Pep seems to absolutely love Sterling so I can't imagine he'll just drop him right away for Mahrez even though Mahrez is much better in my opinion.

Please don't post tweets in other languages without translation.

Doesn't really make City scarier in individual matches since they were already terrifying. What this kind of signing gives them is the ability to rotate in attackers without dropping at all in quality. This is what having limitless funds and an ambitious ownership/board gets you.

£60m bench player. City are on another level.

Absolutely ideal scenario - sell to Barca for a stupid fee and sign Bailey as his replacement. Not so ideal scenario but one I'd do - swap with Martial.

The markers have been laid with the last few mega transfers. Neymar, M'bappe, and Coutinho. He's every bit as good (and in my opinion better) than all three of them. If Real Madrid come calling we better demand at least the 150m or whatever Barca paid for Coutinho. We're in the position of strength here with him having 2 years left and them being desperate to appease their fans with big names to replace CR7. Hopefully it doesn't come to that and they target Neymar instead who is more their style. They love flashy, celebrity footballers which Hazard isn't.

Think he had the potential to be the ideal Mourinho no nonsense CB. Doesn't at all fit the mould of a Conte or Sarri defender, though.

Kinda weird how Golovin was basically reported as a done deal a couple of weeks back and there's not really been anything since. Especially now he's out of the WC. Hopefully we've indeed locked him down. Arse just confirmed Torriera who is only recently out of the WC, so it clearly doesn't take long.

I feel like I've seen that exact same tweet, word for word, about 3 times over the past month. 😂

Yeah. Wonder if we'd play two very young ball players in Rugani and Christensen together or if Rüdi will always have to play alongside one of them. For me, Rüdiger is far too good to be benched.

If true, I wonder which of our CB positions he competes for.

Yeah, seems like it. Not too long ago that he was linked to Barca! Now off to Fulham.

Wonder what it was that stopped every big club from signing him. Must have been something, clearly.

Made the mistake of checking what peoplle on Twitter are saying about Jorginho. There are actually people stalking his mothers supposed Instagram account and saw that she followed Chelsea. Time to log off for the night.

A dude named Donkey? Really? 😂

So why the hell won't the club just come out and put an end to all the rumors and say for certain that Conte is staying?

Honestly, he should be the fallback option if we don't get any of the other we're linked with. All of Golovin, Jorginho, and Kovacic should be higher priority. Seri would be a decent player to "settle" for if we miss out on the others.

Sarri will be brought in to replace Emenalo as our director of football. That was the plan all along, lads.

Kante is better on the bal than he's given credit for but he isn't a player who's going to regularly dribble out of tight spaces and carry it more than he has to. He does it every once in a while but only when necessary. I wouldn't say he's "extremely" comfortable on the ball. Good enough or solid I'd say.

Imagine what a nightmare it would be for even the top clubs to go against a midfield 3 of Kante, Jorginho, and Golovin. Three midfielders who will swarm all over you and cover every blade of grass on the entire pitch. And two of the three are also extremely comfortable on the ball and can pick out pinpoint passes. It's a dream midfield. But sadly too good to be true.

That latest announcement. Tell me these motherfuckers aren't trolling now. Knowing that millions of Chelsea fans around the world are waiting on a knife edge for something to happen and they chose now to say they're "delighted to announce" a god damned health sponsor. Not a couple of weeks ago, not a couple of weeks from now, but today when they know everyone is speculating that something may happen. 😂😂😂

We ain't signing fucking Jorginho. Stop doing it to yourselves. Monday cold days.

And if Eden runs his contract all the way down and joins City on a free? I'd like to think Chelsea means enough to him that he wouldn't ever play for another PL side, but you never know.

Not only may recruitment take a major hit if Conte stays, but we may also see Hazard asking to leave. Or worse, we keep him without him signing a new contract and face the scenario in which we sell him for a quarter of his worth when his contract runs down. Could you imagine us almost being forced to sell him to City or United because he's only got a year left on his contract? Basically pull an Alexis or RvP. Fuck me. As for recruitment, what top player is going to sign for us knowing one poor run of results could see Conte sacked? It's not like Conte can personally speak to prospective signings and convince them of the "project" he wants to build because everyone in world football will know that he's only still in his job because we'd have failed to get Sarri. I've said before that the only way Conte can surprise everyone and turn things around is if the club back him with about 4-5 top signings. And I cannot see them doing that.

Over or under 1.5 pictures of Conte smiling at Cobham tomorrow and the club acting as if everything is business as usual? 😂
