I woke up this morning to hear we just sold Ake. So with all this a sales how will we be strong in depth. Every one seems to be amazed at the fact that Chelsea have 60£m from sales but they don't mention that we lost 6 players to get the money that will afford us 1 player. Why didn't we loan Ake for 2yrs like we did Christensen. I read that Christensen might make his loan permanent and van Ginkel as well. I am trying not to panic but even if we get our targets I will fear for the depth of our team.

well real won't hide in their shell as they tap up players like liverpool did because they our europe's champs so UEFA will help them out like they did to remove their transfer ban and atletico still have theirs

http://www.planetfootball.com/viral/logic-chelseas-transfer-policy-11-fringe-players-blues-sold-profit/ Look at all this profit

some how i feel like we are selling to much. It might ruin continuity in the team. we are selling 10's and 20m and we our buying 40m and 50m+ and i can't see how we will add to the squad if for every one signing we make we sell 3-4 player. i just can't add up.(Bamford, Solanke, Cuadrado, Matic*, Traore, Ake*, Atsu, Brown*and more i don't remember atm)

relax bro we get you but look at this. Conte has to work on him and needs time to do so but at chelsea time is not a luxury. would you rather keep 40m+ maitc over 35m+ Bakayoko. @28 its difficult to learn new things but @22 its easier to do so. The bottom line is, it is more economical for Matic to leave for 40m+ @28 and get someone who honestly for me i see as better off than matic since he has proved so with he first champions league performance which the biggest stage to show your worth and Matic has totally do nothing in the 2 he has played in. And the guy is 22.

The only regret for me as a chelsea fan is the sale of de Bruyne and thats all because if we had been calm a bit we would have had a younger fabregas in our squad but the other players we sold apart from them playing the revenge game when we face their teams and some getting to score us or boss us around i their positions ex ryan bertrand( another player i regret a bit about knowing that he is a champions league winner and might end up at Mancity) and maybe Oriol Romeu who would have been a good squad player, the others don't really matter(Salah, Cuadrado & Co). i was angry with Mourihno thou when he sold Schurrle. He would have had a good career if we didn't end it buy selling him to wolfsburg. For 40m+ i mean come on there is no way we are going to want to keep Matic. What i would like to see is chelsea use that 40m to land Naby Keita of RB Leipzig or Kondogbia of Inter. they will good additions to the squad.

i wish we sign fabinho. He is the kind of player we need. Fabinho give flexibility because he plays two positions and he plays them better that what we have. He plays RB very well(better that moses) and at the same time plays CDM well and at the moment better than Matic. That is the player we should chase because with him in the starting line up we could change formations and use other options without making substitutions. That's flexibility

Cant wait to see this. If he comes That left position of our will be the strongest side of the field. Hazard/RLC/Musonda Alex/alonso/baba

Was lukaku that good when we sold him. if he was then we were dumb to sell that cheap

yes i agree with you but who do you blame for not getting the players. You can't blame anyone else than the board. We have a good manager in Conte. He is very smart too. If you ask for something as a manager and you get something else you have to try and manage it. Know when you do that and become a success you would know have the bargaining power to ask for what ever he wants. I dont thinks conte is in for the money, i think he is a manager because he likes the game. It is the board i would blame if he still doesn't get what he wants for the second time and walks away. Someone who is able to say he will walk away even when being offered a 9m pound a year contract is someone you don't play around with. btw conte sending the sms is not a bad move. like i said the guy has chelsea eating from the palm of his hands cause unlike mour who got what he wanted in his first season (essien, drogba, carvalho & co. Players who if were in their prime now, can easily replace anyone today). he used player who to be honest would not have fit into mourinho first team in his first season(alonso, moses, cahill, matic, costa). If he is not giving what he wants i would be happy for him to leave so he can keep his 100% title record and move on but hope he stays. He deserves to asking when shocking everyone last season don't think he will like that pressure again. There is always a time to change so if we have to change our system lets do so with conte. Like Man u who were not know for a spending club are now or like asernal who were an academy team now chasing mbappe even barca now plan to be spending i excess of 60m+. Lets hope we our not left behind. Conte is being smart shaking up the board cause i would rather walk away than sit down and get sacked 3months into the season

City just want to get every attacking player available

yea so is sanchez. still not happening

the truth of the matter is Costa is not that good to command such fees in this situation. I don't know if i am the only one who sees it. Everyone saw how good he can be and how crap he can be, and the crap seems to outweigh the good. Lets take Costa(bayern) for example. Bayern don't want him but they can command not less than 50m euros for him. look at James(madrid), it is fair to say he has no plans in real madrid, but he can command not less than 60m pounds. Another example is Salah. Roma need to sell in order to avoid fair play penalties on 30 june but they are commanding 40m euros for him because he is that good. Now back to costa, every player can have crap periods but some players can't afford such periods or their value drops. Hazard can have a whole crap season and be sold for 80m pounds and i dont think costa can do same. if you where an owner of any big club would you pay 40m+ for costa in this current situation. No. Lets say it was the other way round and that chelsea are going to buy Costa from Atletico would you be happy as a fan if chelsea are going to pay the asking price of 50m when the club want him sold.

No Ox. thats unrealistic. Alves is more realistic than Ox.Even Morata is more realistic

how does tottenham come up with such players. the only one we had got sold and is now in mancity

if chelsea needed someone for fab replacements its eriksen

it is difficult not to agree with you. you never change a winning team applies here. they will never change what won them the ucl and uel

Well for me who isn't living in the uk or England the best i can do is buy the jerseys pay to watch the matches at match centers or at the bar or online and pay for my chelseatv thats the best i can do. I have vowed though that when the new bridge is done I would come watch a game but not anytime soon. Hurts not to see the current one. So yea for me thats what i can do watch every game and buy a jersey and bluff about my team to others even when sometimes things don't go on well for us. I know it is a lot more than that but for the fan base outside of the UK how do you think they support the club. Thats the best most of us can do.

yea me too. it is going to increase their interest in landing hazard

Why is chelsea selling and not buying. http://www.getfootballnewsfrance.com/2017/bertrand-traore-has-given-his-agreement-to-join-lyon/

I support them. I defend them from banters from teams like arsenal and tottenham. I pay to watch them so indirectly my money is part of the TV money they recieve at the end of the season. That what i do

finally people can see that its not costas goals that won us the title. I hate it when people say that as if there were no games where costa never scored in or scored the winning goal. If we had depended on only costa we would be no where not even the 10th we had last 2 seasons. i agree

lets try thomas kalas as well. I just can get that guy out of my head after his match against liverpool. He totally dominated Suarez.

WOW So when will chelsea become a stable club like almost every other club where they know what the f**k is happening. This morning this is the good news i get. http://sportwitness.co.uk/conte-takes-break-holiday-abramovich-transfer-summit-owner-wont-problem/ 12 hours later this is the hea lines everywhere. http://www.teamtalk.com/news/chelsea-eye-tuchel-as-conte-is-prepared-to-quit-report http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/chelsea-boss-antonio-conte-ready-10630863 Not that i am panicing but why can't we have some peace as fans. Look at everyone else calm even when they dont like the manager they at least let him see his contract out but for us its like an earthquake. Every 2 years we have to experience some trembling in the club. I fear the day chelsea run out of suitable managers and start going for the likes of Tony Pulis and co. Jeez am tired. If this guy actually walks away after one year i don't know what else i can do for this club.

YES THATS WHAT CHELSEA NEED. We have hazard pedro and willian and fabregas to score those goals. i am talking about what i liked about costa before and it is those close range tap ins and the 1 top goals but somehow costa seems to have forgotten how and is now trying to score those cheeky goals. For example the goal that won us the title(Bats goal) those are the goals i am talking about. We have to many players at the moment scoring the spectacular we need the guy who will score the 3 tap ins within a match not the guy who score one goal and then is satified. Conte actually begun to piss me off last season because if costa scores you just have to take him of cause to him he has done his job whether we are winning or loosing. so most often than not he becomes a passenger.
