El P. 1,354 Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 How in the world Alisson can be more expensive than Thibo? I mean, Thibo is playing for 5 years on very good, sometimes excellent level. And now, this guy comes with one great season under his belt and what, he's worth 70 milions? And recently - World Cup golden glove, lol. We should be profiting from this deal, not losing money. Also, Thibo has only 26 years, only year more than this guy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tibo Contract until 30.06.2019 Alisson Contract until 30.06.2021 That's where the prices come from. That + them knowing us and pool are desperate, while Tibo is desperate to leave.

ChelseaFanUK 1,014 Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 We're either going to steam in and agree a fee from nowhere from Alisson. Or a left field surprise. Twitter is funny tonight, Liverpool fans are absolutely convinced Alisson would never choose us over them as they're far superior, yet at the same time; are panicking like fuck that we will bid. Why care if he's definitely choosing you Dippers? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ChelseaFanUK 1,014 Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 Roma haven't accepted a bid have they? I aint seen anything. I would not be surprised if they are waiting for us knowing we are letting Courtois go Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Chelsea want him really, they have to act and now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is a GK FFS and he is barely more than flavour of the month. when we can get a goalie who is maybe 10% worse but costs 80% less then it is a good deal and of those goalies there are plenty.

It's in Euros. So say about 71 million pounds The value being quoted is too much for a GK, I agree. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, it'll be important as to what we do with the money saved. Buying an absolutely average 35 million player would be a no go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thor 2,698 Posted July 18, 2018 Share Posted July 18, 2018 He is a great goalkeeper, but at the end of the day, it is the least important position on the pitch. There are plenty of keepers who are 90% of Tibo and Alisson, who you wouldn't notice a difference with, particularly if they are in form, and end up being at their level. I just don't think this is a position where we should spend more than we did for someone like Jorginho in midfield. It all seems a bit ridiculous.

We should be spending that momey on a winger of real quality. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
