I still sceptic that we can challange europe next season with our current squad. Our squad dept not that good and not consistent.we need to take into account that fab is a half season player and so do oscar.imagine both not consistent that time with CL and PL busy schedule plus with strikers injury crisis...wow that can put us in deep shit

If Mou places his trust in Romeu and MVG then yea, we dun nid any more players for pivot. But given both of their injury record, Mou might not take the gamble. If I'm not mistaken, Newcastle wants MVG on loan.

The most ideal.
adding benteke and griezmann.
Promoting troare, bamford and rlc.

Whoever take Mikel slot wont see much action.
I hope rlc would be given chances.
Romeu could leave if there is no slot for him in the squad.
he said he dun wan another loan and would see how it goes in the pre seasons.
mvg not sure though.

apparently we in the race for Sterling.. but not going to bid above 40m.

Id say 35 mil max....if city desperate for him we will not get him

Still when we want to sign any player at all, there is none of the "big player" willing to play as a 2nd fiddle to anyone.. See, if we sign anymore big name at AM position, it will make oscar become upset and might hand in a transfer request later.. The best possible thing to do now is to utilise our youth ( who does't mind being on bench) or release a player before we sign anybody to replace his position..

Need to remember that we do have enough player to compete with any competition, it just the matter of whether JM trust them enough to put them on the field or not..

Were in 4 cup competition im sure even bit part player like mikel clock up at least 25-28 appearances last season...more than enough for our rlc to get used to epl

no need to bid, can get him for free next season, just need to sign "pre" contract

Man City bidding 50milli iinm. I think they purposely wanna kena FFP again so dont need register so many players and so many HG again. FFP fine small bump only.

not just depth, we have lost the spine of the team as well. those experienced player that can bring huge motivation in the dressing room. The likes of JT, Drogba and Cech. Lucky we still have JT. On top of that, can the players deliver top notch performance week in week out. We've seen how they played when they're on song, we're also have seen when they're not.

personally, i still think we're still distance away from be in the semi finalist in UCL for next season with current crop of players. Unless, JM can pull out a miracle and bring the best out of Oscar, Willian and other academy players.

Talking bout our spine. So now our spine players are Courtois, JT, Matic/Fab (?), Costa. During the 1st Mou season, our spine is Cech, JT, Lamp, Drog. So now midfield who is spine? Matic or Fab?

about time that we prepare the next generation of leaders..player like Cesc, Matic, Azpi, and Hazard all lead by examples.

I think we are more than capable to deal with UCL..It is a very weird competition..you dont need the best squad to win the trophy. I expect more from Oscar next season..and for Willian just keep improving.

as for now, Kotua, JT, Matic and Costa

but without JT, I will put Azpi in his place.

Daily Mirror said chelsea could use oscar to bait pogba

Seems like Douglas Costa is heading to Bayern for 35M.

Witsel in talks with AC Milan. So Song it is for us?

Btw ChelseaFansTV said Atletico wants Luis and Salah for Griezmann and Arda. I'm ok with Griezmann, but not with Arda. Still rmb he threw the shoe at linesman. kek. Imagine he do that in PL. U guys noe la, how much FA 'likes' us. Sure ban Arda for 3 games.

Oscar is in Juve's masterplan..so yeah he will be a good bait if we really going for Pogba..but I'm not really keen on him with that pricetag

same here, Arda Turan already 28..I prefer Luis and Salah for cheaper GMan.

Luis + Salah for Griezmann. Atletico gets 2 player with 1 player.

And we get to proceed with Rahman!

not with the price they trying to lowball us with.

2 years left on Sterling's contract

lol. i thought we were signing Douglas Costa since last season. seems like Bayern is signing Douglas Costa
