DDA 9,983 Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 What is slightly worrying for me, is zero interest in any defensive minded midfielders. Last season teams were running through our mid as if we had none on the field. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hence why I have zero sympathy for Tuchel if the same happens this season. Our midfield lacks so much physicality and aggression it’s bewildering why we are allegedly waiting for only Rice to address this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J5 is embarrassing when caught on the counter. I cannot belive for the life of me why we would go into another season with that as the primary option.

Bissouma ran circles against us. Home and away. It was pathetic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turgi 71 Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 If you look at it 'on paper', all our rivals got stronger and we got weaker. Good luck to us with top four race. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s whether De Jong wants to go given Barca still owe him wages. The longer the time goes on it seems that the assurances that de Jong wants to join Man Utd is only from Barca. The player negotiations have not begun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blues Forever 1,232 Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 Several defenders are being followed by Juventus, should Matthijs De Ligt leave. Number one on the list is still Kalidou Koulibaly. They are also interested in Gabriel Magalhaes, Gleison Bremer, Benoit Badiashile and Pau Torres. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.

xPetrCechx 13,578 Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 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. @SkySportDE @Sky_Marc 🇵🇱 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xPetrCechx 13,578 Posted July 12, 2022 Share Posted July 12, 2022 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.
