Chelsea urged to sign own Erling Haaland as Thomas Tuchel faces Robert Lewandowski decision

For many years now, the same old story has been replayed for the Chelsea faithful. The Blues would be in a much better position if they had the right calibre of strikers on their side. I can only go off of the possibility that this statement is true. What if the Blues had their ideal striker playing for them? What if they could have won the FA Cup last season or the season before that?

As per every other FA Cup final the Blues have played in Wembley in the last three years, Chelsea did not take their chances. The game was there for them to take but they just fell drastically short which was such a shame. You could argue that things would have been different with a striker such as Erling Haaland or even dare I say it, Robert Lewandowski.

The Bayern Munich forward has confirmed that he will be leaving the German giants this summer. "I can confirm that I spoke to Hasan [Salihamidzic, Bayern sporting director] and informed him that the decision was made -- and that I am not extending my contract with FC Bayern," he told Sky Germany.
