AKE OR BREAK Chelsea in shock £40m move for ex-defender Nathan Ake The Blues - who sold the 23-year-old to the Cherries in 2017 - have a buy-back option on the Dutch international https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/football/8180678/chelsea-nathan-ake-summer-swoop-40m/

A lot here are always depressed and angry! But lets hope we have some reasons to be cheerful before we beat them (Do your stuff @Fulham Broadway )

The vid was uploaded a month ago but maybe just the League goals? They didn't count the Int Friendlies It does concern me hes not scored a goal in 2 months but hes had 5 assists. 22 Goals last season. 16 assists Just depends on the price. IF he was cheap enough he would make a good backup. Dunno his price tho

Got 11 and 11 so far this season Tho 3Gs are in Int Friendlies. The assists interest me. And he plays ib numerous positions

Done OK this year tho.

I know we haven't been linked with him - I'm just wondering why not? Should be worth a looksee!

Me too mate! You woulda thunk that after the 2 last week this might be the time to get him at his best time to score for us. He has 900 minutes less and 19 games less than Willian but scored 9 goals. I know he doesn't take his chances but I do think his option is better than a Eden false 9

You are preaching to the converted mate! I'm for us having a whip round to buy his flight! Its very sad we have not sold him on the great chances we have had to do it.

Ohhhhhhh ....... LOL Think we have! Without the cashing in! Just wonder IF we might get another till Pully comes in the summer as it would be nice! Or we use CHO more! Or we put Eden back on LW and Pedro either ST or RW and RLC in the other position whether its ST or RW

He is so inconsistent tho. OK He wasn't useless and had usual good spots but he had his usual mediocre to good to missing a easy goal to scoring a cracker to missing another good chance back to medium. He just cn't seem to have a game where he stays at one level or able to go into a higher gear like Pedro does. Was a good goal tho. I see him here till he retires! Why wasn't Conte tougher on him and just sold him? Or we seem so intent on keeping him? I'm at a loss.

TBH we shouldn't give a fuck right now whether the poor lamb LIKES playing there or not. He should be doing his best no matter where he is played. He had a mediocre game today apart from the assist. Tho we wasn't completely useless today it was the 3rd from the bottom team we played so tell me was it the game we should have been watching? Willian goes from mediocre to missing a great chance after they scored to a great goal to missing another chance from that Luiz ball back to mediocre! Thats the story of Willian in a nutshell lately. Nut sadly I cant see him being anywhere but here till his contract runs out and then if it was renewed Id swallow pills! Alonso ------- WHY?? Pedro - Amazing the little butchers dog at 31 is our most dynamic attacking player and clear MOTM for me Kovacic - aleays looking for Willian and doing some nice flicks but sadly neither him or Jorgi was dynamic enough tho that Jorgi to Willian pass should have neen put away. Luiz/Rudi offered a ususl solid performance. Luiz gives us much more offensively than defending and his long passes are very useful. Once we have a proper striker it should help us a lot. CHO - I can't see the song we sang him doing anything to change his mind

Hard enough to get us to do one deal let alone complicated stuff like this! I know they have different charecteristics and strengths but I've seen a lot of comments in various sites etc saying that Paredes would be their 1st choice if they had the option. But as we are APPARENTLY wanting a replacement for Cescy I would have thought from everything Ive seen and read that Barella was more in that vein tho Paredes would be more than capable I think. What also really rattles my chain is that we bought Pully which I think is a great buy and a good move forward considering our history. And we are seemingly very serious about looking at Barella. Both great,skilled very young players with sacks of 'potential' So tell me why the fuck are we not seriously linked with the likes of Piatek,Jovic,Haller,Werner? Or even my old want Talisca instead of Higs? I have always leaned more towards the more complete high class EXPENSIVE players over yoof but they are all highly prized and very much difficult for us to attract but thru continual checking out all of Mz @Vesper posts about these players who I was previously unaware of shes got me thinking in different ways now. Just like a few different chats on here with different peeps. I still think the proper balance between youth and high class complete is necessary but I now am much more open minded on CERTAIN younger players.

My thoughts exactly

Problem comes when the board and manager disagree on the quality of said player and he spends his time on his arse warming the bench. There needs to be a neeting of minds!

Off to watch it down the boozer. Very quiet watching a game on your own at home. Least it will be with others shouting at the telly! Lets hope the lads are feeling some pride in the badge and show up meaning business.

I'm worried that this will probably be the final result - no player included!v

You dream just as big as me mate!

I do really understand where you are coming from mate and to an extent I agree akso. I do think we could get better for £80. Isco doesn't offer us the goals/assists that others can cheaper But IF we are going to sell to RM I dont see them paying us the price we put on him, as they would just wait and see. But IF they want to throw Isco in with the deal I do think it would be one of our best ways to do the transaction. Edens numbers are better than both Iscos and Asensios so that I see as the reason RM are looking at him

Chelsea have joined the race to sign Paris Saint-Germain midfielder Adrien Rabiot as they seek a replacement for Cesc Fabregas https://www.whoscored.com/News/KIKD6SWbZU2315v7nxSChw/Show/Chelsea-make-enquiry-for-Barcelona-target

Be one or t'other mate I'm just pissed we have no solid striker leads apart from Higs and Wilson

So you don't think we would by someone to replace Eden when we sell him? CHO would be on the bench no matter what/ His main hope is to be a better starter than Pully. Or get more and more chances and make the most of them. IF he had the confidence,faith and wanted to be in the 1st team enough then he would stay. I just don;t see it ho. If he wants out we either sell him now or it gets messy and come the simmer it will be less money.ot

I do hope he has but not knowing we bought Pully makes me feel dubious buddy. But I dont expect much more out of our board TBH. I remember when Mou came back and there was the reports of the details in his contract stating he would have no powers what so ever in players coming or going.. We might as well castrate all managers, tie their hands behind them and change their title o coach. I would dearly love if we had a system where the scouts,DOF,manager had regular ,meetings and they all got on the same page to choose who,where,why we want new lads. I dont see it happening any time soon tho

Agree Sadly I think that Eden slows us down at times, Peeps will agree or not but he does do some same moves at times. I would dearly love him to be more direct. Like when he has it in his mind that he is going to get to the goal The Eden that came out Vs Gooners and the goal Vs Victimpool, I would just like him to get some grit. Even if it didn't always come off. I know he gets man marked and double marked but hes used to that. He also needs support up there with him as that cant be easy for him. But I do think if he had a couple of different lads with him he could do so much more. Its awful having to piclkk a player purely cause he is HG RLC has had so many chances to prove himself but on;y done it a very few times. We give him too much credit as hhe is from the academy and we over hyped him far too early. I had high hopes but always considered him gangley and looked awkward like Bambi on ice. Nut hes a big strong guy with a bit of pace and skill now n then. He hust doesn't keep his form. Hes not some kid any more hes almost 23..
