I think Chambers has great potential and just needs regular games. Also coach like FDB could be ideal. Having said that would not be surprised if this is a back up plan just in case Martins Indi does not come off
Some people are like Slinkies … not really good for anything, but you can’t help smiling when you see one tumble down the stairs. |

This story sounds like complete nonsense. I really doubt there is any substance to it at all. He is overpriced and if we are about to sign an inexperienced CB for 8 mil we are hardly gonna spend over double that on another inexperienced CB. I don't think we've made a bid but I wouldn't be suprised if we are trying to bring him in on a season's loan (with a view to a permanent deal if it works out). We have to remember the manager is seeking to bring down the average age of the squad by bringing in younger players. Those who are versatile, can cover several positions, and who are comfortable passers. Chambers and Jairo fit this criteria.

Just a hunch but I think he will sign for us in the next 48 hours for a fee of £20M.

Don't waste your time with jealousy. Sometimes your ahead, sometimes your behind, the race is long. But in the end it's only with yourself!! |

I see more sense in buying chambers at 22, develop him into a 40m player in 2yrs time. No one knows if Riedewald will be a success, whereas chambers had a decent season for m'boro. They seem to think chambers is great player, I think they know more about chambers, than most of our fan base.

This £30m budget has come from nowhere - the last thing Sam said on transfers was they were looking at Sakho plus 2 or 3 others so, realistically, £40m+.
Will this be five? It's gonna be five! It IS five! |

I believe that the budget is £30 million plus any money from selling unwanted players. Allardyce hinted at Sakho (£30 million) plus two or three others,this would make sense.

Jim white and kaveh solkeh have both mentioned we are after callum chambers so there must be some truth in it they surely can't both be wrong but this is sky sports after all
