Even the guys at ESPNFC realize what a joke we are http://espnfc.com/video/espnfc/video?id=2940994

Besides Juventus getting Cuadrado again for a loan they gotten Witsel for a really cheap price.....

We are a bunch of fools. We gave them Cuadrado as a loan last year and with that they didn't see enough to buy but get another loan..... They have a lot of money but they can't buy our player just loan again, and we of course cave in like idiots.

Because its the Fiorentina fans that are saying we are getting rob..... http://www.violanation.com/fiorentina-transfer-rumors-news-reports/2016/8/29/12685468/chelsea-want-to-pay-a-lot-of-money-for-marcos-alonso

Why because we are frustrated the we are left with the same crap from last season? Most people can write of a bad season from the club and board. But to go do the same mistake back to back it's absurdity. Especially when we knew from last season we was bad in defense and till the last day nothing has been done..... Not to mention that if you want to go the route of youth then it's find and dandy just as long as your taking time on them. But instead we send them away. So it's more like ridiculous frustration for something that was weak from last season and nothing was done in one year to rectify that mistake. And here at the end of the day we are scrambling for solving the issue when we couldn't have done it months ago.

We got lucky with Kante that no big team was after him otherwise it would have been much worse... Anyhow this is good news if they reject our bids.

What a beautiful joke this board is. First Alonso and now this guy. I really dislike the people running the club right now. And I will be more mad if they fired Conte because he can't make it work with crap they buy him.

All you need to do is read what the fiorentina fans are saying. We are being rob and just getting another baba who we just send out on loan.....

but paying €25 million for him seems like a Bebe-level exercise in absurdity.

Just sell us James and be done with it. But I'm sure if they sell us there will be reports that they have an agreement for hazard when in fact they don't. But that's how transfer Rumours work. ?

We always beat Arsenal so that is a no brainer. The first big game is against Liverpool and we shall see what these guys are capable of.

I don't think he will get burned out this season since we play less games thus more time to rest. What I do like it's that he's taking shot from outside. Not many players do this now a days and taking shots from outside is a beautiful thing to see.

I was hoping for a loan, that would have been amazing business. But I guess if Conte likes him then that's a start. I remember when we bought Azpi he came out of nowhere, was an AVB scout. I remember when AVB came he had some decent targets....at least I hope that was him. And Azpi was one of his list. Here hoping this turns out to be the same.

So what's the deal? Did he signed a new contract?

I don't think we will get players that are Conte priority this late in the transfer window. We will just get left over.

Chelsea vs Liverpool is the first real test for Conte and the team. We shall see how things progress from now till then.

Kante and Naiongolan would have been awesome. I see what Conte is trying to do. Let's hope the board are not incompetent in the future.

I'm no longer watching this match, it's so boring for me. Reminds me of Chelsea of last season with Mourinho. That being said I still expect United to win, but best waste my time watching a movie then this boring match.

Not that bad, Hazard was on fire. When he ain't on fire we struggle too much.....

I think the difference is Hazard. Same lineup last year but Hazard never showed up back then.

Well I wrote this on the Ivan thread and it's the case here: If he is so bad then the younger players must be even worse as they can't get ahead of him. Or its like I been saying, the clubs wants youth but continually get managers that are not good for this.....

Same line up as Mourinho and Hiddink. What was the point of the sacking if we are doing the same thing? Same line up got us 10th place. With Kante in it as long as he stays fit we should get 6th.

I much prefer loan then buy. That would be a great business me think.

I doubt that. If the managers doesn't like the player he won't play. Look at what happen with Felipe. This is why it's better to just get the target of the manager or get nothing. It's a waste to the player and club getting unnecessary buys.
