This week myself and Macca were joined by transfer reporter Fraser Fletcher. Many will know him from his transfer news spaces on Twitter alongside Ben Jacobs during the January transfer window. Fraser has just started with Footy Insider as their new transfer correspondent, but he spent four years at BBC Sport before that and comes full of knowledge, and humour!
We covered:
Quick background on Fraser, how he got where he is, what he's now doing for Footy Insider, team he supports etc.
Chelsea madness - From a pro and outsider standpoint, thoughts from Fraser on fans asking for Potter to be sacked. Si & Dan also give their views.
From an insider point of view, any info from Fraser on how long Potter might have? Board fully backing him?
Fraser has mentioned potential contingency plans, Zinedine Zidane was one. What's the story with that and are there any other names? Any approaches for Pochettino yet?
From an outside standpoint, what does Fraser make of Chelsea's big spending in January and the players we signed?
Summer window plans. What are Chelsea looking to do? Any names you are hearing about at these early stages?
Summer window - Any info on players who will be sold?
Wrap it up - Dan quickfire to Fraser.
Honestly, this episode is NOT to be missed! Some great inside knowledge and news in this one from Fraser. And I’m sure you’ll agree, he was a great guest and bought so much to the table.
Make sure to give Fraser a follow here!
