Villatillidie95 Posted July 18, 2023 Share Posted July 18, 2023 I thought it was David Datro Fofana at first who has just gone on loan to Union Berlin. Thats awful news for Wes Fofana though, however still very young and can come back, just seems to have had all of these injuries in one go, for some reason a lot of defenders who have played for leicester seem to have this rotten injury luck!

VillaChris Posted July 18, 2023 Share Posted July 18, 2023 For all their spending Chelsea currently have two fit CBs (Silva and Colwill) and just Fernandez and Gallagher as experienced prem CMs. Another 10 signings in by end of August by looks of it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VillaChris Posted July 18, 2023 Share Posted July 18, 2023 4 hours ago, Genie said: I guess at least he has money in the bank to see him through. Many young players with injuries at that stage are on the scrap heap. How long was the contract they signed him on? That's a big problem with getting players on 7-8 year deals. Endless injuries and other clubs just don't want to take on players who can't stay fit so it just becomes another Phil Jones situation of sticking around a club and never even making the bench for years.

Villatillidie95 Posted July 19, 2023 Share Posted July 19, 2023 A bit on sky news just now following Chelsea on their USA pre season tour, and they focused on CHUKWUMEKA who was signing shirts for their fans over there, one of them asked him about Mount. CHUKWUMEKA also stated he wants to stay and contribute to the club and he will sit down with the club and work out what is best for him.

Bamford to Chelsea, meaning they need a shit striker, Keinan to Leeds, giving us extra cash to splash out, Vlahovic to Villa, the best domino’s transfer ever 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommo_b Posted July 21, 2023 Share Posted July 21, 2023 I think even with Poch, Chelsea will struggle again this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MWARLEY2 Posted July 21, 2023 Share Posted July 21, 2023 Going to be interesting. I was writing them off but they have a squad full of young players who will be able to handle the huge fitness levels Poch requires. They will be able to play quick counterattack football. But they are so lacking experience. They will be a major threat in a couple of years but they have ripped all the leaders out of that squad. Jorginho Kovavic Azpec . Gojng to be interesting to see if they can overcome that lack of experience while the team gels. And if the owners put up with that . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alot of them could just not adjust to league and be sold off. Badly lacking experience and leaders in that side. That's absolutely vital in this league Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’s the way it came up on my phone and I cba to correct it, I often type in capitals when a new player joins, for example, in the coming days, I will post “WELCOME MOUSSA DIABY!” On his thread when I see the official announcement XD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They just didn’t settle or click, not bad players but didn’t work out. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AndyM3000 Posted July 23, 2023 Share Posted July 23, 2023 Chelsea only really got going once Brighton were down to 10 men, they didn't look great before that. Will take a while for Poch to sort these out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
