Got some info that Schurs had agreed personal terms with Crystal Palace' but the valuation between 2 clubs is very far apart, will come as blow to us if he goes south, if we really were interested.

It seems Kloop has prioritised midfield before bidding for CB' so we will have matip and gomez.

Maybe Guehi is being sold by Palace and he is the replacement - just wondering and definitely not read or ITK. Not saying Guehi coming to us, but would welcome him.

Thanks Ed002, honestly didn’t know he came from Chelsea Academy, got to say they really do produce some excellent talent - great to see.

You rather like Chelsea fc don't you Mr. Ed002?! ?.

{Ed002's Note - Not as much as Klopp seemingly.}

That’s ok Ed002, our obsession with taking your best players and turning them into superstars and then selling our players to you, for them never to play as well as they did with us can continue for as long as it likes. (Salah/ Torres/ Benayoun etc)
Levi is next on our agenda wants some scouse instead of jellied eels I hear, come on Levi, jump ship ?!

{Ed002's Note - When did Liverpool sell Salah to Chelsea?}

I was not looking to instigate a debate about players from and to Chelsea, just appreciate the Chelsea Academy players produced - some excellent talent.

I know very little, just love watching football, chose Liverpool a lack of geographical knowledge (was very young in early 80’s) and picked a random team ??‍♂️ supported since.

Exciting season ahead, we’ve improved, Arsenal have and still plenty of transfer window left - thrilling times and for Ed002 - a new and talented manager - would be great to see Chelsea back in the mix ??

An exciting season ahead and some superb teams - great football and no rivalries - just the beautiful game ?.

Without rivalries the game is nothing.
Great to have you as a fellow supporter Dr Who but rivalry is everything in football.

Rivalry is great in sport but in football, it has devolved to be come extremely toxic and hateful.

But going back to the original topic, Chelsea have a wonderful academy and their infrastructure is something that we should be looking to implement. It isn't far from the truth to say that they have the best youth set-up in the country.

Not saying that Chelsea don’t have a great academy set up, but I seem to remember when Chelsea was the Man City of the league a few years back and was spending Abramovich‘s billions like it was peanuts, they stockpiled all the best young talent around for year after year.

From what i remember John Terry is the only good player out the Chelsea accademy i remember. We had, fowler, owen, gerrard, carra, mcmanamon, now we got trent, lampard cole, ashley cole all non Chelsea. So i would say our accadamy has much more world class players out of it than theirs.

Ed002, you know what I mean, your management team couldn’t develop Salah into the phenomenon that Klopp has developed him into you pushed the boy out to Italy where we seen a player and made him what he is today.
Chelsea fans would do anything to have a manager like Klopp sir, you know it!

{Ed002's Note - That is pretty embarrassing.}
