Reminding me so much of a FM save. Swaps for Sancho, Chiesa, Felix and Osimhen. No one can convince me there’s a plan to all this. 

Just glad it’s established players and not more teenagers 

Learned a bit too late. Like £500m too late. Maybe the penny drops… but I doubt it.

Even in a world where Frank can be passed off as Caitlyn,pretty sure 6th is in the top half of the premier league.

 

Martin Samuels hates CFC and he is wrong .... 2 of these keepers played for us last season, and If I recall correctly we did finish in the top 6

Chelsea

• Diego Moreira officially signs in as a new Strasbourg player from Chelsea on a permanent deal. BlueCo formally completed the deal on Friday.

• Maresca on the Conor Gallagher saga: “Conor is back. He is training apart from the group. He is doing some medical tests and training. He won't be involved for the game vs Man City because he is trying to find a solution…”

• Maresca on Osimhen and João Félix: “I’m not gonna comment on Atléti and Napoli players… The club knows exactly what I think and hopefully before the window shuts we can bring in some more players.”

• Understand Chelsea and Atlético are getting closer to a final agreement for João Félix and Conor Gallagher! Positive round of talks on Friday, João says yes to contract terms. Rumours on €60m fixed fee for Félix are not true. All parties working to get it done this weekend.

• Ben Chilwell, set to leave Chelsea as Maresca has confirmed: “It's probably better he goes and leaves and finds minutes. I love the way he is, the problem is that he is struggling to find the right position with us...”

• Si Phillips muses on the Gallagher/Félix and Osimhen/Lukaku situations and wonders whether Mudryk will be given the time to come good.

• “Good to be back on the grass,” says Reece James on his social media accounts.

• Understand Chelsea see Romelu Lukaku and Victor Osimhen as separate deals. NO negotiations over a swap, Chelsea are focused now on selling Lukaku on a permanent deal. Napoli are on it with personal terms agreed, talks ongoing with Chelsea as only open to permanent sale.

• Chelsea remain interested in Victor Osimhen as the option was re-activated weeks ago and talks are still ongoing. But Chelsea informed Napoli that they could proceed on loan in the final days. Osimhen and his camp always been clear, not open to loan/no way to reduce salary.

I just can’t imagine any of these clubs being willing to sell such key players so late in the window. Especially PL clubs.

If we don't get Osimhen we will go last seconds for Toney

[xPetrCechx 13,573]

So we are going to sell Gallagher, Chilwell and Madueke?

Who should I support then? 🤔

Bang average player Toney.

[Pizy 18,952]

I just can’t escape the feeling that Toney is a big fish in a small pond type. Not convinced he’s good enough for the very biggest clubs. Him going from a small club like Brentford to a medium sized one feels more like his level to me.

If it’s not Osimhen I’d just stick with what we have and Guiu will get loads of minutes this season rotating with Nico. Jackson as the starter, Guiu as his backup, and Nkunku or perhaps Felix as emergency false 9’s.

Spending £50-60m on 28 year old Toney is too risky, imo. If he flops in his first season of what I assume would be a 5 year contract it would be a disaster even bigger than Lukaku in terms of trying to shift him.

Like, seriously no one here cares Toney was banned for betting? Stay away from the club, Abramovitch's staff at least had proper gravitas and avoided recruiting any type of obvious football shitheads, fortunately keeping the level of substance scandals, sexual assaults allegations, DUI and all this stuff sticking to the club at reasonably low level. Now hardly anyone seems to care if this club becomes a joke or not.

Reasonably low. Can't predict everything, however Alonso car crash, Mutu, Barkley and few more perhaps are still night and day vs likes of Dembele, Onana, Tonali or constant United shithousery. Just avoid problems were they are easy to avoid.

Bit heartless. He had a gambling problem from 2017-2021 and he's tried to turn his life around, been in therapy for it and fully admitted what he's done - he's not a rapist, or a murderer. I have it in my heart to forgive a person's past mistakes in plenty of circumstances, including the rather ridiculous circumstance of a man betting on himself to score.

John Terry was a much worse human being than Ivan Toney (not that it is a competition) and we let him play for us despite the many despicable things he kept doing.

I don't think we will sign him but if we did my concerns would purely be footballing related.

Wouldn't class killing some 1 then letting them pay then off n come play for us reasonably low 🤣

Way too much for Felix, but at least he fits in the system.
