Eco Posted January 24, 2018 Posted January 24, 2018 Roma has a big game today against Sampdoria, and Edin Dzeko is reported to be out of the starting XI as the Bosian is close to be agreeing a move to Chelsea. Di Francesco did state yesterday that he was intending to play Edin, but not it's being 'leaked', that Roma will go with 3 up front tonight of Nainggolan, Schick, and Defrel, meaning Dzeko is more than likely gone. Emerson Palmieri is also reported be out, which means Roma is more than likely losing two of their best players after already losing Salah to Liverpool. https://www.football-italia.net/116086/report-roma-leave-out-dzeko
Cicero Posted January 24, 2018 Posted January 24, 2018 Sky Sports claiming we have agreed a deal with both Dzeko and Emerson

Administrator Stan Posted January 24, 2018 Administrator Posted January 24, 2018 34 minutes ago, Kitchen Sales said: Emerson must be in his late 40's now surely? He and Juninho got bossed by Garry Parker and Neil Lennon in the 1997 League Cup final.
ScoRoss Posted January 25, 2018 Posted January 25, 2018 Roma continuing to be a supermarket. Their transfer dealings recently have been exceptionally poor. Yet to come close to replacing Salah and now Dzeko close to leaving with very limited time to bring someone in.
True Blue Posted January 25, 2018 Posted January 25, 2018 Denied that we struck a deal, not happy with the offer apparently.
SirBalon Posted January 25, 2018 Posted January 25, 2018 After the only but that I would put in Conte’s tenure so far in charge of Chelsea as head coach in terms of his administering of Diego Costa, signing a player like Džeko would go some way into adjusting that unbalanced squad situation where the front line is in question. Edin Džeko would be a very good player to have to rotate or even play along side Morata... It would relieve the solitary campaigning Álvaro Morata has to do up front when we consider that at Real Madrid he played in a front two as he also did at Juve.
Honey Honey Posted January 25, 2018 Posted January 25, 2018 Why would he want to go to Chelsea knowing that he was 3rd on their list behind Andy Carroll and Peter Crouch

Cicero Posted January 25, 2018 Posted January 25, 2018 Dzeko transfer being held up due to negotiations of contract length.

Dzeko is like Kane, scores goals but not that great at anything else, if you want a pure goal threat he will be good for you, he's great in the air too but nothing special at passing and is slow

See it out, leave on a free, pick up a huge signing on fee with massive wages for another club ....Happy days! Unless he’s thick?

Emerson looks to be off as well as he was part of the deal. Shame really but should of known better, as they are players that would actually improve us. Rondon and Leighton Baines obviously the likely candidates. Probably the same price too.

Would be so typical of our board to cock up negotiations like with Llorente and Sandro in the summer. Nothing concrete and I'm still assuming they are negotiating.

LFCMadLad Posted January 25, 2018 Posted January 25, 2018 1 minute ago, Happy Blue said: He's waiting for United to pay him 500k a week That’s my point! In today’s game, the shorter the contract the better if you want to earn the maximum throughout your career. Keep running down your contract, sign for another club with a massive signing on fee and higher wages. Why would any established player that attracts interest sign a long term deal?
SirBalon Posted January 26, 2018 Posted January 26, 2018 The latest news from Italy is that the reason the transfer of Džeko to Chelsea has complicated itself is because Roma’s technical director for sport, Monchi, has stopped the move. There seems to be a split aat boardroom level on what Monchi wants and what he’s permitted to do.
Administrator Stan Posted January 26, 2018 Administrator Posted January 26, 2018 also if Giroud is going to Chelsea then they don't need Dzeko and Chelsea have probably told Roma as such.
SirBalon Posted January 26, 2018 Posted January 26, 2018 3 minutes ago, Stan said: also if Giroud is going to Chelsea then they don't need Dzeko and Chelsea have probably told Roma as such. I think the Giroud to Chelsea scenario is a situation that has occured out of the blue because of the fact Giroud doesn’t want to move away from London because of his wife. What’s for sure is that Roma stopped negotiations with Chelsea for Džeko yesterday and from there other rumours have grown... I would rather have Džeko than Giroud myself to be honest although the good thing about Giroud (at least at Arsenal) is that he’s never really kicked up to much of a public fuss when he lost his first team place and was given more of a role coming off the bench.
