Alex Sandro

HOLY MOLY GUYS!
DON'T GET YOUR HOPES UP BUT...
There is a rumour that's just sprang to life that Bonucci's transfer to AC Milan could fall through due to some bank problems or whatever, now I don't want to get people's hopes up but if this is true, the odds will surely rise for signing Alex Sandro if Juve end up keeping Bonucci

Wow. This is a major twist. Bonucci has already said a lot of things about Juventus. It will be awkward.

 
I read that too, I'm pretty sure the chinese billionaire has the 35 million, it will go through,  p.s. why the f**k didn't we buy him..

 
Day 9
03/08/2017
Roses are Red
Chelsea's window is slow
Have we signed Alex Sandro yet?
No. 
Ha, I like the way you're trying to add a little spicy to these updates.  Maybe tomorrow you could use a Cast away/Horror type theme?

Haha yeah I'd like to do something different each day, make it fresh.
What did you have in mind by the Horror type theme?

Not sure it just reminds me of a diary you'd pick up in a game like Resident Evil showing the day by day decline of the inhabitants.  Maybe something along the lines of - Day 10 Still no sign of Sandro, things seem to be going from bad to worse.  The people in here are acting strange, fighting each other, I'm not sure they're even human anymore.

I like that, I'll probably do it on Saturday, I've got something planned for tomorrow  :wink:

 
Ambition in 2004 was mainly win the league and CL. Agreed the club is different from 2004, but our ambition should not be the same now ?. really ?.

Well I would like Chelsea to win the CL again as well as the league, which would require signing top quality players to improve the squad. As I mentioned we have bought and sold, leaving our net spend very low in comparison, so why not throw a crazy bid at Sandro (£60-70 million) we can't get every player at a lower price, sometimes you have to pay what is required for top quality. Man City amongst others have shown this.
We should still be going for titles for sure but once you've spent nearly a billion pounds and win the biggest one for the first time it's harsh to expect the board/owner to continue going all out at every turn again and again. Especially since we're no longer the richest club around and we're trying to turn a profit. City won't continue spending 200m a summer when/if they win the CL, that seems like a big goal to tick off the list. It's also worth mentioning we're talking in context of Conte building a sqaud he wants so it behooves us to spend a little more now and dial it back once he's got the majority of the squad in place. 

I'm thankful Roman and his staff are still around working hard to improve the club and frankly I don't see PSG or City's owners doing the same after the above scenario. 

I think we see a couple more signings before too long, as you mentioned our net has been very balanced especially when compared to both Manc clubs and that's something that doesn't get brought up when you see the transfer spending 'graphics'. 

My hesitation with Sandro from the beginning has been that there's no indication they want to sell and that he's pushing for a move. Put in a final bid of 80m and then move on

The board won't do that if they did we would get him tomorrow, city would, not us we will tinker around trying to get a "bargain" adding a million here and there until either they are pissed off or the window ends.

We are going to get ripped off either way just f**king bite the bullet and make a bid too good to refuse.

That's why City buy 3 wingbacks/full backs in one window, all of whom we wanted and yet we get f**k all and they get the lot.

If it wasn't for us pulling off morata it would be another underwhelming window, to let a rival get 3 players we are linked to and apparently made offers on 2 of them in positions so critical to us is very poor.
