Why would anyone do that? Is ridiculous since we are an English team and we always talk in pounds.

Why do people still say David luiz went for 50? He went for like 37 million: When Luiz was sold, there was £11.5m left in book value on the transfer fee paid to Benfica. As such, in order to record a profit of £25.43m, Luiz would have had to have been sold for around £37m, a far cry from the £48m or £50m that was being widely reported at the time. As for the significant discrepancy, this may have been a situation where the 48-50m figure was actually in euros and "" was simply replaced with "£" without doing the proper currency conversion. A £37m transfer fee and £25m profit for Jose Mourinho's third-choice centre-back is still an excellent piece of business, mind you, but as mentioned, at a much lower fee than originally thought. http://weaintgotnohistory.sbnation.com/2015/1/12/7527747/chelsea-financial-accounts-ffp

Seeing it like that it does look class as compare to Turkish Airlines.

Some rumors already starting about Hazard to Real Madrid. They will give us Modric plus 50 millions. I have to say I find it very suspicious that he has not signed a new contract by now. If he was committed he would have signed by now!

This confirms it. Real Madrid must be crap because Torres scored on them twice!

^You need to add that is best coach ever for Portugal like recently Ronaldo was voted best ever for Portugal.

I wonder how this guy must feel now: Meet little Leandro Lampard, or Lampardinho to hi:

I would take mirallas for Salah. That will help improve our quality for rotational players.

I would like it if we can get rid of Salah for miralas. That would be a great upgrade.

Yeah but that assumes we are successful every year. Now it's a good thing to have to push up our numbers, but here is when Commercial and stadium are costing us. Thankfully to the new sponsorship you have told us about it should help us a bit more.

Good point. But to me what keeps standing out is this: However, it's important to note that had Chelsea not sold David Luiz, Juan Mata, Kevin De Bruyne and Jeffrey Bruma, Chelsea would've taken a £47m loss. The club earned £65m in profit from player sales (which is not included in the £319m in turnover, by the way), and for what it's worth, the underlying numbers make that loss look quite a bit less scary, especially through the lens of FFP accounting and UEFA's break-even calculation. This why it baffles me that people think we can afford Messi....if we didn't sell those players we would barely make it with FFP.

Men your something. How can you continue to put false hope up like this? If anything is a tell it's the finance. The swissramble.blogspot.com is out on the Chelsea account and you know what was telling? That had we not sold the players we did Chelsea would have made a 40 million loss. We are in no position to undertake such a spenditure when we are just still trying to make ends meet here.

City is getting him for 25 million. To be fair that ain't that bad price for a good striker, but I agree with you we need to spend the cash in other positions that are lacking.

Manchester City agree £25m deal to sign Wilfried Bony from Swansea http://www.theguardian.com/football/2015/jan/11/anchester-city-agree-fee-sign-wilfried-bony-swansea-city If you want to believe that guy suit yourself, but I rather believe the guardian.....

Amazing loan for him and now we get some money from him this summer! :blue scalf:

Manchester City have agreed a fee of £25m rising to £28m with Swansea City for the striker Wilfried Bony, who is set to sign a 4½-year deal worth £100,000 a week. Bony’s recruitment means Manuel Pellegrini will have to drop one of his 16 allocated overseas players from City’s Champions League squad.

Men if Koeman gets the Saints into the CL he deserves coach of the year!

CHELSEA have trained their sights on a surprise move for Borussia Dortmund star Marco Reus. http://www.express.co.uk/sport/football/551307/Chelsea-Transfer-News-Reus-Fabregas-Messi-Varane

The entire season? Especially in pl with Christmas fixtures and all that? I remember saf was very creative and changed up players here and there. It help a lot his team.

And I saw cahill kicking a Tottenham player and not get banned. So there is no campaign against Chelsea. Is just mourinho usual nonsense of deflecting from the truth. A. Our defense is our weakest link B. Our lack of rotation is costing us. So it seems mourinho has finally noticed that our defense is our weakest link. Just only took a beating from tottenham to figure that out..... Now is zouma our answer? I don't know, but if he's not good enough then let's buy a new cb and put cahill as a sub. But if we are not going to buy a cb I rather gamble more on zouma then cahill as he's younger and might have a lot of potential.

Regardless of this I know which club will benefit the most, NYCFC. Because he will come in top form and that will be amazing for the team. So as sad it's for a Chelsea fan I will enjoy it when I see him in the MLS. Especially when NY takes on Steven Gerrard Galaxy in the summer!

Took half a season for him to realize but right on time.

Didn't you said that if mourinho starts zouma over cahill you will put pictures of yourself in bikinis? ?

This is nothing but tap dancing from both parties now.
