Strike

Club also seems wary of foreign attackers after seeing Ziyech, Werner, Pulisic go bust in the last few years. Signing Sterling means we have Mount, Gallagher, CHO, Sterling and could field an entirely English attack.

That's City's asking price. The numbers quoted by Di Marzio (35m pounds) is a market realistic deal for Sterling.

Yes, he's way more consistent than any attacker we have right now. The only consideration is can he make it work in the black hole that is a Chelsea attack? He thrived in Liverpool and City sides that had a very attacking style and tons of forward players.

Bayern getting Mazraoui, Gravenberch and Mane for 65 million euros is great business

Oh?

We are lucky there is a buyer in the market for him.

Only four games during the cursed November - December !

They want him as backup to replace Mata. Christian would do well to look elsewhere. He proved he can still go at a high level in the league

Not long ago. Club did integrate Courtois after signing him early and loaning him out

Their scouting department would never land on Lukaku and Saul as summer signings. We have to be cautious about looking forward to their downfall even if they lose Mane and Salah. Even in 2020-21 their worst season in Klopp's tenure, they finished above Chelsea.

55m pounds

In this Matt Law story, Sterling is priced at 50-60m pounds. Jesus also priced at 50m pounds. The fee can be lower since both are in the final year of their contracts.

Jesus is on Chelsea’s shortlist along with Bayern Munich’s Robert Lewandowski, RB Leipzig’s Christopher Nkunku, City’s Raheem Sterling and Barcelona’s Ousmane Dembélé, who is available on a free. The club will listen to offers for Timo Werner, Hakim Ziyech and Christian Pulisic.

Mbuyamba. A year left on his contract now.

Don't like the idea of Skriniar in this deal. Better CB options in the market. Bastoni is one of the top left sided centre backs available but then again wasn't on the club's priority list till this week.

Liverpool's response to Haaland. Possible we go into the season with Havertz as the main striker and Liverpool and City have traditional 9s

I agree. Recruitment and tactics are two totally different skillsets. Manager will also have tunnel vision and will generally prioritise immediate gains over long-term building

He and his agent are basically driving themselves out.

He's signing it if it lowers his release clause. Clear he's thinking about an exit

Names Dembele, Nkunku, Sterling in attack. Kounde, De Ligt, Gvardiol in defence. Rice in midfield
