The numbers for Raheem leaving. He had an Amortized transfer fee of £9.5M then whatever his buyout was, rumours are £20M. That is £29.5m PSR hit, but it is offset by what the club would have paid him in total wages on his contract. That is reported to be £25.4M. If the rumoured buyout is correct that is a £4.1M PSR hit, but then the lower total wage for the club is factored in and it could be close to a break even for this year and really great for next year’s PSR total. I think PSR is averaged over 5 years. So it does become a net positive starting next year, and not much of a hit this year, if at all. I had ChatGPT search for all the money figures and PSR accounting. Took about four searches for the money involved and the accounting rules. All this is as accurate as the sources ChatGPT used.

Wow no more nickname. He must be doing something good.

That would be pretty fucked up. Uproot Anselmino from Germany midseason where he was happy and then dropping him in yet another country as a makeweight. Just treating human beings as chess pieces moving around a board.

where you read that?

Anselmino may go on loan to Rennes.... Makes sense now

Rosenior is a really good listen, he speaks incredibly well before and after games. Up to now he has got the results barring the Arsenal game but has a chance to turn that one round, so kudos to him so far. Last night I liked his pro active subs, he wasn't scared to shake it up and I like what I saw with his changes. When I watch him I feel sorry for him, he still looks to me like a homeless man that has been brought off the streets and is now working in MacDonalds. He's saying the right things and making the right changes, I really hope it continues.

Seems the only way Rennes will agree to sell him now is if a club pays them £60m or wherever it was to eclipse the Doku sale. That’s like £20m more than what Fabrizio reported that we wanted to pay. Guess we’ll find out within the next couple of days how badly we want him and how highly the directors rate him. Because if they pass now and wait until the summer he’ll have who knows how many suitors pushing. I’m still skeptical about him and puzzled that we brought Anselmino back.

I am happy to give him credit for fixing it at half time, to an extent... But he's just fixing his own quite embarrassing error, if we're honest. I think the really ballsy move, that he didn't do but should have, would have been to bring on Chalobah in the first half itself and fully admit his error as soon as it was obvious - it should have been obvious before the game, but still, if he thinks these players have some miraculous ability to play that system with no coaching time, as soon as he sees they can't, the next minute he should be changing it if he's a decisive manager that wants to win more than anything. That said, I am not in the 'hate Liam' club and find him somewhat likeable, if a bit cheesy and in need of a tiny bit of refinement in terms of how he talks to the media (he's clearly not being his authentic self compared to how you see him chatting in candid moments on camera imo). He is way better at talking to the media than Maresca was though, although he had some nice moments ("Who said that?" legendary etc).

What really impressed me about the game is Rosenior got the CB line all wrong on the starting 11. He didn’t go down with his ill fated game plan. He completely scrapped it at halftime when he could go over a new game plan with the players needed. I get really irked when a manager gets the set up wrong for the game being played, but doesn’t have the courage to change it. I also liked he pulled Gittens even though he was a second half sub when Lukaku came on to make sure Lukaku couldn’t try to use the only thing left in his career, to bully smaller players. Rosenior puts the team over hurting a players feelings.

We need him now, none of this for summer shite

Matt Law saying Chelsea will try again this weekend to sign Jacquet immediately and the player's preference is to move to Chelsea now.

Not at all. It will come down to Newcastle or PSG mostly and I'd happily take Newcastle.

I personally hope we don’t play any PL at all in the UCL. Just kind of boring. At least until the Final if we were to make it all the way.

Nah, that’s literally what they’ve agreed to pay!

He has not scored a goal from open play this season in the league and they are getting relegated. Palace are obviously desperate but they should be able to negotiate that fee down.

He took a discounted pay-out, per BBC: https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/articles/cm2yp21zjzqo Raheem Sterling has left Chelsea by mutual consent after reaching an agreement to end his contract early. The 31-year-old had 18 months remaining on his £325,000‑a‑week deal. Sterling leaves after three-and-a-half seasons at Stamford Bridge following his move from Manchester City for £47.5m in 2022. Sterling will receive a payout from Chelsea, while the club will save money as the settlement will be less than the figure of over £20m he would have been paid had he stayed for the remaining year and a half of his contract.

They can now sell Mateta

£50m for Strand Larsen to Palace. Fucking hell! I couldn’t tell you one thing he’s ever done and he’s going for £50m!

Moises Caicedo for me is a lot like N’Golo Kante in terms of style of play. Let’s be…View the full article

A Chelsea supporter has described his "shock" after being stabbed and taken to hospital before Wednesday's Champions League match against Napoli in Italy. Marcus, 22, who did not want to give his surname, said he and a group of Chelsea fans were targeted in the centre of Naples by a group of Napoli 'ultras' - a term used for hardcore supporter groups in European football. "We turned a corner - it wasn't technically an alleyway, but it felt like one because there were no lights," he said. "There were about 20 or 30 people, all in black, walking towards us as soon as we made eye contact. Some people knew what was happening and ran straight away." Marcus, who was with "seven or eight" friends, added: "It was definitely a shock. Everyone was shaken up when we eventually found the police. "I was in shorts and they were covered in blood, with blood going all down my leg. We think it was a screwdriver – it could've been a Stanley blade. It was either that or a screwdriver. "I didn't really feel it until I started running away. My left cheek felt heavy, almost, and as soon as I touched it my hand was covered in blood Italians usually stab in the arse or legs, it carries a lesser sentence

I would have sold him or just shredded his contract in atleast 7 separate occasions during his Chelsea career.but him and Penders pushing him next season I'd be glad to see.Jorgensen has been pretty good in his recent games too but writing just seems on the wall.i wouldn't be against loaning Jorgensen before selling as think he could boost his price tag elsewhere first.
