Some big names linked to moves towards end of the window, can't help but be jealous, I don't even want coutinho but I certainly don't want arsenal having him and Pepe and aubamayang and Lacazette and United with and upgrade on there defence and still in search for a big signing. Ed as it's been quiet and we have no transfer business what's latest on our appeal or the situation?
{Ed002's Note - There is nothing new.}

I try not to think or worry about things I can’t control.
I don’t care about any other teams signings and I’m sure some of them will end up being duds.
Other than my slight concerns about our centre forwards, I’m happy with our squad.

Ed002, if I may ask, what position has Ampadu been brought in to play at Leipzig?
{Ed002's Note - No idea.}

Arsenal have upgraded their attack, however, defensively they are even more measly now. Unless they sort this out in the next two days. I suspect Tierney and another CB will arrive.
Man Utd have upgraded their defence, however, with Lukaku going AWOL they will struggle to find goals. Similar to us in that sense. Eriksen is an auto upgrade for them if it happens.
Man City and Liverpool will be the two top teams again this season. Spurs are pushing hard and I think by the end of the transfer window there will be a cause to be jealous Matt. Let's hope spurs don't pull off Dybala and Coutinho.
We just need to hope our strikers find the net. Hopefully defensively we can be solid for the campaign.

Chelsea will need depth in the squad, considering how other teams are fortifying their squad. If the club isn't moving to freeze the ban which I guess is late; and if Bakayoko and Batshuayi staying- will not attract any 'penalties', I STRONGLY subscribe that we keep Bakayoko and Batshuayi this season and not take wild risk. We can't profit or gain all round considering the situation that we find ourselves in.

The vast majority of fans wanted young players to be given a chance and hopefully this season they will get their chance to impress.
It’s not easy to buy the best players in the world and give youth a chance at the same time.
I’m really excited to see our team perform this season and my guess is every fan deep down feels exactly the same.
COME on MY MIGHTY BLUES.

Just mean that Ziyech dybala eriksen coutinho fekir Fernándes lukaku even Neymar are all available I’d have been available this summer and we can’t do anything, it’s just funny as I don’t even want coutinho / dybala but I don’t want rivals to have them, adding match winners to there team,

The interesting one is Zaha - if Zaha doesn't leave Palace this window, it can only be that he's joining us next summer.

Yeah but 70m for a player with stats no better than Pedro, would he play down the middle at us. Doubt it. I’d like Zaha, £35m plus Michy, gets one of the books and one in. The other bad thing is we have to sit through this in January. Unless some sort of miracle happens,

I might be wrong Matt but I think we have appealed but not asked for the ban to be frozen while the appeal process takes place.
So, you never know the ban could be cut to ONE window and then we could sign players in the next window.

That would be some good news TomB, fingers crossed.

Would be quite surprised if Spuds get Dybala and Lo Celso after already spending £70m on Ndombele. With Sessegnon that would take their spending to close to £250m.
