@CFCdruw I’d get both paz and Ndiaye

If you had the opportunity to sign one of: - Morgan Rogers - Nico Paz - Bradley Barcola - Iliman Ndiaye For Chelsea, who would it be? Surely Barcola, right?

Nico Paz: valuable because good, valuable because unique, valuable because available His volume of shots + duels + out of possession activity + aerial ability + final third entries is simply 1 of 1 for high level prospects over the past eight or so years. He filters as the only u23 player to combine his level of these metrics. And he's comfortable operating in central areas. And its publicly known that he's available. A year on, he remains an unreal market opportunity.

Literally, there’s a children’s board game whose whole premise is showing how free market capitalism ends with one person owning everything while everyone else goes bankrupt.

🇫🇷 Lacroix 🇪🇸 Ramon 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Wharton 🇩🇪 Nmecha 🇦🇷 Paz 🇸🇳 Ndiaye 🤷‍♂️

@CFC_OBED would probably be two separate deals for the books, but yes I think this may happen

Nico Paz + cash for Enzo Fernandez. Deal or no deal ?

this attacking depth could be scaryyyyy 🔥 L10 - Nico Paz, Ilimian Ndiaye R10 - Cole Palmer, Estevao tell me that alongside Pedro is not the best front 3 in the league 🤯

although sad to see both go, Enzo & Chalobah could be a part of a 2-way swap deal. Chalobah -> Como Jacobo Ramon -> Chelsea (Como pay an extra 10-15m, or both separate deals) Enzo Fernandez -> Real Madrid Nico Paz -> Chelsea (Real pay extra 40-60m, or both separate deals)

have a feeling Nico Paz will be joining…would still prefer Ndiaye but I’m definitely not against both. - both not at the level to demand a guaranteed starting spot, so can battle out the L10, whilst Paz being cover for Palmer. - would be a massive upgrade on our attack

@alialtaktik not really I’d say Wharton is a deep line progresser, and whilst Barco does do that he more dictates and is a final ball passer

Wharton and Barco in the same midfield feels like overkill, much like Santos, Essugo and Caicedo. The overlap outweighs the complementarity. Ideally, you need a different profile to balance the unit.

I don’t think people quite realise the amount of progression we’re going to see with this as our double pivot - wow 🤯

@BiHanBot @Ore_Yusuf watching every single game of his and every pass of his 9/10 goes forwards or breaks lines

@MeasuredByMagic @Ore_Yusuf 2nd best my ass, what has he done to earn that accolade?

if enzo does leave we have to sign progressive midfielder, a quality one. none of this sangare, wharton bullshit

@Iewdawg think he’ll be loaned out mate, unless James is being played a RWB/midfielder than he probs can be used

all well and good but there better be a plan for josh to be integrated this season

@Blue_Footy think it will be Ramon-Lacroix-Colwill back 3. Have a feeling RJ can do RWB still, especially if Quenda is subbing in

Lacroix is an out-and-out defender, like an old-school CB. As long as we don't task him with progressing the ball frequently, he will make a good partner for Colwill. If he plays in the middle of Colwill and Reece, those two will likely be the progressors. I just like his feel for defending. We have lacked a natural defender, someone who loves to get his body dirty and fight for every ball.

not a bad back 5 at all… I like Lacroix as a signing, but he has to arrive with Ramon - due to his on the ball struggles. having Colwill and Ramon either side of him progressive cheat code, which is always my main prerogative with back 3s. Josh HAS to go on loan to Palace!

@CFC_Isaac @_JoeAlexanderr that’s what I’m thinking, without the loan would be around 140m; 80m for Wharton, 50m for Lacroix. But if we gave him as a collateral loan it would knock a bit off

@MeasuredByMagic @_JoeAlexanderr Chances are we sign Lacoix for 50 odd and there's no way they only accept 70 for Wharton. Especially with how much Anderson just went for and the price tags on Fernandes and Alex Scott. Probably take another 20 mil if its just a loan for Josh.

How realistic is a double swoop for Wharton & Lacroix? Would Palace even sell both?

I don’t mind this signing at all as long as another signing in Ramon follows brilliant in every aspect we need, only reservations are: - on the ball ability: seems poor, especially as he had an easy out-ball every time with a target man in Mateta - ability to play high line

@CFCdruw think he’ll get sent on loan to palace

PLEASE don’t sell Acheampong, man. Disasi, Badiashile, Trev, Tosin, and Wesley should ALL be sold before him. It’s that simple!

@SS____899 bro I agree that he is a brilliant prospect, but he’s now better than Josh - nevermind Jacobo Ramon

Only an Unserious Coach / SD choose a player of Lacroix’s ability over a player of Ordonez’s. Remember, this is my forte. They’re levels and Ordonez’s is top 3 CB itl, lacroix despite being a good player isn’t the same calibre.

@classicJay92 someone of that nature is simply unattainable, as all of them are settled in successful teams. That’s where sadly you have to rely on scouting from either mid table PL teams or promising yet not raw CBs that performed well and due a boom. E.g. both Ramon & Lacroix together

@MeasuredByMagic Marquinhos or someone of his level, an experienced CB at the top level who can bring experience to the team and play one game a week without any issues. I don't want another high potential youngster or a CB from a mid table team in the premier league, we don't need another Tosin.

if it’s between Jacobo Ramon and Lacroix, Ramon is 10x better - elite progressive passer - somehow better aerially / taller - better defending wide flanks - better receiving in dm positions however if they back Alonso and wanted a 3 if Ramon - Lacroix - Colwill, I’m not mad.
