For Chelsea, starting from the era of Abramovich, Chelsea started the era of money in the Premier League. Last season, Chelsea experienced the pain of changing owners. The Burleigh consortium finally succeeded in acquiring Chelsea. Compared with being stingy, Burleigh is much more arrogant. But for Burleigh, he has just started to get involved in football, and he is not yet fully familiar with the laws of football. At the beginning of the season, he fired the meritorious coach Tuchel and let go of many champion players whose contracts had expired. Burleigh, who did not respect the laws of football, finally suffered a bitter fruit during the season.
Graham Potter had never managed a big team before taking over Chelsea. Burleigh still poached Porter based on his success at Brighton, which led to Chelsea's performance falling instead of rising. China's ranking plummeted, plummeting from No. 3 during the Tuchel period to No. 10, and was opened up by the top four teams by 10 points. The entry and exit of a large number of players in the team has affected the stability of the team. Chelsea has fallen from the Champions League champion two seasons ago to the middle of the league, and may not even be able to keep the Champions League qualification.
After Chelsea took over in Burleigh, there was a shock at the club's top management. Many managements in the Abramovich era were fired, including the transfer director. Burleigh personally took care of all the transfer matters of the team. The Burleigh era has frantically invested 455 million euros in the introduction of 13 players. Among them, the bidder is the Ukrainian winger Mudrik who has just competed from Arsenal. Chelsea spent 100 million euros to introduce Mudrik from Shakhtar Donetsk. The transfer fee Burleigh spent on defenders was as high as 225.3 million euros, and central defender Fofana spent 80.4 million euros. After the transfer, Fofana did not play a few games and has been recuperating from his injuries.
Cucurella, who competed with Manchester City for the introduction, signed central defender Coulibaly from Naples, and introduced central defender Badiasil from Monaco. Chelsea almost changed the back line. Signed Chuk Umeka for 18 million euros and loaned Zakaria from Juventus.
cabsite believes that the operation of signing Burleigh on the front line is even more incomprehensible. At the beginning of the season, Chelsea combined the 100 million yuan on the front line with Lukaku and Werner in a package, and then signed Stein from the transfer market. Lin and Aubameyang, but such an operation made Chelsea's striker unable to score goals, which made Burleigh have to turn his attention to the striker during the winter transfer period.
D-Fofana, Felix, and Mudrick came one after another. Now Chelsea has 11 wingers + forwards on the front line. Together, it is too difficult to become a combative team. However, Burleigh's signings are not over yet. After the frontcourt and backcourt are saturated through buying people, Burleigh's next goal is the midfielder. Chelsea was very interested in Argentine star Enzo Fernandez before, but Benfica insisted on 120 million The asking price of the euro made Chelsea discouraged.
Burleigh set his sights on Porter's former club, Brighton, intending to take away Brighton's midfielders Caicedo and McAllister. The combined worth of these two midfielders will not exceed Enzo - Fernandez. In addition, Brighton's winger Trossard has conflicts with coach De Zelby and may seek a transfer. Chelsea does not mind taking them away together. Chelsea's next schedule is intensive. The next round of the Premier League will be a guest at Anfield to challenge Liverpool, and then there will be two London derbies against Fulham and West Ham United, and then the Champions League knockout round will start. There is not much time left for Porter.
