RoyalBlues 4,050 Posted July 31, 2017 Share Posted July 31, 2017 Yes, there is a whole month left, but the season start very soon. New signing need to gel, understand Conte philosophy, etc. Stupid to do a couple deadline day signings.

The problems with a thin squad comes from wear and tear along the season, we can easily survive late signings. The single most important thing is that we get the players, them coming early is a bonus. We do have a very capable starting eleven as it is, if the remaining signings are width, then the rush goes away a little bit. I mean, right now the intended season-wide starting eleven is this (I assume): Morata Hazard Pedro Bakayoko Kante Alonso Moses Cahill Luiz Cesar Courtois Bakayoko and Hazard should be fit somewhat soon. If we get say Telles, Ox and Barkley then we can survive the first month or so before we need to throw them in a starting eleven potentially.

Don't know why you have to wait until deadline day, when you have the money now. The de facto answer will be, we need to make some empty spaces first before buying, which we ultimately have did it. If the purpose of pushing the move, we can do it now either without problem. Sooner the better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It honestly can't. Although I'd take Ox, i agree, that only Chelsea are allergic to having big names on the bench. But Bayern, City, and Madrid have no problem placing 6 or 7 Starting XI calibure players on the bench.

Idk about candreva anymore, he seems to old to play wingback and not better than what we have at RW. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whoever claims to believe otherwise is just purposefully being negative in an attempt to cleverly criticize the board. I am willing to bet with anybody who thinks we won't be making any more signings, just need to find an online betting platform and agree the price. @communicate what do you think, if I find a place where we can conveniently bet, would you be willing to throw in a symbolic amount like 10€ or so? The fact that we have just sold Matic for 40 m, I think we will make signing simply because now we have excess cash to spend Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
