Milan

So, if a son of Ruben Loftus-Cheek decided to marry a daughter of Callum Hudson-Odoi...

I remember reading reports that Lampard wanted Henderson but Man United refused to sell to us. And then he signed a new contract with them.

Nah, the Germans are just unhappy that they just lost a special player so they are trying their best to unsettle us. Kein Problem!

Literally, I am over the moon. We have totally and absolutely revitalized our attack and the best part is, they can all play together for SO MANY years! I cannot even begin to imagine the chemistry.

But but but, this saga has taken way too long!! We could have had him by now for several weeks!! (and for a full asking price). The patience of some...

He just wanted to congratulate in person his new team mate Timo on his first Chelsea goal.

I usually hate quoting old posts but after reading through the first page of this thread... Love this one.

Oh look, something to occupy @Jason 's mind and block his sleep.

Sooo, it has been almost a year and Mr. Pochettino is still jobless. Just wondering here why no club is touching him after being praised by everyone all the time...

Maybe if you mention it for the 451564165461054th time, the situation will change... Just like other members speaking about Pulisic and his injuries, you should shut the fuck up as well

There was a big interview with Petr Cech for the Czech press a few days ago, here are some most interesting bits - On last season - 'We met the primary target which was the Champions League qualification. The FA Cup final defeat to Arsenal hit us hard, though. Finishing the season with a trophy would be a different story. However, we managed to stand the test in difficult moments and laid the foundations for the next season. We will get only stronger and believe we will get much closer to the positions where we actually want to be.' On his new duties - 'It is such a huge difference, it is no longer just your training session. The academy, scouting system, first team, loan system... I had to make sure I can work and co-operate in multiple levels. It is taking much more time than when I was just a goalkeeper.' On dealing with players from other clubs - 'Being a former player myself, I understand other players' thinking and that helps a lot when I talk to Chelsea transfer targets. They are aware of my past achievements so it is easier to convince them that Chelsea are the right choice for their next career step.' On big money transfers before the season - 'Under some certain circumstances, some big money transfers may happen. However, there will be rather player swaps and loans. The current situation is highly unpredictable when it comes to financial impacts on clubs.' On Kepa - 'Without any doubt, Kepa did not have a good season. He was a big money signing and has a long-term contract, though. The club still believe in him. There will be new signings for sure, maybe even between the sticks. There are ongoing discussions in this matter. Nobody at the club is writting him off, we all are still hoping he will have a big future. The transfer window is open until October this year so there will be a lot of changes when the leagues are already underway.' On financial impacts on the club itself - 'Chelsea are on of the few clubs that did not fire a single employee and paid everyone 100 %. That was the owner's decision. He wanted to help every single member of the organization in this difficult period of time and wanted everyone to feel safe. There was a financial loss obviously, but we believe we will recover. It was a wonderful gesture that was appreciated by the employees and I believe they will appreciate it even more later on. It was also a great image for the club.' On fans returning to stadiums - 'While maintaining certain conditions, I full support the idea of fans returning to the stadiums. They are already allowed to go to pubs or shopping malls so I see no reason why stadiums should be different. They are also in the open space.'

Tbf, Rice has been indirectly asking Chels to bid for him all summer lol. Just do it directly now, tell WHU what you want to do!!

Really exciting to see this legend play for Chels!

Whatever indeed.

Fully deserved. Not sure what Jason is on.

"He is like the team's brain." "The boy is special."

He was supposed to miss a couple of first games, that was reported shortly after the FA Cup final.

Puli is injured.

When will we start selling dross, though? Emerson looks done, but what about Barkley, Batshuayi? May be harsh but I don't want them anywhere neat the first team.

I said it during yesterday's CL final. I was paying super close attention to Thiago and he just never stopped organizing the defence and his team mates, he was aware of every single player and knew how to play it. We will gain a BIG TIME by signing this legend, as this is exactly that thing that we desperately need at the back.

This is sick, though. After Ziyech and Werner. Chelsea close to agreeing Kai Havertz, Ben Chilwell and Thiago Silva deals Just get rid of that term 'close on' and make it 'sign' !

That speaks volume. Some no name, therefore unreliable source.

I am starting to put Voller on the same place as ADL. Cannot stand these big mouths.

So happy for Lewi!
