That's true.

Abdou Diallo, 26 from PSG linked.... 6'2 CB

He has good pedigree, having played his formative football in Germany at Mainz and Dortmund, however has only been a bit part player for PSG for the last 3 seasons. If he is not good enough to hold his place in a farmers league how's he going to coe with Premier League?

I’ve no idea about him, but what I would say is I don’t think you can draw much of a conclusion on a defensive player’s quality just because he doesn’t get in the PSG team. He might be way too good for the league and still not play.

Exactly. You can't hold it against the guy for not getting into a back 3 with Kimpembe, Marquinhos and Sergio Ramos.. its a new system for PSG and maybe it doesn't accommodate his skillset for whatever reason.

I heard from my Chelsea contact Callum Hudson-Odoi will be an option to go.

I heard from my Chelsea contact Trevoh Chalobah is in talks with Inter over a season long loan.

My Chelsea contacts says We have the right to work.

My Chelsea contact said she's up for it if I can travel down.

You've left a hostage to fortune with that statement.

No muff to tough, you dive at five, as they used to say.

It's going to be Jan Fecking Bednarek isn't it

I think I would rather have Chester back on loan....

[ozzjim]

I'd rather play Feeney. If we are writing off the season might as well.

I like the sentiment - but having watched the U21s last week - I wasn't convinced. after all he is what? 17/18?

Shrug. Bednarek is as underwhelming as Oyvind Leonhardson.  Its not even Zat Knight levels.

There's little point in signing Bednarek. It's not as though we've got European football, etc. Give the young lads and chance and see what they've got if Konsa, etc, get injured. This time last year how far down the picking order was Archer? Now look at him.

It sounds like the links to Serie A have more substance.. cross your fingers.

I did read that Juve want to offload that Zakaria. If true we should be all over it,  perfect for our midfield.  Bit of height and a bit of bite.

Ralph Husenhutal on Jan Bednarek being a leader:

“Bednarek, for example, is not a young player anymore, he should be now turning into a leader.”

Bednarek seems a decent chap and character and has a good mindset so maybe it could prove to be an astute signing. He does give his all.  Not much of any upgrade though.

What a strange signing that was, even SGT admitted that he forgot he existed until he saw his name on the back of the programme when we played Spurs. Tbf I think he actually scored one or two important goals for us.
