There was this narrative right after their takeover that Howe was doing really well with them before starting to make big signings with the new money, but now they have certainly splashed the cash on a number of big signings. Isak, Botman, Bruno, Tonali, Trippier, even Barnes and Livramento were pricey

I thought Chelsea were back?

Victoria Concordia Crescit

A lot of people try to make the point that MtF individuals have a physical advantage due to growing up as a male.

I would counter that point by saying physical advantages exist all throughout sports, regardless of sex or gender. Someone like Romelu Lukaku has a massive physical advantage over someone like Joe Allen. Or someone like Van Dijk or Haaland vs Youri Tielemans. Should they not be allowed to play in the same league?

He hasn’t done enough to earn the spot over Partey

I still miss Bellerin :(

Szczesny was quite good. Cech was meh, past his peak. Leno was very good, Emi was too for a hot minute. Ramsdale has been pretty good, and too early for Raya. Ospina was an average backup

Probably between Leno, Ramsdale and Szczesny

Yeah like… if he stayed at City he wouldn’t be starting as much but he’d be getting chances and people would still be starting to sing his praises as a breakout player

I don’t think you need to pay much attention to the opinions of 10-14 year olds

ffs, Ramsdale’s quote is being taken out of context. Read the original quote. He’s talking about how he and Raya work well together professionally and push each other to be better. And he says something like even though I’m suffering and hurting when I’m not playing, we help each other improve and there may be times where Ramsdale has to pick Raya up when Raya’s not playing
