We're in a search of a goal keeper doesn't mean we're urgently in need of one. Don't forget we have about three goal keepers already. Mendy our previous number one has been injuried for quite sometime now and the talks on the renewal of his contract isn't progressing on a positive note which means he's likely to depart in the summer so we're now in search of a replacement for him so we don't fall into the same situation of panic buying like we did in January which clubs take advantage of and increase the value of their players knowing we're desperate and will pay the fee.
Chelsea is undergoing a rebuild with a new owner that wants his own players and not those inherited from the previous owners. Chelsea is a big club in Europe and known to be big spenders so you don't expect them to get their players cheap. The 500+ millions we spent got us about 8+ players and not all are available for the season so when you look at it we didn't over spend. The quality of players that were bought are brilliant so it isn't a wasted investments. We just need a quality coach to get this boys playing well again, Graham Potter isn't giving the vibe the squad needs.
I "get" it, like there is no rush, but if you are going to end up getting one, isn't it silly to not get one inside that 500? Why know that you are going to need one eventually and buy players for other positions. I know that there is a "hope" for the team among the fans for the future, like yeah this year sucked but the team you built "looks" good so you may do better next year, just like how Newcastle sucked last year at first but then got the money and now they are good, you expect that.
But, I honestly believe that you made some wrong moves and spent way too much for most players and you are going to be not so great for a long time and keep spending even more without any good returns.
