Signing Cole Palmer from Man City. Surprising.

Was hoping for a striker. Head scratcher.

No way Cole Palmer was at the top of our list. MC didn't see him as a threat joining Chelsea. It's definitely a head-scratcher.

we have 3 strikers plus Nkunku eventually. you could certainly argue one of Washington or Broja should be loaned and maybe a veteran brought in, but i imagine they want to see what theyve got in Broja and Jackson specifically before making any moves at the position.

def missed on the Palace kid, Smith-Rowe, and Barcola.

one of our newer directors/scouts came from City, so at least theres someone there who knows what they bought.

Expensive for a MCFC 2nd tier player that’s unlikely to see much PT for us.

Really glad that Gallagher, Maatson, and Chalobah all stuck around. Ian is eventually going to be a stud.

well hes certainly got a better shot at chelsea than city, all hes gotta do is be marginally better than mudryk or madueke to see plenty of mins. or carney. which is a low bar at the moment unfortunately. but yeah, big overpay.

same with the cobham kids staying, tho maatson not signing a new deal or taking the Burnley transfer could bite the club in the arse if he leaves on a free next year.

Chelsea’s bandwagon fans gotta be looking for a new team at this point.

How do you get so few shots on target with so many attempts?

its maddening to watch how much they struggle scoring

its going to take a while for Poch to figure out his best lineup
still have way too many players

not sure about gusto long term, need reece james back ASAP

cause nothing was coming from inside the box. Jackson really had a stinker and, as expected, our wingers provided nothing.

This team fricking sucks again. Poch can’t fix it. 1B pounds can’t fix it. Idiot American owners can’t fix it. Relegation is absolutely in play this season. Absolute disgrace.

It’s a real possibility. At this rate I can’t see us getting more than 15 points.

I won’t discount Poch just yet, but he has to be smart enough to know that most teams will just keep parking the bus on us.

It's maddening seeing what Bohely and Co. are doing to this team. The arrogance of this ownership to walk in and spend money at this rate is insane.

I was downvoted on this board when I said Chelsea should have sold to Jim Ratcliffe

Correct, the problem can't fix itself.
