With the squad as it is, I think someone has to be cut from the 25-man squad already, so any signing we make means another one has to be cut. To be honest i personally think we will go into the season as is. Maybe a loan but i cant see us doing a lot more. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once the contract is signed by both party's, it surely can not be amended without both party's agreement. Yes but many players contracts include appearance bonuses so if benched that cuts down their overall earnings Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starting to think that too. We seemed to have got our business done early and there are very little credible ITK rumours about us now. Would much prefer we got a CB at RW to complete the jigsaw and cover all bases, but when does any team have a perfect window and get everything they want or need. If we are looking at a 4-3-3, with 3 CMs and full backs providing the width, then not going after a RW makes a little more sense I guess. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he would be a great fit, prefect RM for us. Great delivery from set pieces which has been a issue for us as well. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ziyech didn’t have the best 1st season with Chelsea, but good enough, and I think an extra season of PL experience he will be even better. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Couldn't agree with this more; he now has a good manager and has settled in and will have a proper pre season as well. I really rate him. I'd love either him or Berardi; both are exceptional players. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
An Sionnach Posted 22 July 2021 Share Posted 22 July 2021 Ziyech is near clone of Mahrez , but a step down . He soon found out though that PL was a big step up from Dutch football. Very skilful of course but lightweight and non existent defensively. Major problem is Chelsea would want their 40 million back and he would want about 6 million a year.

I think had Mahrez moved straight to the Prem he would have faced the same issues you are alluding to with Ziyech. Luckily for us he had a couple of seasons in the Championship where he could adapt, get stronger and learn the defensive side of the game (although I never thought he really mastered that art).

Actually, only half a season in the championship, so he adapted fairly quickly to the Prem (not so much in the Great Escape season, but most of our players struggled with the transition that season). 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UHDrive Posted 22 July 2021 Share Posted 22 July 2021 It's Berardi must be. So far signed a 23 and 22 yr old players and experienced LB granted. But BR wanted more leadership + experience in the team 'for the young guys'. I'm going on sky bet.. can't imagine its that Doni he's 19. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
