Strike

Did not create anything The ambition should be challenging for the league and this group is far from it

Just block Jackson loan

Yup nowhere near a title challenge. We have a deceivingly deep squad but the first XI is not strong

Second half was better but can't take too many positives from today because we were thoroughly outplayed and were only able to get some control after being gifted a healthy lead. Won't happen in most games

Old habits from Sanchez. Have to say he's cleaned up his game but there is still the odd moment

Neto is done. Running into traffic for a while now

There were couple of options Santos for Delap and Enzo at 10 Or Gittens for Delap too. Maresca seems to favour George up front - tried that without success vs ManU at home last season too

That new set piece coach is earning his salary

I don’t care about the result but can Maresca fix this performance in the 2nd half ? We are somehow level

Yeah. Think we need to manage Caicedo and bring in Santos or Essugo

Can we stop the Jackson transfer now ?

Wow a second reprieve after Palace

Don’t have the money for Simons. Simple as that

Has interesting attributes and he has stood out when playing for Leicester. But absolutely zero evidence he's Chelsea ready - even for a squad role.

Keeping Jackson is a far better option than having Buonanotte. Felix/Nkunku played Conference League. We will now have tough games every 3 days for long stretches in the season.

More evidence these owners are not a serious operation. Frustrating when we got 7/8 top quality players in the starting XI but have now wasted years without rounding off a strong core

They have a strong first choice XI to be able to do that.

Should keep Jackson in that case as backup striker and use JP as attacking mid. He is good in that role too

Actually just keeping JP as 10 and Jackson as the second striker is the best option right now

Villa interest in Paqueta is intriguing Hopefully Jackson and Paqueta will mean they let Rogers leave

Actually think Arsenal are the team to beat this year.

Wow. Close to Delap+Pedro outlay We have navigated the striker market to a close to ideal outcome imo. Two Premier League ready strikers bought in

Think the club did everything in their power to sign Huijsen and would have done if it was anyone but Real Madrid at the table Frustrating that a potentially 10/10 summer is affected by our winger signings
