All but two of those players listed were absolutely shit for us and all but two have been since.

I can think of many reasons top class footballers won't want to sign for Chelsea but a bunch of shit players being held accountable for their performances I very highly doubt will be one of them.

Fact is alot of big.money transfers have come not delivered and have been fucked off. Players take note of that, therefor reluctant to come. Am not saying its the only reason by any means.

Thoughts on Rafael Leao?

Corrupt FC. 

Perhaps, but since it's Barca, I wouldn't be surprised if they bought all those players and then couldn't register them to play in La Liga because of FFP, lol

Very good winger coupled with his physicality he would be tailor made for premier league doubt milan will sell him

Lewandowski: A final offer from Barcelona is expected in the next hours - of around €50m + bonus. Bayern is willing to sell him for €50-55m. His transfer to Barcelona is more and more likely this week. Bayern wants to invest the money in #DeLigt.

Bayern are already preparing a new direct approach with Juventus for Matthijs de Ligt. Full agreement on personal terms, but €60m is not enough to convince Juventus. 🇳🇱 #FCBayern 

Chelsea are still working on Nathan Aké deal and in direct contact with Kalidou Koulibaly's agent.

[Blues Forever 1,232]

Yep, it's over for De Ligt.

The price will be similar to Raphinha.

No, he will be more expensive. Leao has €150m release clause.

Yep. Since when is a player who's yet to even turn 27 considered too old? Fucking hell.

At that age a player is literally just about to hit his peak years and barring injury will continue to play at their best level for the entire 5 year contract. Our squad already has Mount, Pulisic, Havertz and CHO as U23 attacking players so getting some more experienced legs in there can only be a good thing.

Not every player has to be 22 or under when signed, never quite understood the obsession with that. Of course I fully get the idea that younger players usually have more re-sale value and room for improvement in their game, but at the same time because the young guns are still improving they're more often than not wildly inconsistent with their performances. 

Would love to sign Gnabry if a deal can be made. 

wingers simply do not age well

in the top 50 most valuable wingers on T-Markt

there is ONE over 30 not named Pessi (and Pessi fell off the cliff after 33yo)

the recently turned 31yo  (4 months ago) Riyad Mahrez

if this was the summer of 2021

he would be the only one even 30yo (except for Pessi)

but, of course we now have the recently turned 30yo's 

Salah

Neymar

Son

Mane

and all are rapidly dropping in value

fucking shit, batshuayi is still on the team. i guess no need to worry about backups for a striker

We are with the right coach. TT doesn't have  the same pull or attraction to players as Pep or Klopp. If Ancelotti or Mou were our coach, we wouldn't have this problem [Attracting top players.]

I agree with your first sentence but not your second. Incidentally Pep turned us down at least twice and the rumour was that Klopp did too.

Think Leão will be impossible to pry from Milan. He has Real Madrid or PSG for mega money in a season or two written all over him if his development continues. He’d probably cost over 100m this summer.
