Such a class player, and the complete opposite to Costa. Would create a nice dynamic I think if we go with two up front. He can create, and is a clinical finisher too. He'd have a bigger impact than Martial coming into the league IMO. Blue-in-me-Veins 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CurlyHairLikeLuiz 1,625 Posted May 19, 2016 Share Posted May 19, 2016 With our new stadium we're not going to be big spenders anymore, not for a few seasons anyway - therefore we won't spend more than £50m and most of that will be balanced with outgoings. So I've earmarked 2 new signings for what I'm about to write, as well as returning loanees of course. Next season we should be blooding in youth. That Tomori kid impressed me, have to say. Since this season means blooding and rebuilding, Courtois gets the benefit of the doubt, but I'd not be bothered if we replaced him with, say, Fraser Forster. It's an unpopular opinion, but I think Pedro and Willian are very similar players, and one has just greatly appreciated in value - cash in on him. I've put a variety of possible formations, and this means we could see a lot of rotation. 4-3-3 narrow Courtois New RB Zouma Terry Azpili Ake Matic RLC Pedro Costa Hazard Fabregas Could also slot in here - as a false 9 for Costa, or in a slightly more supportive role. However, this relies on the wingers being more direct. Traore could come in for Pedro, for instance. 4-4-2 Diamond Courtois New RB Zouma Terry Baba Fabregas Ake Matic Musonda Hazard Traore Much more ball playing. Technically able players dominate, but it is a less direct team. 3-5-2/3-4-3 Courtois Tomori Cahill Dave Pedro Matic RLC Baba Palmer Costa Fabregas A tad more youthful - still an attacking threat, but gives Hazard's legs a rest. Fabregas is a false 9, as he is for Spain, and cuts in from the left hand side. Finally, 4-2-3-1 Courtois New RB Zouma Terry Azpi Ake RLC Pedro Cesc Hazard Costa A more familiar formation, but with a more dynamic pivot - RLC and Ake. N.B. , if we were to get Nainggolan then RLC may as well leave now. New RB? Clyne, perhaps, or we could instead put Dave at RB (which I personally don't like, but others do) and play a youth like Jay Dasilva there.

Captain Ahmed 528 Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 Primary summer target:Radja Nainggolan Quote Chelsea remain hopeful of signing Radja Nainggolan, despite the midfielder’s public claims that he does not want to leave Roma.Nainggolan is the No 1 target of incoming head coach Antonio Conte and Chelsea have already seen one bid rejected for the 28-year-old. Chelsea will have to up their offer to around £32 million to convince Roma to sell and must also hand Nainggolan a significant pay rise to move to the Premier League.But the Blues believe they can push a deal over the line and have placed negotiations into the hands of director Marina Granovskaia, who has a good track record of making transfers happen.Granovskaia and Chelsea have not been put off by Nainggolan’s declarations that he intends to stay at Roma, believing the player is simply avoiding putting himself in a difficult position with fans of the Italian club. telegraph.co.uk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChelseaFanUK 1,014 Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 I can quite confidently see us pumping millions into this summers transfer window. New manager, overhaul needed, fix the mess of the last 2 windows, get us back into top 4. IF you said to me we will spend £100m, i'd not be surprised Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superblue 6,372 Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 I wouldn't want us to buy any more than 3 players this summer. 4, 5, 6 players could quite easily leave and it would give opportunity for the gaps to be taken by some of the younger players. Remember no European football next season which should mean a fitter, fresher squad with less niggling injuries. We won't need as many players as we've previously used. Hopefully a good season next year and back into the Champions League. Our smaller squad will then need beefing up which will mean one or two additions along with a couple more of the younger players being drafted into the first team. This is a great opportunity to finally start bringing some of them through and I hope Conte is given some chances to be able to do so.

Essien19 1,415 Posted May 20, 2016 Share Posted May 20, 2016 Nah we don't play youth, never will, don't want to spoil the competition. The last month would have been the perfect opportunity.

the wes 7,212 Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 Besiktas midfielder Oguzhan Ozyakup has been encouraged to join Chelsea by his current club’s president, Fikret Orman. “Last season, Lazio made an approach for Oguzhan but I didn’t want him to go there. Lazio are an average side in Italy. Besiktas are bigger than them. If Oguzhan goes to Europe, it should be to a team of the calibre of Chelsea.” (talkSPORT) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Colored Sky 1,807 Posted May 21, 2016 Share Posted May 21, 2016 If Arsenal (!!!) of all clubs are closing in on of the best midfielders in Europe last season I think we really can feel impatient. We are still in this enquiries and talks limbo and doesn't look like we get out of here soon enough. Doesn't seem that something is happening at all. Last season this time I would be called a kid who doesn't have his new toys and make rumbling about this but now everyone agrees that there are worry early signs of inactivity. How the hell Nainggolan isn't signed on dotted lines yet ? And that offer for Koulibaly was probably something funny like 20m€ or smth. Meh.
