Imagine Deki finding out he's going to have to rotate with Chiesa again

 

[van_Pommel]

Would you swap him for richy if that was an option

um, yes. I like Richy though for the record and have faith in him doing well in Ange's system.

Was this a hint that a swap deal might be on the cards?

Yes I think he would be a better fit for what we need at the moment.

 

[Axl Rose]

Just do what it takes for Vlahovic then what will be will be.

The ideal move would be swapping Dusan for Richy then buy Orban and Chiesa.

 

[Ginola+Tonic]

Sounds like the focus on departures could be the bit where get unstuck. Especially if any incomings are dependent on that. As we have demonstrated time and again that we struggle relinquishing deadwood. Very disappointed to hear that’s the strategy, but also understand it’s the reality of having a massively bloated squad. Given that, I have a very hard time seeing being able to bring in two players, let alone three by the end of the window.

Fingers crossed for a miracle.

I couldn’t disagree more
We’re quite clearly bringing in at least a striker and another centre back.

Dreamland stuff. Not holding my breath

 

[Ginola+Tonic]

I’d be very surprised if we got either Vlahovic or Chiesa to be honest.

In the fastest heartbeat in the history of the world

 

[Trix]

I've been posting bts regarding Vlahovic. Definite interest, and Ange is keen.

Chiesa is far less likely as things stand.

 

[RJR1949]

I’d drive Richy to the airport.

Hell I’d drive him to Milan.

 

[Huddlebone]

A swap deal Richy for Vlahovic would be great for both parties. Vlahovic is on 250k/w at Juve and Richy has 90-something? That would free up money for Juve.

I think Richy will have much better games than today where he was marked out of it by a very big Brentford defence.
Vlahovic would have been more suitable today. It was clear we had limited striking options off the bench, so i don't think we can sacrifice Richy.

Not surprised, I'd say Juventus would rather sell anybody else in their entire squad than Chiesa.

 

[talkshowhost86]

What's Juve's financial state? Do they just need cash on their books or do they need cash up front?

Us getting the best part of 80m up front for Kane might be quite the leverage, otherwise I don't see us affording both of them (and barely one of them).

Juve: Our financial state is fine. No tanks are rolling through Turin.

 

[dvdhopeful]

We need someone, we can't waste a season of Maddison without a clinic striker to finish the chances.

 

[olliec]

I’d cream if we get Chiesa. What a signing that would be. He’s my fav non spurs player.

 

[Ghost Hardware]

Dreamland stuff. Not holding my breath

Completely agree, but I guess it’s positive if we are even thinking about it.

 

[Flobadob]

Very good point. He really looks like he’s going to be consistently serving chances up on a silver platter doesn’t he

 

[sam1972]

Would Vlhaovic want to join? We're not in Europe.
