The only place we should spend any money is on a left back
there is really no point in spending money anywhere else and upset the balance of the team.
In this case money / greed will corrupt,
I look at the side and don't see anywhere where we could improve on currently
Tammy is 2nd top goal scorer and bats is playing well when he comes in. Giroud will likely go so no point in signing a backup striker when we could use an u21 for back up.
wide and attacking players we are well stocked with players who you would have to spend 40m plus to get near
Mount
CHO
Pulisic
Willian
Pedro
pedro potentially moving on but then if you think that RLC and Barkley come back its again a bit pointless in this regard
Alot of hype around Sancho, Barkley Mount and RLC can also play in midfield so thats another good reason why we shouldn't sign any midfielders
we are well stocked at CB when Rudi comes in and have Guehi
Reece and azpi at right back
The ONLY weak area we have is alonso, hes cost us far to many points and goals this season, he needs replacing and get someone on to compete with the very good emerson.
Life is good, please dont spend
January - If we could spend

As I said in my article last week, why do we need to spend ,we have an abundance of riches, and we can afford to juggle around and even experiment a bit ,once our injury situation becomes clearer.
This season is a free ride for Frank and the boys whatever happens.So,Roman can keep his hand in his pocket for the time being !

As a neutral i think you still need a top centre forward and it's easy to argue that you don't with Abraham scoring.
Against the best defences imo he won't have enough in his game. A top centre forward would make Chelsea a much better side.

Completely agree. Wait till the end of the season, gather all the money together (Hazard's sale, CL revenue/hopefully two seasons worth) and go all out on one or two really big targets in the summer.
Atal & Sancho : 200mil+ rolling into next season. Sorted

I'd have thought the same at the start of the season but he's coming on SO well. His link up might come unstuck against the best defenses in the world but his movement's ace. And Frank's getting a tune out of Bats so we might be OK upfront tbh, at least until someone really impressive comes onto the market.

Yeah at most maybe a LB in January.
In the summer we could bring in 3 or 4 top players.
- Willian/Pedro replacement
- CAM depending on how Ruben does (doesn’t break down again) and I’d move on Barkley
- A top CB

The C/F who would be ideal for this team alongside Tammy would be Werner,his style of play ,his speed and his age,would be ideal,but I think Bayern have him sown up for next season.

Tammy is very similar to kane, maybe better all round game than kane had at this stage. Can't see why he can't go on to do as well as kane did. Tammy is quicker too.

Kane's never struck me as a predatory finisher personally, Abraham does (potentially). Just needs to work on keeping his composure when he's got longer than usual to think about the finish & he'll be golden, the movements are all there.

No lads if Abraham isn’t absolutely world class having just turned 22 then he never will be
