I'm not convinced on Werner. I haven't seen much punch from him in the box. I would love to be proved wrong.

Werner is not a box striker. He is a wing forward or support striker who prefers to play as a shadow to a bigger striker

VargasVee:



It almost sounds like a mockery, what you're saying. There's no breaking the trend in making quality signings, or replacing senior players.

The youths have been given a chance, and will continue to get more chances than they ever have in the past. We're not a mid-table team ffs. You've got to mix the youths with more experienced players.

I am just hoping that the club will not lose sight of the project that it has started with Lampard.

The fact is that Werner's signing threatens Tammy's place in the squad. No way a 50m player will be kept on the bench.
I'm just saying that the club shouldn't go on a spending spree that will cost our young players already playing.
For years we have been clamouring for our youths to be involved seeing as we had the best, for the first time, it is happening, I just hope we consolidate the trend started and not derail it.

Homesteady, please post the link to this page. I'd like to read everything from the start abeg.

Wow, if he had signed Jaap Stam and Brian Laudrup, that would have been amazing.

I was a Chelsea fan then. We were always in the top4 to top6 but Jaap Stam and Brian Laudrup could have given us that extra leap forward.

He said he was sacked over contract issues? He really liked Chelsea sha, he said he hasn't forgiven his friend concerning that sack issue.

Swissh:

Really really interesting and lovely. I love how he called Chelsea a small club.

Look at this shameless Assnal fan.

Nezzzar:

You're talking in the rubbish

I remember when you had sonofnezzar, daughterofnezzar, mrsnezzar, firstsonofnezzar etc.

I will make sure you exhaust all the Zs on opening new accounts.

So Werner basically went for the third-choice option in Chelsea. Not considered good enough by Bayern. Turned down by Liverpool. Found his level at Chelsea. All the best to una.

LMAO. Thunder fire Abramovich for letting a tin pot club like Chelsea gain relevance.

Show respect to Agent Rudiger please.

I hate seeing Chelsea fans happy because of Chelsea

Free your heart from hate.

Na you go tire if she means business. It takes less than 40 secs to ban each alternate.

it literally takes less down 1 minute to open a new account here also if you know how.. it's will just be a game of who get tired first.

That's why it took literally all the mods in the forum to take the scammer guy down and still couldn't.

Griffon:
No jokes.

don't believe it until he puts pen to paper.

Nah. Werner only chose you guys because the clubs of his dreams didn't want him. Like when you pick Unilag and UI for Jamb, but you get picked by FUTA. No disrespect to any FUTA alumnus in the house.

Liverpool didn’t make a bid probably due to high wages in their club already. Stop saying what you don’t know. Hazard preferred Chelsea to Man U then so it is normal for a player to like a particular club.

Werner is a blue!

I’m not too optimistic with Warner’s signing, looking back to how his kind like Morata, shevchenko, Torres, Kezman, Crespo didn’t perform to expectation in the past.

I believe we are more suited with physical center forward, it’s now more of a tradition in the club.

150k a week for Werner.


Thought Abraham wanted same and we were complaining

Werner is not a high-priority target for Liverpool so why should they wreck their finances because of him. The point is, all things being equal, Werner wouldn't have chosen Chelsea over Bayern and Liverpool.

That is because Warner like liverpool personally, it doesn’t have anything to do with your theory. Get that.

It's hard to see that happening. Youths will be slowly eased into first team, as it should be.

While your concerns about Tammy is valid, it would have made more sense if Tammy is the finished product, or they both have similar play patterns.

Tammy doesn't thrive with little spaces, and he definitely prefers the hold-up play unlike Timo who gives of these little passes and run-off plays in tight areas. Also for the fact that he can operate across other attacking positions and they certainly would play together when it requires them to.

I see no threat about his signing to Tammy. Matter fact, this would even push him to improve more, and there's no ruling out to a solid partnership they both could form.

Swissh:

Lol. May Kroenke become even more miserly. You people need to swim in the murky waters of bottom ten.

Tammy should better fix up and look sharp.

Though it looks like it may be pulisic to initially take the fall

But any form of lenge lenge, playing like a baby giraffe ball must end.

I hope Tammy has been eating complex carbs and carrying weight this Corona period.

He should aim to grab like them ibrahimovic and Jon Carew

hensben:

Ok, sir

Swissh:

Wrong move for Werner if true. Given the Euros is now next year ,it would actually make sense for Werner to stay put at Red bull for another year and cement his place as Germany’s starting striker for that tournament

Big risk if he comes to the premier league, struggles to adapt and losses his place for Germany.

I see where you're coming from but who really cares about the national team?

He's becoming a Chelsea player and that's what really matters most bro.

Bar getting out numbered in the middle of the park, I won't mind rolling out in a 4-2-4.

Ziyech - Tammy - Werner - Pulisic.

That's some serious threat right there.

Raumdeuter, the news littering football Twitter is that Manyoo and Chelsea are ahead of Bayern in the race for Kai Havertz....

Omo I'm not going to celebrate until this guy actually signs the dotted lines.

I still have PTSD from Robinho and Hulk.


Let's get a top quality LB Now after this and maybe, just maybe, we might be able to compete seeing as our midfield is stacked.....

That's the guy I personally want.

Only problem is he no get right leg. But havertz is like a white Pogba without the stupid haircut and atilogwu dance moves.

He's tall, strong, very fast, and hussles. He plays any position in midfield and any wing, and even number 9.

Him, and Kante could be electric in midfield

Nahhh too early to say.

Only Tammy is somewhat a proven commodity in England.

I dey look that ziyech with caution sha, but if he works out, he could be beautiful

Nezzzar:

How many does he wanna snatch from me

He should chill joor

Na you biko Nebuchadnezzar!

So na you dey control all NL chicks sotay mod dey player hate?

I can't even remember the exact detail but those days dragging financials with your club too much was seen as disloyalty unlike these days when contract talks can last 2 years. Back then, players just go to meet the manager and the manager will tell them what they will be paid, and they shake hands there and then. For Gullit contract discussion to be dragging on 6 months then was probably too long for that era. Mind you his contract was expiring that summer so they should have just let him see it out.
