Anyone else completely nonplussed by Chelsea's signings? I can see that they are keeping pace with us in terms of having a comparable starting eleven, but I'm struggling to buy the narrative that they are pulling clear.
Up to now they have signed a Luke Shaw level left back, a soon to be 36 year old centre half on a free, another centre half who isn't going to play, a right winger who you wouldn't compromise Greenwood's talent/the possible acquisition of Sancho for and a striker who is good, but no better than what we already have in Martial. Havertz would be a really good signing, but again, we have Bruno. As it stands, we also have three goalkeepers on our books who are better than anything they have.
Chelsea do however have superior squad depth to us and it is this above anything else that may have them finishing above us. We knew this anyway though.
