The final week of the transfer window awaits, and despite Chelsea's spending creeping towards £200million, it can't be ignored how much work Todd Boehly and Thomas Tuchel still have to do.
The Blues have already seen the arrivals of Kalidou Koulibaly, Raheem Sterling, Carney Chukwuemeka and Marc Cucurella, as well as several additions to the development squad, including Cesare Casadei and Omari Hutchinson. In the opposite direction, Chelsea's loan army has already started to form, while Emerson Palmieri, Timo Werner and Matt Miazga have left the club permanently.
A number of deals still need to happen, and Wesley Fofana, Anthony Gordon and Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang are taking up a great deal of space on the back pages. The Blues have seen a third bid rejected by Leicester City, but Brendan Rodgers' latest words have given cause for hope.
