Yeah paying 30+mill you would think you Should be getting a Gary upgrade! Can't remember the last time a big money move has left me empty-"there's just something so obvious about emptiness,even when you try to convince yourself otherwise".

Ppl act like its there own cash that's been spent if conte wants him then that's fine. Sorry but conte knows more then us lot about players he needs to play the way wants, some of you lot need to get that in your heads

......................why do people still believe our managers choose our signings 100% of the time ._. it's more like they present 3 options to the board, who come back with 2 players of their own who're seemingly similar, and its one of those 2 players our manager gets to choose from.

Well I assume the logic is: every pound spent is one less pound spendable elsewhere.

It's all different from club to club. Some managers tell the club what players they want and they try to get them. Some are there to just provide input on the transfers. Unless someone at the club wants to enlighten us, we probably won't know exactly how much transfer control a Chelsea manager has.

I think most people were saying the same thing last year in relation to Alonso-Azpi/Zouma. Was he an upgrade on either? 

Now, towards the end of the season people not many would put Zouma in the squad at the cost of Alonso not being there.  

I'm fine if Conte thinks Rudiger is an upgrade on Cahill. We also have to have squad depth in order to play more games. We can't just upgrade our first 11 every transfer window.

Cahill will remain in the squad mate. Even the XI.

You honestly think Conte would still be here if the board made signings?

This is a very specific breakdown of the way you think CF transfers are handled. Do you have evidence to support this?

I've got how it works here..

 

Maria "Hi, Maria G from CFC, that player you want 70M for would you accept 50M"

Seller "No" *Phone down*

[Tautvix 1,321]

In 24hours, 48 hours, 1 week, 1 month.. Tired of this shit.

Where is Bakayoko? It was supposed to be agreed weeks ago but he is still not here? Same story as with Lukaku? Maybe United will end up signing them all? Sandro will sign for Chelsea? He maybe would be there's no way we are paying £60M for LB.

And this is not panic. This is what happens year after year. Conte will be sacked or he will just leave.

[Bulshizza 15]

How many people would prefer to have Rudiger over Ake? And how many the idiot plus £14m?
