    Chelsea just given a two window transfer ban

    And fined over 1/2 a million for transfer breaches involving U18 players

    Re: Chelsea just given a two window transfer ban

    Will it actually be enforced? Or will they just appeal it?

    Could really **** them, especially if hazard forces a move to Madrid.

    Makes the Sarri position more interesting

    He needs players in for his system. I wouldn’t be surprised if they appeal which will delay it until after the summer, and spend a **** load in that window.

    If they get one more window everyone will know they're desperate and they will have to pay well over the odds. Will be a wild transfer window

    Or do the just ride it out with their youngsters.
    That hudson-odoi looked ok last night. Very wasteful but was prepared to have a go.
    The commentators were creaming themselves over him, but you expect that for a young English lad

    And I imagine Morrata won’t be staying at Athletico any more

    Also Hazard's leverage for a new contract just got a lot bigger and it was already massive. He could probably ask for a million a week

    Re: Chelsea just given a two window transfer ban

    Wiki suggests they have 42 players out on loan and then an under-23 squad to lean on. A precedent has been set for bigger clubs who breach this law to appeal and sign players before punishment sets in, and then sign but not be able to register them during, but clubs they should be fine with the number of players they have. Unless they're just collecting youth players and they don't believe in the majority of them?

    Giroud, Cahill, Luiz and two keepers are also out of contract in the summer so they can ask for the moon on a stick too.

    They should get rid of the lot and promote their youth of course.

    It could be the best thing that's happened to Chelsea in a long time, but they won't do that of course.

    Their current method of hiring and firing managers is pretty successful.

    Lampard would be in a better position if he takes over and the ban goes ahead, as he would be prepared to work with the youngsters and they have some good ones. It would also be an opportunity to clear out the disrupters who are poisoning the club from within.

    If they were going to have a clear out and promote youth they would be far better to stick with Sarri who could actually mould them into the team he wants, than Lampard who hasn't been very good at Derby

    Sarri has an aversion towards young people, and he's not the person you would want to be in charge of this particular task

    Is there any subject you don't have a terrible opinion on?

    Well, the youngest regular player in Sarri's side is 24. He considers 23 year-old Loftus-Cheek to be too inexperienced, and in need of improvement. So it's not really an opinion, it's a fact

    It's a Chelsea problem - not a Sarri problem. Please go ahead and tell us all of the names of the young players that Chelsea have developed in-house in the last 10 years.

    As somebody pointed out to you the other day; your opinion of Sarri would be distinctly different if Ampadu was playing.

    (Oh yeah, he's only 2 appearances behind his total for last season now).

    Lampard is managing Derby ffs - it's a completely different situation and in a league where younger players get more game time due to there being less pressure to succeed (it's not a coincidence that three of their young players are on loan from top 6 PL teams).

    Yet, with that in mind... Aside from Mount, Wilson and Tomori (the loan players) the only other regular for Derby under the age of 23 this season is Bogle - so Lampard is giving other team's youth a chance, but not Derby's.

    Lampard's signings this season include - Andy King (over 30), Martyn Waghorn (almost 30), Jozefzoon & Scott Malone (late 20s) and Ashley Cole (born 53bc).

    Huddlestone, Bryson and Nugent are regular starters and have a combined age of about 100. Carson is about 32/33 - so are Keogh and Bradley Johnson. Maybe Lampard isn't as "prepared to work with youngsters" as you say he would be - yet you think Sarri has a problem with youth...

    Read your post 3 times.... perhaps I’m last drunk from still last night, but I can’t out what you work mean?

    Perhaps Sarri I will resign now and sue for breach of contract because he was promised he could buy new players 😂🤣😁

    Perhaps the fact that Loftus-Cheek's only regular football at this level was half a season's worth of games on loan at Palace in his career before this season, may be enough of a fact that he's not ready to be a Chelsea regular...

    Even though he's been involved in half of Chelsea's Premier League games this season under Sarri

    About those players that other Chelsea managers have developed this decade...

    23 and not old enough to play football? Now I've heard it all

    Loftus-Cheek's role with Chelsea is as a sub, he's not one of the 14 or so core players who are used game after game.

    There's being old enough to play football, and there's being good enough to be first choice for Chelsea - who do you think he should be keeping out of the side?
