You guys were saying these awful pessimistic things about Kellyman too, and he is about to have his breakthrough year! 

Fucking hell @Vesper I started watching that post when we won the 2012 CL, I have just finished it now

Acheampong is one of our most composed players already,players develop at different speeds but he's been ready for an extended role for a while.for me the biggest decisìon Marseca has is where should he be a primary starter. But i'd certainly put him in our "untouchable" group of players.

Why are they briefs? At what point are people going to stop listening to everything from twitter like it’s gospel truth. More likely these twitter lying bastards have realised Chelsea fans are mostly dumb cunts who believe anything that is written (click bait) and the fans are the fish that keep on biting 

Actually think Strasbourg will be a great loan for him, he'll be a starter most likely and it's a great spot to adapt to Europe. Come here and he'll get stuff all minutes.

I just don't think its the panic stations everyone is going on about. 
People are praising PSG, but they signed all their current great talent at under 25... We have been trending upwards. 
Our players are going to be a year older, more experienced, resilient, and in tune with the manager and his method of playing. 
People are acting as if we were world beaters the last 10 years. We've won 1 PL title in the last 10 years. Our "success" is a bit of a mask when we had an extraordinary and unexpected CL run where we happened to hit our stride, and clearly built a cup side, but one not capable of winning the league (ala early 2000s Liverpool). 
If you zoom out and look at things for what they are - this last season results wise was one of our best in the last 10 years aside from the PL winning season, and CL winning season. We're in top 4, CL, and won a trophy. 
We are the youngest team in the league (history actually). Have some of the most promising players in Cole, Caicedo, Lavia, Enzo, Santos and Estevao in our team - who will continue to grow, be a staple/core of the team, and the average age between them is under 23 years old... We have RJ who can hopefully work his way back and is only 25. We have the likes of Colwill who has been hot and cold but is 22. 
I'm personally excited for the likes of Essugo, who is young and strong as a bull. I've heard nothing but great things about Quenda who will be joining us next season too. 
People are yearning for this return to glory, but it was masked well in the last 10 years under Roman. It wasn't as consistent or glory filled as we pretend. We had patches where we made it work. Both of our CL wins happened and were shocks to most of us. We didn't win while we were dominant, we won because we hit stride and it masked the faults of the club that were plain and obvious. 
Now we go into next season with more experience and a year older, know how to win a major final, and they showed when it gets tough they know how to get results with the last stretch. That is big. Yes I wasn't happy with the play since Xmas, but they dug deep and won. That is important. Is there things I'd like to be done better? Yes, clearly defensive and GK signings have been god awful, but I'm sure it is a point of making it better. Maignan would have been nice, but is it far and away the surefire thing we think it is? Maybe not - and glad they approached with caution considering how poor they've been spending money on keepers. 

Yeah we've got until the 1st of September to make signings and sell players. Some need to relax.

16 year old? Don't care!
Wonderkid? Don’t care!
Brazillian? Don’t Care!
Wowed by ‘The Project’? Don’t Care!
Blue Co selling up? Care! 

😡Chelsea so far have leveraged Chalobah in a swap deal for Guehi. A lot of hardball as we have threat of recalling him. Palace value Chalobah at ~£20m & Guehi £60/65m, which Chelsea believe is far off.
💙Chelsea desperate to sell Disasi.
💰Chelsea have been offered Loic Bade at Sevilla, but no interest thus far. Acheampong seen as a long-term CB option.
💪Chelsea have scouted Wilfred Singo and Joel Ordonez. There will of course be other names.
🤔GKs are being looked at for the summer. Anatoliy Trubin is liked and has been for a while.
🧨Chelsea are 'not counting' on Mudryk for next season.
💶Bynoe-Gittens is liked a lot. Reports of interest in Yeremay Hernandez are true and Chelsea also really like Malick Fofana
😍💪Maresca wants to look at Kiano Dyer in the summer as someone who potentially integrates into the squad next season. I'm told Maresca really likes him.
He’s been put on a strength and conditioning program to get him ready for next season.
👀✍️but we are looking at strikers. The report a month or so ago about interest in Stefanos Tzimas is true. Chelsea really like him. Told Liverpool also big fans and currently slightly ahead.
🙌Sesko, Delap and Samu other names told of interest.
✍️On a LB yes, I'm just trying to get further clarification, but I'm told to really look out for Jorrel Hato.
