I now have saw chelsea have spent 800 million pounds on forwards since 2020 (Source is transfermarket) isn't that a bit bad considering our forwards aren't very good i know i got hyper to end season but I know if we are honest it is not good we have Jackson neto madueke and none of them are better than average it is very unhappy.

I would guess that the vast majority of CF spend was under the RA ownership and understandably not many fans will be critical of anything under that ownership.

Doesn't matter what they cost and Neto is a top player.

You are wrong tom - The money has been spent under clearlake/ boehly on forwards - they just haven't been very good- datro fofana, washington, mudryk, madueke, sterling, aubamayang, nkunku, angelo.
not a single success out of those just mentioned- all signed since takeover.
Palmer the only clear success in forward areas-neto seems to be doing ok recently and jackson is ok.
all in all just unsure how you could possibly try and deflect it to the previous ownership.

Kazblue, I wouldn’t have clue what we have spent on forwards over the seasons but the start date mentioned was 2020 and we had some horrible forward signings under Roman including, Lukaku and Ziyech.
The lines of Washington, Fofana, Mudryk and Sterling, I agree were disastrous but I’m happy with Jackson, Noni, Guiu, Delap and particularly Neto who I see as being top class. I do not consider Palmer as a forward.

Jackson Guiu and Noni are not going to take us to a higher level. Too early to assess Delap. I am not overly impressed with Neto: see how he does next season.

Both of our owners Mr boehly and Mr abramovic are fault for it they did not sign good strikers at all waist of money but the centre and mid signings were very good but neto is like a headless chook he is a flop but I hope he gets good.
