Bertrand Traore, Dominic Solanke, Tammy Abraham

Chelsea with a little foresight wouldn’t be in this position.

They sold Bertrand Traore despite the fact that he was phenomenal for Ajax during the Europa League last season.

They let Dominic Solanke go despite the fact that he was compared with Zlatan Ibrahimovic by scouts and will now be setting a record in compensation from Liverpool as adjudged by a court.

The loaned out Tammy Abraham despite the fact he broke by some distance the record for most goals scored by a teenager in the Championship last year.  The striker who’s record he broke was now Celtic player Moussa Dembele’s (he’s now valued at 40 million).

Chelsea should really not be signing anyone.  They should just be running their club better.  The current crisis is entirely caused by poor talent evaluation and mismanagement at the director level.
