They bought him for 25m which is quite a lot for their standards and they have a sell on clause agreed with his previous club Almeria. pool will have to pay way over market value to get him. he has 3 years contract left and release clause of 150m. 4 hours ago, Blues Forever said: #Chelsea have agreed a new contract with academy graduate Xavier Simons. [via @AdamNewson] that dude has the exact same name as the girly looking (or should I say non-binary?) lad at PSG who is hyped af. Also the same age and both are midfielders. ours is much taller, English and a DM tho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jacsion Arik 5 Posted June 11, 2022 Share Posted June 11, 2022 Inter Milan reveal £60m price tag for perfect Chelsea and Tottenham transfer amid PSG hijacking nter Milan defender Milan Skriniar has been heavily linked with a move away from the San Siro this summer, with Chelsea and Tottenham said to be among the several clubs ready to step up to the plate. However, the pair of London clubs reportedly face tough competition from Paris Saint-Germain. The 27-year-old, who sees his contract in Italy expire next year, featured 35 times for Simone Inzaghi's side in the Serie A this season, helping the Nerazzurri retain the second best defensive record in the league. Skriniar has grown into one of Europe's most coveted centre-backs in recent years and his impressive displays have, once again, rallied a wealth of interest in his services. According to Italian newspaper La Gazzetta dello Sport, PSG have already submitted a €50million (£42.7m) bid for the defender which was swiftly rejected. Chelsea and Tottenham, who are also believed to be interested in rivalling the French giants for the Slovakian's signature, are yet to have tabled an offer of their own.

Lukaku unfortunately has strong connections with ex players like Drogba, Cech & Terry. I think these connections have won him favor and make his departure difficult Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s kind of hilarious and ironic that for years we’ve been a club who always chased and signed the big, flashy, classic #9 whilst City and Liverpool have either not used a striker at all or have played with more of a playmaking one. Now we want to sign a more unorthodox striker in order to catch up to City and a Liverpool whilst they’re signing classic #9’s. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why wouldn't he? We will spend entire summer trying to offload Donkeyaku just like we spent entire last summer selling our youngsters to get the funds to buy him. This club is becoming some kind of parody. On the official you tube page there is video about Havertz - Chelsea's main man. After splashing 100+85 mill on Donkeyaku's fee and wages year before, Havertz is our main man. What's wrong with that picture? Message to Donkeyaku perhaps, but what is it for - no way we are offloading Donkeyaku without taking major financial loss. We will just have pleasure of having him far playing for other club while still paying his wages and transfer fee. Donkeyaku came here to get his pay increase Inter chairman refused to offer him, and to come back. His plan is running smoothly. And people still argue if this is the worst transfer ever. Not only at Chelsea, in entire football history. Sterling? God no. He will become championship player here. Lukaku wibes. Jesus. No. He will be at least three times less affective here than at City. Unless we sort out that midfield we stand no chance. Midfield still main priority. Nothing has changed from the last season. In fact it has. We need new defence too.

We are stuck with donkey. I hope whoever did this deal gets sacked. Donkey surely one of our worst signings Even if he had performed, to his inter level, which still would have been just around 20 non-pen goals this was a terrible deal. Which is why half the forum was up in arms about the price tag. But while Darwin is a better value for money signing, I just do not see it. Many players had decent scoring seasons in portugal. Luis Diaz looked like an absolute beast and wasno surprise at all he made an instant impact at pool but i took some time to watch Darwin's highlight reel and while that is no indication of a player being good enough, most of his best actions do not look that impressive. he rarely makes clean contact with the ball for his goals, a lot of scrappy moves and scruffy goals. A ton of pens. Terrible defending and goalkeeping involved. A small number of very nice finishes tho but most are either very easy ones on empty goals or 1 on 1 with the goalie. Sure our strikers are proficient at fucking those up as well but you would expect a 100m to make the basics right. The Uruguayan Calvert-Lewin for me. Decent but would not bat an eye to pass up on him even if we had not signed the donkey for 100m. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hashishi 148 Posted June 12, 2022 Share Posted June 12, 2022 I seriously hope that I'd we don't sign a DM we start to transition James into midfield. He made Alonso look good when he played there and the team is naturally more balanced. Would need a new RB but I have faith in the academy to provide another Livra.

The creativity from our midfield is horrendous. We literally have to play a certain way to cater to them because they can't hold up the ball on their own or work out of a press... To me our #1 priority. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
