Actually I am pretty happy with our squad now, we have good mix of homegrown, talent and experience. We should just sign player only if we have sold someone. TIMO is bought in as our main striker but we know that it will not work all the time especially against team setup defensively coming for a draw. GIROUD is best target man for these low block team. Then we have TAMMY the youngest striker, style is between the other two striker and i think is a perfect opportunity for him to learn while getting some game time. I hope he able to grown to a proper target man and replace GIROUD later, i have always prefer a DROGBA style rather than TORRES style striker.

We have to thanks the transfer ban and LAMPARD for promoting homegrown in the team that we always complain before. Without transfer ban we might not have seen MOUNT, REECE, AC, ZOUMA, BILLY, TAMMY, CHO playing for CHELSEA.

Until now i still dont understand what is the hype of TORRES goal against BARCA ? The RAMIRES chip goal that will make us go through with aggregate is even better than TORRES goal.

And that game with BARCA is not even great compare to the NAPOLI comeback win.

IMO the truly legendary goal that win us the CL should be the DROGBA last minute equalizer against BAYERN, what a header

This superleague very bad for for the football pyramid. They just want the money, pulling all the biggest club by fanbase but not the best football team at the moment. They forgot how football become the biggest sport is also because all the effort in grassroot development. Now because they dont want to share the revenue helping the lower division they form a league to distribute the money only among themselves. The reason why RM and BARCA get so big in laliga is because they get to nego their own broadcast deal, they prevent money distributed down the league thus with their financial power, other in the league they cant compete. Luckily premier league dont follow this model that is why is the most competitive and best league in the world now (also thanks to it broadcast timezone).

The 15 founding member will not be relegated that is even more bullshit, imagine those founding team playing in the bottom of the superleague just be there for the money ? They at least need to come out with proper relegation and promotion rules but that will be impossible if the football association are not supporting them.

Any real football fans will have to go against it. No matter how u see it, this is not good for football, what is the point see CHELSEA or any other founding team competing year after year in mid or lower table of the superleague every year without have to worry getting relegated ? Trust me at first is refreshing but it will be dead very soon if they dont get the football association and grass root support. Imaging CHELSEA get ban from all other league and only play for superleague and every year compete at midtable for the sake of money ? Currently if u are not a big club but there is still something to compete on eg. FA cup, League Cup, Champion League, Europa League to win, even premier league top4 and promotion is a big fight now.

I want to see football base on the football merit itself, not because how big the team fanbase is. I want to see LEICESTER win premier league because they play better football, who cares even they are not big club. LEICESTER from a lower league team now try cementing their place as new top6 team by their football not fanbase, that how all football club started and slowly become big club. By forming this superleague to protect current big club, chances to see a LEICESTER will be very slim in the future and why want to form a group protecting the club that arent able to compete in football itself.

ARSENAL, AC MILAN, INTER they are big club but they will fall if they dont play the best football. The only way to regain their place is by their football like INTER doing with CONTE now, not by their number of fanbase.

Say liao how many times TORRES goal against BARCA is just overhype. We are through anyway with RAMIRES away goal.

I am happy with TIMO contribution to the team so far. But as number 9 the goal is really lacking. But with the number of chances he have each game i not so worry. He will finish some for sure. But i think we will have a new striker next season as TUCHEL dont seem to fancy target man type therefore TAMMY could be sold or just a backup 3rd striker. I kinda like the idea of getting AGUERO rather than spent crazy money.

LUKAKU - I believe he join CHELSEA too early on the first time. I guess he just could not resist being a CHELSEA fans and DROGBA is his idol when the first calling. He basically playing champion league football every year with ANDERLECHT before join us as backup player. I dont mind him return if CHELSEA still in his heart but i dont think he suit TUCHEL style. I believe TUCHEL prefer a more mobile CF.


HAALAND - Is either we get him now, else i dont think we stand a chance when his 60m release clause kick in next season. By that time, many club will be paying the release fee and he (his agent) will able to choose the biggest paycheck. Did no see him play live, but from the goal he score in utube, is kinda similar to TIMO before he join us, he might not be so prolific in EPL when team just defense deep. I think he suit TUCHEL style most being mobile and able to run at defender and also CHELSEA board profile being young, huge prospect, can command high price when BARCA/REAL come calling


KANE - Being a TOT academy product it might be hard for him to join direct london rival club, but that also means his family does not need to move if he join us. But i think MANC will be his most likely destination. But of the 3, he might be the safest bet that can guarantee CHELSEA goal in EPL. He is close to the prime DROGBA we once have, where he can score goal and provide assist.
