    I don't think Mosquera joining means Kiwior moving on, as you say he provides good cover for Gabriel as well as being passable at LB against lower calibre opposition (he's certainly better at LB than Cala)

    and I suspect Mosquera, while he can play in multiple positions, is seen as mainly a Saliba cover

    BTW if the club has any sense at all (which remains questionable) they will hold off announcing Madueke until they can announce Gyokeres or Eze first, or otherwise at the same time

    Honestly - I find the bed-wetting re Madueke pathetic. I get that fans are nervous about other transfer business, but the guy is not shit, and £48M plus add ons is the going rate for an established EPL player. Who gives a fuck if he's from Chelsea...he has been bought as back up and I can't see the real issue with this.

    I was a bit disenchanted with our transfer business a few weeks ago, but we are getting things done. The Gyokores noise over the weekend was self-evidently just that...noise and we will get this done.

    I'll be disappointed if we don't sign Eze but 'Areta out' over our transfer business (I include the probable deals here) as at mid July? WTF???

    A month ago I thought some of the rhetoric on here was a bit silly. The dust of the previous season had only just settled.
    The longer things go on though the more nervous people will get - we do have "previous" for this sort of prevarication.
    That said, it does seem like we are getting things done now so I'm a little more optimistic than I was.

    Deffo this.

    I know I was being hasty with my daily posting but historically we have been there too many times in the past where we have been let down.

    Initially the Madueke transfer was annoying but he’s a decent player and when he pulls on the shirt he will get full support I’m sure.

    Berta has been a huge difference maker in our plans this summer though (which I said he would be a game changer) and we seem like we are showing the correct level of intent.

    I’m really looking forward to this season now, I hope we also get Eze over the line, and who knows, if Trossard goes we could even see a late attempt at Rodrygo too

    Yep...our frustration was understandable given past transfer seasons, but things are now looking good. If we manage to get Eze this will count as a great - and efficient transfer period. Who'd have thought this even a couple of weeks ago?
