Its hard to go worse than adidas in terms of advertising Chelsea, but Nike just did it. What a garbage reveal and 2d looks like heroin addict... At least the kit is realy realy nice. Just wondering why didnt they release 3rd kit too?

Or Azpi on RWB and Rudi next to Luiz and Cahill?

Ancelotti said they wont be paying crazy money for him, so it wont be bayern probably.

Looks like everybody is in a hurry for toilet lol.

He said he already knows where he is going to play, but he cant tell yet. Lol another one waiting for our nike reveal

Agree, but whenever I saw him, he was miles ahead of Manolas in ball control. Thats why he can also play RB if realy necessary. That said, he needs to improve his awarness, but his physical ability; agility, strenght and speed could make him perfect CB one day if he stays injury free.

He is decently dynamic which is most important phyisical thing in football next to technique. Matic and Cesc is slow, immobile. Baka and Cesc already looks much better. Then there is Kante.

Sandro is gonna be Chelsea player, surely.

Call me crazy, but Im optimistic we will sign Sandro, Bakayoko, Caballero, Lukaku?, Alves at the least. Maybe even CB, another striker if Bats goes, RW and CM. Considering all the sales and need to have more squad depth, that isnt crazy at all.

Im just curious why didnt City announce the deal already. If he is joining City that is. Juve said a while ago that he is leaving definately, I would expect someone to announce him by now. Unless they are waiting for kit reveal

If Baka was, as some think extremely limited player; Monaco would never score the amount of goals they did. Mendy, Lemar, Silva, Fabinho, Baka were the main reason why this team performed so well. The only problem I can see with our team is Kante and Baka are not exactly players who can dictate the tempo and playmake. We will need to compensate that with quality wingbacks, Hazard and if required Cesc. To become complete, all our team will need then is player like Lampard. Anything close to that, I would spend 100m+ if necessary. That should be our priority next summer.

Better than some people think. Maybe not world class, but good on the ball and very strong and dynamic. Under Conte, he could flourish. Better than Manolas to me for sure.

Cherries are probably my favourite PL side along Soton now, behind Chelsea obviously. Begovic, Ake, Defoe, King, they realy have nice team.

If the likes of Southampton refuse offers like 60m for van Dijk, PL is gonna get alot tougher.

I dont know much about Vitolo, but I saw him few times when he was making waves and got in spanish squad. Not sure what to think about him, but IMO he would be a quantity buy rather than extra quality. 40m is alot of dope and we should simply target better players if we want to improve that RW. Im perfectly fine with Pedro for now, but if we have to go for someone to add competition and potential top quality, maybe replace Eden when he is injured or needs to rest etc, I would go for either Lemar or Bernardeschi. Two wonderful players, young, hard workers and effcient. Both are lefties, but can play on either wing.

Im telling you guys, chill and wait for club to announce the signings. Im sure most of the main ones are more or less done.

When we lost to them in last game, Fellaini looked like Messi compared to Matic...

Im pretty sure the deal is already wrapped up. Just needs to be announced officialy.

I only read Fabinho prefers playing on RB and Utd would play him there.

Alves seems to be joining City, I would love to see Vrsaljko from Atletico to compete for our RB/RWB spot, but with atleti ban, its impossible.

He had brilliant season 2015/16 and equaly good first half this season until his injury which kept him out for long time. Its not like he had good half of season and then droppped in form. Going by 1v1 duels, aerial duels and number of mistakes or how safe they play, Dijk is only behind Azpi and Alderweireld. Indeed Verthongen realy stepped up this season, he was better than Alderweireld in past months. Luiz has protection from Azpi and Cahill and althrough he has been realy good this season, he made some mistakes and wasnt realy that good when we played with 4 at back. He is amazing character, leader and fantastic on ball, but still has to convince me that he is out and out reliable defender. If he has another season like 2016/17, that would be great. Kos is good, but has too many brainfarts for my liking. Mustafi is also good but not better than anyone mentioned above. Bailly could become better than Dijk, but not yet. I always rated Kompany highly, but he has been injured far too much to make any kind of judgement. And all that said, we can buy only Dijk. To me he is fantastic defender, but that price is huge and he has been injured, which always gives some doubt. If it was last summer, I would have absolutely no complain in signing him. Then there is Bonucci, I think there was never an option he will leave or Laporte who is good, young and expensive, and like Dijk not realy proven outside of the league. If Dijk plays here the way he played in 2016, we will have hands down best CB in the league IMO.

Yes but even if they indeed know something about certain deal(s), they publish every possible rumour there is, true or not. Obviously at one point, they will get some of them right. Meanwhile sky or bbc go decide to publish news when rumours are more reliable. Doesnt mean they are 100% reliable, they do get some stories wrong from time to time, but much less than daily mail, mirror,... Generaly I realy hate press of any kind. They spread bullshit daily and blow every story there is. For example the name of article is "This great chelsea star is leaving club and join rivals", click the article and eventualy they explain its Solanke going to pool. And every damn article is like that.

If we actualy sell Matic for 40m and Ake for 20; along with Bertrand for 20, Costa for around 30-40....not to mention Miazga, Piazon etc We will be rolling in cash

We can always get Djilobodji now that sunderland got relegated

I would not sell him to United at any price, unless we use that money to buy another midfielder or RW of the highest quality.
