Well, we wear blue, play in the Europa League and have a squad full of piss poor players. So maybe we are 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sideshow Luiz 2,310 Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 Perhaps our inactivity in the market is due to us wanting to see what we are working with? As in, which players are suited an which aren't, and waiting to see what we have before getting in new players? It's probably not the case, just looking for some optimism. Maybe the board have a 2-3 year plan? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe the board have a 2-3 year plan? I think it is just a case of being unable to conclude deals. I have no doubt we have gone for 6-7 players and failed all bar Jorginho and Green. Will we do anything by Thursday? Never say never despite me being incredibly pessimistic of the chances. I fully expect us to do sweet FA. On the other hand i think for sure Courtois is going to tell Sarri he wants out and his replacement gets signed. His agents comments were quite emphatic. Although Sarri said today he has spoken to both; and expects more good news than bad. Maybe the good news is re.Hazard? Or both?! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ChelseaFanUK 1,001 Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 Ok, one deal which i could maybe see happening, given our recent business is Aaron Ramsey Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sideshow Luiz 2,310 Posted August 5, 2018 Share Posted August 5, 2018 Decent keeper in, Courtois + cash for Kovacic. That's my wish. I'm expecting disappointment. But, trying to be positive as I stated above. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

He would compliment Jorginho and Kante a lot. A good balance between Cesc and Barkley. If we do not sign another CM(i would argue 2 CM and sell Drink/Baka), we might as well switch to 4-2-3-1. Because Barkley is not a CM, he is not a presence in midfield. Cesc is too old. Might as well place another attacker. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I think Arsenal would take £30m Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sideshow Luiz 2,310 Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 Zouma, RLC, and Abraham are on the loan list on the CFC website. Anyone know if they are new additions (so deals done), or if they just haven't updated the page: https://www.chelseafc.com/en/teams/on-loan-players Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Its clear that Sarri asked for one and his quote about needing somethimg special in midfield I THOUGHT was aimed at that spot. Tho it could also have meant RW of course. He apparently wanted Vecino. Who many of us slagged off but Sarri sees something in him he thinks we need and us just like our luvly board are secomd guessing him thinking we know his system better than him. Golovin would have been good. Kovacic would be good, Savic would be the fuckin bollox. Christ I'd snatch up the north Londoner Ramsey over Barkley and Cescy right now Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Kovacic, IMO, would be the best option considering the price (compared to the money thrown about for SMS) and that RM seem to be open to selling, and he seems to be open to moving (but not for Jose), and we have business to work out with Madrid for Courtois.

We have allot of business to work out if we are going by todays effort. Of course Eden,WBM will make a big difference all depending where Eden plays. MIGHT make a new RW a lower priority with Pedro BU for both but still lacks allot of depth. With 4 days left its going to either be a right pigs ear or we will bring out a hail Mary. Whats your money on? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

And even if we don't bring anyone in, I'm hopeful that it's because they want to see what they are working with before jettisoning players or getting the wrong players in. This is what I tell myself. Marina is doing her best to crush my optimism, it feels. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Alabama 1,907 Posted August 6, 2018 Share Posted August 6, 2018 Why are u guys so hell bent on Vecino...Sarri wants to suck the hope I have for him away by going for same average serie A players conte did also...Rugani/vecino... On another side note...saw many Spanish outlets getting us linked with William Jose but Sociedad asking price is driving the deal crazy...so it seems the board knows Morata can't be trusted...

I dont believe for 1 second RIGHT NOW that our luvly board led by the delightfill Granny is just waiting to see whats needed. Which of course is very sensible. I need you to make me a self help recording I can play in my sleep. Sod it I'll set up a supply and give them out at the games! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
