Seems like they’ve ruled it out.

Because Everton are shite and probably built it out of paper mache like those fake shops in North Korea.

I mean, any club can activate a release clause when the window is closed tbf - it happens all the time. We could agree the fee and terms well in advance so them being able to have them on the books sooner wouldn't make much difference other than they have an unfair amount of time to integrate. I see no upside to this for Man City and Chelsea other than that though because they will have to pay way inflated fees players who might be fucking shit in their set ups (or get injured with the extra games). -
To be fair to Pope though, he was class first half against Nottingham Forest, and even his distribution was great - two of our goals came from long throws by Pope if memory serves. He was dreadful second half but he was one of 11 players on the pitch at any point in time that were fucking shite. Yesterday, I don't think the first goal was his fault - Schar, Tonali and Tino were all more culpable and Pope's view was blocked. He got lucky with that kick straight off Salah. I still think Dubravka should have kept his place mind.

Even if he's technically still a better player, Dubravka was in good enough form to justify retaining his place IMO. It feels as though the games were just a sweetener to get him to sign a new contract and in doing so we've probably fucked him out of getting a hefty pay day in the middle east. As soon as they announced he'd signed he's been dropped for Pope.

We got taken over by an American firm last year. The bloke who flew out to the launch from America, who was meant to be the head of our region was negotiating a settlement the day he landed in blighty . A week later the head of corporate finance (who was meant to be our main contact throughout the integration) was suddenly no longer with the business too. I don't think I can count how many people who have suddenly disappeared from the internal contact list since. The only time we find out anything is when they are pushing public notifications celebrating an internal promotion into a job we believed was already filled . The sacking culture in America is absolutely mental to me.

What the fuck are Chelsea doing in the club world cup? They haven't won a European trophy (or the club world cup) since 2021. Surely, this interim transfer window has to be opened to everyone? Not like anyone will be willing to sell to either unless for mental money and most of Chelsea's players on mortgage length contracts anyway. -
Imagine finding out someone has been questioning your ability and slagging you off to strangers at the golf club. Then imagine finding out that the person was Sean Longstaff
-
He played in five - 3 league appearances and two in the cup - so half of that good run and then half of the Bournemouth game - where we proceeded to shit the bed in the second half after Schar replaced him at half time
-
Wasn't it Botman and Burn in CB for a decent chunk of those games? Maybe that's why, because Schar was banned/injured for a spell
