Very disappointed to realise CFC were one of the clubs to agree to the Transfer Window being shut three weeks before the rest of Europe. I believe this will mean English clubs paying over the odds for players who otherwise might be tempted to wait until the rest of Europe closes. What do you guys think about this?

Stupid decision.


2.) 09 Sep 2017 11:44:27
I love Conte's response as regards this issue.
I also like it when our transfer businesses are concluded on time (on or before the club's preseason tour) .

Great idea, I'd only be worried being a selling club. Forces club to identify targets and act quicker,

I’m not sure but I think we can post about most football matters as Chelsea supporters we can have views on other subjects and teams.

Can't wait for match tonight hope the ladies do us proud tough game
But to be world cup winners would be amazing come on my mighty england.


5.) 19 Aug 2023 11:49:04
gola, I assume you have permission to bring up a non Chelsea topic on this site? haha!

Anyway, come on England.


6.) 19 Aug 2023 18:36:53
The reason I posted lol he's so anti English makes me laugh but it's OK to support a English team
Living in Belfast makes it easier as 50 % of population hate England but all support English teams mainly utd and Liverpool all so stup9d really.


7.) 19 Aug 2023 19:59:23
gola, as far as I know you haven’t constantly been accused of being a “bigot”?

Does my head in but I suppose it’s just an opinion!


8.) 19 Aug 2023 23:39:22
Just to clarify for ilo, Jess Carter plays for Chelsea as well as England.

Press talk is of Man City looking to buy Gvardiol. Weren't we interested in him a way back, and why did this interest cease?

Dempsey

1.) 10 Jun 2023 13:56:15
We were and continue to be interested. Ed002 has explained he is incredibly expensive and that Man City also have an interest.

{Ed002's Note - And others.}

Thanks Ian.

All this talk about the need for a striker - does anyone reflect that given a good run in the team, Broja could fit the bill?

Dempsey

1.) 02 May 2023 11:09:40
Broja needs a loan move next season (that’s if Chelsea still sees a future with him) - I read Sporting Lisbon is interested in him, that would be a good move for Broja if there’ll game time assurance.

There’s no gambling on players next season, we have to get back to who we are (top) - that means using players that we are sure of their ability.


2.) 02 May 2023 12:02:16
Totally agree Dempsey, unless he is given a chance we will never know, the same goes for David Fofana as well. If we want a proven premier league striker we also one in Lukaku. Please, no more spending just for the sake of it, unless of course a worldy becomes available like Kane.


3.) 02 May 2023 14:40:02
Every world class players available at right price g8,
But I did think the new direction of club would be to get these players in before There value sky rockets, but the questions are, 1) has Broja played enough football in 2 years to be ready to lead the line 2) is that an experiment we can try after the potter experiment, 3) could poch be the one to get lukaku playing and scoring.


4.) 02 May 2023 17:22:11
Great point Martin. I’m sick to the back teeth of the loan system, the boys seldom come back. If they are a mile off it, yes. But if they have been involved on PL duty they need to stay in the group flushing out their mistakes and Building their belief. If the set up was correct Broja would have been shadowing Lukaku or whoever held the No 9 jersey at training for the past 12 months. Watching, listening and learning, when to run, when to hold, when to spin, when to release, where to be at set plays, basically being the No 2, and importantly being on the bench every PL game. Bring a Chelsea player!


5.) 02 May 2023 19:18:20
If we don’t buy, porch will bring back lukaku, he will useless again, he’ll get dropped and Borja will play. Then guess what lukaku will sulk and course a rift in the club. Sod that.


6.) 02 May 2023 19:36:33
Unlike some I didn’t want us to sign Lukaku but when we did I supported him as I believed TT would have had some input in his signing and therefore I hoped TT would also play to his strengths. That just didn’t happen.

If Poch does become our managers and if we do bring back Lukaku I will hope that Poch understands what is needed to get the best out of him.

Although I’m not a fan of the player, I can understand how he became disillusioned and frustrated.

Just a footnote to the US pre-season tour last year, whilst I understand the players weren't happy about the travelling, the heat, the time zones etc, spare a thought for fans like myself who spent an absolute fortune on a once-in-a-lifetime trip (am now skint for the rest of my life! ) and witnessed seriously sub-standard football. Ho hum - it was a trip I'll never forget.

Dempsey, blimey mate. I think I’m envious!


2.) 30 Mar 2023 22:36:26
These Last few years have been same still no better ? will be there again next season.

Not a season ticket holder or official member, just a Blue for nearly 60 years - is there an organised fan tour for the pre-seasons in the States?

Dempsey

1.) 13 Jun 2022 12:16:30
They used to be very good using its preferred agent for travel. Not sure what the latest will be but I would give the ticket office a call or just send a general email enquiry. Dempsey!

In some ways, whilst I am glad this would mean solving the problem of Lukaku, I would be disapointed that, after his showing in the pre-season games, Jackson would then be pushed down the order - and where would that leave Broja?

Not too sure - spends most of his time running about like a headless chicken and I'm baffled as to how he doesn't get booked more often with some reckless challenges.

What? Can us fans do as United fans did and block this deeply disturbing transfer, if there is substance behind the rumour?

Agreed TomB - why bring Trippier on at that scoreline when he needed to give Chilwell some minutes?

Have I got this all wrong, but all this talk of the window closing on Monday, is this not just for international transactions? If we were to go for Rice, haven't we got another couple of weeks?

The original question was UNDER-RATED. How can the likes of Dan, Carvalho, Willian, Eider and (presumably Ian) Hutchinson be considered under-rated?

A massive apology is due from me. In the last transfer window, I stated that I wouldn't be too bothered if Gallagher left as he "rushes about like a hot-head and am surprised he doesn't get booked more". I take this all back - he has developed into a very effective and important player - I apologise to Connor!

Tom B - fully endorse the query about CTV; boy do I miss the coverage we used to get through this medium.

Good article on BBC web by Jermain Jenas saying that all Jackson needs is good instruction from a proven goalscorer and suggests Jimmy Floyd could be our attack coach. Any thoughts?
