I really don't care that much.

You cared enough to ask the question, and apparently sarcasm goes right over your head.

We already have Morata and just signed Giroud. How can we have guaranteed Martial he could play as a striker? Unless we change to 2 up front.

2 up front or Morata is leaving, would have to be one or the other.

Martial is better than both and Giroud isn't a long term option.

I was trying to ignore the pitiful attempt at sarcasm on your end because quite frankly the whole thing was a bit embarrassing for both of us. But seeing as you seem to really want me to acknowledge how clever you are then; well done, very good, you're very smart.

You also admitted in your previous post that the guy you are quoting hasn't got a clue as he quotes all the other ITK's who clearly don't know what they are talking about. Thanks for clearing that up. I presume that's why you are so upset? Because I didn’t thank you for your fake ITK sources?

I think because there's a chance Morata goes. If Morata doesn't go, I don't see us going after Martial as would make no sense.

I do think it's too early to say. Has he even player no.9 at Utd?

Yeah but not many times. I would be surprised if Chelsea bought him to play outwide.

Read enigma’s reply to my post, that should clear it up for you.  I said he quotes Italian stories, but he also has some sort of source within/close to the club.  Watch his videos and decide for yourself, it’s entirely possible that he’s full of sh*t.  

Not upset at all, in fact, I’d rather not hijack a thread with an argument.  But when you confront a perfectly reasonable post, a little sarcasm sent your way is well deserved.

I wasn't being confrontational about your post, I'm just very sceptical of any self proclaimed in the knows considering how wrong they all have been this summer with regards to Chelsea. This Martial link seems like these guys doing 2+2 and getting 5 and then acting like they have got this info from somebody close to the club. I doubt we are seriously in for any player without a concrete manager situation and our interest in Martial is superficial at best.

I actually agree with the points you’ve made here.

The Sun writes that Chelsea would be ready to consider a swap deal for Martial and Willian. Personally, I'd love to see a player like Martial at the club - even at the cost of Willian. Doubt it'll happen though.

I don’t see chelsea playing Martial as a number 9 to me he is a contingency plan if Hazard leaves for Madrid 

 

smoke and mirrors about playing him through the middle 

I think Sarri will want to see what he can get out of Morata tbh 

So Martial won't play under Jose, didn't play for France.. Why the f**k do we want to pay 90m for him?!

He didnt play for France because Nouri ho doesnt think he works well enough defensively, but lets be real he is a hell of a talent. Think he could develop into a monster under someone like Sarri

I'd take him, but not at that price.

We don't and no one will. Mourinho prefers the hardworking types like Perisic and Willian so thats not a downmark on Martial he just isn't that type of player. I still feel Chelsea want him to be used as a striker. Lets see, i hope it happens.

Would you take him as a replacement for Morata ?

Rather than Higuain?  Absolutely

Sarri switched Mertens from an underperforming talented wide player to a fantastic striker and he’s had the best few seasons in his career. I hope he can do the same should Martial come to Chelsea. 

If we sell Willian and bring in Martial that’s one of the best bits of business we’ve done for years.

Martial was really starting to come into his own, and then United brought in Alexis. He really had no business disrupting the City front three, so it made a little more sense for him to go to United. But I still think it hurt the squad.

But Sanchez had the distinction of making 2 teams worse last season. 

Would prefer Bailey from Bayern
