Yep, some people were saying that Chelsea can not sign player like Auba, because we already have Morata and we can not have 2 expensive strikers And even Arsenal, who bought Lacazette this summer, are now adding amazing player like Auba. Just pathetic. I am just not sure which shows more lack of ambition, going to some team in China, or going to Arsenal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does anyone know? I don’t really delve into the off-field stuff and if I do it’s a quick skim over the occasional article. Is it the new stadium or have we completely changed our whole approach? I really don’t mind what path we take, I will be here no matter what, but I wish the club would communicate more with the fan base. It would be great having some insight into what our long-term strategy is. On top of that, some form of communication may help temper expectations and reduce feelings of frustration throughout transfer windows.

I think it's to do with the £1B stadium it's not going to pay for it's self the Manchester clubs don't need a new stadium that's one the reasons they are stronger than Chelsea in the transfer market Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On top of that, some form of communication may help temper expectations and reduce feelings of frustration throughout transfer windows.I think it has a lot to do with the stadium (1bn isn't a joke), plus the fact that new rich and state owned clubs have driven up the prices and wages so quickly that our natural financial progression can't keep up. Our financial situation is probably stuck in times when you could buy the best players for 30-50mill only a few years ago, those same players would go for 100m these days. It's a hell of a upward spike in a very short time and with 1bn reserved for the stadium, i am not at all surprised.Sent from my Nexus 5X using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Armour 4,439 Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 (edited) I remember Chelsea seemingly being his first choice over Arsenal before he moved to England. Even posing in blue (or was it his car) when hinting at his next club. 3 years too late, but let's hope he can bring it.

DDA 9,941 Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 Annoying he can't start straight away. Glad to see a striker come through the door... not sure if this guy is going to hit the heights of his previous spell under TT but fingers crossed.

Reddish-Blue 2,506 Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 Hopefully he plays a similar role to Giroud for us, feel like he'll link up well with Sterling. I hope he can bring a bit of confidence back to Pulisic as well, he showed patches of what he can do in that free role behind the striker at the back end of last season.  Will be interesting to see how the manager uses him & Havertz together once he recovers from his jaw injury. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
