If CHO really is intent on leaving, he/his team won't play ball in the summer. There are so many questions surrounding the club, it's unreal.

They need someone to do the dirty work & Kante isn't within reach.

Hazard's gone the moment Real pick up the phone. The board need to have a replacement lined up for the inevitable instead of a last minute swoop for Zaha.

1 & half yr loan deal. Guess his Chelsea career is over

He played yesterday, so it clearly didn't have much effect. Bigger players in recent years have handed in transfer request, been rebuffed & stayed. Chelsea hold all the cards as of now.

It's astonishing tbh. He's getting close to Mikel numbers & that just isn't acceptable. Not to mention the potential ban we could be facing. Roman either has to invest properly or give youth a proper chance (Mount, James, Tammy, etc).

He isn't going to burn his bridges this close to the deadline.

Only really debate is RLC. No one has still nailed down the AMF spot, so the cycle goes on.

His intentions are quite clear. Will the board have a similar stance to the Willian saga?

He's the cheapest option on the market for their needs. Barca just spent €75m+ for a 19 year old and Bayern don't work that way. The move makes logical sense for them. They aren't going to match it with the big boys, so this is the next best thing. Quite straightforward

He is cheaper than most options on the market, so fee has little relevance in the discussion. Anyway, time will tell

All presumptions right now. Bayern are buying potential & CHO HOPES to replicate Sancho. The grass isn't always greener

Sarri said multiple times that he was lacking on the tactical front. I have no qualms about him wanting to move but rather the manner in which he's forcing things midseason. He ain't starting for Bayern against Liverpool, so wait till the summer and he can take the place he's lined up for.

What did Sarri say? I agree that he should have been given game time more often this season, but he's 18 & seemingly unwilling to fight for his place after 6 months. Him being a youth product makes things 1000x worse IMO. Shows little interest in the club

What use is having someone in our squad that doesn't want to stay? Only players that want to fight for the badge should be at the club. Quite shocking considering he's a youth product, too.

No one was offering £40m~, though. I don't see the club turning that down should the rumours be true.

If he has really handed in a transfer request, let him go.

Even more reason to go for him

Looked very good for the most part. Sarri needs to ignore the physical aspect for one moment & see what he offered in just 90 mins.

Emerson can't do anymore for Giroud

We ain't getting any decisions today

Why are we so narrow defensively?

They have no clue how to use it or pure arrogance

Nice to see us offer a threat where it matters. I don't even want to mention the officiating

Sarri actually making changes. I'm shocked
