So the European transfer window has now shut, and we still have Kante and Hazard at our club. At one point this summer it was looking certain we'd lose Hazard.

Courtois was the only big name to leave, and I'm sure we're all happy it was him rather than Kante or Hazard!

Things are looking very promising for the season ahead, we might need to sort ourselves out defensively but I believe that will come the longer Sarri is here.

Now to today's game, Bournemouth have started the season very good and will be one of the toughest opponents we've faced this season imo. They will try and hit us fast on the break, but we should have enough going forward to see them off. A 3-1 Chelsea win is my prediction!

Cmon Chelsea!

People who don't watch Courtois week-in-week-out are shocked when I tell them I don't see him as a big loss. Very commanding on crosses but very weak at facing one-on-ones and positioning - gets beat at his near post far too often.

Ever the optimist, so a. Comfortable 4-0 win for me Bobby.

J I’m in your camp on this one, I’m not overly upset at losing courtoise. Only worry is new boy has had an average start. Thought he could have had a couple of the ones he conceded but it takes time to settle.
Only concern he keeps sticking with Luiz.
