Random Rumours

Delap would be the perfect fit for this squad and I’d genuinely feel capable of a title push next season with him leading the line. 

 
How much would Delap cost? 35m if so possibly a better option than all these 75 -100 mill risky strikers we have been linked with.

If hes 75m i'll get back in my box.😂

 
Saw a rumour on Tiktok last night, bloke claiming Marcus Rashford is heading to Chelsea. Can't see any other talk about that yet.

meh

would we want him?  Nkunku is better imho  Rashford would not be much more than a squad player for us.

I imagine Tosin will get a few more chances in his absence.

Yep.

Also, Aaron Anselmino [19] will remain at Boca Juniors until June 2025 despite Chelsea having the option to recall him in January.  AND Aaron will most likely go on loan in the summer. But we do need a CB - maybe in January?

If we're so wary of ffp/psr, we won't even touch him. His wages alone are 350k+/wk without winning a big title. 

 
I still maintain that Guehi & Delap in January would make me take a title challenge seriously.

Once you add up all the square footage of nonsense produced by the commercial rumour mills, you will find that Chelsea are monitoring anything with a pulse, and have even posted scouts at Pele's grave just in case he is resurrected.

Monitor FC BACK AGAIN

 
Like a lot of clubs we are being linked to Dani Olmo, with his situation at Barca up in up in air, as well as Johnathan David again, given he has 6 months left on his Lille deal and would be a cheap buy.

@BordeauxBluethoughtd on J David?

 
We need to get off this page. 

Are Chelsea making any hints at comings and goings this window? I haven't heard a thing. 

Post more.

Barcelona will find a way to get him registered, they always do. I don't think there is any space for Olmo either. He can play left wing, right wing or attacking midfield, but his best position is attacking midfield. We have Palmer and Felix already and Paez arriving next season.

 
La Liga has unregistered Olmo from Barca, they had until the 31st of December to show that they had the economic solvency to renew his licence and the paperwork shown by Barcelona to La Liga has not convinced them. He'd be a very good addition to the team, an AM with goal and technical quality. And it would help to sink Barca a bit more. I have heard that Arsenal are interested in him and it would be improve them quite a lot, imo, so I hope that they don't get him. Unfortunately, he's 26, so older than what our board likes to buy.

An attacking midfielder who gets the odd goal now and again. At least that would replace the second goalkeeper on the bench!

If we sign anyone in January I hope it is properly focused on need rather than 'seems like an opportunity to get a cheap deal'.

Another player to play behind a striker is about as needed as a creche in a Catholic church.  It will only end in tears.

I’d say that he’s better than Enzo and has more goals, 6 in 15 games this season so far.

 
I don't expect us to make signings this January, maybe some more youth players but not first team ones.

Anselmino may well be the defensive reinforcement. Could be we see Lesley and/or Andrey Santos recalled to give us midfield depth, and DD Fofana recalled to compete with Jackson.

The accounts are worked out for the year, we have no shirt sponsor, and have a huge FFP outlay as it is.

Sales like Carney, Chilwell, Casadei etc may happen, may be loans, but that would benit mainly, sales and loans imo.
