All in all not much to be excited about, but Chelsea have been through so much change over the last three years, that a fairly subdued bit of trading may not be such a bad thing.

The hope is they either benefit from regular game time to be able to come back and help improve Chelsea or, they prove their worth to secure a permanent transfer somewhere and provide income which can be reinvested into other targets.

Few permanent departures but the 5 senior players leaving on loan has been seen by the club in a positive light. Veiga, Chukwuemeka, Disasi and Felix all have joined clubs playing in the Champions League.

Enquiries were made for players like Garnacho, but club would only act if the right deal for the right price could be done. If not, it was about making headway for moves to be made in summer and the club believe they have done this for some of their targets.

Chelsea's messaging has remained consistent - wanted a winger and a striker but were not going to break the bank to do it now, especially with few teams wanting to sell their best assets.

Squad is now more exposed to injuries, but removing bloat/unsettled personnel may improve morale.

Fulham needed a body in attack since Nelson got injured long term.

He broke Neymar's record, which is impressive even if he plays against 'worse' sides. Especially since in South America talented attackers at a young age are played at wings where there is more space, and away from the goal.

His attitude stinks

Both Sancho and Neto provide more than mudryk.

Not difficult though😬

As long as they are putting clubs interest above their ego, it's fine

£60 million down the drain,
Kai Havertz missed again.

What is Nkunku's best position? He is non existent as always

I just think of him as a Cobham fan and not a Chelsea fan.

I think it was good.
We should have scored more and Leicester didn't create anything beside that penalty.

Bob Sanchez...

Who are they going to play in midfield? Ederson? 😬

Currently Chelsea not planning a huge spending spree in the winter window. They have key CB targets for next summer (Tomas Araújo currently No. 1 pick) & may look to agree a deal in principle. Main thing will be outgoings with Chukwuemeka and Chilwell both wanting resolutions.
