The Artful Dodger Posted August 27, 2020 Posted August 27, 2020 Havertz is superb, right manager could make him world class. Is Lampard that man though? Quote

And nobody should be paying anywhere near £90m for Havertz That's not really a counter to my point, in fact your comment is a strawman in itself. You don't agree, that's fine. We'll see what happens on the pitch. Quote

Given the drought of football we had over the summer I imagine everyone with some interest in football is reasonably familiar with Havertz. I didn't even know Chelsea had signed him, there must be plenty of competition. The Chilwell signing is questionable at that price, but given what Lampard is trying to build I don't think it's absurd. Money is not worth thinking about anymore really.

The Artful Dodger Posted August 27, 2020 Posted August 27, 2020 Just now, shut up said: I'm not attacking anyone, but I know you've probably only watched havertz on youtube and you don't watch Leverkusen regularly. It's okay to admit that you lie on the internet to get mates. it's nothing to do with Arsenal anyway, so that's a weird comment. You really are a bizarre individual. Just because you have no interest in football outside of it being some sort of prop for you own ego doesn't mean everyone else is like that. You've been upset ever since the Wilian transfer, I suspect it's because you're deep down a little bit annoyed that you're in the market for 30+ players and Chelsea are fishing in the pool for Europe's top talent. With Arteta at the helm there's no reason you can't get top 4 this season, and then you'll be able to compete for the best players again. It's a building process. Quote

Coupled with your arsenal obsession (esp. 6666), it comes across pretty grim. has an arsenal fan been having sex with your wife or something? As I've turned over a new leaf, I shall refrain from engaging in any further childish nonsense. We will see how the season pans out. 2 Quote

We shall see... we have other options as well if that's the case and bringing these players in means that he won't have to shoulder the lone responsibility of creating chances.. give them a settling in period to get used to each other and it could be a quality season for us especially if we can shut the door on a lot of the goals we let in... Hope he keeps faith with a lot of the younger players that finally managed to get game time last season as well... They did really well under him and we had plenty of possession in games just couldn't always turn that into goals but hopefully with the additions we will be more creative and clinical... Quote

Mount will start over Havertz. Being Lampard's illegitimate son is why. Quote
Cicero Posted August 29, 2020 Posted August 29, 2020 We will probably see more of this lineup, considering Lampard is opting for a DM and two #8's in midfield. Havertz himself claimed he considers himself a right sided central midfielder. Zouma will also start, in my opinion, to help with the language barrier with Silva. Azpilicueta also knows French. GK Azpilicueta---Silva---Zouma---Chilwell Kante Havertz----Mount Ziyech---------------------------Pulisic Werner Lot's of pressure on Lampard this season. Especially if we sort out the GK. Quote
Cicero Posted August 29, 2020 Posted August 29, 2020 (edited) Playing Brighton with 2500 fans in the stadium. Werner takes #11 Ziyech #22 Potentially Pulisic or Havertz #10 Edited August 29, 2020 by Cicero Quote

Bluewolf Posted August 29, 2020 Posted August 29, 2020 All over... 1-1 Good to see fans in the stands even if it was a bit sparse... Quote
