Why do people keep saying this? We’ve signed a grand total of 1 senior player with an eye for the first team (Nicolas Jackson) this window. We’ve sold about 15 players and haven’t really signed anyone yet.They just can’t stop spending
Maybe because you signed 28 players last season. You've also signed Nkunku this summer by the way.Why do people keep saying this?

£35 mill? I would say that is relatively cheap. Annoying if that was our first choice if Maguire left.I thought the idea of this guy on our shortlist was that he was going to be relatively cheap as a replacement for Maguire. He's not turned out to be that cheap.
Neither will be starting, though. Silva and Colwill will almost 100% be our starting pairing.Tweet

Nkunku was signed in January and announced in the summer.Maybe because you signed 28 players last season. You've also signed Nkunku this summer by the way.
It was officially confirmed in June and he joined you in July.Nkunku was signed in January and announced in the summer.
How cheap were you expecting? This is why we rejected £20m for Maguire, replacing him with a decent rotation option won't come cheap.I thought the idea of this guy on our shortlist was that he was going to be relatively cheap as a replacement for Maguire. He's not turned out to be that cheap.
38 million for a 25 year old out of France doesn't strike me as a particular bargain. It's just kind of..okay.How cheap were you expecting? This is why we rejected £20m for Maguire, replacing him with a decent rotation option won't come cheap.
We barely have any midfielders.Chelsea forming an all-mid team.
I heard he turns like the Titanic.Heard Diasi makes Maguire look like Usain Bolt?
It was Kim. Not that it matters now.£35 mill? I would say that is relatively cheap. Annoying if that was our first choice if Maguire left.
Him leaving is also dependent on us receiving a good bid. As much as I'd like him gone, it's hardly his fault.So thats another CB target for us gone because maguire wont leave.

Good, dont want us to sign him, he is about the same level as Badashaille. Remember people raing about him on here a couple of years ago. He is hugely over rated, Badashaille is actually a better centre back than him for me.Tweet

Mid is meant as mediocre.We barely have any midfielders.
Badiashile you mean?Good, dont want us to sign him, he is about the same level as Badashaille.
I think their new owner must be an FM player. Seems to really get off on making shit loads of signings every transfer window just for the thrill of itI remember people saying that this guy wasn't that good when he was linked to us earlier in the summer. Still, this Chelsea situation is really bizarre. How can they be signing and selling everyone?
How is it scattergun?.Chelsea not giving up on their scattergun approach.
Sometimes panic is warranted! It's obviously a buy in reaction to losing Fofana.This feels like a panic buy because of the Fofana injury.
Age also makes it obvious, at first I thought it was another 20-21 yr old you could flip later on. Seems like you'll be expecting an instant impact.Sometimes panic is warranted! It's obviously a buy in reaction to losing Fofana.
Just a decent CB who doesn't get injured all the time will do if I'm honest. He doesn't need to be incredible.Age also makes it obvious, at first I thought it was another 20-21 yr old you could flip later on. Seems like you'll be expecting an instant impact.
Just buying anyone they’ve heard might be talented thinking odds are they can’t all be flops.How is it scattergun?.
This shouldn't be a surprise to anyone considering it's Chelsea.
