LWB: Sandro
RWB: Candreva
CB: Van Dijk
CM: Drinkwater
ST: ?

I think these will be our first targets for each position.

Ed already confirmed we want a Young striker so that rules Llorente out.

Agree1 Disagree1

10 Aug 2017 07:33:12
RWB: Cancelo
LWB: Rose
CM: Drinkwater
AM: Sanchez (We need someone to take the pressure off Hazard)

If things continue the way they are, it's going to be one hell of a deadline day.

With us in need of CM and rumours coming out Nzonzi wants to leave Sevilla it's going to be even more painful when we bypas him and sign someone else, what a player he is, suit us downto the ground,

Believable0 Unbelievable1

{Ed001's Note - isn't he a bit too similar to Bakayoko for there to be a need for him?}

09 Aug 2017 19:54:02
Conte wanted matic and bakyoko apparently so wouldn't be worse case, plus bakyoko apparently bombs forward going past players ( like yaya ) n zonzi is top draw on the ball and tactically spot on, but I'm assuming no interest lol not as if I got my hopes up or anything 😞.

paper talk but there is a lot of talk saying we have made a 25mil bid for Ox.

Believable0 Unbelievable0

Think I've seen over the last 12 hours at least 6 'sources' claim we've had bids for Rose, Cancelo, Barley, Drinkwater and enquiring about Dembele I would pay no heed to it. It seems to be clickbait week with the league starting again.

Hey, guys. Is there anyone that can help me? I've seen conflicting reports about Pedro. Some claim he'll be suspended for his red card on Sunday, while others say he won't be.
Will Pedro be allowed to play this weekend?

Believable0 Unbelievable0

{Ed001's Note - try this mate: FA list of suspended players it is worth keeping an eye on as it is updated very regularly.}

09 Aug 2017 09:23:28
Weird. Pedro is classified as a non-first team player and is suspended for 3 games I think. With Eden out and Pedro suspended, we're in for a difficult start to the season.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed001's Note - it might be a non-first team match ie not a competitive game, rather than him being classed as a non-first team player. It is after all a preseason friendly.}

09 Aug 2017 09:36:05
thanks Ed001. 🖒

@ Jackson - only moses mate.

Agree0 Disagree0

{Ed001's Note - welcome mate.}

09 Aug 2017 09:59:43
Ah thanks, Wheely and Ed001. Hopefully he can indeed play :-)

no probs buddy!

I thought that any cards in the Community Shield match did not count? Or that is what the commentators were saying on Sunday.

Agree0 Disagree0

09 Aug 2017 08:37:10
Selling Matic before Bakayoko was fit or have another replacement ready was plainly stupid.

Believable5 Unbelievable4

09 Aug 2017 10:21:04
Yes, Conte have said everything in his last comment about Matic.

Agree3 Disagree1

09 Aug 2017 12:45:37
What did he say?

Agree0 Disagree0

09 Aug 2017 13:07:28
Said he wanted bakyoko to be behind matic and adapt to league but now bakyoko jas to adapt fast, and we need another cm as only have 3.

Agree1 Disagree1

09 Aug 2017 14:20:15
He said that Chelsea has lost top player (exact words) and that he never wanted Matic to leave the club. And that represents big loss for Chelsea.

Agree3 Disagree1

Having someone like lemar would make great sense with morata Ariel ability, plus one over arsenal, shake not interested, conte clearly happy with wingers is only looking for back up,

Believable2 Unbelievable2

'Thomas Lemar or Ousmane Dembele or Keita Balde Diao (on the wings) '- is/ are my dream attacking midfield canditates. One or two of those three in our attack- THEN WE ARE BROWN SUGAR.

Watch out for one of those 3 in the nearest future.

Agree0 Disagree0

09 Aug 2017 14:24:14
We need a quality right winger, Willian just doesn't do it for me, he's inconsistent. I'm surprised we haven't gone for Alexis Sanchez or Lemar.

Agree0 Disagree0

09 Aug 2017 14:37:59
Keita balde too was linked with move and really really cheap,
