❗️Rogers has previously said that Palmer is the “first person to text me” after matches, while Palmer has said: “We pretty much FaceTime each other every day. About life. He’s my mate. We don’t just speak about football,it’s about everything.” [telegraph] https://t.co/M9RTq3XXyV
Exclusive shots as Morgan Rogers arrives for his medical with Chelsea ahead of completing a British-record £117m move from Aston Villa 🔵
Rogers is then expected to sign a six-year contract at Chelsea with the option of another year until 2033 📝
Rogers has zero interest in going to Chelsea.
He wants to compete for the PL and play UCL football. Chelsea have finished top 4 just once in 4 seasons (placing 6th, 10th and 12th the other 3 times) and haven’t competed for the title in 9 years.
Also, Chelsea can’t afford him.
The only wanted Chelsea bit bugs me.
Morgan Rogers has met Arteta already and spoken in length about joining. Player was sold on joining us.
Clearly the clubs couldn’t agree or the club pissed Villa off in some degree.
Had it on good authority the player was sold on Arsenal.
Rogers will sign for no more than £100m. 85m fixed, with £15m in add-ons. Villa fans are living in dreamland if they think he will go for £130/£150m, as some are suggesting.
Rogers is a wonderful signing for Chelsea. Can play anywhere behind the striker, PL and CL proven and close mates with Cole Palmer. Guess they’ll both be doing the ‘cold’ celebration next season. It’s a hell of a coup given the Arsenal interest.

🚧 “The two midfielders [Rice and Anderson] are limited!”
😲 “I think [Rice] might be a centre half!”
Graeme Souness believes England’s midfield pairing are not as good as people make out…

How bad an outfit are AMO Racing.
Cant keep a stable jockey, cant keep a trainer, and literally waste tens of millions on utter shit.
POKER - £4.4m he cost- he’s just finished last by 35+ lengths in a novice stakes on his 5th start and is still a maiden.
