didn't like dembele against us. he's good on the ball as his close control is great and his acceleration is incredible but Mbappe even though is 2(!?) years younger already seems much more polished. he might be a tad slower but his movement is smarter, his finishing is sharper and looks to have more flair.

Bulshit. Dembele is tiers above him in everything. Just because he wasn't great against it means nothing. And he was still their best player. Sometimes we make near and Messi play bad too remember.

Every move of dembele is flair.

IIt looks like u didon't really watch dembele other then with us.

So I am still unclear- are we able to sign and register players this window?

We can sign but won't be able to register anyone till next summer. We can sell players too. We don't normally sign players in Jan so us being banned is of no concern to us really

Okay, thanks. I had heard some conflicting stories about another delay in the ban.

I just wish we could sign some rotation players, that would be nice.

There were links, probably unfounded, that Juve might look at Danilo this summer.

I know he has been shit, but what exactly has been his problem?

His positioning is horrible as a RB- He flies forward and is left in no mans land, his defending isn't great either. At LB he has actually been quite competent, as he is much more conservative in his positioning.

To simplfy it- he is a right sided Marcelo without the touch or passing range.

Well the flaws of Danilo, where do i start:

-He passes like he is playing for the opposition team, a simple 3 yard pass will be wobbly, too far ahead or horribly miscued
-His first touch is like ball bouncing on bloody concrete
-He is waaay out of position and just jogs back while he lets our RCB try to stop the attack all by himself
-He ignores runs in behind him time and time again
-His 1v1 defending..........let's just say he'd find a way to make even the worst LM look like a WC winger
-His crosses are horrendous but in his defence the state of crosses from our other FBs are quite poor
-Even the way he runs is peculiar. Almost galloping like a horse

If Juve wants him we should definitely sell. Don't get me wrong i like that he tries his best but even that is not RM level quality on its own

In Juve's system with little defensive responsibility and a midfielder very close to him, he can be decent. His shots are quite good with both feet so he might score some goals too

Danilo has truly been a disappointment. What hurts the most is the 1v1 defending and his first touch. I don't think any club will buy him off us so I expect him to run down his contract until he has a year left and we have to concede him for a small amount like 10 mil

After that Sevilla game, Florentino will definitely buy another keeper in the summer.

He was already unsure about him.

Navas has not been the same keeper he was last season.

Last season he felt unbeatable and on par with De Gea, this season he has looked average in many matches and only above average in some. Not even close to his ability last season.

I would take either one of Courtois or DDG over this Navas. Both will have 2 years left on their contract by summer. I think both players would want to play for RM, but I am not sure which player would be easier to buy or if it would even be possible.

His Achilles injury destroyed him. The navas from last season was amazing to watch though

At this point, Courtois rumours are nothing but BS.

I think he'll eventually return to Spain, but Chelsea won't let him go easily, just look at Costa.

when you say the Courtois rumors are BS, are you saying that our club are not at all interested in Courtois? you got some insight here, please share

i have never seen a big player "easily" leaving a big club, so even if we try to sign him, we all know it will be a mess.

And there is no need to look at costa lol, no club likes to let a player go midseason, not even Aston Villa...

Of course I am Internet Bullshit Artist.

Here is the phone conversation:
Perez: Roman, I would like to buy Courtois.
Roman: No.
Perez: Hear me out, starting bid of 30m pounds.
Roman: No. *Hangs up*

I wasn't talk about Costa in Jan, I was talking about the last summer window, he wanted to go, Atleti wanted him, but he didn't go because we put our foot down.

It won't happen unless Chelsea see a benefit from it.

Atleti wanted to buy him relatively cheaply, which was the problem. Chelsea couldn't buy a similar or better striker with what Atleti offered.

Chipping in with info. Marcos Alonso wasn't playing so-so, he was really good the last two seasons at Fiore. He only just moved to Chelsea this summer and is a starter, probably won't be moving anytime soon.

Marcos Alonso was available for free but instead we decided to play a whole season without a back up LB and again this season decided to bring back chronic crook Coentrao after again opting not to sign him. He was never really an option from what I remember, it was always Rodriguez or Gaya. That's very poor planning from our club. I always wanted us to bring him back but oh well

Alonso is a starter for Chelsea, he is not going to come here to play in the Copa and the odd league game. Although ZZ does in his defence rotate alot and our medical team being a bunch of fraudulent crooks he would probably get more playing time than expected

Maybe his teammates from Castilla can persuade him. This is a period in time where we are focusing more on our youth than buying overpriced players so he wont get buried on the stands like he would have been just a few seasons ago

Still it doesn't work like what you mentioned bill. We can't just dangle the RM crest in front of him and expect him to come. There is alot more persuasion that has to be done than that
