Chelsea banned for TWO transfer windows

[Special Juan 27,529]

If it is found we can buy in January then there should be absolutely no fucks given when spending.....Identify the target/s and throw the money at them.

[Antonio8 736]

Need a top CB and RB if possible

Where's the link?

Let's go all out for Stefan de Vrij, Koulibaly or Skriniar

If we get the ban reduced and we have identified main targets that are attainable in January then I'm all for us strengthening.

What I hope we don't do however is buy 'alternatives' simply because they aren't cup tied and can still play in the Champions League.

Case in point would obviously be someone like Zaha. Up for debate if he's an upgrade on what we already have, although he would make our squad as a whole that much stronger. But I'd much rather we took a better player even if they were cup tied this season. We need to stop thinking short term stop gaps and add strategically and clinically to the massive potential this squad has already got within it.

2nd striker. That's it. Let giroud and pedro leave, they offer nothing. I mean absolute 0. And get someone like Werner or dembele. 

In the summer, get an LB. More than good. 

[Atomiswave 6,072]

We def need a striker, Dembele would be good here. 1 injury to Tammy and we may well not get top 4, its that fucked up. Giroud and Bats are spent.

I think that rule is also reduced a season or two ago...

How reliable is Telegraph? Just because they reported it it doesn't mean it's going to happen today.

True. Probably as reliable as other newspapers etc. Everywhere is reporting pretty much the same. Waiting news blah blah 

[Vybz Kartel 1,613]

This is probably not getting announced today

[Muzchap 8,966]

So no news then... sigh 

[LAM09 6,838]

An announcement is supposedly meant to be made tomorrow. Let's hope it's good news
