Tuchel?

But jokes aside, if thats really true and he is really for sale, it makes me wonder why no other, bigger clubs are going in for him. A lot of clubs are looking for midfielders atm. Barca is looking for midfielders, PSG is looking for midfielders, Bayern, Liverpool, Arsenal, even United. But none of them seems to be interested. I said earlier that I find him a bit overrated, so maybe thats the consensus among these clubs.

Saudis probably offer their officials some "extras" 🤑

A lot of players always tell us that 90% of twitter gossips are totally bs. In the end we should evaluate transfer activities by done deals, not rumours.

Its funny how none of the people, who made this deal, are here anymore but still u can see the aftermath of this disaster. Its like an earthquake were people still suffer after years it happened.

Yes, Poch is the only reason why I wouldnt sell them instantly, in a hope that he can do some magic. The only condition being that we have enough money to buy a good GK, 1 or even 2 good midfielders and a clinical number 9. If we need to sell them to get the money for these players then I would sell without a doubt. But for me, Mount and Havertz are no starters. If we can afford to have them on the bench in the hope they improve under Poch, so be it, if not, get rid of them.

Good point. But to be honest, it doesnt take much to perform better than Havertz and Mount did last season. The question is: can these players improve to a certain point where its acceptable for a club like Chelsea? I still think that Havertz isnt built for the PL and would shine in La Liga e.g. but in the end its just an opinion. Fact is that Havertz has not lived up to the expectations for 3 years now. In my opinion it is worth the gamble to sell him and bring someone new in, at this point we know what we can expect from Havertz, and thats not a lot unfortunately. And about Mount: it seems he wants to leave, maybe his head is gone and he needs a fresh start elsewhere to perform. A lot of it is psychology. No point in keeping a player that has his head elsewhere.

I dont care about other clubs, the question is: will these players become good at Chelsea. Sometimes things just dont fit anymore. In my eyes its wrong to limit ourselfs in a vague hope that things might become better in the future when we could improve with other players, only because they MIGHT improve our rivals. Because in the end, our rivals will find other players elsewhere to improve themselfs anyway. So we cant stop them from improving themselfs. We should only look at ourselfs and think about what is best for the team. Do we want to have Mount or Havertz in our lineup or not.

So we should keep Mount, Havertz, Gallagher and co. because they MIGHT become good in the future, meaning we cant buy any new players only because there is interest from other clubs? We could do that yea, but I dont wanna hear any Havertz bashing next season when he misses another sitter or loses the ball every time he receives it.

Eriksen key for what? His stats are not really good. 1 goal, 8 assists (thats not bad), but lousy defensive stats, average passing stats, kinda bad performance ratings throughout the season. Philipps yes ofc, but Pep wasting 50m on a bench player doesnt seem so terrific, everyone could do that with that money, Pep clearly didnt make him any better. So the fact that he wants Kova doesnt mean Kova will shine under Pep. What I want to say: only because some other coaches want our struggling players like Mount or Gallagher doesnt make them superstars out of a sudden. They are still limited.

Doesnt automatically mean these are great players or that they will shine there. Just look at what midfielders Pep, Arteta and Ten Hag bought last year. Pep: Kelvin Philipps for 50 million - huge flop, waste of money Arteta: Jorginho - well yea, it went downwards after that buy Ten Hag: Eriksen, Sabitzer - not really great deals

Nonetheless - Barella is a bit overrated if u ask me:

Yes sure, and United is pushing for a 40m deal for Mount as we heard earlier today. Doesnt mean its accepted.

As if that will happen 😂

I wonder if there will be Saudi club coming in for Ziyech at some point. Would be a perfect match in my eyes.

Agree. Would still do the Modric-Spurs move and let him move to Real for a lot less than 75m.

Well, selling Jorginho to Arsenal turned out to be great 😂

Oh come on man. How many transfer windows have u seen in your life? These talks of "club xy wants to xxx" or "coach xy is happy with xxxx" is nothing else than PR talk for negotiations at this stage, perfectly placed by clubs and agents. Nothing should get taken too seriously in the first few weeks of the silly season

100 million for staying in hospital, great job N'Golo

He really loves them Italian girls.

And we have Mudryk.

I still remember the outrage here last summer when there were rumours we might sign him 😂 Best choice of his life to stay at City.

Hard times for people who freak out because we dont get linked with Caicedo 15 times a day by 3rd tier twitter sources.

No wonder this club goes down with this kind of fanbase. Spoilt brats everywhere 🤢

Well we have done 2 signings already for this window: Melo and Nkunku.
