Chelsea Transfers

[nyikolajevics 2,690]

It's been discussed wheter we should buy Sancho, sell Madueke, but didn't see anyone mention the possibility of offloading Neto. Are you all happy with him? I feel Jadon, Noni, Palmer and hopefully Estevao all have something to offer that other players cannot. Neto's skillset is too simple, no end product, no good against solid defence. He is 25, a player who makes a living with his pace but has a solid injury history, I don't feel his ceiling is any more higher.

If you’re Ekitike, why would you even want to come to Chelsea after seeing us sign Delap and already have Jackson here? It makes little sense from either our perspective or his.

This guy joined a team which had Messi, Mbappe, Neymar and Icardi. Up to challanges perhaps?

Remember that Chelsea love Jamie Gittens from Dortmund. He is one of the players on the list, not the only one. So for sure, he's one of the players they are considering.

And did nothing there despite no one wanting to play CF. That isn't exactly a ringing endorsement.

It's frustrating seeing us go all in for someone who has done very little to warrant such interest. If the board watched Frankfurt, did they not see Marmoush carry the team offensively for months?

Yeah, and that worked out terribly for him and it felt like he was there for 5 minutes. Don't know if he wants a repeat of that scenario.

Sesko looks extremely talented and could become great at Arse but I’d actually be pretty relieved if they sign him instead of Gyokeres. Sesko looks to me to be more of a risk whereas Gyokeres feels like he’d seamlessly slot in to a Arse/Chelsea/Liverpool and hit the ground running.

If Arse do indeed go for Sesko though I wonder where that leaves Gyokeres in terms of options. The usual big boys Madrid, Barca, and Bayern don’t need a #9. The big Italian sides are usually broke. City have Haaland.

Suppose there’s an outside chance United pull a Casemiro/Di Maria/Varane and massively shell out for a superstar when nobody expected it. But that’s exactly what got them into the mess they’re in now. Handing players monster wages.

I see two options that could emerge soon. Liverpool have not yet signed a striker and will replace Darwin. It could be that they go to Gyokeres  

Barca want a striker too but are not yet committing to signing players due to their finances.

Yeah, those two make sense. He goes to Liverpool and they may dominate the league like Pep did for a few years so hopefully it’s not there. 

Barca would be picture perfect for them but as you say who knows if they can make it work financially.

I do not think they have enough Dinner Ladies left to sack to pull that off.

Stylistically he's closer to Isak and can also play off the main striker

Looks like everyone opted against Gyokeres.

I wonder what has put both Arsenal and Chelsea off Gyokeres. Yet to see a club go in for him when he has the most impressive numbers

Gotta be high wage demands similar to Osimhen, right? What else can explain every too club not immediately going and starting a sweepstakes once the season ended?

Or maybe everyone has already been informed that he only wants one particular club and is sitting back and waiting until that deal is sealed?

Haven't watched him but going through the internet for reasons - Looks like there are doubts he can handle the Premier League's defenders. He has two seasons in the Championship and two seasons in the Portuguese league. He rarely scores headers and without his box contribution, there are doubts his technical level is good enough.
