His father works as a scout for Chelsea.Handy to know . Dad whispers to son who whispers to Dean smith for some talent for the club.
He has a lot to prove but it would be good to get him and Axel in permanently

And therefore we need to be circumspect on players we add and remove from them at the cost. Especially after a dozen years when we were anything but.I am a fan of Mings - I wouldn't spend 20m on a 26 year old who has played less than 100 games. Well I would if his name was Paul McGrath

Evidentially awesome. This is quite some chart, out there on his own to the point that in statistical analysis he’d be dismissed as an outlier...

Maybe some slightly to the right of Mings ought to be scouted as potential incoming CB for us?Can you supply a link to the original?
Read over the shoulder of someone that we’d agreed a fee of £14m. Couldn’t make out what the site was. No news on that?
