Chelsea Transfers

[Vegetable 830]

I hope Boehly or rather his staff have a plan in place and control of the situation, as for now it looks like we are being a tiny bit fooled from every side possible like a bunch of kindergarten kids

[Mário César 1,232]

we will don't buy neither de ligt neither dembele neither raphinha

lets see what we will do

but lets honest, raphinha and de ligt are very overhyped

no way one values 75M and other almost 100M

raphinha was playing in a relegation team ffs how the world he show level to play in barcelona?

Am not that bothered about getting Raphinha but tbh I'd love us to just chuck another 10m at Leeds just to piss Barca off.

That's a bit unfair. Joe Cole actually got relegated for West Ham but he did ok when we got him. Andrew Robertson got relegated twice yet look at him now.

75M€...

Jesus christ

he doesn't worth that value 

 

agreed, he is not a $63.5m player at this point

my whole interest in him was when I thought he was in the £40, 45m or so (£50m max) range

there are no wingers actually available NOW, this moment, who are worth that, especially given contract expiration issues on some

Cahill was going to relegate with Bolton when we signed him in 2012 January. We trashed Bolton 5-1 as Sturridge and Lampard humiliated them. Within few weeks, Gary was vital part of our defence and won CL, passing Napoli, Barca and Bayern..

 

Not to mention, we are about to sign Ake and Sterling from City and many of TC members also dislike.. So, who should we buy?

Thats right. I see now we are going for SIUUU

 

and the same goes for CB. We have signalled to everybody and their dog that we are desperate to sign an attacker and another cb for an easy 150m. Honestly, we should pack it up. This is amateur hour. Just stick with what we have if we can not get established players and our scouts are too dumb to identify alternative targets. We are not gonna compete for the title anyway, so why not give Colwill, Dujon, Conor, Broja a chance.

Ake is not any better than Ampadu, let alone Colwill. Even the point "at least he does not block Colwill's path" is BS. Why spend 50m on a squad player then? We could get N'dicka for 10m who is 10 better than ake and would not block Colwill's path either, if he indeed is good enough.

Also Raphinha does not look to dissimilar to pulisic except for managing to stay on his feet longer and get injured less often. Same number of non-penalty goals as well, similar career scoring record too.

the Sterling buy is great, and it is done

the Ake buy is shit, and not done

[Mário César 1,232]

Is a lot of money... my point is that

He can show level, but not to worth this type of money in a club that has many financial problems

besides barcelona is much bigger than Chelsea and robertson go to a shit liverpool and not to a barça

I am quite weary of buying CBs who play in a 3 CB system, hence my concerns with Gvardiol. Hence i would prefer Kounde.

So we lost both Raphinha and Dembele, nice.. let's get De Ligt under the line next.

he doesn't fancy us over Bayern I fear

we have almost zero chance to win the league, we likely will struggle for top 4, and we have a tiny, old, out date stadium, plus we play a back 3 (he prefers a back 2 CB set up)

none of those apply to Bayern

Kounde was Marina's pet CB project, she has left and we are no longer on the boil over him

Cesar Azpilicueta: Chelsea demand £7m to sell as defender agrees bumper Barcelona contract

Don't worry we will run with our tail between our legs back to him as soon as De Ligt is lost.

we should be ALL over Skriniar

Inter will take £63.5m to £67.5m (75m to 80m euros)

PSG are trying to low-ball them under €70m say around €65m, and they are getting pissed

he can play in both a back 3 and a back 2 and is great with ball, plus is strong as a bull with very decent pace (for sure faster than AC was)

I have watched him play so much over the past 5 years or so, he is deffo a buy for me
