Well, Lukaku was the main target of the champions, Conte must've thought he would have suited them.
I think they just wanted to prove something to Jose. That he dumped him and they could do something with him. He probably is the nearest to Costa without the nastiness. Think they are getting a more all round player with Morata. Chelsea's advantage is that the other players realised they had to score goals as well. Our wet themselves if they entered the penalty area.
I hope it works out for both players, but I would rather Morata had stayed where he was or went to Italy.
Got Saturday's lotto numbers as well please mate?Real shame, he will be brilliant and score against us every damn game
I hate posts like that. I remember Chelsea signing Torres and thinking he'd be brilliant. Same for Ballack and Shevchenko.
Football has no guarantees.
Danilo to City? WTF they are just bought Walker
They need cover.
I'm wondering whether we see Danilo as cover for both RB and LB, ditching the plan to sign Bertrand and Alves after Alves moved to PSG.
I would rather see Lorente or Benteke upfront for Chelsea myself as I think Morata would be an exceptional striker for them.
However, I am happy we got the player Jose wanted and pissed Chelsea manager and fans in doing this.
€35m for cover. Ridiculous.
I imagine we'll want to play to Pogba's strengths and 4-2-3-1 doesn't really do that. Our alleged midfield targets also seem to suggest we're looking for a DM to screen Herrera and Pogba.
That doesn't mean to say we wont play 4-2-3-1 or 3-5-2 at all but I'd be surprised if either were the formation of choice for next season.
We didn't piss the fans that much, not sure most wanted Lukaku anyway. Conte is always throwing a hissy fit about something. That is the way he is.
Also Chelsea are making sure Jose does not get the CDM he wanted in Matic. So both them and Real will be pretty chuffed with themselves.
Within a few sentences he goes from unhappy to happy.
Only thing that makes even a little sense is that perhaps owing to Danilo's ability to also play LB & DM that Pep covet's the player's versatility
True, but they're also apparently close to Mendy for yet another £40-50m. Why didn't they just keep Sagna for free and use him as cover? Spending money that could buy you a solid starter on a squad player is weird.
From Alves to Danilo. What a step down. The Manchester clubs have an incredible ability to waste money on some bang average players, it's hilarious watching city fans on bluemoon and united fans on here justifying some of the stupid transfer fees and wages the respective clubs have paid out in recent times.
It would not stun me in the slightest if we signed Barkley.
For the most part he was a liability, on big wages (perks of signing as a free transfer from Arsenal) and wasn't getting any younger.
Can't wait for the meltdown every time he scores this season. Be even worse if he scores against us.
Don't you dare, son.
No value in the market.. Fergie knew all along.
Sagna was terrible but can't say that Danilo is an upgrade so definitely agree
I have a couple of Chelsea friends who are pissed that they didn't get Lukaku. Maybe the general consensus is different.
We needed a striker more than we need a cdm. It was a good decision to focus on the striker even if that meant we lost on the first option in cm.
Was that not the price we reportedly offered?
If Lukaku was playing in place of Rooney last season, would've already been title contenders.
I'm pretty sure we kept trying to low-ball them with 70-75.
"We saw 65, 90, 75 threw in"
So a 90 bid already happened, but a 80 bid will get the player? Blah blah blah.
