Got to say I am hugely looking forward to seeing him receive the ball during a counterattack instead of Doucouré.

Eh? Palhina is only defensive value, KDH is only attacking value. They're inversions of one another

I know, I worded that badly. I think KDH is much more of an attacking mid than he is a CM - hopefully playing the Doucoure role. I don't think we'd pay 25m for that, AND big money for a winger, AND an expensive loan for Grealish. Maybe we could...

It's almost as if Southampton can smell the desperation. Wonder what give them that idea...

Up the expected to be rebuffed blues.

Talked myself into thinking KDH is the Doucoure replacement, rather than being earmarked for Garner's spot. Makes more sense stylistically but I didn't expect us to want to spend that much money there.

No chance we get Grealish if we get KDH. It'd be the Gylfi/Klaasen/Rooney summer all over again

Just cos he's at Chelsea and their cattle farm does not mean that he's "good" or worth the original fee they paid. They bought him for £30mill. He started 2 games in the prem last season, hes a year older. Yet his value hasn't diminished. You...

This is how I feel about him positionally. Which is weird and I can't really make sense of this transfer - we desperately need a defensive mid (because Gana is ancient and going to the AFCON) and a passing CM who's okay defensively (because...

Lol never mind, Boyland says Chelsea want minimum 30m. We'd be mad to pay that imo Edit: although I think we probably will. Just seems daft to me

They are opposite players. KDH does very little defensively - I'd even be surprised if Moyes fancied playing him as an 8 in a double pivot

We better not be paying them the full 30m they got him for. Good player tho

Logging on to check for transfer news was worth it purely to read the phrase dozy little scruff imo.

Got to say it is nice of them to say to Boyland look, go on holiday for a few days, we won't do anything anyway so you can have a nice relaxed few days off pal.

Has there been any more news on fee etc since our last bid?
