Tammy clearly better than washed up Vardy?

Would come back to haunt us. Hope the Dortmund loan rumors or true. He needs consistent game run.

He's already one of the most gifted wingers in the prem, sad we couldn't see Odoi - Lukaku - Havertz for a single game.

When you're buying players left right and centre it's no wonder that homegrown players want to leave. They know that they are not valued by Chelsea and won't get game time. Money is everything, 20+ year olds need to play.

Saul x Kaku. 8/10 window.

Sevilla tried to twist our arm for Koundé and we weren't going. This is after he rejected Spurs and skipped a game to go on international break early to force a move. He fought for us, wasn't meant to be, for now anyways.

I'll give Saul some more time, but he dropped a shocker on Saturday.

I'm also done with this Hakim Ziyech experience. He can be sold this summer.

In terms of loan army news:

Conor Gallagher had the Spurs on strings in a performance where he controlled the middle of the park

Armando Broja showed flashes too. Hope he earns his way into that starting 11 soon.

Nearly 4 minute comp already curated from this 18 year olds first five professional matches. Superstar already. Him and Levi Colwill are two of the best young defenders in world football.

another example of a young talented player whose future has been killed by Chelsea. They should have sold him on years ago as they have with Tammy.

Most rumours are BS and just clickbait or media selling rubbish.

Agreed! The guys at the False9 did a ranking of media sources which is helpful. It seems about right to me.

Agree with that, Ranking seems right. And yeah, rumours are always there, but most of them are BS.

He had a massive achilles injury.

Would have been a nailed on starter and very very good if it never happened.

He looked powerful and confident though against Villa. It's interesting because he's always been deployed higher up the pitch, but in the last game he occupied the Jorgi sitter role. He's unbelievable calm at receiving the ball under pressure, such a nifty dribbler and can spray line breaking passes. Maybe Tuchel just discovered something... But I'd love to see him play alongside Jorgi also.

Getting ahead of myself. Need to see it with some regularity and maybe against better opposition.

The guy was dumped on loan to various clubs since 2017. Even though he played and looked decent for England.

His problem is that he is class in a slow game where his team can dictate but he lacks speed and against better teams he really isn't that good. Flat track champion.

Just to add he's a bottom half of the prem player which is why he doesn't get starts at Chelsea apart from against lower level teams (like Aston Villa's B team). He would be a great pick up for a championship team looking for promotion. He could be a star for a season there.

When Chelsea concede first, they don't really have a plan B.
