At least there's someone else now that the media will focus on. 🙃

Tuchel: "We wanted to see Baka to know what he was capable of."

Tuchel on getting a top class ST: "With the exit of Olivier Giroud, we could use a player who plays with their back to goal and it means we can add this direct style of play. It's the sort of profile we don't have in the squad that can be useful. But not for any cost and not panic. Whatever happens, we will be competitive and we have trust in our guys. We have young players in the offensive part of the game that we demand improve. We are relaxed and aware of our situation at the same time."

Saw someone mention that we create more chances than Inter and decided to check the stats for some inkling on things. Different league and all but ironically, Inter's xG was higher than ours last season - 74.8 v 64. That Inter xG was also higher than Man City and Liverpool. And all that despite Inter having less shots than us, City and Liverpool.

Seems like there'll be one this weekend...

WHERE IS @Stingray!?

The irony of this football club.

Villarreal not having a good pre-season and there's also this...

Chelsea 1-1 Villarreal PRE/POST-MATCH DISCUSSION, LIVE CHAT AND ANALYSIS 2021/22 UEFA Super Cup 11th August, Wednesday 2021 Windsor Park 20:00 Kick Off (UK time)

JESUS FUCKING CHRIST!

It's a done deal FFS!

You might as well say 30 million considering we've already pocketed close to 50 million (or maybe more) from sales this summer.

Did not see that coming. No Abraham to Villa then...

Yeah, we know Lukaku is coming but not sure what Broja has to do with that. If anything, it's Abraham but we know he'll be gone too.

I don't think so...yet. Tuchel will likely rotate again, especially once we hit September but I go back to the point I made earlier this summer, Tuchel is gonna have a hard time trying to keep everyone happy particularly as we look set to stick with the back 3. And it's also why I suggested that Mount be used deeper in midfield. Yes, I know he hasn't convinced in the pivot and what Tuchel said last season but he could make it work with a tad more time in training now than last season. I mean, if Conte could manage to turn Azpi into a CB in a back 3 and Moses into a half decent WB, then I would like to think someone of Mount's versatility and capability that he might adapt in the deeper role under Tuchel.

Is that based on the assumption that Havertz is gonna start every game...?

If Lukaku doesn't win us the sextuple this season, you're gone!

What can we do to you if you're wrong? 👀

By the way, remember all that argument about the club always do things quietly in the transfer window? 🤣

One thing is for sure, you can bet your arse that there will be racial abuse towards Lukaku whenever something goes wrong.
