Amougo would seem to be a replacement for Santos at Strasbourg when Santos joins Chelsea this summer. Santos is human, it makes sense to introduce him to the squad in a proper manner this summer vs in the middle of this season. Set him up for success not failure.
@@mthorpe06 this point exactly. Why take him out of a side where’s he’s playing week in week out, he’s even been captain - to get minimal minutes at Chelsea. He’ll be integrated properly come the summer.
missed a massive chance to strength key areas to go all out for top 4 which we desperately need! then go and sign a kid from france for midfield cover when we’ve already got arguably the best young midfielder in france on loan at Strasbourg in Andrey santos

George, we must realise that Chelsea is primarily an Investment club, that has a weekend football team. We only buy players that have the potential to be sold for more in the future. Let's not cool ourselves. City and Villa spent money, we bought a teenager who has only learned recently to wipe himself
@@Vincento00 because people are used to Chelsea transfer copium at this point. For years we’ve papered over the cracks by signing a load of players and it gets the fans all excited. The reality is, the appropriate striker for Chelsea Football Club isn’t available this January. We’re better off working with what we have and we can re-assess in the summer.
Almost snap, I’ve been supporter since 67. Seen the good the bad and the ugly. Also seen the great which now seems to have moved over the horizon at a pace☹️
Supported since 71. Yes, Club is unrecognisable. Now a world top 10 club, great quality players throughout, great stadium, expectation of success every season. Unrecognisable from the shit of the 70s and 80s. ... still the same miserable, whining fan base as we put up with in the Shed in the dark days though.
@wilsonfamily1762 all full of player's with no leadership or no ambitions ,my arse, even the owner's have no idea of who we are, all of that came from Abramovich and they dont what to do with it
@@KG-vn8ou '67 here too and its the first time I can feel that off field issues totally have taken over from what we focus on and support. Its like going through a 'football' dose of Covid all over again. A totally weird 2 or 3 years and 100% NOT Chelsea Football Club.
@ I agree. From my perspective the fact these owners have got themselves in such a bind with crap buying decisions they prefer to sell the academy players to help get themselves out of the hole they dug themselves. All we have now is a bunch of very expensive mercenaries. It’s a shame.
Just to make it clear. Chelsea NEVER announced the signing of Amougou. The only thing that was announced is the here we go from Fabrizio. He is still officially a St. Etienne player.
Chelsea fans: What do you think of this. For next year!

I believe year two we vill. And I know the problem with Greenwood. Let me know a better right winger that can produce goal/assists. That can suits us bettar.
George this could work well 4 Chelsea now concentrate on this squad that he has now as the squad before was too big to manage Chelsea have been spoilt over the years and we expect signings every transfer window not sustainable so I see the direction but we still do need a few experience players in there hopefully the older boys can step up and the younger boys can look up to them and work with it let's see how we do against Brighton in the cup and the next few games hopefully sticks with jurgenson in goal. I would love to buy the juventus left winger what a player . CFC for life JK West London man
Nkunku's injury has really messed him up. He is not just the same guy again. Not the person we saw at bundesliga. He keep passing the ball backwards instead of going forward.
@@madziaciapko or he just isnt as good as you idiots make him to be. His same level player as werner. Semi decent speed but nothing else, no dribble no finish no anything
Mathis was bought to send to Strasbourg in the summer when Santos joins us. It’s annoying but let’s not act like Mathis is in the cfc lineup this year unless serious injury issues. Not necessarily a comment towards you George. Just agreeing w you lol.
Problem is that what happens if Caicedo and/or Enzo get injured? KDH is the replacement who also gets injured quite a bit. If one of them and KDH get injured what do we do? That's the issue
We were never going to get santos back in January! We have an affiliation with Strasbourg and he’s been there best player! The owners will want to support Strasbourg as well and taking him away to sit in our bench won’t be perceived well. Leaving him there was the right call, and no doubt both players will swap current clubs by July. Lesley will be sold or loaned again
As fans we all want to see signings that improve the team. However, with the club spending big and often badly in previous windows, and then missing out on CL revenue for 2 years (no front of shirt sponsor this year), I think PSR is a real issue for us. The clubs never going come out and admit: 1) we are in real difficult meeting PSR 2) for next season or two we are only aiming to be competing for top 4 or 6-ish, rather than really trying to win anything major. Actually Enzo did say in an interview that the "schedule" was to push for top 4 next season. However, looking at how we've operated over the last 2 windows tells me that is probably the case. The last 2 window can mainly described as "PSR dancing": Over the summer - got Felix to allow us to sell Gallagher (after failing to do a swap with Villa for Duran & Gallagher) - got Kellyman to allow us to sell Maatsen - KDH's yearly cost offset by selling Golding to Leicester - Tosin on free to use or likely sell on future - a swath of youngsters who we think can increase in value (Veiga, Jorgensen, Wiley, Penders) - cashing in on Lukaku, Angelo, pure-profit Hall - desperately trying and sell Broja & Chalobah (for pure profit) - forcing out Chilwell and Sterling (because of high wages) - try and get Osimhen for 2 packets of foodstamps There were only really 2 signing to improve the team: - Neto (who I'm guess we got decent payment terms on) - Sancho (who was an opportunistic signing, loan and then a low fee compare to his previous hype) Jan window - Loaning out under utilised players for loan fees, wage savings and improving future sale value (Veiga, Disassi, Felix, Carney) - Selling Casadei - Only buying a young midfielder who we can move send to Strasbourg next summer We can only hope that after we've weathered this PSR storm, we are able to invest properly in the summer. Obviously making CL football would make a big different in that regard.
Agree a 100 percent,we should be soo thankful that these sporting directors have been able to get jems , through the transfer window,i genuinely don't understand how there are any real Chelsea fans that can't see that we have to adapt our transfer model from prior years
@@stefanpetrusev2327 Yeah, I think there were some horrible (and to some degree unfortunate) mistakes in previous seasons that put us in this really difficult financial situation. And the last 2 windows have been us trying get to be a better place, trying to dig ourselves out of the huge hole we landed ourselves in following the 2/3 seasons of madness. Starting from pre-Clearlake: - cashing in CBs (Tomori, Guehi, Zouma) and then letting 2 start CBs leave on free (Rudiger, Christensen) - investing huge money fee and wages on Lukaku - not getting a DM (choosing a Saul loan over Tchouaméni) From Clearlake: (first season) - letting Tuchel pick his signings only then to fire him months later (compensation costs) - Sterling on £325k/week, Aubameyang and Koulibaly high salaries, £75m and a high salary on injury-riddled Fofana - £21m for Potter and staff, then have to pay to sack them - The mad January window gambling that we could qualify for CL by spending big: expensive Felix (loan), Mudryk and overpaid for Enzo Fernandez (he's doing well now but we definitely overpaid) (second season) - Hiring then having to sack Poch - Overpaying for Caicedo (great player for us, but could have saved a lot if we didn't let it end up as bidding war with Liverpool) - Big investment on Lavia with big injury issues - £39m on Diassi (because of Fofana being injured)
😂😅 this club makes no sense. We have no back up left back, no substitute for number 10 , no cm substitute, wingers and quality striker and we are expecting top 4...well good luck
Also, I think you’re being way too harsh on Nkunku. He was influential in trying to slow the game down and keep possession, but as you said, he’s lacking match sharpness. Give him time.
Winter signings often overpay so not overspending, even if for positions that are needed, might be the responsible thing to do, I’m wondering could these offloadings be for PSR and/or FFP compliance
Jackson hasn't proved he's a striker. He's an improvement on Lukau for mobility, but he's still a winger in the striker role. I fear we will suffer for this. Nkunku would be better up front.
We had a chance to bring in a 19-year-old striker with Premier League experience (Ferguson) on loan to give Jackson better back up than Guiu, but instead we opted to recall a striker that only scored 4 goals for Burnley. This transfer team is something else, and I mean that in the worst way possible.
Squad movements: 17 transfers, 4 sales, 4 recalls, 9 loans-out. Key gaps remain in GK and CF, with reduced cover in crucial roles. Squad weakened while rivals strengthened. Poor planning for upcoming no summer break/club world cup and into next season. Opportunities missed.
Dont agree on this one George. You didnt mention chalobah at all, we brought him back. Disasi out. Good in my books. Only thing i wouldve done differently is keep veiga as backup and keep felix as i think hes better than nkunku (atleast in this chelsea team) would give this window a 7/10 considering its Jan That new CM is probably better than drewsbury hall and will swap with santos come summer.
To me, i am very happy with the window, . i am very glad Nkunku stayed, we still have Dwebury Hall if needed, and from now on we will play strong team and in Conference and in FA Cup and in EPL and not feeling guilty for some players. We still have Achampong. James and Gusto can cover left back if needed
Noni has to have a long hard look at himself n shape up a bit he sulks to much and gets lazy if he wants to be the top player he thinks he is he’s gotta show it week in week out not just once every 6-7 games, Neto came on and wanted to prove a point had the energy and drive that’s what we need from Noni
The Amougo gives us some PSR value when we sell/loan him to Strasbourg while making sure we don't hamstring Strasbourg without a decent replacement for Santos. I think it is a good signing. I wish we recalled Ugochukwu for some depth and to raise his price to sell once Santos comes back.
I used to get excited for transfer windows because if we signed someone, for the most part I knew anyone coming in was gonna be pretty decent. I thought the same when we bought all those players spending the 1 billion. I thought Mudryk was going to be the next Hazard with the way they were hyping him up and rubbing it in Arsenal’s face that they missed out. Now I’m just embarrassed of what our club has become
George - I’m genuinely asking this question out of curiosity. Isn’t it a bad idea to be making big moves in the January window because of limited supply and high demand? ie Higher prices for worse players?
Strange way of thinking Benson regarding Felix. Maybe Felix was purchased for 3 reasons. 1. Stop Aston Villa or rivals from getting him because he is that good. 2. Good investment with a huge ceiling. 3. Because they thought he would be able to push Palmer more than he did. How I see it. He was an investment that could go 2 ways. 1. Should he perform at an elite level and Palmer was a one season wonder then we have a maverick player ready to go. 2. Should he not take Palmers position, then he was an investment that they believed they couldn’t loose money on. Answer, Palmer wasn’t a one season wonder and so decision needed to be made. Palmer is the number 1 10 the club wants to move forward with. Making it impossible to keep Felix happy especially for team harmony. They need Felix to have exposure in a system where he will be used and will shine. AC Milan offered the perfect situation for Chelsea, Milan and Felix. Chelsea will use this to market him to the world, the best way that they could without upsetting Palmer and harmony of the squad. Personally I’d much rather have a finisher in Nkunku in my team compared to an inconsistent maverick. Nkunku defended wide left but attacked on the same half space that Enzo did. Context people continuously misinform listeners with. Nkunku helped massively with his calmness to control the game, to defend with the ball.
Not bringing Ugochukwu and Santos back even though it does not make sense at first, Santos was not brought back because the owners also care about Strasbourg seen as they own that club as well and they want it to do well. Ugochukwu on the other hand just started playing regularly and bringing him back would not be in his interest because he will play less. Felix in my opinion was a buy just to give Atletico the funds to buy Gallagher of us and I personally never liked him at our club. But yes the fact that we did not buy a striker is a big issue. All in all it was not a perfect transfer window, but I would say it was a 5-6/10.
We received 5+ mil for each of 2 of our fringe players that get both get very little game time, and signed a promising player for I believe 10-12 mil, so essentially the money for those two loans is reinvested directly into a developing player. Realistically Amougou is just there for cover until Lavia gets back and will pretty much be a like for like swap for Santos next year, KDH will be ahead of him for the time being. We will definitely send him away to Stras next year, Additionally we didnt waste any money on rushing into plugging temporary holes and making more mistakes like previous mid season windows, meaning we can take our time and set ourselves up for proper investment post season. Bringing Trev back is a smart move also, giving us enough cover in defence now, just hope he stays at the end of the season. We get probably at least 500-600K a week off the wage book between Carns, Disasi, Chilly and Felix. I think this is actually quite a smartly played transfer window, maybe it seems underwhelming compared to recent windows since the takeover, but i think putting these players in the shop window for potential future exits, wages off the book, and a cheap prospect paid for almost entirely by loan fees (who's future resell value will only go up) is smart business and leave us in a good place for the end of the season. Providing we still make UCL, I think we will look back at this window at the start of next season and think this was smartly played honestly. Only thing we really missed out on I believe is cover for Jackson (where we do still have Guiu who has consistently looked good and hopefully we see more of now), everywhere else I'd say we are decently covered, should still make top 4, get UCL and be in a position for some big moves come summer. Love the Channel mate, just trying to look at it in a positive way!
It’s safe to say we’re now a business venture, our board only care about the profit hence why they keep getting young players. The guy was signed to be eventually loaned to Strasbourg when Santos joins, so don’t read much into it.
I’m convinced we haven’t really strengthened but I’m not sure we have weakened. I get the suggestion that we’re weakened by virtue of the squad depth but none of the players shipped out were being played and clearly never would.
Hi George I m from India and the distance between india and London is 7481 km. I am sitting 7481 km away from London know that we need a proper striker, a reliable goalkeeper, and a midfielder but the owners and directors of the CFC bloody hell are not aware of that problem.. that really..irritate me😡😡
Cole palmer has created the most chances in europe since start of december, 32 and has no assists to show for it, how this board hasnt signed a striker is beyond me, we also have no cucurella or caicedo replacement if either get injured, no idea what this board is doin.
If Nkunku really does want to leave, you would have thought he would up his game, so other teams would think yeah there's a good player we will make a bid in the summer, but he is not helping himself
We can cross if needed but theres nobody to finish basically ever. Even in prime reece and chillwell years there were constant crosses in the box but nobody to hit it in the net.
I understand the sentiments. But lets get real, the directors of football have been immense in the signings and being able to maneuver PSR. This time last year there was a lot of noise about Chelsea getting sanctioned and how the squad was too large. They have weathered that storm by navigating the transfer market smartly. There is no point buying players who are on our B list for huge amounts. In the summer, we will fill the number 9 position. We don't need another GK. There is Jorgensen and the option to recall Petrovic. Santos will be back into the midfield and hopefully a fit Lavia. We need a LB (Backup), and a serial goal scorer. The goal this season is to qualify for the UCL, and we are on track to achieve that. We have won 12 and drawn 7 games out of 24. Next season, a serial goal scorer will change these draws to wins. Right now, the focus should be UCL!!
Nkunku should never play striker again. Put him in the 10 because he’s inflexible. Palmer is flexible. Palmer on the left, Nkunku behind Guiu and Neto/Noni on the right. Jackson could be super sub after 70 mins.
I don’t care that Maresca didn’t want us to buy Felix, we know the player he is. He still could’ve solved a big problem of ours and helped us win, and he seemed to genuinely want to be here and was excited to come back. Maresca needs to take heat on this one for being stubborn. I wish Felix the best and hope he cooks at Milan for his own sake, even though it’ll be incredibly frustrating when we just use it as a reason to put a higher price tag on him for selling him this summer
love the videos man, but nkunku is an insanely good player and the lack of confidence isn’t helping. i think there is a solution for him on the left. i truly think it’s maresca not having him in that’s shot him in the foot. over time, w confidence and backing, nkunku>felix.
Don’t be surprised if these 🤡’s sell Estevao and Santos for a gigantic fee to Real Madrid or some team like that instead of ever using them in the squad…. This is Chelsea FC now…… we are a “feeder” squad where we buy young and sell high…. And keep mid players to stay top 7 with some euro games….. we are no longer the trophy seeking machine we used to be……
Yeah, but i guess wed have to sell someone for actual profit before spending for guys that will cost enourmous money. Imagine if tottenhama was willing to pay 70 for guehi and palace rejected. Just think what duran, isak, watkins etc actually would had costed us to get now in january when chelsea is direct rival for many teams, they aint gonna do any favors for us. Duran would had been 85-90mil for us same for watkins and isak 150m tell me you want to pay that for them?
Not buying "proven" players in January is probably very smart,very rarely do January transfers work out,and they're almost always far more expensive than they should,i like our club, we're smart safe and that's what's needed for these psr rules, still think the squad is top 4-5 this season
Our play has long been tuned to best accommodate our marksman, Jackson and it's so far not a success. May be it's time we re-tune it again to the best finisher at our disposal which is Nkunku
The owners had no intention of strengthening key positions to try and fight for top 4 or 5 and clearly our chances now are next to zero in fact we will do well to qualify for European competition next year at all. We are no good thing to win this season's Conference League either with the likes of Fiorentina (currently 6th in Serie A) and Real Betis (currently10th in LaLiga) involved and our Round of 16 opponent will be the winners of Gent v Real Betis whilst Fiorentina will be playing the winners of Panathinaikos or Viking which should be a challenge for them too. As much as we hate it our club is a profit mechanism for the owners beyond success on the pitch. Any of that to them is a bonus. In their eyes success is the profit margin on sales. Don't be surprised if they don't cash in on Palmer sooner rather than later and they convert their 40 million quid investment into a 150 to 200 million quid result. Those are their results NOT Chelsea 2 West Ham 1 which, to them, is secondary. This transfer window exposed their intent big time and the true life long Chelsea supporter cannot accept what it is. This is not just a Chelsea issue either with so many other clubs heading in the same direction down the track. Anyway George, enjoy your work - cheers 🍻
The stats say that Nico is quicker, but Marc is stronger and will put his body into tackles, headers where Jackson appears to be afraid to do so. Where was the last time we saw Jackson,a so called no 9, win an aerial challenge. I suggest never. When the keeper launches it high he never makes the challenge or if he does he loses it because he’s not really committed. He’d be better off playing on the left, Neto on the right and Marc in the middle.
George stop going in on the player like this he's only young he plays in a completely different position from Santos Santos is a boxer box player This kid is more like a DM and he's only a kid let's just see how he progresses I know your height up with emotion but just take a minute and chill and look at the bigger picture CFC for life JK West London man Good debate
I think ppl panicking a lil too much. most buys this January would of been overpay. we have alot of pieces coming in summer. if we get top four do we look back at window as good we didn't waste money
If he doesn’t make top 6, he’s gotta go // stickin with Sanchez, Jackson and Madueke for half the season if why the blues aren’t in 2nd place rn // also barely using the bench depth in the Prem was wild // telling the press that they aren’t in title race rather than saying taking a game at a time // how he managed mins for Felix, Nkuku, Lavia and James was preposterous // late subs // having Cucu being the second striker haha // the list goes on
Hey George , Thank you for one more great video, but this time I am a bit split with your opinion, transfer window I agree but the last game totally disagree, I was in the stadium, I am going every game, and really nothing to blame the players only to blame Maresca, the insisting on his stupid tactics of cucorella and Fernandez under Jackson and sticking are wingers on the lines to cover on the defenders that become to be almost strikers , and losing Reece to become 3 center back when when half the ball, and last that drops palmer lower. After 8.5 games he gave up on tactic and let all players play in there position without crazy ideas, and we crashed them in less then 30 minutes. It was not the subs at all it was the change of tactics. Please watch again the game and see what I am talking here about. And I will really appreciate if you can check it and do a new video that talk about that and explain are main problem this season, “the inverted wing back”.
Nkunku is way better than Felix will ever be . I am glad that star boy left , wherever he played he never adapted, so i blame him not the club. For me to be honest i think we did a good job in the transfer window. We are going to see the players we need getting signed in the summer transfer window.
Disagree. Felix is fantastic, and the manager's job is to find a place to start him. What they have in common is that neither has truly been given a chance. Playing Nkunku as a left winger is a joke.
@@MaterLacrymarum Felix is fantastic but he never lived up to the expectations the stats speak for himself , when atletico payed a staggering amount for him they expected him to grow at a high level but he never did that's why they tried to ge rid of him for almost 3 X lower the price. On the other hand Nkunku performed at highest level scoring goal for fun in Bundesliga , his bad luck was that injury that kept him off the pitch for too long but as soon as he will find his form he will deliver again i tell you that. The difference between these two players is enourmous when it comes to mentality and professionalism with Felix lacking at both.
@ Overall and statistically he provided 13 goals and 4 assist in all competition until now. If he was so poor i'm sure maresca would have let him leave instead of Felix but Maresca didn't even want to work with Felix in the first place and that says a lot about him. Felix was brought only for business so we can fund Atletico for Gallagher so we can earn max profit for academy player. If there is any player useless for this team that's definitely Felix. FACTS !
Benson Benson, you’re gonna get clipped after speaking on Mathis Amougou🤦🏽♂️, when he starts playing good may your praise be as loud as your disrespect towards the youngster
Only a blind person can't see where we are having a problem in our team but those whom we regard as managers of the team can't see this is very pathetic
If we sold all those players and didnt loan them , i wouldn't have minding too much. but loaning is pointless really. we have also left ourselves light in a few area's grrrrr. There was even more reasons this window to get a striker as out only main option is totally out of form. come on owners sort the TEAM , as well as profits

Do not downplay the high pressing role of Marc Guiu man, he forced their defenders to make decisions hastily.

Thanks for that captain obvious...
ownership has ruined our club. I cannot figure out how anything they do makes any sense
Ive supported this club since 1969 and i dont reconize it no more for a while now, its very sad to me
Almost snap, I’ve been supporter since 67. Seen the good the bad and the ugly. Also seen the great which now seems to have moved over the horizon at a pace☹️
Supported since 71. Yes, Club is unrecognisable. Now a world top 10 club, great quality players throughout, great stadium, expectation of success every season.
Unrecognisable from the shit of the 70s and 80s.
... still the same miserable, whining fan base as we put up with in the Shed in the dark days though.
@wilsonfamily1762 all full of player's with no leadership or no ambitions ,my arse, even the owner's have no idea of who we are, all of that came from Abramovich and they dont what to do with it
@@KG-vn8ou '67 here too and its the first time I can feel that off field issues totally have taken over from what we focus on and support. Its like going through a 'football' dose of Covid all over again. A totally weird 2 or 3 years and 100% NOT Chelsea Football Club.
@ I agree. From my perspective the fact these owners have got themselves in such a bind with crap buying decisions they prefer to sell the academy players to help get themselves out of the hole they dug themselves. All we have now is a bunch of very expensive mercenaries. It’s a shame.
Just to make it clear. Chelsea NEVER announced the signing of Amougou. The only thing that was announced is the here we go from Fabrizio. He is still officially a St. Etienne player.
Check the Chelsea website they have announced it mate

Is this a team that can compete wit Arsenal, City and Liverpool? I believe year two we vill. And I know the problem with Greenwood. Let me know a better right winger that can produce goal/assists. That can suits us bettar.
One reason I feel we didn’t sign Garnacho is because Modryks sample B came out negative.
Nah. Sadly it's very rare for that to happen. Modryk is cooked, I'm afraid.
Mudryk* ffs..you don't even know his surname 🫣
George this could work well 4 Chelsea now concentrate on this squad that he has now as the squad before was too big to manage Chelsea have been spoilt over the years and we expect signings every transfer window not sustainable so I see the direction but we still do need a few experience players in there hopefully the older boys can step up and the younger boys can look up to them and work with it let's see how we do against Brighton in the cup and the next few games hopefully sticks with jurgenson in goal. I would love to buy the juventus left winger what a player . CFC for life JK West London man
Nkunku's injury has really messed him up. He is not just the same guy again. Not the person we saw at bundesliga.
He keep passing the ball backwards instead of going forward.
I think its cos hes gay and black
nah man it’s because he don’t get to play as a 10
Either he has no confidence at all, or zero interest in playing for Chelsea. Maybe both?
@@madziaciapko or he just isnt as good as you idiots make him to be. His same level player as werner. Semi decent speed but nothing else, no dribble no finish no anything
@@johannespitkamaki1369stfu man. Calling people idiots cause they have an opinion is a bitch move
Mathis was bought to send to Strasbourg in the summer when Santos joins us. It’s annoying but let’s not act like Mathis is in the cfc lineup this year unless serious injury issues. Not necessarily a comment towards you George. Just agreeing w you lol.
Problem is that what happens if Caicedo and/or Enzo get injured? KDH is the replacement who also gets injured quite a bit. If one of them and KDH get injured what do we do? That's the issue
We were never going to get santos back in January! We have an affiliation with Strasbourg and he’s been there best player! The owners will want to support Strasbourg as well and taking him away to sit in our bench won’t be perceived well.
Leaving him there was the right call, and no doubt both players will swap current clubs by July. Lesley will be sold or loaned again
As fans we all want to see signings that improve the team. However, with the club spending big and often badly in previous windows, and then missing out on CL revenue for 2 years (no front of shirt sponsor this year), I think PSR is a real issue for us.
The clubs never going come out and admit:
1) we are in real difficult meeting PSR
2) for next season or two we are only aiming to be competing for top 4 or 6-ish, rather than really trying to win anything major. Actually Enzo did say in an interview that the "schedule" was to push for top 4 next season.
However, looking at how we've operated over the last 2 windows tells me that is probably the case.
The last 2 window can mainly described as "PSR dancing":
Over the summer
- got Felix to allow us to sell Gallagher (after failing to do a swap with Villa for Duran & Gallagher)
- got Kellyman to allow us to sell Maatsen
- KDH's yearly cost offset by selling Golding to Leicester
- Tosin on free to use or likely sell on future
- a swath of youngsters who we think can increase in value (Veiga, Jorgensen, Wiley, Penders)
- cashing in on Lukaku, Angelo, pure-profit Hall
- desperately trying and sell Broja & Chalobah (for pure profit)
- forcing out Chilwell and Sterling (because of high wages)
- try and get Osimhen for 2 packets of foodstamps
There were only really 2 signing to improve the team:
- Neto (who I'm guess we got decent payment terms on)
- Sancho (who was an opportunistic signing, loan and then a low fee compare to his previous hype)
Jan window
- Loaning out under utilised players for loan fees, wage savings and improving future sale value (Veiga, Disassi, Felix, Carney)
- Selling Casadei
- Only buying a young midfielder who we can move send to Strasbourg next summer
We can only hope that after we've weathered this PSR storm, we are able to invest properly in the summer. Obviously making CL football would make a big different in that regard.
Agree a 100 percent,we should be soo thankful that these sporting directors have been able to get jems , through the transfer window,i genuinely don't understand how there are any real Chelsea fans that can't see that we have to adapt our transfer model from prior years
@@stefanpetrusev2327 Yeah, I think there were some horrible (and to some degree unfortunate) mistakes in previous seasons that put us in this really difficult financial situation. And the last 2 windows have been us trying get to be a better place, trying to dig ourselves out of the huge hole we landed ourselves in following the 2/3 seasons of madness.
Starting from pre-Clearlake:
- cashing in CBs (Tomori, Guehi, Zouma) and then letting 2 start CBs leave on free (Rudiger, Christensen)
- investing huge money fee and wages on Lukaku
- not getting a DM (choosing a Saul loan over Tchouaméni)
From Clearlake:
(first season)
- letting Tuchel pick his signings only then to fire him months later (compensation costs)
- Sterling on £325k/week, Aubameyang and Koulibaly high salaries, £75m and a high salary on injury-riddled Fofana
- £21m for Potter and staff, then have to pay to sack them
- The mad January window gambling that we could qualify for CL by spending big: expensive Felix (loan), Mudryk and overpaid for Enzo Fernandez (he's doing well now but we definitely overpaid)
(second season)
- Hiring then having to sack Poch
- Overpaying for Caicedo (great player for us, but could have saved a lot if we didn't let it end up as bidding war with Liverpool)
- Big investment on Lavia with big injury issues
- £39m on Diassi (because of Fofana being injured)
😂😅 this club makes no sense. We have no back up left back, no substitute for number 10 , no cm substitute, wingers and quality striker and we are expecting top 4...well good luck
Not addressing a new Goalkeeper & Striker is ridiculous anyone can see we need them for top 4 terrible window! 👎
Also, I think you’re being way too harsh on Nkunku. He was influential in trying to slow the game down and keep possession, but as you said, he’s lacking match sharpness. Give him time.
Winter signings often overpay so not overspending, even if for positions that are needed, might be the responsible thing to do, I’m wondering could these offloadings be for PSR and/or FFP compliance
Removing Santos now would risk mid table Strassbourg falling into a relegation zone.
Jackson hasn't proved he's a striker. He's an improvement on Lukau for mobility, but he's still a winger in the striker role. I fear we will suffer for this. Nkunku would be better up front.
We had a chance to bring in a 19-year-old striker with Premier League experience (Ferguson) on loan to give Jackson better back up than Guiu, but instead we opted to recall a striker that only scored 4 goals for Burnley. This transfer team is something else, and I mean that in the worst way possible.
Datro Fofana is hurt mate. We recalled him to free a loan spot not play him
Ferguson barely got minutes when he was fit. Stop gassing him.
I hope Maresca takes a couple of courage pills from Amorim and talk to the owners about what the team really needs.
Squad movements: 17 transfers, 4 sales, 4 recalls, 9 loans-out. Key gaps remain in GK and CF, with reduced cover in crucial roles. Squad weakened while rivals strengthened. Poor planning for upcoming no summer break/club world cup and into next season. Opportunities missed.
No top four equals no top goalkeeper and no top striker in the summer and another season in the crap conference league.
There is no mention of the French midfielder joining Chelsea on either the website or in the App. All other transactions are updated.
Bro he's not even listed on the chelsea website as a signing that's how good this midfielder we got poor kid 😂
They’re always slow on announcements
They posted all ins and outs this morning and he's not on there lol
Dont agree on this one George. You didnt mention chalobah at all, we brought him back. Disasi out. Good in my books. Only thing i wouldve done differently is keep veiga as backup and keep felix as i think hes better than nkunku (atleast in this chelsea team) would give this window a 7/10 considering its Jan
That new CM is probably better than drewsbury hall and will swap with santos come summer.
We need to move James into the middle with Moi and move Palmer out wide and Enzo in the 10. They can switch whenever.
To me, i am very happy with the window, . i am very glad Nkunku stayed, we still have Dwebury Hall if needed, and from now on we will play strong team and in Conference and in FA Cup and in EPL and not feeling guilty for some players. We still have Achampong. James and Gusto can cover left back if needed
Noni has to have a long hard look at himself n shape up a bit he sulks to much and gets lazy if he wants to be the top player he thinks he is he’s gotta show it week in week out not just once every 6-7 games, Neto came on and wanted to prove a point had the energy and drive that’s what we need from Noni
The Amougo gives us some PSR value when we sell/loan him to Strasbourg while making sure we don't hamstring Strasbourg without a decent replacement for Santos. I think it is a good signing. I wish we recalled Ugochukwu for some depth and to raise his price to sell once Santos comes back.
I used to get excited for transfer windows because if we signed someone, for the most part I knew anyone coming in was gonna be pretty decent. I thought the same when we bought all those players spending the 1 billion. I thought Mudryk was going to be the next Hazard with the way they were hyping him up and rubbing it in Arsenal’s face that they missed out. Now I’m just embarrassed of what our club has become
George - I’m genuinely asking this question out of curiosity. Isn’t it a bad idea to be making big moves in the January window because of limited supply and high demand? ie Higher prices for worse players?
Strange way of thinking Benson regarding Felix. Maybe Felix was purchased for 3 reasons. 1. Stop Aston Villa or rivals from getting him because he is that good. 2. Good investment with a huge ceiling. 3. Because they thought he would be able to push Palmer more than he did.
How I see it. He was an investment that could go 2 ways. 1. Should he perform at an elite level and Palmer was a one season wonder then we have a maverick player ready to go. 2. Should he not take Palmers position, then he was an investment that they believed they couldn’t loose money on.
Answer, Palmer wasn’t a one season wonder and so decision needed to be made. Palmer is the number 1 10 the club wants to move forward with. Making it impossible to keep Felix happy especially for team harmony. They need Felix to have exposure in a system where he will be used and will shine. AC Milan offered the perfect situation for Chelsea, Milan and Felix. Chelsea will use this to market him to the world, the best way that they could without upsetting Palmer and harmony of the squad.
Personally I’d much rather have a finisher in Nkunku in my team compared to an inconsistent maverick. Nkunku defended wide left but attacked on the same half space that Enzo did. Context people continuously misinform listeners with. Nkunku helped massively with his calmness to control the game, to defend with the ball.
Not bringing Ugochukwu and Santos back even though it does not make sense at first, Santos was not brought back because the owners also care about Strasbourg seen as they own that club as well and they want it to do well. Ugochukwu on the other hand just started playing regularly and bringing him back would not be in his interest because he will play less. Felix in my opinion was a buy just to give Atletico the funds to buy Gallagher of us and I personally never liked him at our club. But yes the fact that we did not buy a striker is a big issue.
All in all it was not a perfect transfer window, but I would say it was a 5-6/10.
We received 5+ mil for each of 2 of our fringe players that get both get very little game time, and signed a promising player for I believe 10-12 mil, so essentially the money for those two loans is reinvested directly into a developing player. Realistically Amougou is just there for cover until Lavia gets back and will pretty much be a like for like swap for Santos next year, KDH will be ahead of him for the time being. We will definitely send him away to Stras next year, Additionally we didnt waste any money on rushing into plugging temporary holes and making more mistakes like previous mid season windows, meaning we can take our time and set ourselves up for proper investment post season. Bringing Trev back is a smart move also, giving us enough cover in defence now, just hope he stays at the end of the season. We get probably at least 500-600K a week off the wage book between Carns, Disasi, Chilly and Felix. I think this is actually quite a smartly played transfer window, maybe it seems underwhelming compared to recent windows since the takeover, but i think putting these players in the shop window for potential future exits, wages off the book, and a cheap prospect paid for almost entirely by loan fees (who's future resell value will only go up) is smart business and leave us in a good place for the end of the season. Providing we still make UCL, I think we will look back at this window at the start of next season and think this was smartly played honestly. Only thing we really missed out on I believe is cover for Jackson (where we do still have Guiu who has consistently looked good and hopefully we see more of now), everywhere else I'd say we are decently covered, should still make top 4, get UCL and be in a position for some big moves come summer. Love the Channel mate, just trying to look at it in a positive way!
It’s safe to say we’re now a business venture, our board only care about the profit hence why they keep getting young players. The guy was signed to be eventually loaned to Strasbourg when Santos joins, so don’t read much into it.
I’m convinced we haven’t really strengthened but I’m not sure we have weakened. I get the suggestion that we’re weakened by virtue of the squad depth but none of the players shipped out were being played and clearly never would.
Hi George I m from India and the distance between india and London is 7481 km. I am sitting 7481 km away from London know that we need a proper striker, a reliable goalkeeper, and a midfielder but the owners and directors of the CFC bloody hell are not aware of that problem.. that really..irritate me😡😡
Cole palmer has created the most chances in europe since start of december, 32 and has no assists to show for it, how this board hasnt signed a striker is beyond me, we also have no cucurella or caicedo replacement if either get injured, no idea what this board is doin.
If Nkunku really does want to leave, you would have thought he would up his game, so other teams would think yeah there's a good player we will make a bid in the summer, but he is not helping himself
Nkunku played as a second striker, he drifted from the flank to the box and we had more bodies to cross the ball to.
We can cross if needed but theres nobody to finish basically ever. Even in prime reece and chillwell years there were constant crosses in the box but nobody to hit it in the net.
I understand the sentiments. But lets get real, the directors of football have been immense in the signings and being able to maneuver PSR. This time last year there was a lot of noise about Chelsea getting sanctioned and how the squad was too large. They have weathered that storm by navigating the transfer market smartly. There is no point buying players who are on our B list for huge amounts. In the summer, we will fill the number 9 position. We don't need another GK. There is Jorgensen and the option to recall Petrovic. Santos will be back into the midfield and hopefully a fit Lavia. We need a LB (Backup), and a serial goal scorer. The goal this season is to qualify for the UCL, and we are on track to achieve that. We have won 12 and drawn 7 games out of 24. Next season, a serial goal scorer will change these draws to wins. Right now, the focus should be UCL!!
Nkunku should never play striker again. Put him in the 10 because he’s inflexible. Palmer is flexible. Palmer on the left, Nkunku behind Guiu and Neto/Noni on the right. Jackson could be super sub after 70 mins.
The disrespect to CPFC is wild considering they’ve made all our players better that have gone there! Hence all have ended up in the England squad 😂
To be fair when you play against teams parking the bus do not expect to see your striker (1/5). Nico didn't even have chances to waste.
I don’t care that Maresca didn’t want us to buy Felix, we know the player he is. He still could’ve solved a big problem of ours and helped us win, and he seemed to genuinely want to be here and was excited to come back. Maresca needs to take heat on this one for being stubborn. I wish Felix the best and hope he cooks at Milan for his own sake, even though it’ll be incredibly frustrating when we just use it as a reason to put a higher price tag on him for selling him this summer
Maresca deserves no praise. What was he doing in the past few games re substitutions? He has single-handedly killed our season.
love the videos man, but nkunku is an insanely good player and the lack of confidence isn’t helping. i think there is a solution for him on the left. i truly think it’s maresca not having him in that’s shot him in the foot. over time, w confidence and backing, nkunku>felix.
i still cant understand why we didn't recall a midfielder , feel like he's going to be sold or loaned out straight away in the summer
Don’t be surprised if these 🤡’s sell Estevao and Santos for a gigantic fee to Real Madrid or some team like that instead of ever using them in the squad…. This is Chelsea FC now…… we are a “feeder” squad where we buy young and sell high…. And keep mid players to stay top 7 with some euro games….. we are no longer the trophy seeking machine we used to be……
They will sell them but not for astronomical fees. It will be for mediocre or low fees as that is what we do
You are so right smh we didn’t want sign anyone at all. We need a striker! And not even 1 was mentioned
Yeah, but i guess wed have to sell someone for actual profit before spending for guys that will cost enourmous money. Imagine if tottenhama was willing to pay 70 for guehi and palace rejected. Just think what duran, isak, watkins etc actually would had costed us to get now in january when chelsea is direct rival for many teams, they aint gonna do any favors for us. Duran would had been 85-90mil for us same for watkins and isak 150m tell me you want to pay that for them?
George trying to pronounce Tosin's surname 🤣
Not buying "proven" players in January is probably very smart,very rarely do January transfers work out,and they're almost always far more expensive than they should,i like our club, we're smart safe and that's what's needed for these psr rules, still think the squad is top 4-5 this season
The right move was to recall Santos and send Amougou to Strasbourg now…
Our play has long been tuned to best accommodate our marksman, Jackson and it's so far not a success. May be it's time we re-tune it again to the best finisher at our disposal which is Nkunku
Perhaps Amougu has been brought in so that we can loan him to Strasbourg in Santos place next season
Lets be honnest it was a poor performance v west ham , yes we came back and won , but so many weaknesses for me
Neto had gusto helping, unlike Noni James is not giving option
Fofana can "maybe" gets some time too, he was recalled
An underwhelming transfer season is expected from a typical mid table team. May we not see the likes of disasi again. Chiwell served well, farewell.
We can’t sell anyone due to the stupid prices we paid, so all are sold at a loss . Great Business
so un excited by what the owners have done and wanna see a big big window in the summer , full stop
As if the guy got a knock and then had a bad game he may not be a good striker but i wont doubt his work rate or link up play
Be fair what did mark Guiu do? He got a free net to score but fell on the ball and injured his groin.
The owners had no intention of strengthening key positions to try and fight for top 4 or 5 and clearly our chances now are next to zero in fact we will do well to qualify for European competition next year at all. We are no good thing to win this season's Conference League either with the likes of Fiorentina (currently 6th in Serie A) and Real Betis (currently10th in LaLiga) involved and our Round of 16 opponent will be the winners of Gent v Real Betis whilst Fiorentina will be playing the winners of Panathinaikos or Viking which should be a challenge for them too. As much as we hate it our club is a profit mechanism for the owners beyond success on the pitch. Any of that to them is a bonus. In their eyes success is the profit margin on sales. Don't be surprised if they don't cash in on Palmer sooner rather than later and they convert their 40 million quid investment into a 150 to 200 million quid result. Those are their results NOT Chelsea 2 West Ham 1 which, to them, is secondary. This transfer window exposed their intent big time and the true life long Chelsea supporter cannot accept what it is. This is not just a Chelsea issue either with so many other clubs heading in the same direction down the track. Anyway George, enjoy your work - cheers 🍻
Chelsea striker presence is also a threat for any opponent's defence devoid of performance
The stats say that Nico is quicker, but Marc is stronger and will put his body into tackles, headers where Jackson appears to be afraid
to do so. Where was the last time we saw Jackson,a so called no 9, win an aerial challenge. I suggest never. When the keeper launches it high he never makes the challenge or if he does he loses it because he’s not really committed. He’d be better off playing on the left, Neto on the right and Marc in the middle.
George stop going in on the player like this he's only young he plays in a completely different position from Santos Santos is a boxer box player This kid is more like a DM and he's only a kid let's just see how he progresses I know your height up with emotion but just take a minute and chill and look at the bigger picture CFC for life JK West London man Good debate
I think ppl panicking a lil too much. most buys this January would of been overpay. we have alot of pieces coming in summer. if we get top four do we look back at window as good we didn't waste money
Fab said Amougou is gonna stay till summer then go to Strasbourg when Andrey comes back
Is no one going to talk about Detro Fofana who have been recalled
If Chelsea makes the top 5 this season, it's a serious credit to Maresca. If not, he's not to be blamed.
If he doesn’t make top 6, he’s gotta go // stickin with Sanchez, Jackson and Madueke for half the season if why the blues aren’t in 2nd place rn // also barely using the bench depth in the Prem was wild // telling the press that they aren’t in title race rather than saying taking a game at a time // how he managed mins for Felix, Nkuku, Lavia and James was preposterous // late subs // having Cucu being the second striker haha // the list goes on
Well, it's either you are good in Chelsea or not...I watched is highlights, he has potential and idea...he just needs direction ✅
Kai! Nkunku helped manage the game from Chelsea. How come our bias can’t just see that?
I'll give 3/10 simply for the outgoings even if they are on loan, hopefully they perform and the team buys them lol
The owners are banking on winning conference league to get qualification to europa league. We haven’t got a squad to compete in the champions league!
it stupid how chelsea do transfers Veiga ,Felix,Chukvumeka,Disasi out but who come-NOTHING????
We are just CLEAR LAKE CIRCUS fc....the same module practiced by Brighton.
Next season all chelsea players will be stronger plus appropriate reinforcements
Clearly you have some agendas Benson. Nkunku played well mate, he didn’t do much statistically but it was a mature performance.
Hey George ,
Thank you for one more great video, but this time I am a bit split with your opinion, transfer window I agree but the last game totally disagree, I was in the stadium, I am going every game, and really nothing to blame the players only to blame Maresca, the insisting on his stupid tactics of cucorella and Fernandez under Jackson and sticking are wingers on the lines to cover on the defenders that become to be almost strikers , and losing Reece to become 3 center back when when half the ball, and last that drops palmer lower. After 8.5 games he gave up on tactic and let all players play in there position without crazy ideas, and we crashed them in less then 30 minutes.
It was not the subs at all it was the change of tactics.
Please watch again the game and see what I am talking here about.
And I will really appreciate if you can check it and do a new video that talk about that and explain are main problem this season, “the inverted wing back”.
Shoujd have given felix a chance as a false no 9
Nkunku is way better than Felix will ever be . I am glad that star boy left , wherever he played he never adapted, so i blame him not the club. For me to be honest i think we did a good job in the transfer window. We are going to see the players we need getting signed in the summer transfer window.
Disagree. Felix is fantastic, and the manager's job is to find a place to start him. What they have in common is that neither has truly been given a chance. Playing Nkunku as a left winger is a joke.
@@MaterLacrymarum Felix is fantastic but he never lived up to the expectations the stats speak for himself , when atletico payed a staggering amount for him they expected him to grow at a high level but he never did that's why they tried to ge rid of him for almost 3 X lower the price. On the other hand Nkunku performed at highest level scoring goal for fun in Bundesliga , his bad luck was that injury that kept him off the pitch for too long but as soon as he will find his form he will deliver again i tell you that. The difference between these two players is enourmous when it comes to mentality and professionalism with Felix lacking at both.
@@kdog3788 Overall, and statistically, Nkunku has been useless. He has not earned a place in the 1st team.
@ Overall and statistically he provided 13 goals and 4 assist in all competition until now. If he was so poor i'm sure maresca would have let him leave instead of Felix but Maresca didn't even want to work with Felix in the first place and that says a lot about him. Felix was brought only for business so we can fund Atletico for Gallagher so we can earn max profit for academy player. If there is any player useless for this team that's definitely Felix. FACTS !
I was waiting for the Nico Jackson Sold video 😭
Geez, Jackson is a good player. He needs a more experienced striker in the team to be his role model and bring competition with him.
@he has been trash
We call it hallucinations 😂😂😂
Let us return to Palmer as a false 9... Nkunku plays the 10... Pedro on the right and Sancho on the left.. Both Nkunku and Palmer can score....
Benson Benson, you’re gonna get clipped after speaking on Mathis Amougou🤦🏽♂️, when he starts playing good may your praise be as loud as your disrespect towards the youngster
With this window being bad, I just hope they have plans to spend big in the summer window...
Only a blind person can't see where we are having a problem in our team but those whom we regard as managers of the team can't see this is very pathetic
Will Enzo bring any of the U21’s into the Main Squad??
Gaui is sharper and faster than niko
Never true.
Chelsea got Fofana back. That's your new striker.
If we sold all those players and didnt loan them , i wouldn't have minding too much. but loaning is pointless really. we have also left ourselves light in a few area's grrrrr. There was even more reasons this window to get a striker as out only main option is totally out of form. come on owners sort the TEAM , as well as profits
Great business, Disasi loan with an option to give him away
If caicedo gets a knock or a serious injury we’re finished we have no midfield if he gets injured?
