I can't envision Dybala coming here. He would have to take less money than he could get abroad, and for what exactly?

Sticking it to Juve, staying in a country where he feels at home and knows the language, fashion week?

I don’t think it’s as crazy as people make it sound. Let’s be honest he really isn’t an EPL player unless it’s at a Man City. I don’t see the big 3 in Spain chasing him right now either.

Dybala is not an elite player. On his good days he might play like a star, but consistency is not one of his best strengths.
Agreed, in terms of consistency, but these are due to being played out of position and injuries. But on his day he's exceptional with the sort of skill set desperately need in terms of flair and creativity and striking the ball. Given our finances we simply can't do any better.
Not fair to compare Raspadori to him, very different phase in career and Raspadori never had a top team around to play with.
Fair point but what is Rasp exceptional at? Two footed, good dribbling but no special quality even against lesser opposition. Case in point Zaniolo, inconsistent and injury prone but he is has shown of "elite moments". Camavinga, musiala, foden, Bellingham, even our very own barella. Doesn't matter whether you have a top team around you or not, your exceptionalism should be evident.

So seems like Lukaku is being linked to us again.He rather go to Serie A than La Liga it’s quoted. Pushing for a Inter reunion it seems. I personally don’t see him playing for Chelsea next season either. I hope we don’t go for him in my opinion, what u guys think?

Given that La Liga option is limited to Atletico Madrid, I think I see why he'd want to return here.

I agree . I just hope we don’t pursue him as I see him dropping his level without Conte.

Biasin was also the one who said that Gosens will not come, specialy not at January. Some week later Gosens was official.
Because it wasn't an option when he said it. Circumstances change.

Lukaku will be 29 this summer. Unless it is a loan move for a season, it doesn't make sense for Inter to go for him.

Also Chelsea being kind of banned from transfers at the mo, it is unlikely they will let Lukaku go.

I think that door should remain closed. This coach needs more technical players.

^^ no, players will not seek termination because they are getting payed. No right to do so, because they are under contract.


So Chel$ki cannot offer new contracts, like for Rudiger, but they could extend Azpilicueta, thanks to having a clause in the existing contract that can be triggered.


When was the last time Dybala did that? To be honest, whenever I watched him in UCL he failed to deliver at top level (knock-out stage), let alone make the difference.

Dybala could be great to unlock couple of Serie A defences to be honest, he has those nice shots from distance. I`m sure Marotta would like to sign him and offload Sanchez.

Not fair to compare Raspadori to him, very different phase in career and Raspadori never had a top team around to play with.

this is what I was talking about

We’ve been linked to Noah Okafor. Apparently we are putting in a bid. Won’t hold my breath.



Not sure I believe it but someone with pace would be amazing.

Highlights look good.

Playing a front three with Toro interchangeable and CF like Dzeko/Scammaca/Lukaku would be amazing.

Anyone really rate him, that has seen him in multiple games?
