What’s happened to him? Really weird how he’s fallen off a cliff.

Not that weird he seems very mentally fragile. Happened at United, Conte restored him and now he’s gone back to type. Was actually thinking today if Kane leaves and Conte stays, it wouldn’t surprise me if he went for Lukaku. Probably get him for £50m, although even that feels to much now. I know the history with Chelsea but Conte factor might change it if suits both parties.

It seems very obvious that he and Tuchel don't get along or at the very least that he doesn't fit in with what Tuchel wants to do.
Clearly not a Tuchel signing.

Levy gets a lot of flak from football fans regarding supposed signings being made by him - which isn't even true. Yet Chelsea really do sign players from above the manager's head. Shevchenko and Ballack brought in above Jose's head, Havertz and Werner above Lampard's and now Lukaku above Tuchel.

It's why they will never have a coach stay longer than 3 years, it creates a scenario in which as soon as something goes wrong the coach is under scrutiny despite expensive players not fitting their strategy.

Tuchel needs a fluid front three, or at least a CF who can play on the shoulder. Lukaku is not that guy.

If Russia do become completely annexed I wonder what the impact on Abramovich would be. He’s now personally an Israeli citizen but I’d presume all his business interests are in Russia. Imagine if he called in his loan to Chelsea.

Even better would be the EU, UK etc... seizing all Russian owned assets. Taking Chelsea and having it run by MPs in Westminster for a while would be great.

Would be good if the Russians were to ask Chelsea for their £1.5b back that they've loaned Chelsea since they became their owners.

I have a feeling it’s just a matter of when Roman is forced out. Let’s hope he calls in the loan and sells up to some cowboys. How glorious it would be to see them in league 1 in 10 years time.
