Chelsea Football Club have had a fairly successful transfer window up until now. Yes, the Blues have missed out on Romelu Lukaku but on the other hand, they have also made some great signings. Conte has managed to bring in the likes of Alvaro Morata, Tiemoue Bakayoko and Antonio Rudiger which has made the fans quite happy.
Even though the Chelsea fans were a bit upset with the fact that their club sold Nemanja Matic to Manchester United – a direct rival, but they did receive as much as £40 million for him, which seemed to be a fairly good deal. But no matter what everyone says, Nemanja Matic was a very important player in the team, and Conte knows that very well. As a result of which the Blues are now out in the market trying to find a suitable replacement for the Serbian midfielder.
Up until this point, the Chelsea fans were quite happy with their team and its management.

But then suddenly a news started filtering out of London that Chelsea are eyeing a move for Leicester City’s Danny Drinkwater as a possible replacement for Matic. And as soon as this news started doing the rounds, the Chelsea fans lost their cool and started showing their disbelief and anger at the same time.
Here are a few opinions:
Selling Matic for £40-50m has now brought Chelsea up to £200m in sales since JANUARY..

No chance I'm sleeping tonight. Danny Drinkwater? This club has a dedication to banter that hasn't been seen in a millennia.
