I hope they drop the interest for good. ETH should give himself brain with this Mount obsession.

You guys are still in the race.

Oasis007:
United should walk away from that nonsense Mount deal. Thank you Chelsea for rejecting the 3rd bid.

You guys either pay 65m pounds or leave it, Newcastle already bidding 70m pounds for him.

omotola90:
casimero, erikssen and Mr fred is there for united....as for mancity,i dont think pep fancies him as such...

Man city already have midfielders suited to their playing style, they are not that desperate to go for a 90m pounds midfielder.

Chelsea will sign Mane.

BlueMann:
Callum Hudson-Odoi to Strasbourg, here we go!

Full agreement reached between all parties, Strasbourg set to pay €60m in four installments, Hudson-Odoi joins on a four year deal worth €6m per year.

Medicals scheduled for this weekend in France. Official announcement to come soon after.

Chelsea owner bought the club.

ChristineC:
if you purchase a Corolla for £1m, is that a guarantee you'd win on the tracks against a Porsche 911 or that you'd get better resale value when you decide to dispose of?

Bruv your illustration is not correlating to the discuss, who is corrolla here and who is Porsche?

odizeey:
Una no spend money last season?

Spending is not the bone of contention here but ability to sell when they are not performing. Man U are unable to sell low performance players unlike Chelsea. I know your club more than you and I know your problem from onset. I started following epl late 90s.

Lana1:
If we ask you to back up this talk with facts and figures, you'll come and remind us english is not ur first language.

Prior to this past winter signing your net spend was higher. You will become first again after this summer.

Gambit001:
Did Bruno tell you he's tired?
We have young talented midfielders that if given the playing time of Fred should improve and develop more into the men's game. And mount is nothing like Erikson or Fdj or the pastor. Don't forget.

Mount is something like Bruno is what I am letting you know. Fred is poor with the ball, though energetic, you still need another player in that position.

ChristineC:
that's not the point.

The point is they are spending but no consistent performance on field and not making anything during sale.

Gambit001:

There's Bruno, Garnacho, Casemiro, Martinez, Antony. Even Fred is tenacious , it's obvious we don't lack it. We need a partner in that double pivot with Case, but it's obvious eth is going to make changes this coming season probably to a 433.

Bruno is playing too much of games so his minute will be shared next season with Mount. Fred is not good enough in that position(box to box/CM) and Erickson is old plus his health, he has to be managed (Kanu situation at Arsenal).

ChristineC:
that's a part of what United pass through. not many teams can survive owners and a board whose major interest is subtly laundering cash... and we still don't fight relegation.

Glazers have spent more than everyone since 2013 though.

Gambit001:
I don't still get what eth sees in mount. On the bright side it shows that Chelsea could sell for 50m if we play our cards right, considering the fact that chelsea bought Sterling for that approximate amount I'm okay.

Eth is paying for his tenacity, your team lack that, except Casemiro and Lisandro Martinez. If use properly Mount will turn out one of your important player.

Gambit001:
Understand Manchester United will bid again for Mason Mount. Personal terms are 100% agreed and sealed. 🚨🔴 #MUFC

Mount plans not to sign new deal at Chelsea.

Man Utd want quick resolution — and won’t make ‘crazy’ bids.

Chelsea now flexible; £60/65m enough to get it done.

_Fabrizio Romano

65m for an academy player that won ucl for us is a big win for Chelsea.

ChristineC:
how much did Chelsea sign Fofana?

And if he don’t perform this coming season he will be sold for a reasonable fee unlike Maguire, jones, and the rest who the board are finding it difficult to sell.

ChristineC:
you have good players to sell and battled relegation?

The thing is chelsea problem last season was a psychological thing due to the controversial sale down to Tuchel and then to
the players getting injured and who are being sold now. Remember this guys won ucl( the most prestigious trophy in Europe) three seasons ago with a lot of finals and other cups so they are still valued even with the poor form last season. Unlike most Man U players that have been playing poorly for seasons now bar last season so they are mostly not marketable and not valued by most clubs. Imagine Pogba went for free for the second time to Juve. Jones have being there for ages doing nothing and receiving salary, maguire is a poor footballer that if not for British passport he won’t even cost 10m while at Leicester but only Man U can pay 80m for a player like that. If Man U see English player their prick go stand thinking because it worked for Ferguson it will this time. British players strength is tenacity but the ones you guys now buy or have lack that; e.g, Rashford, sancho and maguire. There is a reason ETH want mount badly(tenacity) which most of your attacking players lack bar maybe Bruno.

Greatihex:
a very dumb move. The dumbest that I have ever seen. And some people are celebrating it.

Only Kante pain me but even at that his wage is too high to be getting injured all the time.

Emaprince:
Wait. RLC is still in chelsea?

English quota system.

Greatihex:
Chelsea now strengthening their rivals. Yet you will be celebrating signings. When we finish 10th again you will start blaming the new signings again and start using them to further strengthen your rival.

We needed this clear out, they had no soul og playing, the ones that are good are always injured. I’m happy that Havertz moved to Arsenal, it’s good for his development.

BlueAngel444:
2021 Chelsea first XI under Tuchel (sacked)
Mendy (sold)
Cesar(old) Silva(old) Rudiger(gone)
James (⭐) Kante(gone) Jorginho/Kovacic (sold) Chilwell(⭐)

Mount/Pulisic(soon 2b sold) Havertz/Abraham(sold) Werner/Ziyech(sold)


Na only James and Chilwell remain, if they don't stay fit 2023/24 them fit sell them.

Its good they are being sold, their inconsistency, injuries was too much, no top club can progress with that.

Trevor012:
Hensben shut up your mouth. When you were crying on our thread about Lukaku you didn't remember he was not a quality player. Yeye dey smell 😂😂

When did I cry about Lukaku. I’ve always say I don’t like his style of football that it’s for mid table or slow team/league. When the board went ahead to sign I had to be optimistic since he was already my player it doesn’t mean I fancy him.

andrewbaba44:
I don’t Stan lukaku

He gets too much Criticism from your fan base because you paid 100 million for him while being your top scorer ,yet you all protect players like harvetz because of ucl final goal tax

Even Messi and Ronaldo Dey collect sub at times ,so calm down

And lukaku has scored more premier league goals than drogba ,it’s just a fact and nothing more

Fact but he is not a quality player and can’t lace Drogba’s boot, so you see stats is deceiving, that’s my point.

andrewbaba44:
A 4-2-3-1 with carrick pairing Gerard won’t have been bad and lampard behind the number 9

We are saying same thing; 4231 or 433 formation would’ve worked knowing that with both formation Lampard will still arrive at the box to score while Gerard press better without the ball to help Carrick more.

andrewbaba44:
Maybe to set it up to suit Gerard ans lampard

England managers and their set ups sha ,South Gate don copy pep Dey play arnold for midfield

Even gareth Barry was more regular for the national team than carrick ,not taking anything away from Barry though

Michael carrick is one of the most underrated English player out there

Playing Gerrard and Lampard as 8s wasn’t bad but they got it wrong with in CDM position which Carrick was more suited than Barry or Hagreeves.

andrewbaba44:
Lakaka collect your sub

Everyone knows Lukaku is not good but you were arguing with me the other day and even calling Drogba’s name. Stanning nor Dey allow some of una Dey think logically.

BlueAngel444:
Let's count our chicks before they hatch

Havertz to Arsenal 70m
Mendy, Ziyech, Koulibaly to Saudi 100m
Kovacic to Man City 40m
Mount to Man United 60m
Gallagher to somewhere 70m
Pulisic to somewhere 30m
Chalobah and Odoi 50m
Lukaku to inter 60m

480m

Dey play.

andrewbaba44:
Why should people not rate lukaku ?

Yes he isn’t your type of striker but you shouldn’t be asking why people rates him

Lukaku have scored more premier league goals than drogba with lesser games while playing for westbrom Everton and co

Lukaku is a poor footballer I don’t give a damn about his goal scoring. The way he play is annoying. Drogba is too much for him in terms of individual awards or clutch moment. You saw how he was wasting chances and even blocking his team mate goal in ucl final, that can never be Drogba. I don’t rate a striker that score meaningless goals and gone missing all the time when needed most, that’s how you know he is not a top player, he easily fall under pressure. Lukaku is always useless in crucial games, the definition of chokeslam.

nateevs:
See this guy.

At Chelsea, Lukaku's after-tax YTD earnings on his payslip at the end of a financial year will read just under £8m, assuming he is on PAYE.

The Saudis are offering 150% of his current post-tax earnings at Chelsea.

To put things in perspective, it is the equivalent of offering Lukaku £770,000 a week in salary in the Premier League -.pre-tax earnings.

And you think it's an insult to Lakaka. Alhaji pass me what you are smoking.

I don’t know why people rate Lukaku, that guy Dey use Jazz. I’m better than Lukaku and I’m not even capping.

andrewbaba44:
I am not saying the team should be competing to win the World Cup ,but they should be doing better than they are

There is imbalance in the team that’s why; they don’t have a natural CF, no natural DM and most of the players are off and on types.

pkasso:
Sule is a good defender just like Lukaku is a good striker and Hazard is a good winger There is no point in being "good" if you can't show it.

Look beyond the names. How many of these guys are actually performing at the top level at their clubs? This past season, the only ones that can hold their heads up high are MATS, Kimmich and Musiala. Shey na Havertz wey dem dey curse here every weekend, abi na Gnabry wey chop bench tire or Sane wey dey fluctuate like NEPA. Even Gundogan sef, na when e reach almost the end of the season, e pick form.

Team wey no get better CF naim complete. Just dey play.

Abeg na which Hazard you Dey refer to, hope na Thorgan? Cos I don’t see why his name should be mentioned alongside Lukaku and Sule.

WhoDeyHause:
Which Kane?

Harry Kane of Tottenham.

Nicolas Jackson is a striker that play similarly to Kane that is why Poch went for him. Let’s see how he develop him to fully Kane level, he did it before I believe he will do it again.
