EPL 2024/2025

Thinking of Bournemouth, I think we will be ok with the raids in the coming summer. Kerkez out any day, but we have also come to terms with Truffert as a replacement from League 1.
I cant see Zabarnyi leave unless PSG come up with ridiculous money, which isnt out of the question but unlikely.
Kepa signing with Arsenal means a new keeper, Paulson will be in Europe this year I believe, but doubt he is back up keeper yet. Starting Travers maybe but believe we will be on the hunt for a new keeper, wont be Neto.
Semenyo also targeted but number will be high but think he might go.
Andoni I doubt leaves for Spurs but you never know, thats the one I am most worried about.Feel for Wolves, Ait Nouri about to be at City, Cunha strong rumours at United, they will be hard to replace. Potentially good for teams coming up.

Gennarro Gattuso is the new Coach of Italy. The former AC Milan man speaks English with a Glaswegian accent after time playing for Rangers. He's a fiery character too so post-match interviews should be interesting.
Has Gattuso actually lasted more than 1 year at any coaching gig that he's taken lol.....
-
@African-Monkey I think he did a couple of seasons at both AC Milan and Napoli. Lots of gigs as coach and only one Coppa Italia in terms of silverware.

I remember he left Fiorentina before ever taking them for a game
I feel like this appointment will either go really well or be an absolute disaster.

Wolves looked fine when Cunha was suspended. And now they have a huge war chest to strengthen with 7 Portuguese wonderkids.

That is the lot of the mid table club. If they buy well they will be fine

For aussie viewers Stan has EPL from August... nice

Transfer news has gone quiet now that brief window for the Club World Cup has closed - other than the confirmation of well signaled signings (Wirtz & Kerkez to Liverpool). Bournemouth are sitting on a mound of cash now with the Kerkez & Huijsen money but I haven't heard any rumours of who they are after.
-
The 3 Bs, Bournemouth, Brighton and Brentford look like raking it in from player sales this summer.

we bought Truffert as a kerkez replacement, linked with a few others, especially a few wingers, but nothing signed
likely will stick with the model of buying fit upcoming youngsters than any big names

Who is likely to be sold by Brighton? Joao Pedro is the only name I have heard so far and I think they may be asking too much for him.

Think Joao Pedro is a done deal?

Oh yeah Chelsea of course for over 50m - 7 year deal plus Chelsea are close to getting Jamie Gittens from Dortmund for 55m which seems a hell of a lot for someone with so little top level football but he is very young and has been playing for Dortmund since he was a kid.

They always find ways to exploit loopholes in the rules, so I'm sure they'll find a way to pay for him off a different set of books.

We keep one at least Semenyo extends until 2030, good win for us, now just need another defender, goal keeper and winger

Diogo Jota
RIP.
-
It's very sad, Diogo Jota sounds like a thoroughly decent man by all accounts and it's a tragedy for his family and of course his parents to lose both sons at once.
Interesting to hear that nobody at Wolves had a bad thing to say about him which can't be said for every ex-player.

just watched the world club cup final
glad i'm not a manu mancity liverpool arsenal fan, those chelsea fans are guna be so irritating for the next 4 years running round with that world champ badge on their jerseys
I think what you meant to say was well done for smashing the 2025 juggernaut of PSG ...
Am obviously very happy, but hard to tell where this ranks on the list of achievements. Behind the League & Champs League for sure.
Chelsea squad have certainly earned their break this year.. First pre season is 8th August, so I imagine they'll only get two weeks, at most, off.
