Worst run club in the world. They lost Messi, Suarez and Griezmann for like 10m... They may get 40m for Griezmann next summer but they payed 120m for him.
Arthur-Pjanic swap? WTF? And never used Pjanic. And selling Suarez only for him to bring title to Atletico and now getting also old striker in Aguero?
From first group only Ampadu left.
From second only Ballo.
Majority of 2nd group will play for development squad so no problem there. Anjorin is on a way to Russia.
Sarr is also close but RLC, Barkley, Baker and Musonda will stay it seems. After tonight they can go to Russia or Turkey.
I am not expecting it anytime soon but we now have really interesting options to play 3 MFs.
Would love to try 4312
Kante Jorginho Saul
Ziyech/Havertz
Lukaku Werner/Havertz
Nice. But problem is we have also 5th and 6th midfielder in RLC and Barkley. Big salaries as well. Don't see any rumors about them. They should not be allowed to train with first team.
About Kounde of course we are not paying clause when we didn't even wanted to pay 65m which is fair price.
And I am not worried either because we have best defense in the world.
Even if last season under TT is anything to go by can you really say Chilwell is number one and Alonso number two?
They pretty much shared minutes in PL. Alonso started first 4 of 6 games in PL under TT. And Alonso played in great wins against Everton and City (scored winner). Played 180mins against Atletico as well.
We did not suffer defensively at all because of him. After Alonso scored winner against City he was benched last 3 PL games and we lost 2.
I am sure TT analyzed all this during summer and maybe he found some other conclusions. For this formation and this specific role LWB I am not sure there is a better player in the world than MA!
Is that from Transfermarkt? Because they did not count Guehi deal for some reason. On wiki Chelsea 21/22 season it is around 45m pounds profit. And many loan players fees are not listed. Now Anjorin will make it over 50m.
Just read last 10 pages posted today but nothing happened. Just Drinkwater and that is a strange move considering Reading Festival just ended...
At least we did not extend him so just 10 more months Chelsea player.
TT said just the other day that we absolutely have squad to fight at highest level so whatever happens tomorrow I am not losing my mind because it would be just a cosmetic change.
Kounde is more for the future and Saul will get serious minutes only if we have a lot of problems with injuries.
What worries me more is that I see no rumors for Barkley and RLC and Ampadu but they are all still here.
It is not. But in some countries it is open a little bit longer. Turkey and Russia for example around week longer so Anjorin and some others can go there. Baker and Drinkwater already played in Turkey.
