Like I said, it doesn't really make sense for us to be after another forward in January. We need depth in the fullback positions and midfield. Backup for Begovic since he looks off, too.
Major additions in the summer.

I have literally no clue why anyone wants to buy Morata.
Turks and Germans..? Wait what?
In that order, compared to what i said, Turks have their origins in Germany?
Don't tell them! They think their origins are from in between desert Gobi and the Caspian sea. I wanted us to buy him last summer to partner with Costa when we all assumed Conte wanted to play with two strikers. Definitely don't want us to buy him this coming summer to replace Costa. Don't think he's on that level where he can score 20+ in the PL.
No expert in Chelsea but wouldn't Conte want to replace Costa with for instance, Cavani?
Manager Cannavaro welcomes Pato to the Tianjin Quanjian family.
Welcome aboard the gravy train $$$
oviedo is only 26. wow i thought he was really old
Bloody hell, David.
Doubt we'd want to buy a forward Cavani's age.
Yeah, perhaps you're right. Just thought Conte would love his work rate. Are there really any available strikers under 25 years with superb work rate and high number of goals? Can't think of a single one at the moment...
Edit: Oh, just remembered one player - Andrea Belotti from Torino. But I'm not sure if he would make an instant impact due to it sometimes takes time for Serie A players getting used to the PL.

Oh, he's still alive
We should have been interested in Celtic's Moussa Dembele - Chelsea will be stronger if they manage to get him.
We could have invested the cash we got from Memphis and Morgan.

Can you imagine the number of 'what about Rashford and Martial' threads if we were!
We need a central midfielder that's all really.
That's gonna happen when you buy Griezmann this summer. He and Zlatan are locks to start so what happens to Rashford? Years of playing out wide?
Could become a world class striker combination in a post Mourinho 4-4-2
Rashford'll get sub apps wide and starts up top in the cup. He's still only 19. Mourinho probably looking at a front three of Griezmann, Zlatan and Mkhitaryan with Mata, Rashford and Lingard (or another signing) as backups.
If I remember correctly he didn't want to leave marseille for West ham but had to as marseille had financial problems
Martial? I have a feeling zlatan will be phased out next season.
Really? You think someone with his ego will be willing to sit on the bench? After carrying you this season? No way.
Anyways, don't want to derail the thread.
Good point. Agreed about the derailing.
So if you sign Dembele, what'll happen with Costa? Or can Dembele play wide? Tbh I haven't seen much of him.
Don't really see him staying when Griezmann signs. Mourinho prefers to have a fixed team for most games. With the form of our wide players that hadn't been settled but Mkhitaryan has now started 6 of our last 8 games and so its just the left side up for grabs which Griezmann will take. Formation may change but Martial'll still lose out so will likely be allowed to leave to get more games somewhere.
I think Zlatan will start most games. If phased out it'll might be the season after but I think he'll want to end his career on a high and won't want to be a bit-part player.
And yeah, like you both said, will drop subject as don't want to derail thread.
No idea, mate. Never seen him play other than 1 CL game I think and some YouTube a few minutes ago.
Isn't he ridiculously quick, but with little end product?
He's shite, but yes - he can run fast. Always place in England for a footballer who can run fast.
I don't think Chinese really care that much about real quality with how they spend so much money for outcast. Rooney still has a very good marketing value, which these Chinese teams ultimately aims for. He just gets more marketing value with how he's now goal scoring record holder at our club. Arguably we can attract for Chinese clubs to bid and get a better fee?!
Martial??
Id rather not risk getting lumbered with him because we got greedy
