DakotaVilla Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 1 hour ago, JAMAICAN-VILLAN said: We are always a couple of injuries away from this scenario totally changing. We also have a tonne of games to play. When Kamara is back, we already have potentially Duran, Ramsey, McGinn (or Tielemans), Philogene and Buendia who could play in similar roles but be on the bench. There’s so many of them that they can’t even all get on the bench so we have plenty of cover for injuries. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tony Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 Shame as I feel he would have suited our style perfectly, but anyone choosing Chelsea right now isn’t doing it from a football perspective. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mazrim Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 I'd rather keep Duran than sign Felix, if that ever was a choice. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaAlex Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 Delighted, I've said before he's not right for us. I think he'd completely imbalance the team and we are better off persisting with Rogers whose potential is frightening. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jas10 Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 Will be a relief to move on from this, regardless of personal/individual thoughts. Guess we will never know about the level of interest or offers. Will be nice to be able to focus on other things, since this is not happening now. He’s walking into a mess at Chelsea but maybe that’s his only choice and option. Probably agent led too and hinged on the Gallagher interest. - I’d like to see more business but it will be nice when the window shuts. Full focus on our club and players… so much to enjoy and look forward to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the plan was Diaby and Duran leaving and replacing by Felix or other top versatile Forward who can play 9 if needed but also as the 10. Duran staying changes things. Too many pieces needed to fall into place that's why nothing ever happened when our interest in Felix was reported. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Indigo Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 The funny thing about this one was whether it did or didn't happen you could make an argument for it being a good thing. If Duran is staying I'm not sure where you'd find the room for him in the squad anyway, with the amount of attacking players already there.

The_Steve Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 Wrong mentality to pick Chelsea at this juncture. Oh well. I'm focused on players that want to be here. Onwards and upwards. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It might be the only option he had… he can’t stay at Atletico. Hard to know if we ever made any kind of offer… no evidence that we were turned down or rejected. I dunno, no longer care tbh Plenty of players out there and we already have brilliant ones. We march on… get on board or gtfo basically Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thejoker Posted August 19 Share Posted August 19 What an idiot. He had the perfect opportunity right in front of him with a coach desperate to sign and improve him. Instead he’s going to a basket case of a club that don’t really want or need him. It is purely to help satisfy PSR. He’s literally throwing his career away. What a fool. His loss.
