Fernando

Same was said of RLC and Tomori. He has done good, but I'm cautiously optimistic

I was skeptical about Tuchel when we got him and he turned out to be awesome. Let's hope we get something similar.

The plan now will be to get the ball to Lukaku, although he is not worried about personal glory. “It’s not about records. It’s about winning trophies. I’ve realised how different people’s attitude is towards you when you win something. In conversations I had with Didier Drogba or John Terry or Antonio Conte, the respect I have is different when you start winning. “That was something I really wanted. I wanted to win so bad. I went to Inter and then we did. That’s the only thing that matters to me – winning. Scoring goals, that’s beautiful. I know I am in a position where I can score a lot of goals. But winning trophies, that sets you apart.” https://www.theguardian.com/football/2021/aug/19/romelu-lukaku-Chelsea-thomas-tuchel-interview Man won one trophy and now is hungry for more. Good he will be fired up to continue to win. Just what we needed.

Euphoria but the in the long rung no one cares, what matters is stats. 100 years from now, people will see the records of this and that. That is what matters in the long run.

Let's see if we can break the record of Mourinho. Long season but if we do like last season it can be done. And with Lukaku firing teams might be more scare of attacking?

Winning a major title will do that to you. Well there's 2 options. You win and you get satisfied and go into decline. Or 2 you get hungry for more.

I want to sell but to deal with Spurs......

I wonder if Timo and Lukaku will turn into a good partnership ala Hasselbaink and Andre Flo.

So was this a board signing or a Tuchel signing?

Like most I don't like this transfer. Blow all this money on him but whatever he is here and has my support. Help is win tittles Rom.

Not excited about this transfer. Might go the route of morata, kepa and torres.

I'm willing to bet money that if Villa sell Grealish they will buy Tammy. He probably will be bought for 35 million with 5 millions with add ons.

I actually think if city get grealish then villa will easily buy Tammy for 40.

But will they receive some money as well for being part of the super league? Because then that will be double dipping.

For real? So they are still in that, will they get money for still being there?

So any word what will happen with Juventus, Real Madrid and Barcelona? Are they going to get away with still being in the super league?

Would have been awesome Leeds because of Bielsa. Madman often help gets player an up level.

Yah that is good business.

Kounde is a good buy at this time. He is young and is a good passer. We have not have a good ball CB since David Luiz. If he can defend a bit better then David Luiz then worth it. If not sell him since he is young. I remember Ashley Cole was small as well and that didn't stop us from winning things. After Kounde I assume the CM will be a big player, like Rice. I wonder if SMS is still good?

What we paid for Chillwell would do. between 50 and 45, especially if we are giving them a player. Otherwise he will stay there another season.

Super sub. Might not be as good, but maybe can squeeze some super sub performance ala Giroud?

I think it would be a good sell. I think he will go down the route of Wellbeck.

Lampard wanted Rice, and all the target he was aiming for have come good. So I trust Lampard in that. Not as good as manager but good at spotting talent. I mean if it wasn't for Lampard we wouldn't have Mount. If Lampard, the club and now Tuchel are on board with Rice then I'm happy with that.

Since Barcelona are in a bad financial situation, are there any players we can get from there? Are we seriously considering Griezmann?

Hearing that, then the obvious conclusion is that we are selling players to raise money to buy him. Hence why we just sold Guehi, and soon more to follow.
