'Tears In My Eyes Man': Chelsea Fans React To Felix Loan Move To Stamford Bridge

As per David Ornstein and Fabrizio Romano, Joao Felix is set to join Chelsea from Atletico Madrid on a €11 million loan move till the end of the season.

Blues fans had a mixed reaction to the signing of Felix, with some feeling excited while some exercised cautious optimism:

Justablue: "FROM OUTTA NOWHERE!"

Darklord: "Personally still rate him highly and I think he'll do well. Has a lot of qualities we desperately need at the moment. Hopefully there's some possibility to sign him if he does do well."

Scorpia: "I can't be excited for signings anymore I'm too jaded with this season."

Chelsea signing Joao Felix. Tears in my eyes man

We’re basically loaning him for the CL & to stay up. Seems pointless unless he’s actually good to purchase outright.

Feels like an apology to Mendes after Enzo and to keep good relations. https://t.co/Vhsdk5fS18

Phillip: "11m for half a season is pretty crazy isn't it?" 

Asd: "I mean, it's another body if nothing else. Fact is that Chelsea have 9 first team injuries and need all the help they can get in attack. No sense in panic buying someone in January with Nkunku apparently coming and the season being a wash anyway. If he's good, great! If he's just another shit "not quite a striker" who can't fix the attack, then no real harm done."
