Really, I do not care about the buy-out close. I just want to see this player with us, if only one year - anything can happen within one year. I am more concerned about our strikers. If we cannot score, whatever the midfield, we are dead.

It would be a very good sign. But, he scored only 1 goal during his 3 years at RM, right? So, we would have to rely on Morata to score?

Let that cunt rot until 31 August

it says a lot

If you want to challenge the facts that the most valuable teams are those that get trophies, look at the evidences instead of repeadtly insulting me: RM: CL. EDF: WC MC: PL That's being said, there might some exemptions but be realistic. Most valuable team won on average. And inded City has a net spend of around 150 every year while we have 50. It is translated on the pitch. Like it or not.

Yes, the richest club with the best team is very much likely to get the trophies in modern football.

Net spend on transfers from City is 2 or 3 times as high as Chelsea, every year. At some point, quality delivers.

what a terrible game. One shot on target... Not sure it will convince Hazard to stay.

City keeps buying best players. They spend every year 2 or 3 times as much as we do on net transfers. It is translated on the pitch.

Market valuesof Man City players is twice as high as our players. We can see on the pitch. Sarri, Zidane or whoever else.

Morata is dreadful. A ghost.

Great. Fantastic!

What a boring game to follow as a Chelsea fan. Not a single shot on target. Not even that.

Fully agree. Giroud and Bats as strikers. Bats is a pure striker; Giroud would be more in assist role to Bats + defensive role. As he did for France during WC. Morata as nr. 3 or sell it.

Odoi is playing very decent. The only one to try scoring. This guy is very talented.

Man City had a net spend on transfers two or three times larger than ours for several years now: around 50 vs 150. Of course, at some point, it is translated into results. Like France at the WC, the most valuable team.

Sarri will take action in that case.

Come on, Sarri has been 2 and a half weeks in charge without our best WC players.

1-0. They are too strong for us.

so many empty seats ..

In Belgian newspapers, it is said that price tag is 200 million Euros (around 178 million pounds) and that Chelsea is prepared to fight to death to keep Hazard with new long-term contract of 335K a week. On the other hand, Chelsea is rumoured to accept 30 million pounds or so RM bid for Courtois but this can only happen after we have found another goal keeper.

There are few transfer talks about Morata. Does it mean is in the plan of Sarri? What do think you guys who are in the know? Thanks!

We have Drinkwater to replace Hazard.

He is too young.

Likely to be a double deal: Courtois and Hazard off to RM for 200. Fantastic players but big-headed. Hazard: 'I know I am the best player of the world cup'.
