    I don’t think the new keeper is better... but I agree.

    I was more curious where they would be selling Navas. I have a hard time believing he would want to sit on the bench

    Chelsea paid 40 more for Kepa than they sold Courtois for?

    Yes, because they were pushed over a barrel by everyone involved.

    Spending £40mil to hopefully keep roughly the same level of GK is solid business.

    That's just an absurd amount of money to spend on a keeper, especially of his caliber. Just insane. How the fuck does that conversation even go?

    Hey Chelsea called about Arrizabalaga. I figured Courtois, Buffon and Ederson went for about 35. Fuck it, let's say 70 and see what happens.

    If you want financially responsible and no hope, follow the Kroenke mode. Everyone was hoping Roman would go away after the visa issues, and Arsenal supporter comments when he purchased Chelsea about him being their downfall would finally come true. Instead this week he goes HAM while the Arsenal football club died.

    Kepa is a class keeper, I don't have a problem with it.

    Who cares about transfer fees unless it's the rare extreme overpayment for a club that doesn't have much money.

    They have to be paid in full up front which doesn't happen with regular transfers so really its even more expensive.

    High work rate. Respectable World Cup for Nigeria. As he’s aged, I feel like his offensive capabilities have decreased somewhat but he missed time and then played with a knock last campaign. He was very effective opposite Marcos Alonso on the right wing for us in 2016.

    I would be a little surprised if Moses goes out on loan. We need to clear out some non-homegrown players.

    Spent 83.6M euros on Sissoko, Janssen, N'Koudou, and Big Dick Victor Wanyama, so 1/4. Sent Bentaleb out on loan that turned into a permanent transfer later. Yeah, that window did suck.
