Half those players are worse than what we have here. 

We have some mismatched pieces trying to fit and learn how to play together. Takes time. 

Y'all can't even give Poch 17 games before calling it quits - and he hasn't had a full roster the entire time.

Same, I still like poch. He is the one manager that really needs time. 

With Tuchel I was a fan but I always saw him as a short term manager. He was not a good manager to build a team for 5 years. Poch is and he will be adjusting and seeing who should go and who should come. 

We need to take a stand and back Poch. For me at least till next season, if by next season in December we are still the same then I will worried. But I expected these results from the get go, we are not stable yet, but it should grow little by little.

 But bloated by 3 goals in EL quali and some more vs inferior opposition in EL and EFL cup. Not sold on him yet. I think for once we made the better deal with Palmer 

I think he could have coexisted with Palmer

and remember, he is doing thsi on a fairly quotidian West Ham team

Toney is ass. Isn't better than Jackson. 

Give the boys time. 

Mamar is good choice.

we need a CF IMHO

and the top ones (I already listed them above)

will not come here I wager

I rate Toney, but only at a fair price

No, no they are not (especially as Reece and Fofana look either perma fucked (Fofana) or on the road to it (Reece) atm, and dog helps us if Nkunku goes that route as well).

Those I listed are literally most of the top players on the planet (I listed players from pretty much every position) who would be remotely (some very remotely) available to us in normal Chels circumstances (no, Mbappe would very likely not come here even if we were at 2016 to 2021 levels) and are under 30yo. I also did not list youth players.

Pochettino obviously wants to keep Gallagher, but these wrongers want to get rid of him our  best player of the season in January like Chalobah .  For what to take another Brazillian  .

IF we could actually pull them (we very likely cannot) we would be insane to not sign Bremer or Marquinhos (even though he turns 30yo in May I wager he has 3 or 4 top years left)

They are both great CBs, better than most of what we have (especially as Thiago turns 40yo in 9 months and likely is not coming back)

they are also both right footed

the only two decent CBs we have after Thiago leaves (Fofana is likely perma trashed) are Levi Colwill and Benoît Badiashile, who are both left-footed

only other one floating about out there is Bashir Humphreys. the 20yo out on loan at Swansea, who is ALSO a lefty

 

in terms of other right-footed CB options out there, many will likely not come (and likely neither will Bremer or Marquinhos

strike throughs will likely not come 

bold I rate to buy

red were my top 4

thsi is a pretty comprehensive list as well, many names who I would not be thrilled with

Matthijs de Ligt 
Marquinhos  (age makes this also very unlikely)
António Silva
Bremer 
Giorgio Scalvini
Jean-Clair Todibo (tough pull)
Mohamed Simakan   (tough pull)
Edmond Tapsoba 
Marc Guéhi   
Odilon Kossounou
Robin Le Normand
José María Giménez (too many injuries)
Malick Thiaw  
Ousmane Diomande   
Leny Yoro (just turned 18) best teen CB (either foot) out there IMHO
Taylor Harwood-Bellis
Perr Schuurs   
Nicolò Casale
Kevin Danso
Maxence Lacroix
Wilfried Singo
Oumar Solet
Danilho Doekhi
Josip Sutalo
Zeno Debast

We have wage low structure no way to get any top players soon

and neither of those 2 will come here anyway 

I just posted them to show there are great Brasilian players who we could desperately use and who, back in the day, may have come here

🚨🔵EXCLUSIVE: Chelsea open talks to sign Victor Osimhen — understand €80m initial bid has been submitted.

Negotiations to take place with Napoli as Victor is open to change and try new experience in 2024.

It’d be permanent transfer — deal on and advancing.

There are plenty to be sold before Gallagher.

By the summer, I think Silva (age), Chalobah, Cucurella, Maatsen, Ugo, Noni, Mudryk, Broja should be gone.

Chelsea nearing agreement to sign Pape Daouda Diong

https://theathletic.com/5151650/2023/12/20/Chelsea-transfer-news-pape-daouda-diong/

Chelsea are close to a deal for Senegalese midfielder Pape Daouda Diong.

Diong, 17, was present at Stamford Bridge on Tuesday evening as Chelsea defeated Newcastle United in the Carabao Cup quarter-finals.

Any move would see the midfielder join the Premier League club in June 2024, once he turns 18.

An international at representative level for his national team, he was a key part of the Senegal squad at the recent Under-17 World Cup in Indonesia.

Diong played all four of his country’s matches — starting twice — as Senegal were eliminated by eventual finalists France in the round of 16.

Diong watched as Mykhailo Mudryk’s late equaliser forced a penalty shootout before Djordje Petrovic saved the crucial spot-kick to send Chelsea to the last four.

Chelsea’s new ownership have prioritised securing future deals for promising younger players with Kendry Paez, a 16-year-old Ecuadorian who was also in attendance at Stamford Bridge, not set to officially sign with the club until May 2025.

If you mean Gyökeres, yeah, even though Im Swedish i can confirm he is horse shite and not on the level we need. 

[Fernando 6,733]

So Silva leaving this summer. 

And then we got Fofana injured, and Disasi who I'm not sold. We need to get new CB me thinks. 

Despite the bad goal that we got with Badi I still take him over Disasi. 

I mentioned before that I would like to buy Hincapie from Levurkesen. We have two players from Ecuador might as well add another, and I think Hincapie might be the best of them.
