Chelsea Transfers

Some of these smaller PL teams will get desperate as the deadline approaches and it's at that time we can probably scam a couple of them into coming for our deadwood. Maybe even on loan if necessary. Could see Ross or RLC going on loan.

Before this transfer window, we had every right to criticise her.

This window has been so extraordinary, people already forgot the awful signings we had over the years.

Drinkwater, Bakayoko, Zappacosta, Higuain, Morata (although BIG credit to her to offloading him not losing money), Barkley, resigning Alonso, Bats...

Not to mention the transfer ban (although that is more collectively the board’s fault, she IS part of it).

We had awful windows these past number of years, that’s why one of the reasons we found ourselves outside the top 4 at one point and nowhere near challenging City or Liverpool. It’s why one of the reasons last season we got mullered 7-1 in agg against Bayern.

We are having a fanatical right now with this window. You can forgive her. But don’t forget about WHY this window is so big. It’s because previously all of our past windows since 14/15 were shite.

No doubt the likes of Drinkwater and Bakayoko etc were bad signings but what’s it to do with Marina? Seriously this nonsense should stop already, Marina didn’t doesn’t won’t choose targets, she only takes orders and negotiates, no?

She doesn’t just “negotiate”, she’s the chief. She has a lot more power than you think at this club. Example Conte had better targets, but he didn’t get them and we got players like Zappa instead. You don’t think she played NO part in that?

I doubt this shit will happen again now with Cech here, he seems to have a massive influence on transfers, as much as Lampard does.

I truly believe she doesn’t have the power to identify targets. That’s not her job, if she’s the one to choose then I think it’s a mega stupid decision by the club as a whole. Every bad signings the club should be blamed as a whole, from scouts to the manager to the director and to the board, ironically Marina holds the least responsibility. We can only blame her for didn’t negotiate a lower fee but who are we to know what were the situations back then? Maybe the time left for her to negotiate was limited, maybe our club sent out the desperate signal to seller clubs so that she didn’t have much leverages to bargain, who knows.

Some rumours about Umtiti being released by Barca, might be worth a punt on a free despite his injury record.

Also looking at the state of West Ham I honestly think we should try and get Rice now since Lampard likes him a lot, he isn't my favorite but is decent and can cover the centre back as well in case things go tits up again this season.

It’s debatable I agree, but Conte just gave you the PL title, trust in the guy FFS. 

Then if it goes wrong, Conte would had zero excuses.

He did win the PL title but trust him when he's asking players like Candreva, Llorente? That's very difficult. 

Furthermore, this is a manager who refused to work with the board properly on transfer targets and reportedly turned off his mobile in 2017 off season to avoid being contacted by the club.
