Chelsea 100% nonetheless should signal a brand new goalkeeper this summer season – opinion

IF Chelsea handle to get Jorrel Hato and Xavi Simons within the door and type the outgoing offers that we have to get finished. Then we’re only a goalkeeper away from a VERY good switch window this summer season.

I can’t fairly name it good, as a result of I’ll be sincere and say that I nonetheless carry a little bit of concern in regards to the 9s we have now. Not hundreds, and folks know I charge Liam Delap, and Joao Pedro is class. However for me, there’s nonetheless some questions that want answering in that place no matter what occurs with Nicolas Jackson.

I additionally assume we might use one other out and out centre again to name it an ideal window however once more, this will likely nicely rely on outgoings. However regardless of a greater finish to the season, I don’t totally belief our present out and out centre again choices, so this stays one other query mark for me.

However the precedence MUST be a brand new goalkeeper, and no I don’t care that Robert Sanchez had a greater finish to the season (I do care because it was clearly nice for Chelsea and for him however you get my level). Does that cancel out the terrible one and a half seasons he’s had earlier than then? NO, it doesn’t. Sanchez will at all times have these enormous mind fart moments in him and won’t give us the boldness wanted on the again. That has not modified for me at this stage, and I do know it has not modified for almost all of Chelsea followers both (as a result of the polls say so). No briefings will persuade anybody.

I’m nonetheless listening to that Chelsea are new goalkeepers this summer season and it’s at all times been a job for the tip of the window. Mike Maignan might nonetheless be revisited as nicely and is exhibiting no indicators of extending his AC Milan contract as of but. None of that’s over as of proper now. Chelsea might simply return in for him however I’m but to listen to of any actions as of now.

I’ll consider it once I see it and I do have fears that they’ll determine to not deliver a brand new goalkeeper and for me that will be felony and a VERY poor choice. It is not going to undo the superb work finished this window, in fact it wont. However I will be unable to name it a VERY good window until we tackle the massive goalkeeper downside we have now had for a lot of seasons now. We did the identical with striker and look what occurred there. We saved ignoring that downside and it brought about us main points in entrance of aim. Do NOT do the identical for goalkeeper.

The perfect groups have the perfect and most trusted goalkeepers. If we wish to elevate and problem ALL season and never simply within the ultimate ten video games, then we’d like a TOP goalkeeper and to improve what we have now.

I’ll be sincere, if we don’t get a brand new goalkeeper, regardless of being excited with lots of the different new signings we have now made this summer season, I received’t assist however stay relatively underwhelmed and I don’t imply to sound spoilt by saying that. This for me was precedence AFTER the 9 place, but it’s nonetheless not been addressed. I’ve some religion that will probably be as a result of absolutely it must be, and it’s apparent that they needed to as a result of they went for Maignan. You possibly can’t simply inform everybody it was only a random alternative that you simply checked out as a result of we all know Maignan has been needed for 3 years at Chelsea.

So, go get him for a BARGAIN price and make this a close to good window (in addition to type some severe outgoings). It’s that straightforward.
