    Chelsea needs to balance their book. They actually have to sell .

    Doubt it.

    They seem to be just dandy.

    The holding company could go bust but not chelsea apparently.

    Reports show the holding company is up to 1.1billion in debt with 7% interest and payment is due on 700 million in 2027

    Meanwhile the accounts published by cheslea indicate a profit made for the year due to selling their assets off to their holding company.

    They seem to not care at all.

    They have bought Jackson replacement (delap) and are now buying delap's replacement (pedro) in the same window and will buy Pedro's replacement by the end of the window.

    They have bought so far

    Yet another 6 for 20 mil. 5th or 6th one at the club.

    Another 10 in paez for 10 but he's not good enough so will buy another. Thry have of course palmer, dewsbury hall, Felixstowe and nkunku

    They have gittens coming for lw that's more cash. All but done i think. Thry have George who never played ,neto. Madueke, mudryk (drugs) and sterling coming back.

    They bought a rw for 30, estevao buy have maduekue, neto

    They had no 9 apparently bar Jackson, fofana, broja, guiu, Felix and delap.

    It makes total sense to buy Pedro's to add to that little lot.


    The important point here is that all this is not improve their team at all.

    Their keeper is ****
    Their rb situation is dodgy
    Their lb cucurella not covered
    Their cbs ain't all that
    Two cms are 220mil or so but they keep buying more.
    Palmer is 10 but has stopped playing
    And their new front 3 are all being replaced before preseason starts!!!!

    Chelsea defence is not good enough.

    they are working the loopholes left open to them. At some point, you’d think it will come back to haunt them but so far, apparently not.

    Until that holding company goes bust they are golden.

    Not only that but in effect they are writing down players.on a 5 year basis against tax and then the player inflation and super long contracts enbale them to sell at a profit.

    For me fifa rules need to change.

    Maximum 10 loanees per season. They have a huge amount out on loans.

    Close all shell company and multicultural ownerships. The lot should go.

    Nunez has not had enough starts but his record is
    1. 40 goals, 26 assists in 143 matches, 7430minute (82.5 90min games)
    2. 25 goals, 16 assists in 95 premier league games or 4861 mins or 54 90min games.

    If you are generous you can make a case for him not being a 1 in 4 forward. You can say he is a 1 in 2 type player if backs and played consistently.

    However we all know why he has not got the starts. Managers dont trust him and his form wavers or drops off.

    He was used as a sub 22 times in the league by slot last year. It's not luke he wasn't given some time to make an impression but he did only get 1218 minutes last year so about 20mins or so each time.

    Overpriced for an good (but not great) player. Seems to be Chelsea's m.o when it comes to forwards.
    Not sure why they haven't gone for Sesko or Gyokeres. They've clearly got the money, they've got CL football, they're a better prospect than ManU. It's more what they need, not a player who can be good on his day but lacks the consistency like Pedro

    Pedro not going to Newcastle is a bit of a blow in terms of Isak, no replacement means Newkie are even less likely to sell.

    FIFA has implemented new regulations to limit the number of players clubs can loan out and loan in, aiming to curb player hoarding and promote development. The current limit, which has been phased in, is a maximum of six players loaned in or out. These restrictions don't apply to players under the age of 21 or those who are considered "club-trained".

    Sesko will be Pedro's replacement. Who is delaps replacement. Who is jacksons replacement.

    Some kind of record that.

    I hope those rules work better.

    Harvey Elliott should have been tried as a striker. He would have scored more goals than Darwin Nunez I believe.

    He's followed in and got a couple of goals there but he's also.going to get absolutely bullied out for the game up front.

    he didn't play as a "striker" he played as an attacking RM or RW in a front 3.

    Thierry Henry was attacking midfielder before he was converted to striker. He was a successful striker. Wenger did a good job there.

    Elliott is a match winner - from the bench. Not sure that's good enough for him. I would like to see him stay at least another season and see how things develop.
