If that happens, you can add him to the "what ever happened to..." thread in a few years.In place of Watkins? If he keeps up this form for rhe rest of the season and Chelsea are open to selling him, I think Southampton will be priced out of a move by clubs with more money. There were rumours of Arsenal being interested yesterday.
I dont get the referenceI like Mars bars but not in a Marianne Faithful way.

It’s a double edged sword. That same system has meant they’ve seen the likes of KdB, Salah, Rice, Matic, Lamptey, Livramento all leave the club. It’s also meant they had to pay out almost £100m to get Lukaku back in, (and another £30m to get Matic back in).Chelsea’s model of investing in lots of young players and loaning them out is so so so good.
Chelsea were burnt badly by Salah and especially KDB. It's why a load of these academy guys being sold are being sold with some kind of buy-back clause.It’s a double edged sword.

KdB in particular has been a thorn in Chelsea’s side since he’s been at Man City.

The club sanctioned it so will have to take some of the blame as well.KDB and Salah aren't Chelsea fault, it was Mourinho.
He just came back from an injury? And did get minutes the first two games as well so ‚not going to get any chances‘ is a bit of a hyperbole.What is Chelsea's stance on this guy? He was prepared to go to West Ham earlier in the transfer window but that move collapsed for whatever reason. Seeing as ETH likes his target forwards, surely we can make a deal for this guy with Ronaldo going the other way? He might as well leave if he is not going to get any chances while Havertz stinks up the place.
Didn't know about the injury part. My bad. He didn't start any games until now; even today he was an unused sub and there was serious talk of him going to West Ham so thought maybe Tuchel doesn't rate him. Ronaldo is only unhappy because wants to play CL football. You guys can offer that, pretty sure he won't say no. Ten Hag wants a striker who can hold the ball well. The strikers we were seriously linked to this summer are of a similar mould as well. Martial can do that job but he is injured most of the time.He just came back from an injury?

We need our forwards to press and work quite a lot off the ball so not sure an unhappy Ronaldo for mega wages sitting most of the time on the bench is preferable over a motivated Broja - who could even become a starter for a competitor if he really fits ETH system that well - for much lower wages.
Well, as I said he just came back from an injury for an extremely tight game so not sure if it‘s noteworthy that a likely not at 100% fit player should expect to get gametime. And let‘s be real here: he has to earn his place in a stacked team so why should he immediately start matches over Havertz?Didn't know about the injury part. My bad.

Agreed on the whole, but you guys are/were trying to get in Gordon and Auba as well which only makes Broja fall down the pecking order if those transfers go through.Well, as I said he just came back from an injury for an extremely tight game so not sure if it‘s noteworthy that a likely not at 100% fit player should expect to get gametime.

Not sure if Tuchel ever spoke about him in public so at least I‘d take those West-Ham loan stories with a grain of salt but even so: we lack a true #9 striker as an option and as long as we don‘t have one (Auba for example) I don‘t think Broja will go anyway. He did play well as a sub so far so if he stays and nobody else comes in I would be amazed if he‘s not about to start a game here and there.
Ronaldo ain‘t coming as long as Tuchel has a say in the transfers - which he still does. We had one too many diva last season which did his part in derailing a very good season.
To be fair to him: that happened after he did a hell lot of running for what? 80mins with about 50mins of those being with one man down.Havertz, to his credit, has been pretty brave and competent trying to hold the ball up and play with back to goal.
But that beautiful little triangle Cucurella worked to get him an open run at goal today…. and tripped on his own feet…Havertz just isn’t a striker.
That may be a cause for him to get loaned out - but certainly (my guess) not before those deals happened and most certainly not in exchange for Cristiano.Agreed on the whole, but you guys are/were trying to get in Gordon and Auba as well which only makes Broja fall down the pecking order if those transfers go through.
