Laylabelle 9,535 Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 I just hope this summer window is one to remember for the right reasons. Not a case of who we nearly signed but argued to much over the price or who chose elsewhere or who messed up but who we manage to sign. Need those little sparks again to get things going next season with less annoying games Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He'd probably get a 2 year deal or 1 year with option to extend like Giroud. For a short term injection of quality for a season or two we could do a LOT worse.

Superblue 6,372 Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 We paid £18m didn't we for Giroud under similar circumstances? £10m isn't a bad deal at all. Obviously his wages would be pretty high I'd imagine but we've moved some big earners from the wage bill over the last 12 months. I've been very vocal about not wasting money in this transfer window to give ourselves the strongest position possible to make moves in the summer but I wouldn't see a huge deal of risk in this. If he struggles, I assume we'd be able to move him on again in the summer, probably to Atletico for a few million and buy a new striker then. But if he does well we may view the striking position with Tammy and Cavani to be fine to move into next season and allow us to focus on other needs in our squad in the summer. We can then move on a striker the following summer when hopefully we have less holes in our squad by then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
!Hazard! 3,394 Posted January 20, 2020 Share Posted January 20, 2020 For £10m it's gamble worth taking. We've spent far more on far inferior players in the past. Besides, how many strikers do Atletico need? They must have something between 5 and 10 strikers in their books already Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But this is why we're a million miles off from challenging for the title these days. We have people making hugely important decisions who haven't a clue what they're doing, making bad signing after bad signing. The only consolation is we're not the only top club getting it very badly wrong. . . Vesper, Atomiswave and Fernando 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dembele signing would effectively end our pursuit for Werner or someone of a similar ilk in the Summer. Werner is not coming here, I am 90% plus convinced, maybe 95% the only other great striker who MAY move (doubtful atm and he will be hugely expensive, and will also not come here, is Lautaro) Dembele is the best of the lot we can get realistically hope for, unless we somehow get Shitty to cough up Jesus, but that is so not happening unless the cough up Jesus is Pep choking on a communion wafer we are cray to pay 25m quid for a 33yo who is on almost 20m euros a year salary (Cavani) IF he and PSG BOTH come WAY down then sure, stopgap is fine but I doubt either does, and thus even 18 months of Cavani will cost close to almost 45-50m pounds (fee plus salary) we cannot spend like that especially as £142m Kepa looks like he is a serious potential bust and I (despite it basically being almost a no brainer given his age and poor play where we play him) think we will NOT sell Kante in the summer (which likely is going to fuck us hard in the long run at multiple levels) and dog help us if we miss out on CL again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChelseaFanUK 1,014 Posted January 21, 2020 Share Posted January 21, 2020 Says in Telegraph article that Leonardo says Atletico havent contacted them at all since they rejected their bid. I'd just throw the 10m at them, sign him for 18 months He wont take 6 months anywhere, he is out of contract in June and could negotiate another move away at that time. He'd may aswell stay at PSG and do that anyway if that were the case, or sign a pre contract with someone and join in June. anyone signing him will need to offer minimum 12 months. Guarantee whoever he joins, he does not sign a 6 month deal Vesper 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
