    This club is in shambles btw, if we actually start preseason without 1 new signing

    We really thought things were changing 🤡

    Mendes is doing the rounds. I have a growing suspicion that Ronaldo won’t be our player by the end of the summer

    Says a lot if they panicked to buy Ronaldo but are not panicking to keep him because that involves signing some players and entails more than just getting a call from Jorge Mendes

    That's such a dumb rumour lmao, he wouldn't go to another prem club. He probably does have concerns about the recruitment or lack thereof, we all do, but I can't see him going anywhere but Madrid.

    It’s not just a “dumb rumour” if David Ornstein is reporting it — he’s one of the most reliable sports journalists in the UK.

    Obviously I don’t think that means he’ll end up Chelsea but it’s quite clear that Mendes is setting the ground work to get him out…

    He’s just putting pressure on the club to get active in the market, this man doesn’t want his last seasons to be spend on challenging for top 4, he needs to win something and that isn’t going to happen if we dont bring ppl in

    If you had a rough guess of how many signings will end up doing, I’m thinking 4

    3 or 4 sounds about right. We need more, but the time it’s taken to do the De Jong deal + the lack of ability to get unwanted players sold will stifle major activity.

    FDJ
    Another CM
    An attacker
    A CB or a fullback

    We should be looking at a wide variety of players for these positions tbh and go for the good deals. I don’t mind us paying a lot for Frenkie because he is a one of a kind player and because we desperately need someone in that position, but we def should not be paying full price for a winger like Antony when there are alternatives for that position.

    Agreed. We can look desperate over FDJ and pay whatever Barca want, but we must negotiate and be prepared for other players if our targets like Antony, Eriksen, Martinez/Timber etc. don’t work out

    I wonder what our budget is now after De Jong, because I’d be going all in for Neves but there was talk of it only being 120 mill plus whatever sales we make

    Still feel we need an out and out defensive midfielder
