May 30, 20179 yr Ah, the go-to thread this summer! Is there a "rubbing hands delightedly" emoticon or will this one do: ?
May 30, 20179 yr Author Indeed, between myself @coco, @loz and @Mod Stark this list should be handy enough to keep updated!
May 30, 20179 yr Is the original comment going to be edited for each in/out to keep it up to date? If so great idea.
May 30, 20179 yr If you're going to use this as the official thread for it, could you put more detail, such as where players went/came from, and cost?

May 30, 20179 yr i dunno, but just wanna say i hate this time of the year because people start whining we aren't making moves for every top name out there in the first week of the transfer window and the pessimism starts growing, oh and not to mention there's unreliable links being posted left, right and centre.

Take it easy. I'm sure Conte has plans.
May 30, 20179 yr Author Aim will be to edit original post with transfers yes. And where they go to etc
May 30, 20179 yr Outs two others need to be addedAtsu and Cuadrado. Yep both were on loan but both were still contracted to us. Think quite a few of those out on loan will be saying bye this window.
May 30, 20179 yr So with the fees received from the sales of Begovic and Caudrado (roughly £30m) added to the sales of Oscar and Mikel in January (roughly £70m) we've got thereabouts £100m in the kitty before considering our sponsorship deals (£60m Nike and £40m Yokohama Tyres). Also take into account that big wage earners (JT, Ivanovic, Mikel (maybe Oscar)) have left and I think we are in a very strong financial position to strengthen our squad this summer.

Add to that 150 mil for winning the league, I'm expecting lovely things to happen we are owed a killer window
May 30, 20179 yr I don't know but I've got a strange feeling that Conte won't get reinforcements he's after as opposed to our rivals.Or we'll end up paying insane money on Lukaku and become a new laughing stock.

Although I wouldn't really care about us becoming a laughing stock, I'd hate to see another Torres situation. I think Lukaku is perhaps the better CF, but personally would prefer if we saved £20 odd million (or whatever the difference may be) and signed Morata. Edited May 30, 20179 yr by the special one
May 30, 20179 yr Every team are upgrading their squads for next season, the Arsenal loss will have told Roman we need to strengthen and spend big and clever, wait patiently guys I have good feelings about this transfer window, hopefully its not the sh*t storm we had last season though..
May 31, 20179 yr it would be nice to bring in an unexpected "big" name though for marketing reasons, and obviously to increase the quality in our team. with the murmurs of griezemann leaving atletico and utd being his destination, utd would once again have the upper hand in marketing regards.
May 31, 20179 yr No solid links, word is conte has a very clear agenda of who and what he wants, no one saw luiz coming, I think our new approach is to do things very low key, hoping we get hit with big surprises one after the other, the good sort of course, I'm glad conte was rumoured to have his head turned by Milan, Roman may be inclined to try and keep him happy, if ever a window was promising, the manager performance and poor previous windows, although kante, luiz and Alonzo worked out well we were underwhelmed in relation to expectation following our disaster season built partly on the lack of strengthening, let's hope lessons have been learned Edited May 31, 20179 yr by DonAntonio
May 31, 20179 yr I'd wish Dom Solanke all the luck in the world, but he's gone to Liverpool, so I wish him nothing but bad luck, still I think he could prove us wrong.
June 3, 20179 yr Assume Antonio Conte is on a well deserved holiday. So nothing will happen officially about us signing players until he returns. I would imagine.
June 3, 20179 yr So when did 50 thousand of us do this? http://www.dailystar.co.uk/sport/football/619366/Chelsea-summer-signings-transfer-targets-news-Alexis-Sanchez-sportgalleries edit* it was apparently a skysports interactive poll. Edited June 3, 20179 yr by DonAntonio
June 3, 20179 yr So long as no-one posts the 'it's coming' gif, I think this should be a good thread. This is not an invitation for someone to do it.

Same. Twitter is unbearable this time of year. I have full confidence in the club and manager. If we don't strengthen, then younger fringe players will bare the load next season... which not too long ago everyone was crying out for. Although I think that has cooled a little, when you realise none of the youth players we have sold have gone to any clubs winning regular silverware elsewhere. Still, with the shrewd business we have done recently, champions of England (and Wales), new sponsor deals, playing in Europe again, and one of the best managers in the world, we should be adding some seriously good, first team ready players to challenge the status quo and push us up another level all together. Whether that be tomorrow or in August. However let's not forget, £600M stadiums don't pay for themselves.
