Let me remind you that Potter assembled those recruitment teams; there is no way they would go for a player not on his A or B list, and BTW, I don't think there was any media hype for the Fofana, Badiashile, and Madueke deals; they were all secret scouts deals; the only deals we could argue received media attention were the Mudryk and J. Felix deals, and that was because some of the top clubs were interested in them. Chelsea was the only club to make direct contact with Benfica, and the deal received so much attention due to the price tag and the manner in which it was concluded between the clubs. Nothing has been done behind Potter's back, in my opinion.

You sound very much to have an insider feeding you with these information that are rather limited to the public, huh. Fofana was also a deal borne out of extreme desperation as well, hence the reason why Leicester were able to capatilse on Chelsea's desperation.
I wasn't referring to Wesley Fofana. I was talking about David Fofana, our new striker; I'm sure you didn't know that, but the D. Fofana, Santos, Badiashile, and Madueke deals were pure underground masterclass from our scouting department; nobody saw it coming. One amusing aspect of the current transfer is that every player has a release clause, which must be paid unless the club decides to reduce it. Gavi, Pedric, and Vini Jr all have €1b release clauses, which is the Laliga team's way of telling you to Fuck off. He's not for sale.

I'm not saying that those deals were done without Potter's consent of course, but that doesn't mean those were his solely his choices of players, I really don't know what coach is already scouting for players for a club that he doesn't even have any idea he was going to manage, that said I don't think a club trying to build for future players go for them in the more tensed January and more so in the final days and dying moments of the deadline, that could only suggest nothing but extreme desperation, and need for immediate result.
The only reason the deal progressed to deadline was because of Rui Costa. After our initial offer was turned down, the club moved on to other targets, with the intention of returning in the summer. However, the Twitter space we had with Todd Boehly and the new FFP (5-year maximum contract) rules changed everything, necessitating the signing of all of our top targets to 8-year contracts (with salary reductions for failure to qualify for the Champions League). The new years starts next summer to stop Todd Boehly madness Grin

But Arsenal got Trossard one of their best players this season without having to try too hard.

Yes, his contract was only about to expire in 5 months and he had no intention of renewing it. However, the Arsenal bid was too fantastic to let go for someone at his age and contract length.

With Haaland and Kane proving to be FPL goldmines, owning both could be the key to success in the second half of the season. However, given their high prices, managers will need to find some cost-effective alternatives to make room for them. Nketiah, Weghorst, and Ferguson are all excellent options, with double gameweeks and strong recent form that make them valuable additions to any roster. Furthermore, Ferguson's low cost allows managers to switch to a 3-5-2 formation, which could give them an advantage over competitors.

I really don't fancy owning Kane to be honest and wouldn't opted for him if not for the game week, I felt his value would be better spent to upgrade my midfielders a bit while also getting similar points as Kane often provide from cheaper forwards like Mitrovic and Toney, while also making your team more flexible when needing to transfer in two or more players e.g one midfielder and a forward, or defender.
What are your thoughts on this? Because I already have Mitovic, I'm considering Kane to Nketieh until at least Jesus recovers from his injury. Nketieh will always be in command of that position. Tottenham are struggling at the moment. For the DGW , Almiron to Bruno looks perfect.

-4 to bring in Kepa
Don't make your transfers yet, unless you will get priced out by waiting. There is still a lot of time before next deadline and there could be more injuries or surprises. For instance it isn't 100% certain that United has double game week. If they play draw today, there isn't double GW. Probably will not happen but you never know. Leeds did their part of the job earlier today.
You are correct.

Almiron to Bruno is good transfer if you can pay for it. I would rather get rid of Mitrović then Kane for Nketiah but I guess you don't have money for that. Don't bring Kepa for -4 unless you have really bad first keeper.
I can't afford it unless I get rid of Kane and Almiron, and I'm keeping an eye on Mertinell because this could be his last GW as my player. Ward is my goalkeeper, and he's not playing well right now. For the last five games, Liecester has failed to keep a clean sheet.

Well, on that note I just hope Liverpool don't put out too many of our first team against Brighton tomorrow, just so we can avoid some of the injuries that we've been plagued with.

Why not? If I'm I'm Klopp I wouldn't mind putting in all the available players into the only possible Cup to win this season, I know that there is a lot to play for in the league but wining the FA cup and qualifying for the Europa can be refer to a successful season don't you think so?

It would be the solution to our problems, but to be honest I'm not sure we can afford him. When it gets closer to the summer, Real Madrid, and the likes will put in some massive bids, with even bigger wages. Which, without breaking the wage structure we just can't compete with. Bellingham would absolutely want to be a Liverpool fan, and prioritise that over a better wage, which I don't think is the case.
Am I the only one who thinks this guy is overrated? Is it because he plays in the Bundesliga, where every player shines? He has some potential, but he will need some good players around him to bring out the best in him. Tbh, it's not what Liverpool needs right now.

In reality, Real Madrid does not prioritize English players; they only draw the first sword and never return. They drew first blood for Deli Ali and Kane but never made an official bid for them and never returned. Bili will end up in the English Premier League..

The problem isn't about how much time Potter needs, I've always been an advocate of the fact that these coaches needs time to build a team of their choice, but neither of Chelsea signings so far seemed to have been solely based off on Potter's decision or recommendation to be quite honest, I believe that most of these signings have been literally due to just hype, more of a panic buying and nothing more than a purchase influenced by scouts and a few board members votes or something of such, because I really don't think Potter suggested to the club that none of the host of talents they've got would not fit in to his plans/styles and if it were to be him calling the shot, you would expect a couple of bids for some Brighton player, at least that squad have the most impact on why Potter was regarded very highly and why he got the job to begin with.
Let me remind you that Potter assembled those recruitment teams; there is no way they would go for a player not on his A or B list, and BTW, I don't think there was any media hype for the Fofana, Badiashile, and Madueke deals; they were all secret scouts deals; the only deals we could argue received media attention were the Mudryk and J. Felix deals, and that was because some of the top clubs were interested in them. Chelsea was the only club to make direct contact with Benfica, and the deal received so much attention due to the price tag and the manner in which it was concluded between the clubs. Nothing has been done behind Potter's back, in my opinion.

Brighton is not our academy; they are a serious club that is doing well for itself, so don't expect Potter to get any player he wants from the team simply because he was their formal coach; he wanted Moises, but the club refused to sell. ETH attempted the same thing with Ajax, but we all saw how that turned out.

I agree with darxiami points, players you bought are players for the future and limited immediate impact and I have a feeling Boehly doesn't understand that and will expect results at latest next season. Potter needs time but he will not get time after Chelsea spent this much, now he needs results soon.
This season is already over; our main goal now is to qualify for one of the UEFA competitions and focus on next season. Nkunku, Lukaku, and Gusto will all join the team in June. The only player who could force us back into the market is Felix; if he impresses the coach, the club will almost certainly pay his release clause. Potter has a large squad to manage. Haha

I see you are happy and it could work out, but you guys could have at least bought one proper striker that guarantees 20 goals per season in that budget.

Sort of strange to have 10 wingers in the club without proper target man. If you guys had somebody like Drogba or Torres these days I would be much more convinced about success of the project. Something Lukaku should have been but failed spectacularly.

Yes, I am. This is the second time we are completely overhauling the team; the first time didn't go so well because they were all old and we bought them in a panic, but I'm confident these guys will hit the ground running for the remaining fixtures.

We're both aware of how difficult it is to find a decent striker in January; the striker market is always the most difficult; there are plenty of good midfielders and defenders, but few proven strikers. Let's see if Potter can bring in a decent striker in the summer or if Potter sticks with Lukaku to do us another favor now that we have some decent players on the team. BTW We also got D. Fofana ( striker)

Auba dropped out of the champions league squad. Bad decision if you ask me.

I noticed that the N5, N10, and N20 are back on the road, which is a welcome development if we actually want to consider the positive aspects of the cashless policy. It will take time to resolve the current crisis caused by the ignorance of some Nigerians and the mismanagement of the banks. The simplest solution would be for all large and small vendors to have a POS machine; we don't really need cash on hand. It's not difficult to get your goods, pay with your card, and leave.

The new cashless policy will benefit Nigerians for a long term

I would also not take a hit to change GK, but I have Kepa, and probably want Pope, but both seem good at the moment
Gyokeres is coming to Everton, and I think that I will have to include him into my team, not sure that he is going to help much, but not having at least one Evertonian seems wrong

Rashford captaincy could be good call for this game week
GK transfers very rarely pay out. They have just clean sheets to give them points and that is quite hard to predict.

Who the hell is Gyokeres? And why would you want him in your team Smiley Some of your young talents from Sorare?
BGD, like Buwaytress, makes underdog decisions. You can never predict these guys and sometimes their decisions always turn out well, but on a serious note, what would you do with someone from the Championship who has yet to kick a ball in a struggling Everton? Let's see how your scouting venture goes.

Rashford captaincy should be a great call but still waiting for last game in cup before doing any decisions. If United rested him in that game and they have 3:0 from first so they should I am giving him triple captain.
You're still holding on to your triple captaincy chip, man? This might be the perfect time for you, Rashford against Crystal Palace and Leeds United both smell like two goals and one assist. I've been fantasizing about KDB to Bruno and Martinelli to Ode/Saka, and this could be the week.

Is it possible that AI currency can change your life? Since the ChatGPT platform has been trending recently, that's why in this topic anyone here will know the top 10 AI crypto coins, this is based on the Forbes Advisor article.

He has already proven that the article was taken from somewhere and does not belong to him in any way by telling us the source of the article in his first sentence.

And you buy a player who CANT play UCL the only tournament when you have a little chance in this season? No words.
we bought then to prepare for next season, this season is already gone and BTW we can still register 3 players for our remaining UCL games  Cool
It was a rule until 2018/19 season that you can't register players for Champions League if they were already registered for another club. I think darxiomi thought about this rule when he wrote this. So Chelsea can register Fernadez, Murdryk and Felix for their 3 players but they will have to drop Ziyech or maybe injured Pulisic/Fofana to make space. That also means that they will not be able to register other newcomings such as Badiashile and Madueke.
The same thing happened with loan players a while back when they weren't allowed to play against their primary club, and I'm sure Darxiomi didn't realize we now have new rules that allow players to represent more than one team in all UEFA competitions.

With Jorginho leaving for Arsenal, we should have 4 slots open. Sure, Maueke will be dropped, but we need Badiashile on the team because he's been the backbone of our defense since his debut..

But is the ban permanent after the first offense? Even if it is, I always think there is some right to appeal. Either way, that's not the subject of this topic.
Yes. You will be permanently banned if you make a plagiarized post and the appeals are very unlikely to be accepted. Temporary ban is usually issued for spamming.
We have exceptions. There were many who were given a second chance and unbanned with the condition that they can not participate in signature campaign. Their signature space is disabled for a year or two. I don't know the gravity of the offense OP did but if it is slightly tolerable then a signature ban can give him a time for redemption.
Girlboy, the Global moderator has been so kind with ban appeal request, I don't know what offence OP committed but if it's plagiarism and he copied only that one time there is a good chance he will get unbanned without any Sig penalty just like the two unbanned cases from last year..

If your only offense is plagiarism, your chances of being unbanned are 50-50, but if it's ban evasion, you're screwed for life. Good luck.

Jorginho and Tottenham Doehty have moved on to a new club. Jorginho, who has 5 months left on his contract, is a good profit for us because the team was not going to extend his contract and he was going to leave as a free agent at the end of the season. I like Jorginho, but he's not the perfect DM, and I hope Arteta plans to use him in other areas of the game. What would happen to Saka now that they have a true PK taker on the team?
I don't think Saka will lose penalties unless he misses a few. He is their kid and club future while Jorginho is a player at the end of career brought in for cheap to provide rotation and a bit of experience.
J5 will perform well in a possessive team like Arsenal, I'm sure we didn't see his best at Chelsea, he didn't play half of what he did at Napoli under Sarri. I'm looking forward to the transfer, but if we don't get Enzo, we're in big trouble.

^ Saka doesn't lose his spot, if I know Arteta well. It took time and patience to exorcise Saka's misery at Euro (in fact, I think Arteta brought up the miss a couple of times already so we know he worked specifically on that) and you don't want to ruin a good thing.

That said, he's only had 1 pen this season....
Personally, I would not assign Saka to PK if J5 was on the pitch; however, this is just my opinion.

This guy used to be my favorite asset in the game last year, not sure what happened between him and Pep...
It was really strange thing to happen and I am thinking maybe Cancelo said after the World Cup that he wants to leave. That in turn caused Pep to do what he did and now Cancelo is going away. Problem is not matter what Pep says, he doesn't have a better full back at the club.
Pep only likes you when you are doing well, and if you want to survive under Pep, you must be extremely patient. Stone and Aker were backups to Diaz and Laporte, but now they are the first choice. When you are on Pep's team, your position is not guaranteed even if you are at the top of your game; he is ruthless because he has the resources to replace anyone. B.Silva and Foden are up next.

Martinelli to ODe/Saka is a no-brainer, I must need three Arsenal players for DGW23, so I'll probably do Almiron to Saka or Mitovic to Nketieh. What are your thoughts, man?
For short term I rate Arsenal assets as follows: Nketiah, Odegaard, Saka, Gabriel, Martinelli, Gabriel, Saliba, White. But any three of those is good enough and I wouldn't spend transfer on removing Martinelli.
i already have Saliba and Martenelli. Saliba is untouchable .

Cancelo move to Bayern Munich is 100% official+ €70m buy clause at the end of the season..... Nah no one saw it coming. I'm sure Pep and Cancelo relationship got broken.
Wow! What's he still doing on my team... I was looking forward to getting him out for Trippier perhaps but, without any free transfer at the moment, would FPL give this a free move? Can't be loosing any valuable points at the time.
I've asked such question in the past i guess i didn't get an answer.

If you still own Cancelo, you should think about transferring him out. Your squad value will take a hit as his price will drop today, tomorrow, and the next day, his ownership is nearly 40% atm.
