Everyone who follows Chelsea knows that we are pretty good at hiding targets until it is almost done deal. So 99% of all rumors are total BS.

I also got impression over the years that UTD fans are most deluded group in football... Mikel, Robben, Kezman, Hazard, Ziyach, Ballack, Kovacic, Pedro... All players who had chosen us over them...

John Terry on Mourinho: “We won the league and came back pre-season, first day, me and Gary Cahill kept giving the ball away. He stopped the session, we’d signed Cesc Fabregas, Diego Costa, a couple of others. “He said, ‘You two, I’ll go and spend £100m on a couple of other centre-backs if you keep giving the ball away.’ We looked at each other and thought, ‘Oh wow’. So me and Gaz now, first day of pre-season, we’ve gone round started smashing everyone in training. The tempo has gone up, everyone’s kicking lumps out of each other. “After training he came and put his arm round us both and said, ‘That’s why you’ll be starting this season.’ He just knew exactly what he was doing, he was four steps ahead of everyone else.” “He knew when to push your buttons and when not to. “Even small things, you’d be sitting at home and get a text message off him going, ‘Unbelievable today in training you’re my main man, love you captain.’ You’d sit there and go, ‘That’s unbelievable’. “So a really good relationship, but also I was petrified of him, like probably most players was. “You’d go in the next day and you’d get nothing from him at all. He’d walk past you, say nothing and blank you. You’d think you’ve upset him. Did I text something back? You look at your messages and think, ‘No, I’m alright there.’ “After training he’d go, ‘That’s why you’re my captain, you just needed that little push.’” -John Terry; source: Instagram Live via Star "No one was turning against him, he hadn’t lost the dressing room. “It was awkward when Jose came to say his goodbyes. When you see strong characters like Drogba, Lampard and Terry either crying on the floor or certainly welling up…" - Steve Sidwell

Could not agree more with this. Nothing is black and white. For example one of the mistakes we made was Pirlo. Pirlo appears similarly baffled by the way Chelsea conduct their transfer business. Carlo Ancelotti wanted to bring him to Stamford Bridge in 2009, but the club's rules on signing older players scuppered a deal. He insists, however, that he has no regrets about not playing in the Premier League, having also rejected the opportunity to join Manchester City in 2011. 'I had the chance to come (to the Premier League) with (Carlo) Ancelotti to Chelsea and with Manchester City when I went to Juventus,' he says. 'Chelsea said that I was very old - 30 years old! And the other time I preferred to come to Juventus. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-7064089/ANDREA-PIRLO-EXCLUSIVE-Footballs-coolest-man-Chelsea-Cristiano-Ronaldo.html 30 years old Pirlo? Would happily give him 4 or 5 years contract! But we did not. Now we have Giroud and Willian situation. Ofc and we all agree that Willian does not deserve even 2 years contract... But if we do not renew Giroud over we offer him one year and he wants two that would be another mistake by the club. Also at this point I would rather give two or three years contract to someone like Cavani or Cristiano to be our next striker than sign someone like Dembele for +50m...

Garcia Silvero: 'Market will not open July 1' https://www.football-italia.net/152078/garcia-silvero-market-will-not-open-july-1 Poor Lampard more than a year at the club and still would not be able to sign any players.

Icardi may be available. He wants back to Italy but Conte does not want him so they will try to avoid selling him to Juve or Napoli. 60-70m would be a price. Also, since we want someone who can challenge Kepa this guy would be great. But if not loan not sure we would spend a lot of money for second GK.

Just realized our best goalkeepers have the same name... Bonetti, Cech, Borota...

I think he is the option for the club but not priority ofc. We need another winger for sure. Pulisic, CHO, Ziyach. Pedro and Willian are off... We need to see what is going to happen with Jadon. Are we going to activate buy back on Boga? After all of that he can be an option. For free transfer and can play as a striker.

'He blamed me for getting the sack... he said I was a white witch': Unai Emery claimed his EX-GIRLFRIEND was at fault when he lost the Arsenal job as he thought she was BAD LUCK https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-8211881/Unai-Emery-claimed-EX-GIRLFRIEND-fault-lost-Arsenal-job.html LOOOOOL

Looks like this is true. I am in love with our 3rd kit this season. Can we keep it for a while? With different sponsor ofc. Also away kit:

If season continues it is not good for us because Pogba, Rashford, Son, Kane will be back and that was our huge advantage. I know we also had a lot of injuries but still we look better without Kante and we have a lot of players on similar level. These 4 are 50% of their clubs.

Imagine getting Sancho for free

Did these mistakes lead to the goals? If we look that way Zouma, Chris and Azpi costed us the most. How many goals we conceded because of them? I blame Emerson for example for all three goals we conceded against Arsenal. Also we had 42 games this season and Rudiger played just 1575 minutes (17.5 games or 40%). He also came back from serious injury so he deserves the benefit of the doubt at least this season. Also the only leader of our CBs.

I think he will stay in Dortmund one more season. And in summer 2021 with one year left on contract should be much cheaper.

Not sure why many think Crespo was flop here? He was very good with some great goals. In the PL he had 20 goals in just 2817 minutes which is like 31 games. Scoring every 140 minutes. Better stats than Diego Costa who in the PL scored on every 145. Underrated.

Rudiger is our best CB no matter what masses think.

56 days for just 9 rounds?

Manchester United owe £169m on the likes of Harry Maguire and Bruno Fernandes while Bournemouth are on the hook for £77m... how much money does YOUR club still owe on transfers as impending financial crisis looms? https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/sportsnews/article-8204221/How-money-does-club-owe-transfers-impending-financial-crisis-looms.html Wonder how much actually can UTD spend because of this. Look at us on this table. We are in best position. Plus Morata money is coming.
