Funded by PIF this summer through the CWC too. Extraordinary turn of events.

Thought he was superb last night. So comfortable on the ball and has bags of energy and drive

There’s talk that they may have already sold all or part stake of the women’s team to themselves - but we won’t know until a few weeks time I think we should sell Strawberry Place to ourselves for 100m

I have faith in the club to get the players we need but transfers with us have become incredibly frustrating. We miss out on so many players its uncanny.

You are absolutely right - why did I think more players got sold?

They have Neto, Gittins, Jackson, Delap , Nkunku, Madueke, George, Guiu and also Felix and Sterling still on their books all in attaching positions. What a totally bonkers situation.

Can’t really blame us but we’ve been too slow.

I was beaten up (ish) twice by ‘grown men’, home and away when a kid in the 80s and pretty much minding my own business. Always had a dislike for the club since.

Do Chelsea have fans or just customers? Watching the ECL final it felt like the latter.

Smart business by them. If you cant learn from the best, just straight up copy them.

I’ve wondered the same.

While journalists do play a role, I don't believe they're entirely at fault here. Like it's totally fair to call out some of the shit that they put out; a lot of it is half-baked, rushed, or clearly meant to stir up drama. But it's also worth remembering that a lot of these guys are just trying to do their jobs in a system that pretty much forces this kind of content.

So these cunts are signing our two top striker targets? Starting to really dislike these.

Like Chelsea did with their hotel or women’s team? It’s moving things between different arms of a holding company; not like doing a deal with N arm’s length third party.

Well done Tino lad! Great to have had two players involved in winning this in successive competitions. Happy for Elliot A too.

He is, but he’s levels this season as it’s gone on compared to last is night and day and it’s not changing. Chelsea got over the line for UCL with that win end of season, but they were on a slide. Like playing Liverpool on the beach and Man Utd paper over how abject they were 2nd half of season. Nothing to fear about them at all IMO.

Caicedo, Cucarella and Sanchez was 175m.

Hopefully it works out as well for us this time as it did the first time.

Is it plausible that Chelsea are after him just to stop us from having him? Him and Delap don't exactly scream title challenge, assuming that's their target.

These clowns can spend whatever they like, are the players they are signing any good? If they were any good... would they be signing for Sunderland? Have they one player that you can hang your hat on being a PL standard player?

Sunderland are about to pay £30m for someone who's just finished 7th in Ligue 1 with less than 100 league games under his belt who'll be in a relegation battle. £50-60m for the finished product who we view as being good enough to finish top 4 seems about right tbh.

Meltdown imminent Its a follow on from yesterday, let’s not shit the bed yet

Palmer is absolutely top notch, in my book. I’d be delighted though if you were right.

Quite funny how the club have lost out on him twice in three years. Maybe next time.

He’s scored like one open play goal in like 25 games I think? Chelsea are not in a great spot IMO, and that will show as the proper games start off next season.
