The difference was that, even then, we had Drogba and Lampard. Now we have Morata and Bakayoko (LOOOL)

We have Hazard and Kante now ... at least compare star players to star players

Yeah, massively watered down versions who were on the whole poor post the double.

Sounds like if agreement is reached with Dzeko before they KO tonight v Sampdoria, he will be benched and fly to London tomorrow.

Really hope they sort this out  -bit of a discrepancy over bonuses or something atm.

But when it mattered most they would be back to their best which is why we still won CL and FA Cup 2012. If I had to choose whether to have 2012 Lamps/Drogs or 2018 Hazard/Kante in a CL final, I would not think twice.

There are star players then there is Drogba, biggest of big game players.

They weren't back to their best, they dug in and shown a great mentality but the reality was we were outplayed by Barca and Bayern and won due to a combination of said mentality and someone in the sky. If we get to the CL final this season then chances are Hazard and Kante played a big part in getting us there so i'd be duty bound to trust them.

I am surprised we'd let him play tonight, if he does his ligaments or something, back to the drawing board we go.

 

I read yesterday that supposedly 2 options were drawn up with his agent.  £110k/week and he signs until 2019 or 2020 with option of extra year.    Or £84k/week but he signs until 2021

Dzeko not even in the squad for tonight apparently.

Edit: Or at least not in the eleven, my italian is horrible.

Don't think I've ever heard of "personal terms" being the main hold up in a transfer. Usually that's nothing more than a formality and it's convincing the other club to sell or the fee itself that's the main issue.

Looks like the opposite here and everything with Roma is sorted. Got to imagine that its length of contract that's stalling things.

To be fair Barkley, Dezko and Palmeiri is really good january transfer window for me. 

I hope Conte stays, he can continue to build next summer. 

I think next season the squad will be more balanced....well that's if we keep Hazard and Courtois.
