Mourinho downfall could be seen all the way from the poor pre season we had because players were not bought(specific) and those who were bought where not on time. Just go back and check how it all started. That season wasn't just down to preseason and not having signings there. It had just as much to do with our players not taking the season seriously, being tired of Mourinho's tactics and Mourinho not adjusting to what was going on. preseason is important but good players will get up to speed quickly. 11Drogba 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For this reason you hardly see Big signings during the Winter transfer because they all want to start at the beginning and not midway through the season . Its best to start the season knowing what you have. Look at last season. If we had done or businesses early and gotten who the manager wanted we might not have needed to draw with swansea, loose to liverpool and arsenal before we figured out and changed tactics. People will say then we will probably have not won the league but I say we would have probably done the double. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dahnald 256 Posted July 5, 2017 Share Posted July 5, 2017 People who say "calm down it's only July 5th" also said back in early June "calm down market opens July 1th". I'm not melting. I simply just don't really care anymore because as fans, we're powerless in transfers. The thing that really nags me is that Chelsea are really lacking behind. AGAIN. THIRD YEAR IN A ROW. Conte demanded early action on the market and it hasn't happened. The guy has brought Abramovich a title and gets fuck all for it back. Deals are taking way, WAAAAY too long. Bakayoko was already reported to be done. Still no announcement. Alex Sandro simply isn't happening anymore. Chelsea don't switch to other targets quick enough just last year with Koulibaly and that year earlier with Stones. That really nags me. We sell Costa, and I can already see us having lot of problems buying Lukaku from hard ball Everton. We enter late July and BVB and Torino refuse to sell Auba or Belotti because it's already too late. I don't know what's going on at Chelsea. I get the impression that the board/owner simply don't really care anymore, so I advice all of us to do the same. Tbo hasn't signed a new contract yet, as has Eden Hazard. Conte as well and Conte will leave Chelsea if this situation doesn't change anytime soon. And we can all give up on Chelsea if this happen. And I've already placed my bets on Conte walking away.

Artandur 939 Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 So should man u get both Morata AND Lukaku, would the club actually try going after Belotti ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bernard N Y Burgesson 139 Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 Chelsea's instability also makes signing players so difficult, This is what Lacazette had to say about a move to Arsenal; Throughout my childhood, thanks to Thierry Henry and other French players, I dreamed of playing for this club. “I like the fact the manager has been here for a while as it shows it is a stable club. Not every player looks at this but some do. Why would players be attracted when they know who ever is bringing them in might probably leave a year later. Smaller teams can handle that but for big club you may find youself on the bench and for chelsea you may find yourself on loan for the next 4yrs of your career Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leif 6,006 Posted July 6, 2017 Share Posted July 6, 2017 Agreed. I envy the clubs who have young elite talent like Musonda, Abraham, Boga, when we're stuck with the likes of RLC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
