Griezmann isn't going anywhere for under 45 million pounds

I don't really get the Begovic signing.

He would certainly raise our swag factor. That's got to count for something.

If Courtois gets hurt, you want Jamal Blackman starting in the Premier League and Champions League?

I just think there's a range of potential signings between starting Blackman and signing Begovic. Plus I don't get it from Begovic's perspective. He could start for a few teams and now he agrees to play 2nd fiddle to Courtois

ETA: I should say he's an excellent player, I guess I don't understand the career move. It's certainly a positive for Chelsea, he provides high quality depth.

Yea it really is mind blowing, we aren't even really being rumored for anything which is unheard of in transfer season. It just makes no sense with a couple of very glaring weaknesses.

I agree, its pretty mind boggling. But don't complain. You just got yourself an incredible backup. Will work wonders for the League and FA games where Court needs a rest. I think this really helps your chances in the domestic cup competitions.

Does a goalie really ever "need" a rest?

I said it in the transfer thread but Pedro really is the type of player we need, though I really don't want him.

Pedro would not be our normal signing given his age (almost 28), but he would fill a need. Even if he isn't a regular starter, he would give tons of quality minutes and tremendous quality depth.

I am still keeping hope for Cuadrado...he played with some passion at the end of the season. I thought he had a nice game at the end until he got injured.

Anyone following the Fiorentina madness? They are now demanding RLC for a loan spell rather than the 4 million euro penalty they originally requested. We will never loan someone there again.

Some guys are vastly overpaid or Hazard needs a pay increase. The fact that Hazard and Filipe Luis are only 4 million pounds apart is dumb.

Also, Luis making 2x more than Dave and Ivon is stupid.

There may be some transfer fee stuff being rolled into these numbers that makes it more complicated than just wages.
