!Hazard!

Smells like Chinese/Singapore gambling money

Stop playing Fabregas in a midfield two ffs! What's the Italian word for masochism

I'd move Willian to RWB for second half and put Boga as #10 playing 3-5-2 with Morata and Batshuayi up front. Later introduce Baker and Pasalic into midfield to replace Kante and Fabregas.

Outstanding defending from Azpi. Never a penalty

More than impressed with Batshuayi. He's been the best player on the pitch by far.

Willian seems to enjoy himself at the moment. A lot more creative than usual.

Moses is useless in defence and attack

Torres never did that.

If Mendy is £52m and Walker £50m, then £60m for Sandro seems like a great deal. Send Matic on loan to Juve or whatever, as long as they get this done.

How about Sergi the RWB? Playing next to Kante and Azpilicueta in 3-5-2 (or 3-4-3) might bring out the best of his abilities. For 40 million this could be a great deal.

So so pleased it's Morata wearing the number 9 and not Lukaku.

This game is a proof that we need new wingbacks for sure. Alonso getting exposed badly by a top team just like many of us feared.

Time for 3-5-2? There's a ridiculous amount of space in midfield.

Why are we playing with Fabregas in a two-man midfield against Bayern? It was always gonna end in tears. On a positive side, Batshuayi's link-up play is really good and Boga looks impressive yet again.

Yes, Real Madrid waste. Just like Makelele.

Is there any chance Willian would play as a right wingback?

Very happy with this!!! And I'm not certain he will score more goals than Lukaku. But Hazard, Pedro, Fabregas, Willian and co will definitely score more than they ever would with Lukaku up front.

Yes the club has competent LB. Singular. Another one has to be bought anyway and in this market he will easily cost at least £30 million. Might as well buy a real star. And I am afraid that Alonso will be exposed by Barca, Real, Juve, Bayern.

I actually feel confident about this signing. The talent is there as everyone can see by looking at how he performed at Porto. Maybe playing as a wingback and being supported by Kante and Azpilicueta will bring out the best of him. Next summer he will be worth Alex Sandro money if he decides to join Chelsea now.

I thought he was sold like five years ago.

Walker, Sterling and Stones for a combined fee of £150 million. Lol.

If there was £250m "warchest" it would be nearly enough to cover for the transfers of Sandro, Morata, James, Bakayoko and Rudiger.

So we sold Ake to make way for this guy? Are you kidding me

Who?

Where's that quote from this forum that said something among the lines "Average players are debated, great players are universally regarded as great" ? Fits very well with Lukaku and this whole saga.
