Chelsea have so far acted quickly and efficiently in the transfer market this month. Deals have been wrapped up smoothly, often coming out of nowhere to be completed within a matter of days.
David Datro Fofana was confirmed before the window had opened, Andrey Santos wasn't far behind him and Benoit Badiashile was announced with little commotion. Even Joao Felix was secured before Manchester United and Arsenal had really set their stall or made a decision.
Noni Madueke signed soon after a bid was made with his injury record the only real worry to deal with and Malo Gusto - despite what senior figures at Lyon said publicly - was a simple deal to pull off. For a club that spent the summer splashing around in the deep end at this time this is a remarkable turn of events.
