      Hire a real coach and sign 3-5 experienced players and we can have a conversation

      At some point the board will run out of bones to throw us. This is great news, but it’s also papering over the cracks big time

      Bruhh people at Chelsea higher ups now really are stupid. Which fans can be convinced by just only this lmao

    13. petrescu on

      Millionaires really think we’re fucking stupid simply because they have more cash than us.

    15. WizberryHoleington on

      Fuck yeah! Now that a single player has extended his contract by 12 months all of my fears for the club are gone!!

      Fucking braindead

      He was already under contract for a fucking decade, giving him an extra 25k a week means fuck all to me. Surround him with better players. Get him a better manager. Win some fucking games. That will convince people

      Ha sure…these owners would have to go scorched earth to get us believing again. Get a real manager, sign experienced quality players, change transfer policy and remove the SDs and their nepo hires from the club. A new contract just isn’t going to cut it

    21. AnonymousGen on

      Absolutely not LOL. Get us experienced players and a title winning manager then we know they’re serious

      Is this Gill suggesting this, or has he some source suggesting it?

      If it’s the former, read the fucking room.

      If it’s the latter, erm, read the fucking room.

      Lmfao why? Caicedo makes more money in the interim and can still force his way out if he wants to. 

    28. Dinamo8 on

      Caicedo was already contracted to the club till 2031, adding a couple of more years doesn’t really mean anything.

    29. TheNarrator23 on

      We need to ship out 5-6 players and adequately replace them before we can even start to talk about the direction of the club.

    32. poopy_toaster on

      We have Caicedo locked down for YEARS. A contract extension of a long term player in most teams isn’t enough. It’s a nicety, not a necessity.

      Crazy you would tell a journo “I hope this works”. I understand why you do it, but you’re not supposed to spell it out like that

    38. Nameistrivial on

      They don’t understand nor care about how football works, otherwise we wouldn’t be getting such articles.

    40. Fun_Reputation5181 on

      What a shock our online “supporters” receive this fantastic news with nothing but negativity. This is good news and an example of the plan working. I remain extremely hopeful for both the short and long term of the club, exactly as I have over the past 30 years.

    41. dav_man on

      Nope. It means a PE company is trying to protect one of the few good investments it’s made.

    42. NoodleKaboodle24 on

      We need to see some progress on and off the pitch. On it we need to balance this young obsession with a few seasoned players. We need CL football regularly.

      Off it we need a shirt sponsor, financial stability, commercial and stadium progress.

      Without both we’re going backwards

    44. xStealthxUk on

      Is Caicedo extra money goin to turn into an experienced CB and start leading the team?

      If not we aren’t convinced

    45. lance777 on

      Is that his second renewal? I thought I saw renewal articles a while ago. Was that not done?

    46. Dastardlyv5 on

      And I hope that because I put petrol in the car my wife wont realize the missing wheels. Jesus wept.

    49. Alternative_Law_8600 on

      They can hope all they want. No amount of PR will convince me until we compete properly and stop hiring yes man and firing them when they demand experience
