  • Batshuayi impressed end of season but he's the same age as Lukaku and Kane and nowhere near as close to being the finished article as those two. He's being judged as if he just stepped up from the U21s.

    Don't get me wrong, I like what I've seen but not sure if he's going to be the world class striker that we need.
    Same counts for Kakkers.

  • but how is he going to get better if he doesn't get the game time?

    Pretty sure you're not going to be spending (if @Pistanator gets his wish) £100m on Lukaku for him to sit on the bench, or compete for the lone striker role, with, if as @>>>>>> desires you get another world class striker (Morata? Lacazette? Mbappe?)

    Are chelsea in such financial straits that Abramovich needs to balance the books? Do you have to sell Costa to finance the purchase of a replacement striker?

    They'll need to sell him to avoid falling foul of the FFP regs. Owners can't just pump money into the club.

  • Not sure how Mbappe would slot in, Morata would be a better fit... Word is he's going to Manure now anyway...

    I'll take both, thanks...
