What does this mean for Kenedy...? Back to Chelsea or competition...
I'd imagine he'll continue at Left wing and Lukaku is more left wing back option
I'll Hazard a guess

Kenedy will continue in the ineffectual floaty free role with Atsu and Perez while we thump balls at Rondon.

On the plus side maybe this means Ritchie shuffles forward, but I'm not entirely he fits higher up in the 5-2-2-1.

Imagine being at a bar and asking for a Brasserie Cantillon Fou' Foune beer only be told they don't have any. After 7/8 attempts of ordering different beers you end up settling for a pint of Stella.

That good.

Damn that's bad! Presumably they had run out of horse piss, because i'd rather drink that than Stella.

There may not be a bigger gap in the beer world than between the brand and quality of Stella.

I've got no gen on the lad so no idea if he's any good or not. But at least it's one position took care of.... for now.
It’s the noise, the passion, the feeling of belonging, the pride in your city.

I've heard talk that the purchase fee at the end of the season is 6.5m makes a lot more sense then the initial 19m reported.

I'm hopeful he'll be a good addition for us, from what i've seen of him and I hope I won't won't scare people but I'd actually compare him a lot with Yedlin he does his best work high up the pitch he's got decent pace but ins't easily knocked off the ball (a bit like his brother he is a bull of a man),

I think and have actually read elsewhere is that he'll work brilliantly with Rondon in regards to where he seems to deliver majority of his balls.
I'll Hazard a guess

I'm actually at an event in the ground and have spent the last hour staring at the pitch looking for a photo shoot. It's the closest to in the know as I've ever been...

I can see Ashley's seat too but the doors locked. :(
