Chelsea Transfers

[Special Juan 27,419]

The next move simply has to come from Caicedo now, not us. He needs to start stamping his feet as this is beyond pathetic now.

We should be saying to his agents etc that's it we are done, goodbye it's over to you lot now.

The only way he kicks up a fuss is if he sees us go out there and put a serious bid for another DM

Amazing negotiations.

How are they advanced if the price difference is 100%? Are they going to throw in some extra casks of Gatorade and a lawnmower to sweeten the deal, or what?

[Mário César 972]

if we fail lavia, what will do ?

what a fucking nonsense

we should make this bid weeks ago and not now that lavio is almost agree with liverpool

Pity what happened to CHO, when Bayern was trying to troll us and pry him away for 45, we should have let them and troll the troll this way. Never really recovered after injury and this huge absurd contract and doubt he ever had mentality to do so. Could be hot stuff if he ever had stepped up.

We'll end up loaning Zakaria on deadline day again.

Get in, he still has Chelsea in his Instagram bio, so maybe we wouldn't need to ask him twice to come at least 🙄

[Pizy 18,360]

I can’t even imagine who we’d panic buy if Caicedo doesn’t happen and Lavia then chooses Liverpool. I hope in that scenario we at least try to throw massive money at a world class player who may not even have been on the radar. Someone who may not technically be “available” but who could be sold if a huge offer comes in.

If we panic buy Onana or that DM from Ajax who we were after Alvarez I’d be bitterly disappointed and worried that we won’t get near the top 4.

seriously all this talk about our scouts; but you can't find a middle ground between a 100m and 18 year old that would need a few years. 

We have been doing with the likes of Jackson and Badiashille. 

Which should then enable us to splash the big bucks on ready made when need be.

[Mhsc 869]

Definitely walk away from Caicedo and no more business with Brighton - don’t sell them anyone either unless for outrageous prices. Now that word is on the street money means nothing to them what goes around comes around.

Despite panic there is shit loads of good options we’ve mentioned in this thread and no doubt far more we’ve never heard of the scouts should have an eye on.

[Clockwork 1,794]

Definitely do not rate Lavia. 

[NikkiCFC 7,925]

He should do Gallas and threatened to score own goals. 

[Pizy 18,360]

The thing with Lavia is that he’s still a kid. Which is why it’s probably better for him that he goes to Liverpool where he wouldn’t be expected to start every game and can be eased in by Klopp. That immense pressure to hit the ground running with top class performances week in and week out wouldn’t be there.

Whereas if he came here he’d be thrown right into the fire and have a huge burden of being the primary defensive shield for a huge club. Asking that for a 19 year old is big. Doing it for a Southampton and doing it for Chelsea with our expectations is a massive difference.

No to Lavia. Buy players that want to be here. Lavia is our plan B and we are Lavias plan B. Not the mindset we want and need.

I don’t think Onana would be a bad buy. Sitting in front of the back line and adds another big body (6’5”) on set pieces. And fee would be around £55m-65m

You do realise that Fabinho is close to a deal with the Saudi League as well....and they have just sold Henderson.   I don't think they have another starting DM and Lavia would take that role.
