But they don't need to rush except that bed wetters on social media are crying for them to do something. And in fairness they don't usually botch up. Think they've been more good than bad . Relax, if you think about it very little has been done by other teams. All happen soon

Get with the programe, ill help you a bit

OMG.... LOL.... WE'RE AN EMBARRASSMENT.... GET RID OF ROMAN....ALL OUR PLAYERS ARE RUBBISH... EVERYONE ELSE'S ARE AMAZEBALLS.....IF WE DON'T SIGN AT LEAST 7 WORLD CLASS PLAYERS BUT ALSO PLAY ALL OUR YOUNG PLAYERS TOO THEN   I'M RIPPING UP MY SEASON TICKET 

[akgw13 867]

Simon Phillips on twitter quoted mediaset that a potential price of 11m Euros which would include Raul Albiol is in the works. Apparently Sarri asked for this player and his release clause is 6m Euro which puts the fee at 5m Euro.

I used Potential and Apparently to underline this is a twitter rumour.

 

I don't really care for Albiol but if Sarri says he wants him 6m is a laughably small sum in todays market for a piece he requests. 

 

This is a new rumour ive never heard, id expect the final deal to be something along these lines. A player + Sarri release for a fee.

The funny thing is similar things were said before the start of Jose last season. No much happening.. People told to calm and someone joked we'd end up going down or near the bottom.... Then lo and behold we did up in near the bottom for a bit. Since then do think hmmm maybe the panic is for a reason... And other times not. More to do with we're slow in the window and this time we ain't got as much time to mess things up. Hopefully.. This time all smooth 

Once this is sorted that is

Sounds about right. Hes only 32!  Much better buy than KK.

It's one thing to be concerned and show it in a constructive manner (like your doing), it's another when the club starts getting slagged off in ways i'd expect to see on Spurs forums.

Raul Albiol  - 32 years ? What's wrong in this club

Chelsea Football Club -  collect the garbage

I wouldn't be against this. Albiol is far from a world beater but the likelihood is that if Luiz leaves and Azpilicueta reverts back to full back, we probably need an extra centre back. We are still well stacked at the back with Rudiger, Christensen and Cahill too, and we need to be spending good money in other areas of the pitch so I'd rather be spending £5-6m on a squad signing then £30-40m like Savic would probably end up being. 

The other thing to consider is that if Sarri comes in, our style will change massively and as a result will take some time for adjustment. Having somebody come in who has worked with him and can be trusted for the short term makes sense. Especially as he demands his defenders play the ball out of pressure, having a player already drilled in this way will hopefully help the rest of the defence to adapt quicker.

[milka 3,362]

Just keep Conte and buy class players -  Chelsea board !

[11Drogba 2,000]

Obviously Sarri tactically prepares his teams well. My concern is whether he can adapt to the higher tempo of Premier League. Guardiola, Poch and Klopp pay great attention to fitness and nutrition. I hope Sarri does the same, but these rumors about Albiol and Higuain are a bit worrying. I would like us to go for younger and more athletic players.

[Pizy 18,538]

Fuck Albiol. The Bayern boss has come out today and said Boateng is available for the right price. When fit he's great and is best mates with Rüdiger already and comfortable playing with him I'd imagine. If we are actually after another CB he should be the main target since Koulibaly is not obtainable.

At 32 he actually doesn't look like a bad player neither. Still seems fit enough to get far enough forward to score some headers.

He would probably be the easiest to get from ADL and Ancelottis clutches. Tho I'd prefer him to bring others instead of him.

He is 33 in September btw.

How is keeping Conte going to be a good thing? He acted immature throughout the season, constantly complaining, subliminally criticising his players and looked unmotivated and undeterred when we were struggling and needed inspiration. If we got Conte back from his first year here then i would be open to giving him another chance.

But he doesn't want to be at Chelsea, it's clear to see, and his primary motivation now is to be paid maximum by the club to walk. If we kept him, can we seriously risk the same Conte we have had this year leading the team and improving on last year's results? I'm not convinced.
