No mate, when Torres was announced years ago the forum went down due to traffic. People are really calm right now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
different level 1,056 Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 I mean I'm very happy and excited, but £70 m are way too excessive for a player that is somewhat unproven to be the leading striker of a top team (or any team). I'm still cautiously optimistic, I hope he fulfills the great expectations we have for him and turn out to be the world class striker we paid for.

Yes, Real Madrid waste. Just like Makelele. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just because morata is coming from Madrid doesn't make him there waste. No comparison between Sanchez and Morata. One was a regular at Barca, incredible with Chilie, and shown so much in his career. While you can not say any of those about Morata. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They even made a last minuted bid for Bakayoko. I'm taking tabloid reporting with a pinch of salt. It was widely publicised that Chelsea wanted Lukakau but I've not seen any evidence of a bid. The same might he said for United and Bakayoko. I've read quite a few articles analysing Moratta and whilst it's true he hasn't banged in 20 a season year on year everything about his stats suggests he is capable. Lukaka is a proven goal scorer, but the problems which Mourinhi highlighted when we sold him (in short his work ethic) remain. Each have there merits, Morattonis more technically gifted, and a tireless worker for the team. Lukaka is goal machine able to impose himself sing his physical preference. But I'm happy with the purchase, seal the deal for Sandro and this makes for a great transfer period for Chelsea IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lukaku was our waste but he turned into quite the sought after player. I just hope Conte can bring the best in him that the price tag would start to look silly in few years.

Just because morata is coming from Madrid doesn't make him there waste. Not really a great comparison, Sanchez was actually an important part of Barcelona's squad for a couple of seasons, and became superfluous only after the signing of Suarez. Morata on the other hand has never been a first team player in his life. Sorry for ruining the mood and being "a prick", but I find it difficult to get excited to see the club break its transfer record for a benchwarmer.

Mbappe could walk into any starting squad with the exception of Barca, and possibly Madrid. How about Morata at age 25? He has neither great potential or great body of work. Madrid fans i know are calling it their best piece business since signing Ronaldo. Only Madrid fans who are gutted are those who are sentimental because he is a Castilla product. Played for the Italian champions season before last, played for the Spanish Champions last year now signed to the Neglosh champions for the coming season. You can say what you like but he has consistently performed for the best teams in two out of the top 5 leagues in Europe. Everything suggests he'll be capable of doing just the same in the EPL.

Special Juan 28,141 Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 Can't really call him waste when they play with Benzema as well as Ronaldo and Bale, difficult to get a real sniff in all honesty. His goal return is good for someone who has played a cameo role week in and week out.

Afraid that this will happen for us too...hopefully he can step his game up or we are in for a nightmare next season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FabHazard 655 Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 Finally...Striker position is sorted for the future..It would be a joy to watch Chelsea side with a good technical player who can link up with others...Morata as ST will make us play beautiful football Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cosmicway 1,333 Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 I expect a lot from Bakayoko because he was one of our targets from the beginning and he was also very good in Monaco of course. Morata will replace Costa -let's hope- so effectively we have made one transfer in total (ok, plus Rudiger the defender from Roma). We need one more.

chelseawise 115 Posted July 19, 2017 Share Posted July 19, 2017 All we need now is Sanchez from Arsenal and that will complete our transfers. Not too concerned about not getting any full backs, quite happy with Mosses and Alonso with Azpilicueta as back up Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
