    Apparently that lad from arsenal is more of a winger than striker.

    Surely the art of picking up the right players, for the right deal, is to find the ones who haven't quite been performing to their right level.

    It's a little disconcerting to see people saying our targets having been setting the world alight at their club's ...

    .. if they were we probably wouldn't be getting close to signing them.

    He's been very poor this season. Something has clearly gone wrong with him.

    I was just wondering why he'd even consider going there ...

    ... he's hardly a Dyche kind of player and he probably couldn't put up a good fight if the supporters pulled him out of his car.

    Totally get that mate but he’s playing in the u21 league, that’s not really a level to be underperforming at if you’ve anything about you. Good youngsters are generally playing well ahead of their age group if they’re not loaned out. Taking a chance on someone like Lihadji who’s played at a higher level is fair enough, but taking a chance on someone who’s been underwhelming in u21 football that’s probably equivalent of national league standard/L2 at a very push is a big gamble.

    TBH mate, I've no idea if that's the case ...

    ... I know the name and that's it.

    These clubs have so many young lads it's impossible to keep track.

    I have no idea what Chelsea are playing at. Potter has a hell of a job blending this bunch into a team. It doesnt look particularly well thought out to me at all.

    I hope they never win another thing ...

    ... not long since they were complaining about Man City's spending.
