    What do you think of Olise returning to Chelsea? Seems like it is picking up steam on the market.
    He's injured.

    I have nothing against signing him or Tyler Adams.

    I don't like Conor at DM he hasn't got the technique. I liked Adams against England and Chelsea. I can see that signing working certainly as a squad man. More useful than RLC anyway.

    Olise is technically strong. Doesnt score goals. Im not that excited about him really. Eze would be my pick if we are gonna give Palace a big offer.

    What I do have a problem with is: Adams, Olise, even Vlahovic (linked) all being injured.

    So Chelsea have James, Nkunku, Broja, Badiashille, Chilwell, and Noni plus those 3? Completely forgetting Fofana.

    James and Chiwell are covered. I personally think James' career is ending. Bug when he gets injured we have Gusto and Diasi who can play there. Maatsen covers Chilly hopefully and not Cucu.

    But we have over a third of a squad that if not injured now will spend significant time out injured essentially letting everybody down. Harsh but fair. It is not they might get injured. They will get injured. Then others can be unlucky too

    It is poor work imo.

    Sometimes at Chelsea I think they are doing a good job other times I do think I would do better. I think 80% of their actual fan base would do better.

    It is not a hot take to say Chelsea will struggle with injuries this season even despite playing less games.

    We seem unprofessional imo.

      How many premier league managers, owners and players are you better than now bro? It's gotta be in the 50's lol

      You should do a real life FM save.

      Start at your local Sunday league side and use your talents to get them in the Prem. Who knows? Maybe even the CL and World Club Cup?

      I once got Chesham United into the prem in my 00/01 game. And i'm not even talented.

        It's that Chelsea are objectively ridiculous more than any kind of discerning talent on my part.

        an advisor role if you like would suit me.

        It could go like so:

        So Juventus have made us an offer for Lukaku.

        How much are they giving us?

        Nothing. They want us to give us them £40 million so we can get Vlahovic?

        Right so they want us to give them money? Has the manager or anyone expressed the faintest interest Vlahovic until 3 seconds ago?

        Well. No.

        Right.

        Isn't he also suffering with a recurrent injury and in poor form?

        Well. Yes.

        I'd like to refer you to the r.etarded/not ret.arded flow chart *points to wall.

          We should make a Chelsea FC/ football podcast. S.hit would be hilarious with segments like this. Because it's true.

            I would say out of my friendship group that support Chelsea I'm the most positive one.

            I have an uncle though who has never predicted anything other than a 2 nil Chelsea win.

            He told me he doesn't like watching Chelsea with me.

              Man City to win
              Inter Miami to win

              at 1.98 is a go.

                  Whilst it is nice that he turned down Liverpool I am really ambivalent to the signing full stop.

                  He's a defensive midfielder who is never involved in actual actual goals.

                  I know people will say that's not the point of him but it is, however, the point of football.

                  I could understand strikers/attackers going for huge money because they score them or even keepers going for huge money because they stop them.

                  I know Chelsea fu.cked it by paying for Enzo but an adult in the room could have made sense of it.

                  How is that Pacqueta lad at West Ham worth £100 mill as well? 4 goals he scored last season.

                  Even at 30 years old and with 1 year on his contract how is Harry Kane worth less than a novice defensive midfielder with 40 top flight games under his belt.

                  I think it's another deal that would hit the re.tarded path on my flow chart.

                    Yeah £110m plus on Caicedo is nuts tbh, quality player who improves most teams no doubt but the market is just crazy at the moment. Also Brighton got exactly what they wanted so they are the real winners.

                    I heard some talk that he would still be willing to join Liverpool if Chelsea can't agree a fee with Brighton for whatever reason but i'm not that enthuastic about signing him compared to this morning. Everyone knew Chelsea were his initial preferred choice this summer as they done all the groundwork in the last few months but if he gave enough encouragement for us to make a bid only to still insist on a move to Chelsea after a fee was agreed with liverpool/brighton then i'd say we should just withdraw our offer rather than waiting around.

                    So yeah, you guys can have him lol.

                    But now we will get taken to the cleaners when negotiating for other players. I wouldn't be surprised if southampton changed their mind and asked for 70+ mil for Lavia.
