Non-Chelsea Transfer Pub

[Fernando 6,376]

I don't think I'm surprised to be honest. Said the same thing was going to happen like last season. 

Waste your time chasing targets that you can't get and now we will settle for less. 

I much rather not settle for less and just stay where we at. Because what's the point of getting other players like Miazga, Pata, Papy, and Hector when they don't contribute nothing and then get send out on loans.....

If we end up with a completely inadequate squad, I can see the hate train looming. I'm either ready to get on, or completely drop off. Can CFC fire some people not named Conte?

[Fernando 6,376]

Well there's no shakeup in the board. It's always the managers fault. 

If they sack Conte I give up with this board. 

They must realize that if they can't get the business done then don't have high expectation. Making top 4 is not guaranteed with this defense.

These next 6 days will either be the best of times or the worst of times.

The flaw of putting all your eggs in the Koulibaly basket and seemingly paying for it.

[calculatingInfinity 1,443]

Doubt they did. There was quite a few targets, including Manolas and Bonucci that seems to have been true.

 

Still doesn't change that this is a huge failure of a transfer window, and absolutely pathetic. Even with Kante in, and Michy who seems very promising, not getting any proper defenders is such a huge failure. Now we will end up with trash similar to Papy and Miazga again.

[Laylabelle 9,296]

Last year was though.so many rumours and in the end nothing to show for it. Same issues as last year to come by the looks..yay..

Gabigol and Mario to inter almost done.

[Sideshow Luiz 2,310]

Mario to Inter, surely means Brozovic to us.  Why aren't we the ones getting Mario?  Have we fallen that far without CL?

Well there are some people who will probably say he also wasn't available

No because he is dog shit.  If Brozovic would Not be so lnconsistent he would be a great Player.  Many Inter Fans i know would be angry if the inter board Sell Brozo just for Joao Mario

Have you even watched Joao Mario outside of the Euros(which he was great at also)?

The Portuguese lads here you know, those who actually watch him on consistent basis, regard Joao Mario as one of the most talented mids in Europe. And before you say it's biased this viewpoint comes from the fans of sporting's rivals as well.

some stats to highlight how stupid the situation we find ourselves in is:

 

[the wes 7,212]

Jonas Hector and Ricardo Rodriguez have both been assessed but Marcos Alonso has now emerged as a surprise target for #Chelsea. [Mirror]

[nono 791]

We are having to pay a 15m pound premium just for english clubs from all these italian sides. Maybe they should start looking at other leagues. It's a bad position to be in. Either we'll have to overspend or we will get a stop gap player who won't be in the manager's long term plans.

[Sideshow Luiz 2,310]

How did we go from needing defenders (badly) to being linked with selling 1 or 2 of them?

What is going on here?

We're still in the same place, there was just one dumb report
