Fernando 6,585 Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 On 7/18/2017 at 8:59 AM, akgw13 said: Now I agree with you, even i have my limits aha i am very concerned about our striker situation. Conte did not handle it well but writing was always on the wall over his situation. Rudiger/Bakayoko/Hopefully Danilo are good business but if we don't get a top line striker (Morata/Belotti) in we are in some real trouble. I, like you, am very disappointed in how this is being handled. I am not as frustrated as you or most are but i am quickly joining haha.

That's why Chelsea fans are always on edge. Panic always looms. 15-16 was so painful and embarrassing on so many levels. Easy to blame everything on Mourinho, but board just haven't learned. Not one bit. Chelsea fans don't know what to expect either. Are we penny pinching to pay for the stadium? No clarity from the club. No insight. The board should have overruled Jose when it was clear Stones and Pogba weren't coming, so in that regard they deserve there slice of the blame but Jose's reluctance to offer plan bs was the main reason we fell hard that summer.

So why did we get ride of all the promising youngsters he signed cause Jose wanted to? if this guy is behind our transfers the last 10 years then he needs an appreciation thread. Look how much City have spent to net only to EPL trophies compared to us. Also, I think we can all agree this guy doesn't decide how much we will spend on a player, whoever makes that decision, is the one in charge of our transfers.

Jype 6,398 Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 ^ Quite obviously a club briefing, no chance all the major newspapers in England got the same exact story at the same time without being briefed or leaked. Sounds promising though. Club still confident on Alex Sandro plus going after Llorente and Candreva as squad player signings. Land all those and it's a huge impovement overall on last season's squad.

Superblue 6,372 Posted July 24, 2017 Share Posted July 24, 2017 Yep a couple of papers seem to think we'll spend another £150m and I read another soundbite from Steve Atkins that they've been planning for this transfer window for a long time (as in it would be a huge one). Ultimately once Matic and Costa are sold though, our current net transfer spend this summer would be minimal, so going and spending another £150m this summer wouldn't be surprising at all. Hopefully some exciting times ahead... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RoyalBlues 4,050 Posted July 25, 2017 Share Posted July 25, 2017 Think Conte want to take his time to analyze the team for a moment now. He want to give a chance for some players (especially young players) to prove their worth. After that we will back in business.

And here we have the deep level of ignorance exhibited in this thread laid bare to be seen. I am not criticising Miki-Liki. He didn't know and so asked a perfectly reasonable question. Totally sensible behaviour. Problem is the vast majority of the drivel posted here is not sensible. All posters here know just as little about Chelsea's transfer activity as Miki-Liki does about Chelsea'a Head of Communications and Public Affairs, yet they pronounce away with abandon. Don't bother telling me what the board is doing. I know you don't know. Don't bother telling me why the board is doing it. I know you haven't got a clue. Don't bother telling me that you understand Chelsea FC's finances better than the board does because I know where to find great comedy when I want it. Don't bother telling me that you are expert in negotiating eight, or even nine, figure transactions because I don't know any psychiatrists I can recommend you to.

Educated guess, i should have presented the post better (as i made it sound like i had inside info haha). Matt Law has since said that was the case and i can't recall any seriously links to any player other than Stones and Pogba (in CB and CM) circa 2015 compared to Conte's first summer when we where strongly linked to numerous CB's Bonucci, Koulibaly, Rudiger, Maksimovic before "settling" on Luiz.
