Fulham Broadway

Total, including loanees: 56 We have to submit a 25-man squad after the summer transfer window which must have a minimum of eight 'homegrown' players - those of any nationality who have spent three years at any English club academy before turning 21. But a club can also register as many under-21 players as they like on top of that 25-man squad.

Also Gusto is very solid most of the time -which will be needed as James (injury wise) cant be relied on

Ouzo overload or Communist infiltration ? Either way Preston were in Championship last time I looked

We'll see the difference between an organised team and a load of disjointed individuals next Sunday

Hi There is the ticket exchange Ticket exchange | Official Site | Chelsea Football Club (chelseafc.com) but not sure if it is useable for Friendlies. The few that post here only a few go to matches so little chance of swaps here. As far as wearing your shirt, shouldnt present too much of a problem as its a friendly- but if it kicked off you'd be the first to be removed. Enjoy the match !

Think its more nuanced than that. He was by far the most creative when England won the U23 Euros without conceding a single goal, but agree can see limitations with Marescas set up.

Neto's recent injury record gives some cause for concern with two hamstring injuries last season that saw him miss over 100 days of competitive football - he'll have to join the doctors waiting room at Cobham

Back of the Neto !

Creative, takes players on, gets to the byline, decent shot

So thats near enough 200m so far this window - we need to be thick skinned when fans laugh at us when we're 15th in the table at Christmas

Agree with that - apart from Sterling

Good way of looking at it OFAG. Messi has escalators for his 100m car collection into his apartment -thanks to fans. The lure of fame and money is crazy to the point more than 15 000 children are trafficked into Europe every year with false promise of a trial at PL clubs. Modern day slavery to all intents and purposes

We should keep Madueke. Just an opinion, like arseholes, we all have them

Steve Mclaren presser in Jamaica ''Now ere dis, youm bladclaats. Mia tap dia boss man. Wicked''

The difference is Clearlake are just the current custodians of our club. They, and all other clubs are fuck all without fans and they know it.

Hi If youre not going to park in the capital, prob best to get Thameslink train from Carshalton or nearby to Wimbledon then District Line Also info here Getting To Stamford Bridge | Official Site | Chelsea Football Club (chelseafc.com)

Come on Boehly -you might have sacked most of the academy staff, but theres plenty of 16 year old Brazilians we can give 7 year contracts to before loaning out

The football world looks on in astonishment as a club with a rich, colourful history is used as an investment vehicle, a trading platform, by venture capitalist owners. Accountancy wheezes such as selling the two hotels on the forecourt to a different part of the business, and doing similar with the women’s team, resemble acts of desperation rather than visionary commercial nous. A couple of missteps with fans, including increased ticket prices, unpopular corporate schemes such as the Dugout Club and withdrawing subsidies for travelling away fans have met the ire of militant – and well-organised – supporters’ organisations. Success under Roman Abramovich brought comparative serenity, but now long-serving Blues find themselves harking back to their club’s 1970s financial collapse for a spell as fractious.

Osimhen Transfer News is worth a search

Several media saying Osimhen is ''final piece of the Chelsea jigsaw'' Last time i remember them saying that was when we signed Fernando the Wonderhorse

Thats how it used to be - a few domestic pre season games -the most exotic pre season might be against a Scottish team. Main aim of US friendlies is marketing. The US pitches also very dry, something a lot of Euro teams not used to nowadays

Samu will arrive for 35M- he never played once for Madrid first team or even the reserve team. Gallagher is to be thrown out along with Chabloah, Chilwell, Broja, Petrovic - players who were loyal to Chelsea and wanted to stay. While Lukaku and Kepa who treated Chelsea so badly have been pampered with full pay loans and soon to be sold for next to nothing.
