akgw13 867 Posted June 8, 2017 Share Posted June 8, 2017 seems as though Peps early spending has lit a fire under Contes ass. All ridiculous rumours and lazy linking but still exciting to let the mind wander at the possibilities. zekinjo and Chelseabluerising 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, one has to play three seasons in England to be HG. Mbappe was born in December 1998, so he would turn 21 in the middle of his third season.

oldportblue 547 Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 if we were to end up with lukaku and mbappe (and we sell/loan michy and sell costa), that wouldn't be a bad window at all in terms of revamping our attackSent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Unionjack 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mbappe would be an ideal fit next to lukaku in a 2 man strike team. only problem is he is going to be the most expensive player ever and its a fist fight for his signature oldportblue 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Skipper 20,609 Posted June 9, 2017 Share Posted June 9, 2017 So Hazard Lukaku Mbappe? I remember suggesting something similar a few months ago, and I got scorned at lol. Now people are absolutely okay with us spending over £100m on the kid? Life comes at you fast. oldportblue and kellzfresh 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hello Skip, Never doubt your powers of persuasion my friend. Not that you'll ever persuade me that Rom is the right choice. A workable choice perhaps, but never the best one.

I never thought we'd get hazard at the time and yet he chose us... Plus, mbappe seems to like Chelsea from previous social media posts, we are the current PL champions, we are in London, we give out huge salaries, we are in CL and will be competing on 4 fronts next year, we have a lot of french speaking players... We have as much chance as anyone (bar madrid, barca and bayern but they're not necessarily after him) imo. Not saying we'll get him but it's really not beyond the realm of possibilities Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not saying we'll get him but it's really not beyond the realm of possibilities He has his heart set on joining Real Madrid when he does leave Monaco which will not be this season as most reports indicate that Monaco will reject all advances from clubs trying to sign him this summer. Real Madrid already has had a bid of 115m pounds rejected. I just can't see us competing with Real Madrid when it comes to transfer fees and even if we do, Mbappe's preference will be Real not us and all this will only come to pass if the unlikely scenario of Monaco agreeing to sell their most coveted asset this summer occurs. With Hazard it was clear that he player and club (Lille) knew that it was time to move on and we were only competing with the English giants. Mbappe is nailed on to be Perez's next shiny galactico which is not the worst thing ever as it would mean Real keeping their dirty paws off our Eden.

If Madrid want him, yeah it would be very tough to get him but honestly, where would they even play him? I know for a fact he likes Chelsea so if the Madrid rumors aren't true, then we might still have a chance... As to Monaco not selling, clubs always say that but it's not always necessarily true EDIT: I read on twitter that telegraph are reporting that monaco want michy, perhaps we could use that as a bargaining chip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
