Depending on what happens with our manager and looking at posts on this site, the following could and some say, should happen!
OUTS. INS

Drinkwater/ Bakayoko. Seri/ Van Ginkel
Cesc. RLC
Michy/ Morata Tammy
Zouma
Alonso. Kennedy
Zappacosta. ?
Pedro. Hudson Odoi
Hazard. Bailey/ Ajax winger
Courtois Allison/ Oblak

£350mil ish in. £200mil ish out

I wouldn't be happy to sell players like Hazard, Courtois, Morata, Alonso or Bakayoko but some of guys might be?

Potentially the club could end up with a healthy return on its investments.

Main rule: Go back to 4-3-3 and change.

Sell Courtois - his attitude is toxic I don’t want him here. Oblak if we can as he’s better hopefully a swap although they don’t happen much.

Cahill to leave, Zouma to return. I’d like to see Alderweireld brought in as we lack leaders.

Sell Moses and Zappacosta both not good enough we need to recoup money for them. If we go back to a back four Azpi back to RB. I’d give Sterling his chance in the Europa and league cup that lad is more than ready physically wide it’s just whether he’s good enough.

Only sell Alonso if he wants to leave. He wouldn’t suit a back four but he’d be ok for rotation. Emerson has been impressive.

Fabregas and Drinkwater out. Cesc is quality on his day but his legs have gone. Loan out Baka and give him a chance for his confidence to come back. Loftus-Cheek and Van Ginkel to return. We need a quality box to box CM in hopefully either Milinkovic-Savic or Kovacic.

Sell Pedro, buy Bailey. Sign a left footed right winger to show us how we should play. Like when we had Robben. Hazard, Bailey, Willian and Hudson-Odoi is a fantastic attacking unit.

Morata and Giroud as the strikers unless Morata wants to leave. Maybe give Batman his chance but he doesn’t work hard enough for me.

Frank, I respect your summary and views but your comments about Courtois being toxic baffles me!
The overwhelming reports about Courtois and his supposed desire to leave our club have, in the main, been our press picking up on partial comments made in the Spanish press.
I’m indifferent to him being sold but he is always one of the players to go to the away supporters and when we have put in crap displays he is always one of the players sent out to front up the media.
It is true that his children are based in Madrid and it’s only natural that he would like see them more often.

Miss Wood, my post was meant to reflect the views of my fellow posters and the media but if we replace some of the potential sales with in-house solutions the owner might not have to dip into his pocket.

Courtois should have never been brought back to Chelsea in the first place. I feel the club sacrificed and paid him so much for him to want to leave after 4 seasons (in his prime) - citing family proximity as his reason.

* Letting OUR GREAT, BETTER AND COMMITTED GOALIE (PETER CECH) go to Arsenal- a rival club - all cos of Courtois.
* Paying Courtois top dollar just to keep him happy.

Now he wants to go when the club isn't in a good moment and you see players like Hazard saying, 'I want Courtois to sign an extension before I can commit too to Chelsea'.

I think Courtois knew what he was doing when he decided to come to Chelsea; I feel maybe he just wanted to make some money and go back to Spain. If Courtois doesn't sign a new deal he isn't a good guy.

a bit over the top with the courtois status he's a top keeper cech is about 36 when courtois came back he was 21 or something an cech was 32/ 33 so what do u want the club to do sell some1 for 30 million whos now worth about 70 for a keeper whos worth nothing now due to his age chelsea is a buisness it made sense to keep courtois but he is top keeper an i wouldn't knock the club for making him number 1 an keeping cech. petr cech hasn't stood out or really came back to damage us i don't think the club saw arsenal as a big rival anymore anyway.

Magichandshurley, I like where you said, He's now worth 70mil (cos that's the only advantage that Chelsea could get or he might also be worth way less after his gaffe this season) but let's wait till we see how much he's sold for- this summer or 'better' still he goes for free in 16months time- taking Hazard with him.
My G, it annoys me whichever way I look at it. Why give me sugar, only to take it away when its sweetest in my mouth.
