Chelsea fans have been frustrated for much of the summer transfer window as other clubs strengthened and all they read on the news were transfer rumours and other clubs signing the players linked with the Blues.
Many fans cast their minds back to the Jose Mourinho era where Chelsea fought relegation battle after ending the previous season as champions.
Before Saturday, Chelsea had only signed two players, one of which was the free signing of Willy Caballero, the other being the arrival of Antonio Rudiger. Fans were worried and many even went as far as insulting the Chelsea board.
But the club have now announced three super deals in a four-day space to the amazement of the Chelsea fans. On Saturday, the signing of Tiemoue Bakayako from Monaco was announced – a very key signing in the midfield position.
On Tuesday, Chelsea announced the signing of a new contract by Antonio Conte, a deal many fans hailed as the signing of the summer. The Italian has been sensational in his first season in charge of the club and the Chelsea faithful have warmed up to him pretty well.
On Wednesday, Chelsea took it a step further to announce that a deal has been struck for longtime target Alvaro Morata and this seems to be the icing on the cake. Even when Chelsea were being linked with Romelu Lukaku, many fans saw it as a waste of money and wanted the club to sign Morata. Chelsea have Morata now and the fans have their wish.
Within four days, Chelsea turned the frowns of the fans to smiles, and to think that there’s still over a month left to wrap up the transfer window, one can only imagine how strong the team will be ahead of the new season.
Now, we can look forward to the new season knowing that the club is on the right path.
