Strike

I think we should just keep Veiga around and use Hato/Veiga at LCB instead of signing yet another player for CB when we have 6/7 already for two positions in the XI

Actually think Jackson with two years of experience leading the line at a top 6 PL club will be better than Sesko.

Read a report we need to sell from the players registered for Conference League last season. If Jackson goes for a cool 60m (double the amount we paid for him), I think we can do business again - Xavi and Garnacho to round out the squad

No Jackson for Villa I guess. The market really seems to be closing for Nico

To be fair, the attackers the sporting directors picked out in the last 2 years have been good. Along with signing Palmer, Neto, Jackson, Guiu, and now Delap and Pedro, we were also linked to Duran and Samu who both exploded soon after.

Ben Jacobs says Newcastle could pivot to Jackson as the forward they sign

He was comfortably better than Chalobah in the same team last year

Agree with this. All of the striker market except for Isak look like dice rolls and could easily flop. Going for Delap and Pedro was one of the best possible outcomes we could aim for in this window

Yep, but this keeps happening. Lot of youngsters know Chelsea have great youth facilities but when it comes to signing a professional contract, they look elsewhere - Musiala, Livramento few years ago.

Pretty clear it will be reduced with Gittens Estevao and possibly Garnacho joining He would be an idiot to wait till the season is underway to find himself 6th/7th choice

Not true. Napoli wanted him in January and Villa wanted him in the summer

So you want to overspend on every deal even before teams come in? Daft logic

Garbage owners look like they’re gonna save 10-15 mil euros

Ter Stegen is going to have another surgery. Barca GK shirt is between Garcia and Szczesny

PSG quietly happy to move him on I think

Can't remember the last time this has happened

English clubs need the Saudi league since there's not a lot of clubs in Europe that can afford important EPL players. Bayern seems to be the only one left.

We have an Ornstein bomb on Hato. Reckon we will get that one over the line. Not too worried about the Simons deal since we are stocked in that position

How can they go for Rodrygo AND Isak? Will be insane if that's what they do

Surely we can't advance any closer to him?

Bailed out of one of the bad deals. Lovely

We don’t need every talented player locked up. We need squad players who will accept reduced roles too and carry them out

If this is what it takes to end the Garnacho rumours, I’m all for it
