Their defence is now sorted for the next decade AND they have Koulibaly for right now. Crazy
So the Chavs are going for Gvardiol and we’re sniffing around Dan James.
That’s me for this window.
Guarantee you'll be back
There's zero correlation between the two signings......
James would be nothing more than a 6th choice attacker signed as a placeholder for Gil, FFS!
This is the thing some people on here are completely bowled over just by the result. If that header in the first half v wolves goes in diff story. If the ref gives a foul for the first goal v chavs or Romero hair pull is given as foul play then we’d all be having a different conversation. We let forest cross the ball across our 6 yard box numerous times. We have 7 defensive players but cannot stop the oppo from getting into dangerous situations. V forest there was one bit of play where we diving and blocking a number of shots. It was like watching a team desperately defending and not one in control of the gane. We need to take control with the ball and also snuff out attacks.
This isn't Football Manager.
I just saw a Leeds team destroy a Chelsea side that had Silva, Koulibaly, Cucurella and James in defence..
The state of some people moaning does make you cringe , doesn’t it?
£150m and we end up with Lenglet. 
Errrrr, no; they haven't been.
RWB; yes, but CB, no.
Signing Gvardiol and loaning him back wouldn't help us in the here and now, so would likely still be Lenglet_in.
I mean, we just signed Romero today.
And he's better than any centre back Chelsea have to offer now or future.
God bless Cuti.
In all honesty, I don't think anyone has said there isn't top talent available. We would NEVER sign a player for 90,000,000 who we couldn't play until next year. And we were never going to waste our money on a Leicester centre back who has barely played football since May 2021.
Both of them are risks and that risk nearly amounts to 200,000,000....
If our target is Bastoni but he's only gettable next summer, I'd rather do the Liverpool thing and wait it out.
I rather see him join Man City....so I hope Pep's seen this and immediately called his boss
I've seen plenty of posts saying we've signed Lenglet because the market is poor & we're biding our time for a proper big dick swinging option later down the line.
Maybe you haven't .. I have.
For 80m a pop there is
There is we just don’t have the money. We could probably get Skriniar if we overpaid and threw £80m at him but that’s not how we work:
90 mill euros so what around 80 mill give or take for a 20 yr old centre back who can give chelsea 10 yrs of service, fofana and gvardiol they are building for the future
That header in the first half against Wolves had a 5% chance of going in. Five percent. You think it's a big chance, but it's not. And it's the same with all the other chances we have given up. And if we happen to give up a goal, guess what: we're creating plenty to get back and go on and win, as we did with Soton. Go back and watch these matches again and you tell me if we were ever really bothered. Sure we started slow, but when we decided to play, we were out of sight.
Feels like it - how long must we wait... Son kulu richie Gill perisic sess doc royal spence.... All wide. DMs in Hoj, Bent, sarr, skipp and bissouma. We've loaned out Glc fat Ndombele and winks whove all failed, but surely we can just get one decent attacking MF for games when we need to change shape.
