Still think he'll do good for us. Key is to drop Suarez next season and play Coutinho-Messi-Dembele trio.

thats the fifa appeal not CAS

"Chelsea can (and probably will) also appeal the decision at the Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS), but as our good friend (and WAGNH alum) Jake Cohen points out, Chelsea cannot appeal the appeal until the first appeal is completed. FIFA’s decision is not suspend the ban is not the end of that first appeal unfortunately (they’re still going through the pantomime of considering Chelsea’s appeal to actually reduce it)."

FIFA took 6-8.5 months for the appeal in previous cases so it's very likely that Chelsea won't be able to sign anyone this summer.

EDIT: I misread his post thinking he regarded FIFA not CAS, my bad, but the situation remains the same.

If Coutinho is starting LW tomorrow... now is the time to fuckin step up. I hope he does.. even if he just keeps moving the ball well with no stupid dispossessions. An assist would be nice too.

Sell Coutinho and Malcom and buy Joao Felix.

WTF? Watched that kid last week against Dinamo Zagreb and he is seriously overhyped!

I agree Coutinho really needs to step up tomorrow. It's fucking time he starts earning his wages!

Did you watch this player every week, or just highlights so you rate him high? I just wonder, i didnt watch him, but i watched dinamo zagreb : benfica last week, felix didnt show any glimpse of such a big talent what we can read, he was in the pocket of average defender from Croatian legaue

If we are desperately looking for LW we could swap Coutinho with Hazard.

Hazard is leaving and most likely to Real, so why not hijack Real's target?
