Every decent player comes with an extortionate price tag nowadays - it's just a case of sifting through the chaff and working out if the player is worth it relatively, so to speak!
As for Sandro, I haven't seen him so can't really comment on him!
Top, top player.
Would be a great signing for Chelsea.
Bloody foreigners. What's he done? Nothing.
Sandro and Bakayoko would be the beat signings for me.
Still not convinced on Bakayoko. Would prefer we gave Chalobah a proper crack and if not then go all out for someone who is an upgrade on both Matic and Fabregas... Verratti.
According to the Evening Standard we are going to announce a major surprise signing on the 1st of July. Don't know who'll it be but if true that's great news.
That will be Bakayoko and Caballero. The Nike deal kicks on 1st Jul 2017, that's why the new signings are delayed.
As for Alex Sandro, just walk away from it. Stop wasting any more time, Juve clearly don't want to sell him.
You might be right Conte'nt but the way it says Surprise is doubting those 2 and Lukaku.

----------------------------------------------------------------------
So you honestly think that Chalobah is better than Bakayoko and would make more impact from midfield in the CL and PL? Beats me!
Bakayoko in my opinion will be the next Yaya Toure if Conte nurtures him well.
No contest/comparison between Bakayoko and Chalobah.
Really dunno why some Chelsea fans are obsessed with our youngsters. If they're good enough to compete with the best, they'd surely be called upon.
As for Veratti...I don't think we'll sign him. He'll prefer a move to either Barcelona or Juve.
Chelsea will be his 3rd option if the others fail.
Sandro is no Ashley Cole or Dani Elves so not that good.If we had bid that amount for Cavani that would be a different case scenario.
Not seen very much of him bar the odd bit of champions league where he did look good, but unless we are going 5-3-2 and we need our wing backs to be much more of an attacking threat, 60 million seems a lot for a full back. That being said every single players price is inflated at the minute, look at pickford and maguire
Bakayoko is rubbish and we should keep Matic for at least two more seasons.Also we should try to sign one player out of Icardi and Belotti.

What's your definition of rubbish? Bakayoko dribbles, got a decent pass, holds up and shields the ball better. Above all, a better box to box player than Matic.
So really, what's your definition of rubbish?
People just open their mouth and say absolute sh! Te!
And above all...he's young and will improve better with time.
Lack of foresight is a bad thing.

Completely disagree with the "if they're good enough" notion...if another player can occupy a spot and keep even a tried and test pro like Willian out of the team, what chance does an up and coming player like have if his position becomes stocked.
I'd have no problem if it was a player who was much much better that was taking the position but Bakayoko certainly isn't that, he is a better player but the margin isn't great enough to convince that Chalobah with consistent game time couldn't compete at his current level or better.
Well said Kuki and I prefer Matic.Bakayoko is not that good.Lets just say I do not fancy him.I would much rather see Chelsea sign Cabaye than signing Babayoko and many Chelsea fans would want to see Matic continue if we are going to sign Babayoko.

Whilst its great having flashy players with big names its also important to have players who have the DNA of the club engrained in them from a young age.
Why spend £35m on a player who we dont need, Is he an upgrade on Matic defensively? I'm not so sure he Is and he's definitely not an upgrade on Fabregas offensively.
If we are serious about mounting a realistic challenge in Europe we need to be aiming higher than what we already have. Players in the Vidal/Pjanic/Verratti/Nainggolan would.

The likes of Bakayoko have had an opportunity to show what they can do - an opportunity not afforded to youngsters at Chelsea.
We could have the next Pele under our noses but still wouldn't take the time to find out!

I think Chelsea have probably already agreed some deal but are waiting for their kit sponsors to change in order to present them.
It's become a norm for some Chelsea fans to criticise most players heavily linked to us before they even kick a ball for us.
It's always: 'he's not yet proven in the PL', or 'he's rubbish'
For me, Bakayoko has the talent to be a very good CM in the future if he's nutured well.
There's no better coach out there to help him fulfill his potential than Conte.
People are so quick to judge.
I repeat: Sandro and Bakayoko will be great signings.
Will conte be around to nurture Bakayoko tho? I think he'll walk sooner rather than later, probably after next season.

If you don't judge, then don't judge our younger players!
And you are in no place to make such promises - no one knows how a certain player will fit into a different team from another!
