I read somewhere today that Cfc have sold over £100m worth of players in the last 8 years all of which have played under 10 games for Chelsea.

That's what Chelsea's academy is all about, maybe get 1 or 2 break into first team but most are just trained up to a standard where they can sell them on for good money to fund getting better players for our first team.

exactly the same as real madrids academy, i watched a programme on madrid and there is about 20 players playing in la liga who at 1 point was playing for madrids youth team, i can't remember every player but they had a few who were pretty good like juan mata, they said that players must be amazing if they want to play or they get sold for profit.

So it seems quite likely that Sandro, Rudiger, Bakayoko and Lukaku might join us. And possibly early in the window. (I realise that this is a leap of faith)
I personally think that might leave us short up front and RB, but otherwise (assuming we hold on to Willian) pretty well prepared for next season.
Plus Conte will have a full summer rather than what he had last year.
Would everyone else agree or not?

But will you be happy with that magic?
Relative to last summer I think it's a blinder.

Several reports say Conte wants everyone in situ by the 18th July so he has full preparation time which would be perfect. However, I am not sold at all on Christensen and I do not think Lukaku is a Conte choice or his type of forward.

Sounds like a good plan. Let's hope.
Who would you rather than Lukaku? I agree in a way, but he clearly is a Chelsea fan so I hope he works out.
I think ed002 has mentioned a number of times that Christiansen might not be with us next season. I've personally not seen enough, and he's a questionable character apparently.

U hardly ever seen christianson unless u love in germany man cause der never on tv . i would be happy with rudiger christianson bakayoko. would also like another attacking option and a striker not lukaku . and i agree lukaku is not a conte player he doesn't work hard he's way to lazy no way conte wants him. he's an upstairs signing something that football shpuldnt do they should back managers to sign who they want not sign people the board like.

Lukaku to CFC might happen, I think it's 50-50 chance.
Man utd also hold interest in player.
Man utd will offer more money to everton than us. Means a bidding war for Lukaku.
He is a CFC fan, hope that will help us in getting player. Fingers crossed.

He feels he has a point to prove but I doubt he is a Chelsea fan anymore than any other that will pay him a lot of money. I would take Morata every day of the week over Lukaku.
