Strike

Even last week they didn't really do all that much vs Wolves. But they won and are winning again

Seeing the lack of options - at least bring him in for cheap to rotate with Havertz? We are all alive after Torres

Stopgap central striker role - Given that club has him as one of Aubameyang's backups

Frank and Stevie G are the two of the worst managers in this league

Terrible source and none of the reliable ones mentioning it yet

Contract expires 2023 for Zaha. Best shot among the three

Not an air-tight source.

I am glad United are doing this now. Takes a lot of the focus away from the 70m Fofana fee this week

Better be the most thorough medical the club has done

Don't know if you have seen his interviews but he definitely has a different vibe than the average American sports owner that you are stereotyping him as. It seems like we will be run like Liverpool but with more money.

Wonder why the club is not making a bid for Zaha? He was mentioned in the Telegraph report yesterday as one of the targets. He can play CF and has better workhorse traits that Tuchel loves in a forward. Barca are not even taking Alonso in the Aubameyang deal

Just some 32 year old backup keeper. I think they are going to sell - They were unable to bid for Ademola Lookman because of lack of funds Rodgers' latest quotes indicates a sale too. Possible this is stalling till the weekend game/when they sort a replacement

Callum out for Gordon does not make any sense.

Kovacic back in training

Telegraph reporting the 60m (with add-ons) bid. Madness - for an unproven player

This level of entitlement is problematic. Chelsea were and still are very far off in the league. Chelsea has finished around 15-30 points behind City/Liverpool for the last five seasons with the exception of Liverpool's injury crisis year. Of course Tuchel is not above scrutiny but this idea that he should be sacked 3 games into his 2nd full season because he has not caught up with a generational Liverpool/City side (accumulating 90+ points) is absurd. Liverpool and City are not envious of the talent at Chelsea apart from James and a fit Kante. They have comfortably better players because they have spent years shaping that squad, signing players who fit the manager's mould. Liverpool and their process with Klopp is a great example - they finished 8th, 4th and 4th under him but the fans were not calling for his head through this. They picked the market really well and built the team over 2-3 years which became wildly successful.

Looking like Leicester will drag this out till the game against them and give up Fofana before the window closes.

Athletic's Leicester reporter now saying this could happen

Very convenient to say the targets are mid-table by picking 3-4 who weren't even signed. Everybody is a genius in hindsight

The same tactic won the CL by barely breaking a sweat at any point in the competition. People forget how hard it is do this. He inherited a squad that's not suited to a pressing game - and quickly worked out a way to make it effective. The incomings last summer were Lukaku and Saul - two of the worst signings. Some blame on Tuchel here but we know he wanted Hakimi and the board had a big say in those transfers. Still don't see you suggesting better players that the club should have targeted. There were some quality players targeted by the club this summer - The ones you consider the definition of mid-table have not been signed either. Who should the club be targeting you think?
