Jadon Sancho

I am highly sceptical that we will manage to pull this off, as loads of top top teams will be after him. If we do it will be MASSIVE for the team and for the club.

 
Top 4 a must if we want him. Would we really keep ziyech Cho pulisic and sancho happy though

I think Real, Barca or Bayern entering the race is a much bigger threat than falling out of top 4.

If it's between us and United, I fancy our chances of selling ourselves to him, and I don't think he will be so short-sighted to decide his long term future on what could be six games.

 
Ziyech didn't cost much at all so now we will have 3 good wingers. Maybe Sancho is simply too big of a target for us and the last winger will be Boga which is also a good signing considering the price.

 
If we're going to spunk 100 million+ on Sancho, now we have Ziyech, i'd rather we spend that on say Lautaro Martínez a proper match winner for example

Now that we have Ziyech joining in the summer, I can't see us signing Sancho, they both play in the same position. With Willian and Pedro likely to leave, it would be possible to fit both of them in the squad, but they will be expecting to start every week. I think the only way Sancho joins us now is if we plan on playing Ziyech through the middle.

It would make sense for Ziyech to play through the middle. Lampard has already hinted at playing RLC deeper, so Ziyech with Mount as backup and Pulisic, CHO, and Sancho on the wing is realistic. Plus Ziyech could play RW, like you mentioned, so we still have 4 wingers.

 
Ziyech plus CHO, Pulisic and Sancho would be major upgrades of Willian and Pedro.

Hope we step up our interest and get this sorted as quickly as Ziyech.

 
He'll end up at Liverpool or Barca imo.

Barca need to replace Dembele, who is constantly injured, and Messi will be 33 next season.

Taking into account the number of clubs interested in Sancho, I highly doubt it'll go down smoothly.

Probably not, however if we meet Dortmunds price now and can talk to him right away might be enough to convince him talking to Lamps.

City are out of Europe for 2 seasons and UTD and sh*t, Liverpool well is in Liverpool and no one who knows the UK wants to live in that sh*t box.

He is a London boy and we have a good amount of England’s future stars so I’d normally agree but I think we look quite an attractive prospect for him. 

 
I think we are an attractive proposition but there are only two factors in a footballers decision:

1. How much can I make?

2. How much can I win?

Him being a childhood fan isn't really a factor. We have to show that of all the top clubs we are the best placed. 

For me if City and Liverpool are out we are a chance. No one in their right mind would go and play at United. They are a disaster with an awful manager who has a mish mash squad. 

That said it strikes me that Barca, Madrid or Bayern are more likely.

 
With Pulisic, Ziyech, CHO and possibly Boga, I don't think the club will even try to sign Sancho.

Latests reports indicate we won’t sign Boga. And the Ziyech signing really has no bearing on a potential Sancho signing.

 
Quite a few media outlets reporting we've opened talks with Dortmund over the transfer of Jadon Sancho.

Think Chelsea have set up a strategy to go aggressively after targets early as opposed to wait until the summer and get drowned out alongside the chasing pack.

Lets hope that this tactic works !!!

 
Why the f**k we do not negotiate when we are supposed to? Feels like we do deals when the windows are shut. A new Chelsea way.. No complaints if it works but it is unusual. If Marina pulls this off hats off to her once again.

 
Hard to negotiate from a position of 'listen we aren't allowed to sign anyone but MAYBE....'
