Still grinds my shit that edu & Arteta let a decent midfielder like Bissouma go to the scum for £15mill - He would have been a Huge upgrade on Clive. :?
That's why they got Zinchenko in. I hope they'll bolster the midfield in January. Remember Elneny extended for a season, and will leave on a free, Xhaka will be into his last year so it seems they were satisfied we had enough cover and didn't prioritise the midfield. Had Elneny not got injured we wouldn't have bid for Luiz on deadline day. Wonder if they can recall Tavares in January as he seems to have hit the ground running at Marseille.

Source: BBC Sports/Football :

Graham Potter has left Brighton’s training ground amid a growing expectation he will be confirmed as Chelsea’s next manager within 24 hours.

Potter spent just under two hours at the complex in Lancing together with long-time assistant Billy Reid.

He left without taking training as the club continue preparations for Saturday’s trip to Bournemouth.

It is understood Brighton are planning to hold a press conference ahead of that fixture on Friday but, as yet, it is not clear who will be speaking to the media.

Whilst other candidates, including Mauricio Pochettino, have been linked with the job, Potter quickly emerged as favourite for the role following Thomas Tuchel’s dismissal on Wednesday.

Neither Brighton nor Chelsea are offering any official comment on the situation.

I thought Bissouma cost much more than £15m?

Source BBC Sport:

France's 21-year-old defender William Saliba has indicated he would sign a new contract at Arsenal if the club offered him fresh terms.


Then get to it and sign him up with a 6 year deal at the very least with a Big buy out clause.

I hope those at the club who deal with contracts are on it right now. Saliba must be loving life at the moment, looking like the best CB in the PL currently, scoring, already has his own song that the players ALSO sing in the dressing room, he loves London, Media loving him.......FFS Arsenal, don't wait until the end of the season when, if we finish 5th or worse, we aren't looking such a great prospect, do the business NOW! This really is the time to get it tied up, Saka as well. As a young player I would be buzzing to be part of this group, the potential looks amazing and to be honest, with two more quality signings, we should be challenging for the title every year and maybe the CL too. Someone will come along and offer Saliba 200k a week in the next year if we don't tie him up. Fofana just went for 75m and Saliba is 5 times the player he is, we won't be able to replace Saliba if he goes so get him to SIGN DA TING!
Incidently, I disagree with you Bard about the clause, I wouldn't put a clause in because I don't want anyone to be able to take him off our hands for any money. I haven't been this excited about a CB since a young Mr Adams was on the scene.

it's better not to get too attached to Saliba because someone will offer silly money for him, and the club will take it :cry:

But if the buy out clause is Big enough, it'll deter all but 2 - 3 clubs.... Mind you regardless of any clause or contract inclusions/inserts it will be up to the player, because we all know only too well if a player (and his agent) decide he wants to be elsewhere, there is very little his current club can do about it. :?

All those complaining that we didn't go in for Arthur Melo on transfer deadline day, looks like we got away with one. Got substituted in the u-21 match for Jay Spearing.

That's a bizarre post Nos!! :lol: This time next year or next month he could be one of the best players in the world. I would not judge him on getting subbed. Even the great Dennis Bergkamp got subbed! :wink:

I wasn't one of them wanting him signed BTW. I'm a bit "meh" on him in general. :wink:

As an aside, Jay Spearing sets a new level for ugly bastarditis. He looks like the offspring of Iain Dowie and Luke Chadwick. :shock:

Hahaha potential best player in the world doesn't get subbed off playing in U-21 team that is losing. It tells me he's not cracked up what we think he is. Barely played for Juventus last season, goes from sitting on the bench for CL and PL games to starting and getting subbed off in the trophy competition for league 1 and 2. I'd understand if he was coming back from injury but he's fit enough to sit on the bench. Klopp doesn't usually operate like that. I'd say level of a slower, less fit Denison.
