Chelsea

[Iniesta Ultra]

Felix/Neto, Osimhen/Jackson, Palmer/Nkunku, Madueke/Palmer

They should be fighting for second place with that.

They've trimmed down squad a bit but still have 35 players.

Likes of Chalobah (IIRC i've seen reports about a loan to Crystal Palace but don't know if it went through), Chilwell, Chukwuemeka, Angelo, Broja, Deivid Washington are still there. But TW is still open in some leagues so they'll probably find a way to loan/sell them in coming days.

Sancho in, no Osimen

Feel sorry for Maresca.
I am pretty sure he never asked Felix as well. Todd is still disregarding the manager

Crazy they didn't get Toney instead either. I'm pretty sure Maresca's happy about Felix since he also got Dewsbury-Hall who hasn't shown anything of Felix's level yet.

There were reports that Washington is sold to Strasburg. Should be clear if it went through in a matter of hours.

Chelsea lowballed Osimhen with 4M euro and add-ons while he's already on 10M at Napoli, unfuckingbelievable. Maybe they thought Osimhen would cave last minute but good for him for not taking an insulting wage.

That just can't be true. It sounds too absurd.

One thing Chelsea knows and that is how to blow their money. It doesn't fit the narrative in this case.

You haven't been following Chelsea then because the owners put in salary caps after the initial spending spree when they first came in. Also why they've not signed a single elite player in their prime.

Chelsea winger Raheem Sterling has joined Arsenal on a season-long loan after a deal sheet was submitted to allow his move to go through beyond the transfer deadline.

Hmm.

They extended Jackson contract until 2033, prem just be allowing Chelsea to do whatever they want lol

Don't worry, it will come and bite them in their backsides sooner or later.

Can't wait until they'll try to offload him in a year or two after they'll buy 20 new players.

Apparently Jackson hit some performance metrics that triggered the contract extension and slight pay raise.

Second string team put me to sleep just now against Panathinaikos, endless well defended hail marys. Surprised Maresca would go gimpball.

 

[Maradona37]

The signs were there in the metrics that they would improve (not that I put 100 percent stock in stats). That is proving true so far.

They are scoring goals for fun and are a free-flowing team with som excellent attackers. If they can keep Nkunku fit (big if) hopefully he will rotate in and return to previous form.
