Hopefully that’s true. Liverpool and Arsenal fans are pissing themselves laughing at the prospect of us re-signing Cech.

Club legend, but from the way Arsenal fans are talking they don’t think they’d get even £1m for him. Best to steer clear from this one

Cech as #2, moving Caballero to #3 would be a good move for me ... worth it just for training ground and dressing room presence alone.

 
Cillesson to Liverpool rumors taking hold. Maybe they're preparing a plan B, maybe a smokescreen

 
Surely we have a player we can offer to swing it in our favour. Maybe Zouma, Pedro, or Batshuayi?

I always hate that argument - not our money so who cares?!!

We should ALL care the way football is heading with inflated transfer fees and wages for mediocre players as well as the top ones. It can't be sustainable in the long-term and it's ruining the game.

Many of clubs in the past have thought they could afford to compete and now look at them. Pompey, Leeds, Villa...................that's just a few and the list will grow and grow.

The anpunt of money exchanged increases with the money earned. There was aleays going to be an increase in prizes of players when clubs started makkng more money. Its the basic concept of an inflated marked. If Im not mistaken, Stan Collymore is still the most expensive player in the premier league when factoring in club income  

 
Fee agreed with Liverpool according to every reliable Liverpool-journo. £66 million.

Shame, and i'm getting worried about who we are going to go for.

 
All the reports say that Liverpool haven't even spoken to  the player yet, just have possibly agreed a fee.  No  confirmation from the other end at all.

I know a good keeper is essential for teams wanting to be the best, but f**k me, the world has gone mad when you are talking these sort of figures.

Stupid money for Alisson. Especially when we could arguably purchase both Butland and Pope for much less. Butland as No.1 and Pope as back up.

That is excactly how we screwed up in the transfer market last year among others.

"Why buy top class player A when you can buy average player B for half the price"

See Drinkwater, Zappa etc.

Nothing wrong with the theory, just the people using it.

I think this would be a great move tbh, especially if we get Cech for cheap to play as back up/mentor to him.

Bakayoko and Barkley fit like a glove. 

Although to be fair to Bakayoko, he fits the Mikel role well. 2 left shoes on for shooting!

I wouldn't call Butland average, and at around £30 million I wouldn't call Butland over 50% worse than Alisson at £70 million. Butland is attainable and unless I'm mistaken we are not in a position to expect top talent  to come to Chelsea as we have no CL.

What is Donnarumma's distribution like? Not seen much of him, but he looks massive.
