PSG that already have Cavani & rumoured to be eyeing Neynar with a 200M+ bid. Why will they be very serious about PEA for rumored price.

Laughing at Lacazatte because he was not an option for CFC. Doubt he was top 3 on list. Was always Lukaku, Morata, Belotti with PEA an after thought.

CFC have some leverage now they have secured a main target. yes Costa must leave but CFC are no longer desperate to sell IMO. Getting a new CF was not contingent on Costa leaving first. Costa sale was arguably not needed to finance Morata deal.

Athletic trying to low ball cfc & rightly so. But CFC can stand their ground for a more respectable fee.
Just out of curiosity, how did you come across this information?
Zero link to CFC should clue you in in spite of 70 to 80mill budget compared to 50+ mill lacazette.
Like this zero?

As an afterthought..could THAT text be a calculated move to pinch Morata into whining to leave? Remember he wanted a starting spot..

Since Chelsea was working with a budget of 70+ mill, the club was linked with just about every available top striker but Lacazette was never a serious consideration. If you followed Chelsea transfer dealings this summer, you'd know that only 4 names were being mentioned very consistently: Lukaku, Moratta, Belotti and Aubemayang. That's pretty much it.

Apparently Roman has sanctioned the sale of Matic to Man U. Probably for 50MP.

Very good signings so far. Another playmaker to replace Fabgreas would be golden. He is not the player he used to be and doesn't score goals. Perhaps Nainggolan.

That's sad that there's no way to mend the fences between Conte and Costa. It would have been great to see CFC line up in. 3-5-2 formation with Costa and Morata upfront. That would have been a heck of a frontline.

I honestly do not think both would have complemented each other well.

but I agree with CFC start exploring 3-5-2 or 3-4-1-2 with Cesc in the mix..
Lampard: 101 goals and counting.......
