Non-Chelsea Transfer Pub

Why no club try to buy Fekir ? He is 60-80m€ player by today's standards when fit and flying. Now he would be available for much less. But yeah, all top clubs probably can't wait until he rediscovers his form to start bidding odd sums for him.

Firmino, Coutinho, Sane, Lallana, Wijnaldum for the attacking three. Klopp went for strength in depth I guess. If Firmino and Coutinho continue to develop and truly tap into their potential, they could become the difference makers.

The situation up top is something though. Sturridge's will without a doubt continue so you need a really good #2 and #3. Is Origi ready to be that man? The likes of Ings, Firmino and Sane to deputise when needed.

You're not getting anywhere with that centre midfield though. Same goes for GK. Surprised they haven't strengthened there. William Carvalho would be a good buy. Or take a slight gamble with Witsel. Signing Lass Diarra would be the smartest move though. Gonalons is also a very good option. Underrated player. For the GK position I'd go for Forster, Butland or Rui Patricio.

They need a new LB as well. Moreno is a liability. Sell Mignolet, Moreno, Allen, Henderson, Benteke and Balotelli.

Borussia Dortmund bring Mario Götze back from Bayern Munich for £22m

This should be proof to any young German footballer, the grass isn't always greener on the other side, guys like Leroy Sane, Sule, Max Meyer etc should all be wary of going to Bayern. Hopefully Gotze can get himself back to where he was at before he started struggling with injuries, still is one hell of a talent and only 24.

That 7 players give me headache : Hazard, Oscar, Willian, Cuadrado, Pedro, Kenedy, Moses,

So many players, so little quality. We should sell 4 players from that, buy 1 great and have 4 attacking midfielders and 2 of them with world-class abilities.

Come on Chels, it's not rocket science !
 

I think Oscar, Cuadrado, Pedro and Moses can all go over the next season/season after tbh. That leaves us with Hazard, Willian and Kenedy. We sign someone like Isco or James to fill the void and hope someone like Musonda or Boga (or both) makes that step up in Spain. That leaves us oozing with quality in Hazard, Isco/James, Willian, Kenedy Musonda and/or Boga. It's so easy to achieve this. 

Personally if I was building this team in the future I would go for:

GK: Courtois, Begovic

DF: Zouma, Christensen, Azpilicueta, JT(one more season maybe, as a back up to integrate Andreas?), a new LB, a new CB. Kenedy/Ake/Aina to fill in defensively. 

MF: Fabregas, Matic, Kante, RLC, Chalobah. 

AM: Hazard, Isco, Willian, Kenedy, Musonda, Boga

CF: Costa, Batshuayi, Traore, Solanke. 

That's 25 players I believe. Full of academy and HG players but also filled with talented squad players. 

All we've done here is sold: Cahill, Baba, Ivanovic, Mikel, Oscar, Cuadrado, Moses and Remy. (Lots of funds!)

Bought: a new LB, a new CB and Isco. 

This is actually very doable. Makes too much sense for it to happen though.

Dortmund with another great transfer. They've signed Schurrle from Wolfsburg. Tuchel is building really strong team and I'm sure Reus is really happy with his best friends next to him next season

Nice that's he's stepped up a level. His Jupiler League performances did not suggest he is a Chelsea player in the making however.

Meanwhile, maybe there is something in all of those Granada are the new Vitesse stories.

First half of season showed some promising stuff, after that he lost it totally with some errors and a lot of cards..

Conte already sounds very ambitious. Already speaking about trying to fight for the title until the game day and now this report. Love it. Let's hope Roman and the board backs him so he is able to get those 5 signings that he needs.

If 4 come in how many go out ? Thought a world class CB would be priority ,that would do me with Batman+Kante,use the youth/loanees to pimp up the numbers.

Well we need 1 more st if we are going to play 2 up top.

We need one Cb 

We need a Rb

And then Lopez will replace begovic 

Not sure who will be off if anyone. 

[Unionjack 7,531]

Its fairly obvious that Conte for whatever reason is after another striker.. We have been lsupposedly given bids for Higuain,Morata,Lukaky and Cavani.

Cavani and Higain I'd have said great do it - 5 years ago. But at 29 we wont get our moneys worth.

Id be happy with either Lukasku or Morata. Both are great young strikers that will only get better, gell longer with the lads and will be worth much more in future. Ive this feeling tho Cavani is coming!

We desperatly need a CB and FB (preferably 2 FBs) This needs doing FAST and we should pay whatever is needed to get the right one.

I would also get one from Isco,James,Kroos,Turan.

We got some great under 22s and can see them being used more and more under Conte which is great but I would take a complete player every day..
