I'm told Courtois has been dropped by Zidane.

If true. I love it.

This transfer ban couldn’t have come st a worse time imo
I am very fearful of losing hazard but whatever happens he is a Chelsea legend and is absolutely unreal in terms of football ability. But if we do lose him I’d love to sign Pepe but we can’t!
Up top I would love Icardi but unlikely so I’d also love Jovic. Why can’t this ban come one window later 😫😫
But for the future we really should be looking st our squad and the age of it. Let Willian go along with Barkley Giroud and player sluke Morata Batshuayi and Bakayoko and well have enough room to improve with younger talents. I’d have Jovic and Pepe I’m within an instance, move rlc up to the first team and look to sign a new CB. Also I really like the look of Chilwell and he’ll be excellent in the future.

I think the ban will be lifted for the next window but I don’t think we will sign more than three players anyway!

Agreed TomB - I can't imagine that we would buy more than 2 'big' signings in any circumstance and perhaps a player in exchange for Hazard. To be honest, I am ambivalent whether the ban is imposed or not - if not, it will force us to seriously consider a few youngsters - Aina, James, Abraham, Ampudu, Dasilva, Tomori, Chalobah, Sterling, even Bakayoko, Batshuiyi, and Zouma.

I think we could do with a cerntre half a and a replacement for what we lose. So that would likely be Kova / Hazard for sure plus maybe Willian / Pedro / CHO / Alonso / Zappa.

If not I think we'll struggle next year.

But it's exciting to watch a few players with potential like RLC / CHO / Pulisic.

I’d be happy for us to do that mdw it’s the only way we’ll ever no if they’re good enough training around the first team and getting game time.

Read an article today on how much Luka Jovic likes Chelsea and he is going going to be the next world class striker on the scene I think he's so complete for his age. If we can get the ban uplifted we need to make him our priority. Barcelona are circling also.

Same with Nicolas Pepe at Lille he's openly in the past expressed his desire to play for Chelsea and he also is on the way to become one of the next best wingers. If Hazard leaves we need to get him.

If we had Jovic and Tammy as our options up top next year I'd be over the moon. For wingers if we could sign Pepe we would have him, Hudson-Odoi, Pulisic and Pedro. Pedro is a good fourth option and the other three are young with massive pedigree's who could all rotate. Especially with Loftus-Cheek behind if he gets fully fit we could easily become a better team without Hazard. We're too dependant on him to move forward. With CHO and Pepe we wouldn't have wingers as talented as Eden but they would also add goals but more importantly directness and running behind which none of Hazard and Willian do enough. If we went into next season with a front three of Pepe, Jovic and Hudson-Odoi next year we could build for years.

Many of us don't seem to rate Pulisic as much as CHO but imo, Pulisic is better at this time than CHO and will surprise many when he finally joins.
It's a good thing he's not under so much media spotlight. Will help him in settling in easily.
