"Real Madrid are smoothing out the last details of the operation to bring Eden Hazard to the Bernabéu this summer but they have been unsuccessful in their bid to persuade Chelsea to drop their asking price for the Belgian - 100 million euros plus add-ons. Madrid proposed including Mateo Kovacic in the deal but Chelsea prefer a straight transfer before they start negotiations for the Croatian midfielder, who spent last season on loan at Stamford Bridge."

Fook.....


Bye bye Eden - thanks for everything!

Hope it's not serious for Reece James.

Chelsea director Marina Granovskaia said: ‘Although it is with sadness we say goodbye to Eden and we made it absolutely clear to him the club wished him to stay, we respect the decision he has made to take on a new challenge in a different country and follow his childhood dream of playing for Real Madrid.

‘The memories he leaves us with will not fade. He provided all who watched Chelsea play with great entertainment and many match-winning contributions, and for that we thank Eden enormously. He has been a model professional throughout his time at the club, a wonderful individual to have around and a joy to work with. We look forward to welcoming him back to Stamford Bridge in the future.’

So we still have time to crook him and/or lace his food with drugs or something?

Anyone have an impending sense of doom?

Not sure I have much confidence in the board to make the changes. Seemingly we have facked up the appeal and will serve a transfer ban anyway

Reece James odoi and rlc long term injuries so the whole "give youth a chance" falls a bit flat

Sarri on way out. Not Confident in the board hiring the right person

Hazard

Willian being offered a long term contract
Pedro Willian giroud over 31

Barkley

Transfer ban

Roman banned from the UK

I wish the club would come out and give the fans some comfort

No I am actually looking forward to life without Hazard. Easily the best player in the premier for the last 4/5 years but I feel as a club we became too reliant on him and thus a tad predictable. I would love to see 4/5 players pick up the mantle like Liverpool, who I feel improved after they got rid of their 1 exceptional player. And even Chelsea of old had lots of very good players rather than 1 amazing player

DUFFYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

Good point

However

The Liverpool board implemented a long term plan
Based on klopps vision

We have Bruce buck and marina running things and can only see quick money

You are correct in what you say but the current set up is awful

Funny thing is is of we could replace hazard we probably would buy coutinho

I can't really see us being anywhere near competitive next season with the current crop. Board and players

Need a big change this summer and facing soooooonn

But radio silence from the club
