Somehow I would not be against it, just don't see it. Chelsea won't do us that favor surely?
Can't he go to Inter so that we land Skriniar?

I am not too comfortable going itno the long season with only Dier, Toby, Sanchez and Japhet as CBs. It is not a disaster, but missing one solid option for me.

Just on the 'Chelsea won't do us a favour' point being made - obviously they would hate to help us,no question. But maybe helping us is actually the lesser of two evils for them ? I have no idea of their finances but it wouldn't be a shock if they needed to decrease their wage bill, they seem to have a large squad and all must be on top wages.

If it was the case that they needed to reduce it by X amount by the end of today, then no doubt they will do everything they can to do it without loaning Rudiger to us, but if they couldn't achieve that then what alternative would they have left ?

Sorry if this is a silly question but this wouldn’t have to happen today would it ? This or stones the deadline is the 16th ? So even if we don’t get a chance today there is still time right ?

Has to happen today, extended transfer window is for deals with EFL clubs

If we can’t get Skriniar I’d take him as we do need reinforcements at centre back and seems bizarre he isn’t first choice at Chelsea at the moment.

Then get Skriniar in January to partner him ??

Forgetting the Rudiger racisim episode for a moment....I do rate him as a proper CB.

But, I just cant see this deal happening. No way Roman is selling...let alone loaning him to us.

Why would Rudiger want to come after last year?

Why would Chelsea give us a centre back?

Why would we want him, when he would be clearly 4th choice?

This just doesn't make sense on a whole host of levels.
