I'll be so happy if we can pull this off. I rate kovacic over Savic (SMS) and he'll take our midfield to the level of Mancity.

Kante

Jorginho - Kovacic

VS

Fernadinho

KDB     -     Siva

I think it’s a bit early to be making comparisons like this but it will give us a much more competitive and technical midfield than we’ve had in years, which coupled with Sarri and his philosophy should give us something good this season. But again CF and left back is maybe still an issue.

Add RW to that list

Unless one of Pedro or Willian go I severely doubt it. We’ve got Hazard/Hudson Odoi for the left and Willian/Pedro for the right. Jorginho/Kante/Kovacic/Cesc/Barkley/one of Drinkwater or Bakayoko for 6 CMF options.

Still uncertainty around Batshuayi and Giroud as well as talk of Alonso being a target for Real so yeah maybe still be something done there if anything goes through but out wide cant see it. Unless CHO is not used and Willian plays left side when Hazard doesn’t play, only way I see us getting another right winger.

With this deal and Kepa gathering insane momentum....I hope we can hypnotise Palace and offer them RLC/Drinky and cash for Zaha...

God what a fucking squad that will be...

yeah i agree, i dont think we'll sign a rw. I'm just saying the position is still an issue.

Yeah possibly but I think once we get going properly Willian and Pedro will be better than under Antonio. Particularly Pedro think he will be a goal threat more than anything else.

Has no one started stalking his family's instagram to see if this is happening?

It will honestly be our most technical midfield in years. It will soften the blow of not replacing morata with a finisher for me. At least one part of the team will be complete (midfield)

if we bring kepa, kovacic and fekir how are we standing with hg players. we cant sell all of drinkwater, rlc, moses etc...

Bakayoko RLC Batshuayi going out on loan...hoping for a last minute willian/martial swap

[Dimitr 488]

Ok with our midfield 

but how we can score goals? 

With morata ?

[akgw13 867]

would love to see a loan with option to buy type deal. Similar to James with Bayern. 

[Dimitr 488]

As I said before we can buy him after the loan https://www.alfredopedulla.com/retroscena-kepa-promosso-sarri-ora-sconto-clausola-kovacic/

 

Chelsea asked Bilbao for a discount, they refused, so Chelsea decided to activate the full clause. Other targets (Butland, Oblak) are just agents sorting contracts. Real value Kovacic at €60-70m if Chelsea want to sign him permanently. (After his loan.)

Kovacic can press too. Imagine him along side Kante. Oh boy oh boy oh boy!
