Chelsea Transfers

[milka 3,344]

Raheem Sterling, Christopher Nkunku, Jonathan David, Darwin Nunez & Ousmane Dembele are all targets for #Chelsea this summer.

Todd Boehly wants to support Thomas Tuchel and  to kick-off a new #Chelsea era in spectacular fashion, vowing to bring the best of the best to Stamford Bridge.

Crap why we always do this? Loan with these Italians clubs but we give them a lot of money. 

They truly take advantage of us all the time. 

It's the only way most of them (Juve being the exception) can accommodate such transfers.

Seen reports of Dembele on a free? Is this serious or more BS?

Of course, his contract expiry date has been known for years and for the last 2 years he has refused to renew.

sterling + dembele and selling werner/ziyech will be a clear upgrade

what do you think?

Unfortunately, Werner is on enormous wages so it’s still highly unlikely they’ll be many suitors. Much like Lukaku. Not sure where he could go realistically.

I think Bayern would make a lot of sense considering his relationship with Nagelsmann & Lewy being on the move.

They’re getting Mané, though. I guess they could go for him if Gnabry also leaves. In which case we should be trying to work something out with them to get Gnabry.

If you look at their attacking players, they are either getting on or want to leave, so this would be the perfect time. I personally prefer us going for Lewy, if there's any interest on his behalf.

The positive thing about the Lukaku tranfer is that he himself is pushing for a move

I don't care if we have to loan Lukaku, we simply cannot have another season of him standing around pointing again and/or sitting on the bench posting tweets or doing silly interviews. Yeah, it isn't great, but I think we just need to lube up and accept the shafting on that one.

Will be a hard one for the board to take. Giving a club 100m to then loan the player back to that exact club a year later. Can't see it happening tbh.

Loan him to someone else or accept a low fee. Either way he cannot be here next season. Obviously not a great situation but sometimes you need to take the hit to save yourself from a bigger hit down the line. I mean, we keep him, then it'll not just be the £100m hit, but a £100m hit with 4 x years of £350k+ a week plus the Drama.

I want him gone tomorrow. As it stands, the worse transfer decision in Chelsea history. I hope Todd and his cronies walked into the first board meeting and asked who the fuck gave the go ahead for such a disastrous decision. I hope that head rolled.

One of the other things working against us in getting rid of Rom that hasn’t been talked about much is that there’s an extreme shortage of top quality strikers out there to replace him with. Unless Tuchel is going to go full Pep and have an entire attack consisting entirely of midfielders we will need to replace Lukaku. And we’d need at least w new attackers to do that.

Going into a season with Havertz and Broja as our only focal point strikers is no way to bridge the gap to the top 2.

Personally, I am expecting big things from Kai next season. He has shown good progress since he has been here and now just needs to get the consistency together. I know a lot of people see him as a £70m player and that means he should've performed from day one, but he came in so young and has been moved around a lot/misunderstood I don't think that is necessarily the right way to view him. Imo, he is the kind of player like KdB was at his age, where everything is there, you just need him to get the consistency (which takes time/faith.) 

As for a CF, if this season has shown us anything it is that we don't really need a pure No.9. To win the PL at the moment you need a line that presses as a unit and like mad men. Obviously, taking chances has to improve but you most certainly need the former first. 

If I were in charge, I would personally take a hard look at Jesus. He isn't perfect or elite but he would slot in nicely imo and give us an option until someone else either takes the place or turns up in the market.

Take the €20M. I like RLC, but I think he is who he is always going to be by now.

 

 

I think Ruben should take that offer and the club should allow him to.

We put ourselves in a position we can be exploited. Let's hope this will happen much less frequently from now on eh.
