I get most of your points, but I believe you overlook two important things. The first one is that he is used to winning, for which you can give me countless examples that it counts for nothing. The second one however is that he is a pri*k. He likes to get on the nerves of the opposition. I believe that while we are on transition, building our team and our style, it will be very beneficial to us to have a player like that.

We cant buy our way to the top in one summer. It is not city we are competing with. If Alvarez can be the new Mikel for Chelsea that would be great. We need a decent CDM to give Tuchel options, not to start and dictate every game. A lot of components from our team need to gel a bit before we can decide what to do in January and next summer, so hopefully next season we are competitive

How is Douglas Luiz better? Only thing better is his price. Villa have been hyped so much over the past 3 years and have done absolutely nothing. Alvarez might be playing in the Eredivisie, but he also has games in the CL and he is a champion. The winning mentality should not be overlooked!

50 mil midfielder today is a squad option. Not a guaranteed starter by any stretch. Crazy prem money. Two seasons remain and then the new regulations start to kick in and should make thins a bit better.

I don’t know how true this rumour is, but i would love him to come. For what I have seen he is a bit of c*nt and we need some of these. If we can get rid of lazy ziyech brilliant

Why don’t get florian grillitsch on a free? Just not on crazy wages and 3 year contract?

It closes on Thursday - 11p.m. BST. Aaaand Odoi on loan is sealed. I guess we have something done behind the scenes, otherwise tooo many departures.

We want Nkunku and Gvardiol. We do not want anything from Ajax and based on experience I doubt we will sign anyone from the Eredivisie anytime soon. LOL

This season and the next will more than likely be bad by our standards at least. If we can get a top 4 thanks to worse preforming sides great. If we manage to do something in the cups great, but overall we will be nowhere near man city. It will be Arsenal and Tottenham chance to go for them. If we built wisely we can go hard in 2024. Even with all the money in the world Guardiola needed 2 seasons and Klopp 3-4. We are basically building a completely new squad around James and Mount. No need for panic buys. Trust in Tuchel and support the best team in England. KTBFFH!

Second fiddle? He was younger when he came 29 or 30, but he was one of the first names on the team sheet: 2008/09 - 37 pl app 2009/10 - 33 pl app 2010/11 - 32 pl app And I guess in the modern game age is less of an issue thanks to physical training. Just look at how many examples there are of players over 32 around Europe's best teams.

Why is Gvardiol on the bench?

We look absolutely exhausted and after watching Tottenham next week will be tough if we don’t improve our physical levels. Let’s hope we win this one and avoid any injuries

I get Cucu is fresher than most on the pitch, but he looks miles better. Lets hope he doesn’t have to contest too many high balls lolz PS: what a dreadful match

Based on last seasons formation that is what we have. And the players who may or may not be in the first team:

Add Batsman, Kenedy, Ampadu and Gilmour. A lot of work to do, but it will be a nice meal at the end of the day

Getting relegated won’t be to his best development 😀😀

If Abramovich is a puppet of Putin he should do anything possible to destroy Chelsea and the premier league. Politics has no place in sport and the current situation makes me very very sad.

Can we afford to travel there? LOL This is a joke...

Awful decision. I can not do anything from here, but how are things in London. Aren't fans mad? At the end of the day the sale was ongoing. WTF? Destroying the best club in London?

Too many games… covid…injuries(especially james and chilwell) but wow. Brighton completely outplayed us twice in less than a month. I can’t remember the last game, in which we had consistently good attacks and finishing. If corners weren’t a thing we would have been 6th. We should either win or be entertaining. At the moment we don’t win and are atrocious to watch… If we don’t win a cup or two this season will be the worst since 15-16… Fuuming

Stop being so negative ffs. We are on the rise, we can only get better, we have the beat man for the job in Lamps. He is close to Abramovic - nothing better than that. We can sign better coaches, but we have the best manager. On top of that this December is soo congested. Every game is a coin toss. Not one team is able to put on a run...

Top four is what this season is all about. CL was an adventure. It could have ended a bit better. I sure hope this is the last Arsenal season(last Wenger years) - top 4 scrap and getting humiliated in the cl....

How are we still 4th??? The league is at its lowest. Liverpool are winning the league wtf??? ...

Don’t overreact. They are having one of the best days of their season and we are sooo unlucky. No experience in the squad. When things go to sh*t so do we. 4-5 signings and 2 years and we can be best in Europe.

I didn’t get Tammy sub. Bats was bad, but scored one of the goals of the season. If you want to change things up, put Giroud in for us to have a chance of a cross. 3 pts against watford and Ajax and i will be over the moon. Aaand our midfield is sooo thin. Let’s hope kante, barkley amd rlc will be fit sooner rather than later. KTBFFH!
