Since there haven’t been any real links with our current CB’s going this month I’m wondering if the plan is to move to a 3 CB system for good under Rosenoir. Because otherwise we’ll have too many of them once a new guy arrives.

We’re already having to shoehorn Josh in at RB because the CB spots are too crowded. If we sign yet another young kid this month I seriously don’t know what Josh’s future holds. He’d have every right to want out and we know already that multiple huge clubs fancy him.

It wouldn't surprise me if we sold Tosin or someone else who we can book a profit for, or agreed a loan deal for Acheampong to Strasbourg or something (if we have loan slots?). TBH I have always thought Acheampong should be out on a good loan and keeping him here is negligent and harmful for him this season.

🔵💣BREAKING: Chelsea and Jérémy Jacquet have agreed contract terms! 📝✅️ 

(@Santi_J_FM) 

🗯💥Rennes: Jérémy Jacquet wants to move to Chelsea.

On Saturday morning, RMC Sport reported that Chelsea was preparing a very attractive offer of at least €50 million.

Although the Red and Blacks do not want to sell, a huge check could change the situation.

According to our sources, SRFC wants to make the biggest sale in the club's history (€70 million), surpassing Jérémy Doku, who moved to Manchester City for €60 million in the summer of 2023.

In addition, the player has already agreed to move to London, where he would be a regular starter.

To be continued...

If we pay that for the next baby, all the blue co needs to leave this club.

Jeremy Jacquet, Jacobo Ramon or Charlie Cresswell 😂

Be lucky if they have about 200 starts between them…..

Who would realistically kick up a fuss? Not like any of them barring Reece, Cole & Moises would be worth that 200-250k p/w wages. Most of the rest would be taking the piss to ask for that/want to leave because we were to offer that sort of wages to that level of player. Plus their on 6,7,8 year deals so there is no rush for the club to bow to any sort of ransoms. Which I thought was part of the reason for having these contracts? 

Anyway, few names there. Hincapie is more than likely signing for Arsenal in the summer, they’ve a £45m clause in the loan deal that they just need to trigger. Pains me to say it but why is any player leaving Arsenal to come to Chelsea at the moment?

Senesi already been ruled out internally by BlueCo going by the information being put out there the last few days - probably a non starter anyway, hes 28… too old. 

Van der Ven is difficult because he plays at Spurs and they’ve never liked doing business with us. He is also a left footed central defender who’d expect to play every week & we already have Colwill who is no doubt going to be one of the first names on the team sheet when he is fit. The real issue isn’t just finding a top CB, its finding a top CB to partner Colwill. Then keeping Levi fit. If it was anyone from Spurs it would have to be Cristian Romero but doubtful we’d go for him. Again, too old.

Ordonez another unproven player with minimal experience at a competitive level but has “potential”. Be good in 2030!!

The next 2 CBs we sign realistically cannot be in this mould & we should get rid of at least 2 from Fofana, Badiashile & Tosin. Trevor may go as well who knows, but for me he would be a solid enough squad player.

Yes looks like Marmoush is going strangely enough, not sure what happened he doesn’t look the same player he did in that initial 6 months. Cherki’s maybe not been a regular but his contribution in limited mins are pretty incredible -  basically a goal or assist every 80 minutes. Not to mention, he missed 8 or 9 games for club & country due to injury from October so no doubt would’ve been more minutes. Not sure where you’re getting your info on Reijnders, he has been a regular starter since going there. 12 goal contributions from midfield in his first 6 months at City also, think he’s started effectively 75% of their games. 

All of them would kick up a fuss if Guehi is signed and is on 50-100k more pw. You think they are worth between 200 and 250 but if the club signs Guehi for 300 that won't matter and they'll be asking for a raise or leave the club. 

A 6-7 year deal on 300k pw wages is a 100m dent on wages alone btw. I can understand why we are not in the Guehi fight. 

Looks like it will be Jacquet from Rennes anyway

Our first offer is £43m and Rennes are asking for £56m. Think this deal might happen.

🗯🔵Chelsea are set to allow Celtic target David Datro Fofana to leave the club permanently this month after recalling him from a loan spell at Fatih Karagumruk.

Van de Ven who wants to leave Spurs. Or one of the high rated young CBs like Ordonez. 

we should be ALL OVER VDV

and Ordonez was my first choice for an actually available 22yo and under right footed CB, but the club said they were NOT persuing him (a few weeks back)

 

the 20 best non teen left footed CBs on the planet IMHO  

Alessandro Bastoni 
Gabriel Magalhães 
Josko Gvardiol 
Dean Huijsen (ambipedal, he is the only ambiedal CB of any ageI truly rate ATM, although do not sleep on an 18yo Serb, Nikola Simić of Partizan Belgrade )
Micky van de Ven   
Willian Pacho   
Murillo   
Levi Colwill  
Alessandro Buongiorno
Nico Schlotterbeck 
Piero Hincapié 
Jarrad Branthwaite 
Castello Lukeba 
Gonçalo Inácio  
Konstantinos Koulierakis   
Marcos Senesi   
Renato Veiga    
Sven Botman    
Evan Ndicka
Dávid Hancko

 

the 2 best 20yo and under lefty CBs (Huijsen turns 21 in 2 and a half months)

Honest Ahanor (turns 18 in February)

Karim Coulibaly (turns 19 in May)

plus the 18yo (19yo in March) ambipedal Serb I mentioned above
