Hi fellow blues.
Very happy with the madueke deal, especially with neto playing well and us having are eggs in the estaveo basket.
Maybe that's us done with our forward players, I've been impressed with nkunku in this tournament and I wouldn't sell him if he continues. The only player I'd like us to sign is Rogers from villa if we brought another attacker in.
Hopefully outgoings and sort the gk position and I'd be very happy.

I agree with you Steve, @circa £50 million and a huge profit the sale of Noni is a good one especially considering how well Neto is performing. Neto was always a stand out signing from last summers window and yet another example of how patience is needed when new players join.

Whether it is a good sale or not may only be determined in a season or two's time in terms of relative performances of Madueke v eg Neto still at CFC. But most of us will be hopeful that it will prve to be a good deal though at his best - which wasn't consistent enough again for most of us - Madueke able to use his physicality to get to the byline/ into the box that arguably Neto doent quite have. On the other hand Neto has mor pace and seems more often to take better final option in terms of crossing/ cutting back/ shooting himself. In recent weeks Neto has rightly been first choice and hopefully E Wllian will justify his nickname of Messinho. though quite a weight of expectation for the young lad.

Noni wanted to leave and apparently his representatives negotiated personal terms weeks ago!
If a player wants to go then goodbye as far as I’m concerned.

Tom, absolutely. It seems he wanted to leave and that the club were more than happy to to let him go. He’s not going to be a Salah or KDB and we’ve got Gittens and Estevao coming in. Personally, I found him very frustrating albeit he does have talent but not sure about his attitude.
