Unarguably there has obviously been some uncertainties over Chelsea for months now concerning transfers and they haven’t been impressive in preseason. Now they have been able to bolster their squad with just Sterling and Koulibaly having lost some players already. And it does look like more will want to live either on loan or leaving entirely. Honestly they’re trying to bring in some names but they have found their efforts stymied by Barcelona. We can see that a lot of clubs are reinforcing and if Chelsea delays to do the same, the season ahead will be unfriendly to them.

It prolly is, Aaron Ramsey has struggled for fitness for quite a long time now, to be honest i do not blame Juventus at all for terminating his contract with them, they bought him with a lot of hope and optimism, and made him one of their highest earners in the club, i think Ramsey was earning around £400k every week, thus when a club pays you that high, you are expected to deliver for them on the pitch, and that is something Ramsey did not manage to do at all; even when he was pushed out on loan to Rangers, he didn't perform too. I do not know what the next chapter is for Aaron, but i think he will prolly move to a smaller club, so that he can get enough playing time and see if he can revive his career. I would love to see him in the EPL again though, maybe the recent 'money-club' Newcastle can sign him.

I fully respect these valuable comments from a great player about a club which is right now having deep financial issues but still buying very high price players and not giving player's wages and creating feud about this as well here now De Jong should leave Barcelona, and he can go against them in court because they are doing the worst things which can create more mess up in future if they fail to have required results in coming season on the field.

Manchester United were desperate to sign him but due to these wages issue now they are not having any serious statement about this all hopefully in future we will have some development which will be acceptable for player and Barcelona.

It was precisely because of an injury that Dembele did not play optimally last season, but did you know that this player had good quality before?
that's why big clubs need some substitutes, if one of them gets injured then there are still substitutes to play, I think when Dembele can stay fit and not injured all season, this player will be able to play well, because he has quality and skill who is qualified, only the problem of injury must be considered, so that Dembele can play regularly throughout the match

When viewed from the number of players released or bought, Chelsea are still very short of new players next season, so far they have only signed two new players Eddie Beach and
Raheem Sterling while almost 9 players have been released this season, then if you look at the squad for next season, they will still rely on old players, this will have an impact on competing in the top standings, if the transfer market closes, Chelsea will not get some new players, then surely they still rely heavily on old players

Ronaldo was reportedly seen at Manchester United's headquarters in a training session after Manchester United's pre-season match. I think Ronaldo's big potential is to stay at Manchester United until his contract expires. Losses may be obtained by Manchester United if Ronaldo does not want to extend his contract with Manchester United, but the rumors circulating at this time are still unconfirmed. The new Manchester United coach has spoken that he still needs Ronaldo, and that would be the answer for Ronaldo who will stay at United, at least until his contract runs out and he can start retiring.

There are rumors about Christiano Ronaldo joining Atletico Madrid, but the Atletico fans don't want him, so they have started a petition on Twitter. I totally understand them. Ronaldo scored lots of goals against Atletico in the past. He's not the player he used to be, so he can't be a leader or a top scorer anymore. He will turn into a substitute player with a big salary and this isn't what Atletico Madrid needs right now.
The rumors of Ronaldo joining Chelsea are most likely false.


I don't know why they bought Ramsey at the first place. He is well known for being a fragile player having lots of injuries and he misses lots of goal opportunities. His career is basically over.

Yes, I also think the same, for me Real Madrid will wait until the World Cup is over to see the possible new young players who are famous, that is the style of Real Madrid, although for now they have Benzema and Modric who are being very good players. good, in fact, for me they are the best at the moment despite the fact that there are other brilliant ones like Haaland and others who are really shining, that's why for me this World Cup promises and I'm sure that the best players who are and will be seen will be very fought by Real Madrid and PSG which is where they also have a lot of money, Barcelona still have some economic problems that prevent them from buying the best.


I have also seen something like this in some news, but I have not been able to decipher if the news is authentic or fake, there are many speculations about Chelsea, I have seen news that even say that they were interested in CR7, so it is difficult, there are also some publications on Facebook who talk about news like that, and some clubs especially like Chelsea are very jealous with their information, unless a player misses something there, but in the same way they are not authorized to give information about their club and Some don't have the slightest idea what they're going to do. I don't think the defenders will leave. Chelsea isn't that bad financially.

There are also rumours of two main defensive players of chelsea targetted by another team. I meant this time so many people have no intention to join with chelsea. This is making this time even worst caused by less players interested in it. it will become a disaster for the club. I thought that todd's acquisition will make it even better but it seems like the club has become even worst. Im feeling doubt if chelsea can compete with so many big clubs for the next EPL. So many big clubs bought so many new ammunitions for the next season but not for chelsea due to the difficult situation.

Except things change and Chelsea is able to attract and buy more player, they would have to endure a very difficult season. The current players would be overworked and any injury on any player would be a disaster because of scarce replacement. I think it is time for Chelsea to search for quality players from their academy because that was what Frank Lampard did and got a bunch of good players that are foundational members of the first team today. The departure of Roman Abramovich would keep hunting the club until the new management stabilizes.   

This season will be quite hard for them especially after the departure of some key players especially in the defence. In my opinion it will depend on how much Tuchel could improve the current players quality and how efficient his tactics will be vs strong opponents that already recruited top players and still continuing to build more powerful team.
City, Liverpool, Arsenal and Spurs will not let Chelsea get easily a spot between them.

Agreed, it's so different with chelsea when it's still owned by abramovich. This time it's getting even harder for chelsea to get a player. So many top players have ignored to join in this club since todd boehly acquired chelsea. The current squad is not enough to compete with big team in the premier league. So many teams have bought new quality players to the club while chelsea was still struggling with its problem. I saw how frustated tuchel is.
So many internal problems appeared since chelsea acquired by todd. I doubt this club can even still stand at the top 4 positions in the premier league.

Tuchel may be frustrated to see the current performance of their squad. It is normal if he is angry, but to blame the Chelsea management isn't the right way. Chelsea has signed two good players, Koulibaly and Sterling. It is no bad effort done by Chelsea management. They also actually have negotiated with some top players, sadly Barcelona always hijacks their targetted players. Tuchel should be angry with Barcelona, not with Chelsea management. 

Chelsea's massive overhaul this season should guarantee their success at the end of the season by winning a number of titles. They are like a very optimistic team about it where they seem to be very active in the market by spending a lot of money. Sterling, Koulibaly and now they are reportedly approaching De Jong is something that looks very aggressive.

I don't know if this is all Conte's desire as a coach, or maybe the desire of the new owner to make his team better than last season. I hope it's good, but I'm not sure about the title because Liverpool and Manchester City are still ahead in my opinion.

With the way things are going right now at Chelsea,I think they won't have a great season, the league will resume in a week time and their manager is in doubt with the commitment of some of his players, he does not have a striker, they have sold Romelu Lukaku, Timo Weiner has been ask to look for a new club, players like Alonso and ceaser Azpilicueta wants to go to Barcelona, Ngolo Kante has just one year left in his contract.these are not good sign for a new season.

Tuchel should not be angry with the management. He should understand that chelsea management just changed hands and are battling things and trying to put things in order. They have also made good signing more than Manchester United. They can start with what they have at the moment. He has a good team, let not Arsenal defeat demoralise them. Atleast he still has a good squad. He lost Rudiger and gain Koulibaly, he lost Lukaku and got Sterling.

I think ownership changes are commonplace at various clubs in other leagues, so it's not a good reason if this prevents them from getting players in the transfer window. it's been two times chelsea have had to lose to compete with barcelona to get their target player, one of which is Raphinha and the second maybe kounde. Well in this case the target players for Chelsea are indeed more interested in joining Barcelona than Chelsea. but Chelsea have already got Raheem sterling and also Koulibaly in this summer window. Even now, chelsea is still quite active in looking for other players after failing to get raphinha and kounde. we will see if tuchel will turn his attention to ronaldo after ronaldo was rumored to be leaving manchester united.

Tuchel is angry of the fact that Chelsea board has refused to give out money to use in signing quality players,and in his speech,he made mention of Totthenham  as a team that will definitely be terrific next considering the numbers if quality players they've signed.
They have recruited Bissouma, Richarlison,and Perisic to boost their squad.While Chelsea have acquired Sterling,and Koulibaly but they are not enough to be able to get a champions league or Premier league trophy.

He could get them glory or not, that is not going to be the problem. What we are talking about here is that they are going to end up with a bit of a financial problem and that means that we are talking about something that will cause them to become even worse than they were last year.

Eventually when the time comes they are going to end up with selling all their players and just focus on a full on youth squad with cheap salaries, that time WILL come, it is not even a question. What they are doing right now is only to postpone that and that is the problem, if they keep on making it later and later that will end up with cause them to regret doing what they did this summer.

That might be true but they are still a Champions league team. That in itself is sufficient to be an attractive prospect for players to join in. They did get a few good signings in including Sterling, Koulibaly. The new owners seem friendly and just threw a party which they invited all the other EPL team's owners and top executive. All new owners come with new enthusiasm and try to make a big mark at the club. Should be the best time to join the club and make something of yourself. Especially for young talents.
