Ok lads - seems we've missed out again. Golovin on his way to Monaco.

25 Jul 2018 21:16:24
seen that also typical Chelsea in recent years can't sign players and won't give what we got a chance I. e salah and de bryune club has really lost its way in my eyes.

25 Jul 2018 21:18:18
It would've been nice to have him join us but maybe we are targeting other players. Linked with Pogba, Savic and Thiago (can't see any happening) but they're all top players! Besides, we have Barkley and RLC who deserve a chance with us this season.

25 Jul 2018 21:22:12
No one had heard of him b4 world cup
He had a few average games in WC against very average opposition jorginho fabregas kante Barkley rlc ampadu are all better players
Makes me laugh to say we missed out on a player six weeks ago noone as ever heard of.

25 Jul 2018 22:22:54
I’d rather us go for that tielmenans of Monaco.

25 Jul 2018 22:56:06
u hit the nail on the head loko golovin is rubbish.

26 Jul 2018 00:22:47
There was a lot of talk he may have gone straight out on loan. No big loss.

"typical Chelsea in recent years can't sign players and won't give what we got a chance I. e salah and de bryune club has really lost its way in my eyes. "

What do you want them to do then? I said it yesterday, Chelsea are basically a new side under Sarri. Nobody knows what he's going to do with what's already at the club.

Perhaps, Sarri veto'd the Golovin deal in favour of Barkley/ RLC/ Baka/ Odoi?

Basically, we can't have it both ways. We can't buy players AND give what's already there a chance.

26 Jul 2018 11:55:58
We linked to Thiago Pogba and Savic, I would love Savic or any of them and we should be pushing for one of them. Not settling for Fabregas or Barkley. I’m sorry but it’s true.

25 Jul 2018 18:56:13
Looks like golovin going to Monaco.

25 Jul 2018 14:54:41
I am really worried, frankly speaking, most of our rivals have done more business than Us and it's about 2weeks till the end of the transfer window and there's no urgency from Chelsea regarding incoming players. mind you! Liverpool did so well last season and see what they have done in this window but we acting as if we won the league last season.
This is the kinda attitude that makes players like hazard having second thoughts about putting pen to paper.

25 Jul 2018 15:24:06
"Most of our rivals have done more business than Us"

- Arsenal, I'll give you - A couple of decent ins for them, but nothing world class
- City, Mahrez - 1!
- United, Fred, Dalot and Grant - So basically 1 starter
- Spurs - A big fat 0
- Liverpool have added the most quality.

So, I don't get this worry about what other clubs are doing because, by the looks of things MOST of them are as busy as us, and we've only got our manager in a week ago!

25 Jul 2018 16:06:09
I don't blame the club so much for lack of incoming players. I think it's better we bring in a few quality players than a bunch of players (like we did last season) . I also think that the club would like to bring in some quality new players but the lack of players leaving will affect the number players that the club will bring in.

25 Jul 2018 16:08:03
Man City walked the league and don’t need much upgrade if we hadn’t signed sarri thwy would have both marez and Jorginho. liverpool were far better than we lot last season and they Have approached this T. window as if they were trash and mind you I don’t regard spurs and arsenal as our rival for the tittle.

25 Jul 2018 16:26:29
From past history, if we intend to get some decent signings we go all out and get it sorted out but it seems it’s not one of those windows instead it’s looking like those windows where we wait till the last hours of the window and bring in players like baba ranman, drinkwater. I just hope am wrong.

25 Jul 2018 17:03:13
In Conte's first season we signed Luiz and Alonso on deadline day and they did alright that season! I wouldn't panic just yet mate, priority has to be keeping our star players. If we manage that there's no reason why we can't win the league again as these players have done it twice in 4 years and know how to win trophies.

25 Jul 2018 17:46:31
After last seasons performance if someone offered 4th spot for the coming season I would take it now. An ideal window would be hazard signing a new long term deal, bringing in a lightening quick exciting player like Bailey. Didn’t see too much of Emerson but I think left back should be looked at also.
Dream scenario would be icardi or Cavani, Alex Sandro, Milinkovic-Savic and hazards long term deal.
Let’s show hazard that he can achieve what he wants out of the game at Chelsea by buying better calibre of player.

26 Jul 2018 00:59:16
I don’t think we need a LB but if we were to sell Alonso I’d go all out for Grimaldo. Think we need a RB more although I guess Moses is a decent enough back up to Azpilicueta and homegrown.

25 Jul 2018 13:00:30
Saw Ed002 updates on the Man City rumours site. It was helpful and cleared some air for me especially with Leon Bailey.

25 Jul 2018 22:23:34
What did it say Obinna.

25 Jul 2018 12:23:39
New reports about Leon Bailey and some suggesting Milinkovic Savic. I don’t know whether the latter is true but they would be unbelievable signings. Should sell Willian and if we missed the chance then it’s a real loss because 60 million is a steal for a 29 year old. We have to push for bailey and if we can get Milinkovic Savic as well our team would be set (other than striker and goal keeper situation)

25 Jul 2018 13:31:10
Milinkovic Savic's price is high, the only way I see us going for him is if we sold Hazard or Kante. I read he now favours a move to Chelsea since ManUnited have moved back because of his fee. I am guessing ManUnited might want to use the money they get if they sold Pogba to chase his deal.

25 Jul 2018 14:06:35
Or does Chelsea want to blow everyone out of the water by buying Milinkovic Savic without selling either Hazard or Kante?

25 Jul 2018 11:36:21
Looks like Leon Bailey is available and Roma are in the hunt for him, Chelsea be aware!
Chelsea is considering if they should go in for him according to Simon Johnson (of The Standard) .

25 Jul 2018 11:48:49
hed rather chelsea than roma that's a fact his style of play an pace is something we lack.

25 Jul 2018 12:06:26
I am crazy about this guy. Chelsea should buy him even if it means keeping him at Leverkusen on loan for one season (that is if there's no need for him at the moment) OR sell Pedro and bring him in. The opportunity is here- Chelsea have always been interested in him.

25 Jul 2018 12:39:26
Heard he's likes London and he's a fan of Chelsea BUT we know that Chelsea likes to take good players that is their fan for granted. I pray this one won't be like others.

25 Jul 2018 15:39:50
Don't forget - Lukaku reckoned he was a Chelsea fan.
