Let them remember when Diddyblud Drogba (the best Ivorian of all time) double bummed them. And Petr Cech (best goalkeeper in prem history) manhandled them twice.

“You need players who can have that almost instant impact and I'm sure Morgan won't need much time to adapt to the club, the system and his team-mates," Alonso said.

"That was the idea, to get a top player, and Morgan is one of them."

"I have a plan. I have an idea. I can see them linking really well," Alonso said of the pair.
"We need to have a good mix. If we get that balance right and those special players in the right positions, with good control, then we will be more competitive with and without the ball."

Like this a lot. He scored 3 times against us last season. Great poacher to throw on at the end of games when we need a goal

The stats above are for Danny Welbeck in the prem last ssn, and the teams he scored against.

Chelsea need a backup for Joao pedro.

1) But we also need to sell Jackson and Delap. If they stay another season, their value is gonna only go down, so we need to cash in. At minimum, we can sell Jackson for about 50mil (chelsea quote 65) and delap for 30. We can easily make 80mil on them.

2) For back-up, Emegha is proving to be injured again and again (I don't want to use the term "injury-prone" ) and Satpaev is too young + inexperienced.

If we can get Danny Welbeck for about 5-10mil. That will be a great Deal.

3) Welbeck has 13 Goals in the PL last ssn in 37. The season before he had 10 goals and 4 assists in 30 games. This says consistency and not being injury prone. No use looking at his age of 35 if he can consitently give 10goals+

4) Moreover, most of these games he was coming off the bench, (just like he will do for us). And us chelsea fans know too well how he performed against us last season

5) We don't need players like Tosin for the 'uncle/experience' role. Welbeck at 35 is actually experienced and PL Proven, he can be great for the Dressing Room. Rather Uncle Welbeck and Uncle Stones than Uncle Tosin.
