Chelsea Transfers

[Special Juan 28,110]

Sami Mokbel from the BBC confirming our interest in Kudus

Plettenberg is also saying we are really pushing for Ekitike but Liverpool are also there

[Strike 7,475]

 

5m is ridiculously low for someone who's had a good season of starting games in the PL

 

[Duppy Conqueror 1,527]

Think we could get Rogers for money that it would take to get Kudus.maybe we would have to pay more hard cash for Rogers but both deals look like would be a player + cash deal.

I'd be much happier with Rogers. We have a need in our attack but we do have to consider whats coming through before biting on big money deals.

Noni nor Neto may be the longterm answers but for atleast another year till George and Willian can grow into starting roles isnt a bad idea imo either.

It’s honestly sad and depressing what this club has turned into. We’re out here chasing average players like Kudus and random youngsters, instead of going after proven top-level talent. The team desperately needs a proper center back someone like Ilya Zabarnyi would be ideal. For the left wing, Rodrigo makes perfect sense. Up front? Viktor Gyökeres is the obvious choice solid, proven, and without some ridiculous buyout clause.

But no, instead we’re being linked with names like Ekitike overhyped, unproven, and now Frankfurt will probably demand €80–100M for him, just because of recent sales. Look at what Man City paid for that Egyptian forward €75M. PSG spent €95M on Kolo Muani. Clubs see us coming from a mile away.

Worse still, we clearly haven’t learned a thing from past mistakes. We keep shopping in the Bundesliga like it’s some magic fix but most of those signings flop. The style of football there is nothing like the Premier League. How many more times do we need to get burned before we stop?

I really miss the Roman Abramovich era. That was a club with ambition, with a winning mentality. Now? It's a shell of what it used to be. You think Roman’s watching this and laughing? Not a chance this has to hurt him, just like it hurts the real fans.

Half this squad is made up of average players. And any fan who truly understands football knows exactly how many top players we actually have you can count them on one hand. No need to say names. Real fans know.

Madueke and cash for Gordon is a deal I'd like to see

Did not copied that. Instead of speaking about real problem we have you speaking about copy paste text, did not expected from you Special Juan and also the last person I expected to replay such a nonsense

Men i had more respect to you because you one of active users here for very very long time, but I see you like what clown Clarke is doing with this club. Crazy how fans also so brainwashed about all this. This clowns already destroyed what Roman build for so many years by becoming academy club like Ajax but with money.

Take a step back and it was a tongue in cheek bit of fun mate, honestly just chill out I didn't shit on your Xmas presents

The  middle ground between Roman and Clearlake is where we need to be. Both were/are too extreme opposites. Lets see what the rest of the summer window/s bring up.

Gordon is a great player what are you talking about, we have have some fantastic players under Roman and some absolute dross aswell, palmer and caicedo for example would fit in most teams Roman made, no one is brain washed but this is how the club is now…. We have no say who we buy but I for one am happy with delap premier proven and tore us a new arse hold when we played Ipswich. 

[OneMoSalah 8,883]

If Newcastle want Noni then the first player we should be trying to get from them/work into any deal, is Sandro Tonali (Isak would be top but unattainable for us I think). 

Gordon has improved aye and is of a similar position but what a season Tonali has had. He and Caicedo would be scary. I get then we’d have to reshuffle the pack re positioning/playing Enzo & Cole together, have Santos coming back as well as Lavia (fitness going to be reliable?) but it would be some statement signing. Would be something the old Chelsea would do - like when Ballack came in. Defo more pressing areas but if we are going to try deal with Newcastle for Noni, why not?

Can’t see it happening but would be a massive move - weakening a CL rival significantly whilst strengthening our midfield with one of the best PL players in that position for me. Was noise about Napoli/Juventus/Milan sniffing around Tonali this summer I think.
