Toony Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 Good signing, trust Chelsea have a few more in the pipeline as well given the amount of players who are departing/departed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cicero Posted July 15, 2017 Author Share Posted July 15, 2017 Considering a Pogba+Kante partnership looked almost dominate in every sense against England, I'm looking forward to this partnership considering both Pogba and Bakayoko are dynamic players. Happy with this. Chelsea fan as well supposedly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of money to spend, but i prefer no panic buys. We will still be looking for a lwb and a striker Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conte is the type of character to get who and what he wants as well so I don't think you've got anything to be concerned about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Lukaku saga was pretty boring, no clue if the club really failed Conte as we could afford him. Who will we bring as a replacement for Costa is a mystery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't happen last season as well. The board just need to stop lowballing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
6666 Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 Don't know much about him but I guess Matic's time is up. I guess a striker is next on the list for Chelsea but Diego Costa doesn't seem to be off anywhere, would've thought more would be in for him. AC Milan who are after Morata or Aubameyang may look at him as an option after they get priced out of moves for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Asura Posted July 15, 2017 Share Posted July 15, 2017 Great signing for Chelsea I reckon, havent seen a lot of him but whatever little I saw him in Monaco he looked a solid player. He is big and strong too so he could settle well as a strong midfielder in the premier league. Price isnt too bad for a young player who has already played well in champions league in a young team. I fully expect Matic to be sold at 55million by Chelsea, they always get a lot for their players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conte obviously doing a great job of motivating the team. Our only "loss" could be Costa, but Michy is also on fire so far and determined to be a good competitions for Morata.

Morata won't find it easy here if Bats is continuing his form. Should of had a hat trick really as the first goal should have stood. Crazy finish for his 2nd goal. Happy for him as the majority of us, Conte included, didn't trust him. Glad he is proving us wrong as he was sensational. What's really good is that we have so many options now. We can play a 3-4-3 with Hazard/Pedro/Willian on the wings, or switch to a 3-5-2 with Cesc/Hazard in the CAM spot with Morata and Bats up top. Still need a LWB and a CM (If Matic leaves).

True Blue Posted July 23, 2017 Share Posted July 23, 2017 No clue did Conte really changed his mind for Bats, or just has no options to start for the moment? I rated Michy since day one, he wasn't given enough chances. Proved he could do a real job in the final month of the season. Hope he and Morata can work together for the benefit of the team. Boga looked outstanding too, could be a good option to keep. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
