Joey, Calafori was never a target, the interest was a red herring. Chelsea been scouting Veiga for aong time, Veiga was the player FC Basle upgraded Calafori with and the basle fans even say Veiga is better.
I’m a Chelsea fan but stop being deluded, he isn’t better than Calafiori. That’s the same as Brighton fans were saying they upgraded when they sold us Caicedo and bought Baleba or when they were saying that Igor is better than Colwill. Calafiori has proved his talent at the top level, stop comparing him to Veiga and stop saying Veiga is better.
@@jac_91 it's not delusional.. it's facts. Veiga was being scouted months ago, ac Milan tried signing Veiga too. It's people like you that are clueless
@@jac_91 well your example doesn't make sense cause FC Basel is actually the bigger club that sold to the smaller club .. So in your example it's when Chelsea sells to Brighton not the other way around.
@@Bradlolnick interesting theory you got there. You do realise initially it was just Juv and Chelsea who were interested in him. Then PSG. Arsenal came into picture during the euros. If Chelsea were really interested they sure they would have made a move don't you think. Chelsea wasn't that impressed. That's the simple fact.
Ben Chilwell had some great seasons with Chelsea. But these were not in the last two seasons due to long tern injuries. The question has to be asked that if a player is good when active, but unreliable as to whether he will be active, is it good sense for the club to remain with the player?
Let's go Joey - can you make a tierlist vid of all the transfers so far (part 1), and another when the window has closed (part 2)? With Josh if he's available ofc :) Also, tierlists tend to work very well on RUclips
I agree; Disasi, Badieshille & maybe even Fofana should be sold and buy Silva from Benfica. Colwill/Silva start with versatile cover in Chalobah and Veiga
I don't get the hype behind Levi. The guy doesn't know how/when to be tight and when to offer space. Was done 100% of the time by Haaland for aerial duels. That's not good enough for Chelsea.
It's not that we want to. We have to. You don't get it? Think ffp. Chelsea can't spend the way they are spending without having money coming in. If we can't sell chalobah and Gallagher we may have to sell some important players to balance the books... Players like enzo reece James etc..
The problem with selling Cucu is that Cucu is that he's entering year 3 of his 6 year contract, which means we've amortized a third of his ~60 mil transfer fee. That means we need 40 mil just to break even. And there's not really any team in the world that will pay more than that for a left back that isn't much good offensively. Also, Chalobah was probably toast anyway, due to us signing Tosin. Levy, Bad, Disasi, Tosin, Fofana for a back 4 makes it very hard from a business perspective to not cash in the full PSR profit of Chalobah, even if he is probably at the moment the best central defender in the team. It sucks, I'd much rather keep Chalobah than Disasi, but one of them is just more profitable to sell.
I’m meeting Levi soon in Southampton my uncle will is good friends with his uncle so I’ll be saying I’m hoping to see him in the LCB I hope Trevor doesn’t go because I’m not sold on Wesley Fofana I don’t want chilly sold I feel the only reason he off form is because he was injured a lot of the time then he came back and his match sharpness wasn’t there on form chilly is great marc is showing how good he is because he was played all the time look at kante at the euros looks great for France and hasn’t been injured
This signing came out of the blue. I don´t know what to expect, but he clearly fits the criteria of players we have been searching for. Versatile and tall haha. He seems to be quite technical as well, and I only see him as a backup to COCO. Outgoings are inevitable, I think Ben Chilwell is leaving now, especially with the wages he has. We need to balance the wages to give our best players the highest ones. I want to see an increased one for Cole Cold Palmer. 100k is reaching you very soon. And, I LOVE THE CAMERA. Upgrading, step by step. Imagine how good everything will look in 6 months as you keep upgrading!
i agree with levi colwill starting but now we have way too many cbs (my top would be colwill adarabioyo fofana and now renato veiga which is too many let alone the others (badiashille disasi e.t.c.))
Chillwell makes Two Hundred Thousand Pounds a week! I hope he proves everyone wrong and plays out of his mind but that's a hard feat after being away for so long. I think we should sell him, even for 40 million would be great business! Find a team that needs some help with PSR and do a two way deal or smtg
I thought it was common knowledge that you use short term solutions for a short term problem. Chelsea should have looked for a loan to solve the problem. Not a permanent deal. Well sometimes when you loaded with cash you don't know what to do lol.
@@patricktinashe2812 getting a CB on loan for a year good enough to play that many games? Would’ve been an interesting market to say the least guess they should get you a job
Also how about putting in an extra 250k a week into the medical staff. Go and get the best. If we can keep players on the field chelsea can then save some money.
How out of touch with Chelsea reality can this guy be? How’s a player Fabrizio has been saying is being looked at to play hybrid LB/LCB, a left footed player spelling end for chalobah a right sided player. Trev was already gonna get sold. And how can you say Maresca don’t play more than two CB? His last line up against us had Doyle LCB Faes and vestegaard. One of the back 4 inverts to midfield and form a 3-2 build up shape. You’re out of touch. Veiga actually spells the end for your boy Chilwell
Спорт
You forgot tosin for the centre backs
Cucurella and Veiga at LB, best hair in world football
This guys passing range is actually class. Underrated signing
Chalobah's time was already up. This signing affects Ben directly, chilly is will be gone.
Veiga is left footed and plays on the left. Chalobah is right footed and plays on the right.
Unfortunate to help us win a champions league and gets pushed out the door like nothing
@@gradeydombrauckas9759he wasn’t the at the time…

Exactly Chelsea are not that team right now
😂😂😂 Your expectations on new signs is above Chelsea, Find another team please 😅
Actually he was, but when Chelsea inquired, the negotiations with Arsenal was to far advance.

Lets not care about age,,,if you are good you are old enough
True and we are trying things so we might as well try them when young to avoid spending 100m on the same players in 2 years time
Ben Chilwell had some great seasons with Chelsea. But these were not in the last two seasons due to long tern injuries. The question has to be asked that if a player is good when active, but unreliable as to whether he will be active, is it good sense for the club to remain with the player?
Arsenal can have Cauliflower and Rice
You are so mean😂
You keep forgetting Tosin from Fulham.
I think Fabriozo said CB and LB.
Hope you make 100k bro, and thanks for all the good content.
Love the content hope u reach 100k soon
Good luck to Renato & many thanks to u also for the shows, am watching all live from Monrovia west Africa.
Liberia?
Cuccarella is a seriously tenacious defender. Would be hard to replace him tbh. Chillwell will be the one out
Hi bro it has been a while to me it really makes sense and I love this kind of story come from no where
Just followed you.... You factual, passionate and honest
Hi Joey nice piece as usual, I hope this is another Gusto signing. Anyway talking about pre season, will you be heading to the USA with the team?
The camera looks great,brother.
KTBFFH
Mate the camera is class, huge upgrade 👌🏻
After I watched this I went full RUclips scout and boy can this kid spread a pass, hes a quarterback.
Let's go Joey - can you make a tierlist vid of all the transfers so far (part 1), and another when the window has closed (part 2)? With Josh if he's available ofc :)
Also, tierlists tend to work very well on RUclips
of course mate
@@JoeyKnightPodcast Looking forward to it!
@@JoeyKnightPodcastwhen are u and Josh making a video, you too look Better together 🥺
U look fucking solid in the at new cam Joey 😂😂
btw Renato Veiga was brought in to replace Calafiori at Basel in which he excelled
Get rid of Disasi and keep Chiloba.
I agree; Disasi, Badieshille & maybe even Fofana should be sold and buy Silva from Benfica. Colwill/Silva start with versatile cover in Chalobah and Veiga
Nope. Badiashile out
Fofana was like 80m he aint going anywhere @@user-es4br8zv7h
Veiga left footed and plays on the left. Keep Chalobah.
Do all of you know that Chalobah is under the 6th percentile for % aerial duels won? He only wins 46%.
I don't get the hype behind Levi. The guy doesn't know how/when to be tight and when to offer space. Was done 100% of the time by Haaland for aerial duels. That's not good enough for Chelsea.
Just come across your video and I subscribed asap
Let's see how you analyse stuffs
6’3 is crazy!! Him and tosin make us so much more of a threat!!
This feels like a very positive signing, almost like gusto, hopefully he is as good.
I don't get why we're selling Chalobah, shouldn't we be selling Disasi
It's not that we want to. We have to. You don't get it? Think ffp. Chelsea can't spend the way they are spending without having money coming in. If we can't sell chalobah and Gallagher we may have to sell some important players to balance the books... Players like enzo reece James etc..
Veiga does look like a good player for us
bro is a tank
gettin good vibes from this signing hope he starts against Wrexham
Cucu is currently one of the best left backs in the world
Tosin is going to be thr anchor of that defence line.
The problem with selling Cucu is that Cucu is that he's entering year 3 of his 6 year contract, which means we've amortized a third of his ~60 mil transfer fee. That means we need 40 mil just to break even. And there's not really any team in the world that will pay more than that for a left back that isn't much good offensively.

Where is the big-headed lad? I hope he’s just taking a day off.
Lol u mean Josh? 😂

Calafiori would have signed to play LB/CDM
Not a replacement for Chalobah but for Badiashile, as Veiga is left footed.
Any news on Enzo Maresca whereabouts???
Can I just ask what happened to the Euros content?
Is easy to say Chilly will go,question is ho is going to buy him 180 a week, do you really think he will except lower salary
If Trev had been fit last season we wouldn't have needed to sign Disasi, but now here we are was unavoidable
Veiga plays on the left Chalobah on the right.

@@Hippz118 we got a DM on loan the previous season?
4 left foot technically. Isnt sarr still on the books? 😅
Calafiori scored own goal in one of the Italian group stage matches in the Euros and that's a bad sign
It wasn't intentional mate, bar the own goal he was class for Italy
Chelsea should have signed califiori
Isn’t fofana left footed?
We actually have 4 player for RCB
You didn’t mention Tosin
We go for mamadashavilli now
Chelsea is looking for a ball playing goalkeeper. Mama is not one.
Who is fofana?😊
Cowell, come on mate. Maybe in a few years of development he will come good.. But for me, he’s a bit lazy.
Chalobah is better than Colwell
Got too much ego that he doesn’t even back up. Would be delighted to sell him honestly
Chalobah In 💙
We have already spent 103 million on transfers in 2024. With that 100m we could have bought Osimhen, Alexander Isak, Nico Williams or even Xavi.
Ofc we could only afford one of those players, we could not buy them all with 100m, each one of those guys is worth 100.
@@Promislandzionso bad idea then
He is a DM.
Not just a DM. Stop putting players in a little box. Chelsea signed him as lb who can invert and shall be used as such.
Joey please say our players names correctly its a big deal for us ...
No it not back in the day it was John dave and Steve half the name today are a bloody nightmare to say up 👆 the chels boys ⚽️💜🇦🇷🇦🇷🇦🇷
Chelsi will still sign left back coz Renato can play other positions
Why not Ferdi Kadioglu...that's a better, proven, versatile left full back who uses both legs
Anyone else getting Rodri vibes from Veiga????😎😎
Sounds like a left sided RLC regen in some ways
Day 7 of me asking to be on the podcast with you and Josh.
I'm seeing him being loaned to Strasbourg
Nope. Straight to first team
He won't be loaned. Sorry
What happened to sarr
That guy need his full salary
for the remaining contract period and a free transfer..rejected the opportunity to play for u21 's also..
Keep forgetting about Tosin so 4 right footers
yes mate your right, my bad 🙏
@@JoeyKnightPodcast ❤️
Colwil made an abundance of mistakes last season. He’s not ready. Stop gassing him up. Colwil is average
Yep
Time for Chilwell to move on
Bro he looks a real STAR BOY!!!😉🤔 I'm the only one who sees the Weeknd!!! Plus he looks a scary 🤬
Chelsea should sell Disasi instead of Trevor 😢
Chalobah at CB.Chiwell out.
Adarobioyo
Osimhen is coming relax
Colwill is not better player than Fofana and Tosin.
Perfectly said about chilwell and Chaloba but don’t sell Mac Cucurella
Send off disasi. Keep chalobah

Chill go back to hospital
your foggeting about the man you's nicked of us Tosin

Califori overrated and overhype Chelsea went got he's replacement too many Chelsea fan's wants 100 million players
Now let’s get Cucurella sold!
I think you meant Chilwell
He’s been the best left back at the euros, would be horrible to lose him
U listening to yourself
TALKING S*IT MATE, CUCU BEEN CLASS FOR LAST 4 MONTHS
shut up
still just buying random players, what a mid club
Time for Chilwell to move on
