Not only that, but he is also being quite selective of the usage of the power the badge gives him. the way he reacted to Mata interception, trying to break his leg was unacceptable. Really? Smiles and hugs?  Five minutes earlier, he was extremely annoyed by Pogba or Martial and made a gesture with the ball. He is also the only one that is getting along with Morata and another verifiable fact - somehow he never manages to make a good cross to Giroud...it's always short, or long, or he isn't even there.. 

Also, he is the only one in that team that is pretending for every single throw. What, does he play for Arsenal, to raise his hands before even the ball is out? the captain should be a respectable person, not a clown like Nacho Montreal. 

Azpilicueta is one of the worst captains that this club has ever had. 

I've just read this post, and it has reminded me that I really need to finish reading that Daniil Kharms anthology.

I don't think even his absurdity could match that bollocks written by Giordano Bruno.

Palace "expect to sign Moses" according to the Evening Standard, if the report is to be believed we're also looking to cash in on Tammy.

I still really like Moses, I would be disappointed if he never got a good fee for him, there's a quality player in there. I'm sure Conte will be interested in him wherever he goes next.

I can see Moses going to Palace, but I will be surprised if Tammy goes the same way. For one thing he is on a season long loan with Villa so I'm not sure he could even move clubs in January. When his current loan is over I hope Sarri has another look at him. 

I've just read the last 3 pages and I'm stunned... I know I'm probably beating a dead horse right now but I don't even know any of our rival fans that dislike Azpilucueta, nevermind our own fans. 

 

anybody know the fee expected for Moses and Abraham? I am going with a guesstimate of a combined 20m+

I said to a Palace fan at work they could bring Moses home in January and he said that’s not what they need. They need a good striker and some reinforcements at the back.

I picked up talk of an Italian team having interest in Van Anholt, this might be why though Van Anholt plays on the left.

Set to join  Fenerbahce on an 18 month loan. Has apparently already been pictured arriving in Turkey so could be done by the end of the week. 

Was always going to be one of the first casualties of Sarri switching to a back four. 

He's a passable wing-back but an extremely average winger. Wish him all the best. 

Confirmed now. Loaned out.

Crazy how far he has fallen. He was a key player that season we won the league.

He’d still make a quality wingback.

Why on earth are we loaning him instead of selling?

Do they want Willian too?

They're not that desperate. 

Great in the title winning season, and also played a heavy part in the UEFA cup win. 

He never had the quality to make it as an attacker here, but for £8m, which is probably already been covered with his 3 previous loans, it's been a great piece of business. 

Good Luck Victor.

Good luck to Victor. Was shlepped around from one loan to another time and again until Conte gave him a chance and he did brilliantly by helping the club win their most recent PL title. Didn't bitch or moan when when things didn't go well for him, just all around decent guy.

I wish him the best of luck. Was a vital cog in our Conte title-winning side.

Can’t get my head around that considering we bought him for £8m. Certain some PL team would have offered at least £15m considering he is homegrown, but this is Chelsea and we just don’t seem to be able to get players off the books.

Best of luck to him.  Seemed a humble bloke, and got a League winners medal with us due to Conte's transformation of him.  Thanks Victor.

Saw a rumour that Fenerbache was also looking at Danny Drinkwater.............

Good luck Victor too.

Saw that also, but wasn't sure how legit it was.  Almost seemed like Chelsea saying to Fenerbache "hey, we've another player here we aren't gong to use...you need a midfielder?"

I'd still back him to have more end product than Willian !

Like Cahill, maybe it's hard to get a good fee because of his wages. Im more surprised a premier league club didn't go in for him.

He's off. Bit of a 'one season wonder' for us but a good pro. Hasn't complained or moaned about his lack of opportunities under Sarri.
