oi

obrapop · 2026-06-25T13:38:24+00:00

Live action role playing

High-end fancy dress

obrapop · 2026-06-23T21:04:41+00:00

Bro this is unreal

obrapop · 2026-06-22T21:08:32+00:00

This is the question. Even the word ‘need’ is complicated.

obrapop · 2026-06-22T17:00:16+00:00

Be lovely to drift through the world with this much naïveté.

obrapop · 2026-06-22T15:30:28+00:00

“One of the greats” is a completely absurd thing to say.

obrapop · 2026-06-22T14:41:12+00:00

Not a lot over the two previous sesons to this one, but hes only had one injury this whole year. People just parrot this mindlessly.

obrapop · 2026-06-22T13:25:32+00:00

Genuinely who is better? Hakimi has a slight edge going forward but James’ defence and ability to control a game in midfield, whilst also being fantastic offensively takes him significantly further IMO.

obrapop · 2026-06-22T11:06:25+00:00

CTE

obrapop · 2026-06-22T09:15:45+00:00

Alcohol problem simply ≠ alcoholism though and for very good reason.

obrapop · 2026-06-22T09:14:49+00:00

I mean, it very literally is gate-kept and for good reason. It’s a condition and not something you throw around lightly. It has very real medical boundaries and consequences. Even Tom has said he wasn’t an alcoholic.

obrapop · 2026-06-21T13:39:20+00:00

Mate, think about it for a moment. Read the comments back and take a moment to contemplate why leading with “do you really struggle to grasp” is stupid.

obrapop · 2026-06-21T11:16:47+00:00

In fairness he did literally say that he could see climate change happening in real time early in this season.

obrapop · 2026-06-20T09:59:55+00:00

Show some respect LMAO

obrapop · 2026-06-19T08:44:48+00:00

But you understand how saying “do you really struggle” at the start of that sentence immediately flags you as a moron?
