Not that it matters because none of these lot know genuinely what we're planning. Can't remember too many sources picking up on the pulisic deal last year before it was official.

His performances and stats at Palace are similar to Damien Duff's at Blackburn and he didn't do too badly with the step up. ulsterchelsea and Stats 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We cant afford to fuck about no longer, we must be crucial and smart this time. Hence I dont see Zaha as a smart buy, not at the claimed fees anyway. I dont believe we we are after him to be honest, it will probably be Dembele and Dembele only in Jan. But even that looks a tough one to pull off.

Great player He was indeed a good player but because he turned out good for us does not mean Zaha will be as good. We had a monster of a team, players we could count on to pick up the slack etc. I just dont see Zaha as a Chels player now or in the future, if he comes and does well I happily admit I was way wrong.

Like I said I think it's Sancho or Zaha. So obviously I would prefer Jadon but if we can't sign him I'm OK with Zaha. For me Zaha it's top 5 wingers in the league with Salah, Mane, Son and Sterling. Only difference he plays for much weaker team. Henrique 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChelseaFanUK 1,014 Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 Thinking with a sensible head on... much as I'd like Werner i think he will join Bayern in the summer. Just a hunch Could see Sancho arriving in the summer with us, though And I really dont think Gabigol is coming here, i reckon West Ham, Palace, Watford kinda club is getting him. Ian McGarry is the ultimate bullshitter, knows nothing. Think we will end the window with Dembele, and Ake, perhaps Zaha, too. Werner, Sancho, Koulibaly., O. Dembele, and that kinda calibre player do not move in January. Any stories about them can be filed under "gossip and nonsense" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Losing nearly £100 million and revenue almost flatlining might well mean we're shopping at Aldi rather than Harrods in the coming transfer windows.

Losing nearly £100 million and revenue almost flatlining might well mean we're shopping at Aldi rather than Harrods in the coming transfer windows. I don't think I'd be too concerned with last year's figures. Someone please correct me if I'm mistaken but those results will take into account us buying Jorginho, Kepa and Pulisic last season, whilst there was only one sizeable player sale I believe in Courtois. Also we didn't have Champions League football last season. Despite winning the Europa League, I think we've already over doubled our european money this season compared to last or something nearly as ridiculous. Having sold Hazard in the summer, Morata this coming summer and likely some other player sales, I think a good amount of money will be spent across the next 2 transfer windows. To be fair the times we feel we've shopped at Harrods, we've come away feeling we haven't got value for money so maybe that's not the best idea anyway.

Pizy 18,897 Posted January 4, 2020 Share Posted January 4, 2020 Zaha on one side, Pulisic on the other. Two crazy good, aggressive dribblers with fantastic pace. Or Zaha + Willian. Or Zaha + CHO. He's a player that requires opposing coaches to plan specifically for similar to how Hazard was for us. He's a massive pain in the ass to deal with as a defender, hence why he's amongst the most fouled players in Europe. That's the sort of weapon I want in the side.
