Why did they sign him to the second three year deal? Had he just had a good loan spell?

It's like why do Everton keep signing these random 21 year olds?

Pretty sure he did his knee at Forest(?) and we gave him a 3 year deal after that.

Maybe you hope some of them will be good players. Like when we signed Robertson and Maguire.

Difference is we are signing them off of 0 professional appearances or minimal appearances. Those two had plenty.

Who are you talking about? I assumed you meant guts like Lookman and Holgate.

David Henen, Bassa Sambalou, Leandro Rodriguez, Shani Tarashaj, Felipe Mattioni.. thats just the last few years.

Well then your either being inflammatory or you’re just an idiot

Lol Danny Drinkwater. The classic example of a bloke ruining his own career for money.

Chelsea also stumped up a ridiculous £35 million for him as well.

BREAKING: @ChelseaFC sign @cpulisic_10 from @BlackYellow for £57.6m. Pulisic is to remain at Borussia Dortmund on loan until the end of the season. #SSN

Calling it now he's going to be a flop.

Pretty agressive mate.

It was a genuine statement, Gotze, Lewa, Hummels, and it was whenever you looked like challenging them.

You're killing it in the Bundesliga, not sure why it is "inflammatory".

Sarri claims he knew nothing about Pulisic !
so they have signed him without consulting the manager. Doesnt bode well for the player .

Thats how Sarri works, same as at Napoli. Hes happy to coach the players hes got or is given but doesnt get involved in transfers apparently. Hes a different cat.

The board asked him about him, he was positive so we bought him. Excellent.

Theres plently of other stuff like this if you google it. No need to worry.

Not sure about this. When asked on MotD about it he looked a bit annoyed and muttered something about only learning of yesterday. Mind you to be fair he never looks like a particularly happy bloke.

We've been linked with him for 6 months and tried to buy him in the previous summer(with Sarris blessing), so he would have had a fair idea. Maybe the quickness of the buying in the window maybe what he means? Sarri did say he was positive towards us buying him a month ago.

He's said many times transfer bore him and he'd rather focus on the players he has and theres others at the club to handle the other stuff.

Maybe hes annoyed that we didnt win?

At that price wouldn't it make sense to just retain him?

RossFC · Jan 3, 2019

Apparently Monaco want to fix their defence by signing Naldo and Sakho.

He wants to play, I'd prefer to hang onto him for 6 months and he can leave for free.

With EL and FA Cup there surely would be opportunities for Cesc. Any replacement you get isn't likely to be of the same quality especially in the winter transfer window. And what if they decide they want more game time?

yeah thats how Sarri is !!
I know he is weird with transfers . But it has to be worrying for Pulisic that he is joining a team where the manager doesnt even know him.

Yeah i dont know, sounds like Sarri gave this signing his blessing a month ago but just that he didn't know it was happening yesterday that is all.

Sarri on Pulisic: "I didn't know anything about Pulisic yesterday. The club asked my opinion about him one month ago. My opinion was positive and today I've known that the deal is done."

I agree with you, we should hang onto him for 6 months.

If Sarri wanted him he would be playing right now and not sent back on loan.

Aparently Sarri has little idea about the deal until it actually happened.

Do I actually need to spell out to you why that narrative is outdated?

Which of our players are Bayern going to buy?
