Chelsea Transfers

So that’s several decent journalists reporting it. But it’s nothing different to what Ornstein said last week. We’re pushing and pushing but the player is still not ready to commit to leaving yet. Be good if we agree a fee with Barca like United did so that if he decides to go we’re ready.

Agreed. In a straight shoot out between us and City we were never going to win. In fact I think we could have faced another situation where a player might have accepted a lesser contract than we offered, and chosen to play for someone else instead. We outrank clubs seen as being outside the elite group but, among the elites we are not a preferred destination.

Trying to fix this needs to be a key objective for Clearlake.

We are reigning champions of the world, Pep every May falls into a black hole.
Is n't that a bit exaggerated ?
I can think only of the proverbial crabs as a reason we are not preferred destination.

OK, we have an honest disagreement then.

not free, his release clause (which had a fixed fee of €60m OR £54m) had to be paid

the fee in pounds was set when 60m euros equalled £54m, and was not a floating (at current FOREX) rate

many reports looked at the 60m euros and just did a real time conversion to pounds, thus yielding £51.5m, but this was not the case

Well, 150m - 60m = 90m saved plus whatever Haaland costs as a free player.
The reason was Lukaku who failed us.

Think Ziyech would struggle just as badly in the United side as he does here. So if we could get a nice little fee from them I wouldn’t actually mind. Stops them getting someone better.

Look at how Sancho has looked since joining them.

How is the club planning to replace Werner, Ziyech and CHO? None of the alternatives seem like upgrades.

I think at this point we can only let one of Ziyech or CHO leave.

Who is a viable replacement though?

That’s the million dollar question. But surely after letting Lukaku and Timo go plus showing a willingness to let CHO and Ziyech go means that something is being worked on.

God knows what…

The bid to sign Richarlison makes sense now. Tuchel wanted an overhaul

Matt Law now says that we will indeed press for Auba.

Not sure how I feel about that. A striker that’s going to depend entirely on chances being served up to him on a plate. If you watch pretty much every goal he scored at Barca they come from fantastic service that seemed to mostly consisted of great Dembele crosses.

That list should raise alarm bells immediately because how many of those were deemed a success? Granted a couple could still turn things around, and a couple like Neymar for example haven't exactly been flops but beyond Mbappe and maybe Bale, can you really argue any of the rest have been successful buys?

You only have to then look at Chelsea's own list for most expensive attacking buys in our history and it's littered with disaster after disaster. 

I'd much rather see a couple of well thought out and scouted buys for attacking positions than splashing out big again.
