Put the money towards Ederson from Atalanta.

Maybe they will once the dust settles

on the first wave of targets and prioritise shopping smarter.

This is deader than a dead thing in dead land.

 

Shame like but let’s move on.

Thus far is kind of important in the sentence. 

 

If someone wants to share the successes of this window so far I'm all ears though. 

FFS the PSR deadline is 30th June.  We were never going to sign any players until the new 3 year PSR period commences on the 1st July.

This ain't happening like.

I actually sighed so hard I got lightheaded. 
 

This sucks. Chelsea sucks. PSR sucks.

Swear he’s posted that exact tweet 3 times now.

Might speed up the process of finding out what an acceptable fee is…

[Dr.Spaceman]

Chelsea bothering with scouting or are they just going after other sides reported targets?

Be laughs when he signs for them for £35 million

Tony Bloom is a glorified Chelsea cheerleader, he’s going to bend over as soon as they’re involved.

Must be an easy job being a Chelsea scout.

All the Chelsea fans not impressed about it in the comments.

More he’ll be delighted as Chelsea will comfortably pay £60m+, which we were clearly reluctant to do (and rightly so). 

 

Jokes that for both of the striker options, Chelsea have signed them  Not sure who we turn too now, as Delap and Pedro are so different it shows it’s an evolving landscape of who we are targeting. Like do we now go for a lower price ST and big on CM? As Pedro I could’ve seen being more towards CM whilst ticking striker box, whilst Delap was an opportunistic low cost ST and maybe then getting a low cost CM for £25m (a la Ramsey).

I wouldn’t say that is representative of Chelsea fans, honestly despise social media platforms for that.

Need to change the title tbh, sounds like we are nowhere near.

Is he going to accept less than we offer?

[Elephant]

I have a feeling we could get much more with that price. And then just buy him next summer from Chelsea for £25m.

The only thing giving me hope is that his info is only coming from the Chelsea end. He hasn't yet said that Pedro has chosen Chelsea.

 

Sadly history suggests we know which way this goes.

Isn't it the opposite? Chelsea customers hate the club dealing with him because he always extracts maximum value from them.

[Displayname]

Great news. Lets actually get some value for our money by shopping in continental Europe instead. 

[mouldy_uk]

Title change

 

 

At least we tried…(maybe)

Chelsea will be a real force next year. James back to his best, Caicedo is incredible, Palmer pretty much best at what he does and better better, add in Gittens and Pedro (Delap option), plus the other feckers they have. Grim.

Must be nice business for Bloom knowing he will double his money each time Chelsea come calling. Whats that, north of £400M or so they've extracted from Chelsea?

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.
