You can't look at it in that way because there is absolutely no guarantee that we buy Colwill back.

 

I said potential

Cucurella side is done, hence his agent replying to Romano on IG.

Romano has had the nod and the deal for him to join us is done, just the Colwell deal to finish up. It's like a war of words and Fab is going what he always done and confirming with here we go based on the agent confirming everything.

Cucurella is a Chelsea player.

Yes but you're already assessing the transfer as if this will happen because you're mentioning it being a £70m+ transfer which is why you don't like it. 

If Colwill develops into a top centre back then buying him for less than £50m in a couple of years time will likely prove good value anyway. There's no guarantee that if he stayed here and only played 15-20 games that he'd progress in the way we want him too. If he goes somewhere like Brighton and thrives it's all worked out well.

For now if he's helped facilitate us buying a very good player, and in doing so essentially driven down the net price with his own transfer value then that's a pretty good deal all around for us I think.

Not directed at you in any way, but I'm pretty sure there were a lot of people who were rating Cucurella really highly on this forum at the end of last season and that we should go for him. Then when City looked like capturing him, again it was being talked about like a very strong signing for them.

Suddenly we're in for him and looking likely to secure him and the feeling suddenly seems a lot more mixed. I think he could be a lot more important than people realise or think next season if Chilwell struggles to regain his form and fitness pre injury.

I did prefer him if we cannot see any proper guy to sign. Past Premier league experience will help alot. Can still do a good job for a season or two until we have a younger guy trustworthy enough to fill in the striker roll for us. He did score loads of goals for us.

No matter how often I may be told, "You cannot understand the meaning of life so do not think about it, but live," I can no longer do it: I have already done it too long. I cannot now help seeing day and night going round and bringing me to death. That is all I see, for that alone is true. All else is false.

Remember seeing a lot of Alex Telles on this thread some time ago.

Massively overrated LB IMO and now an official PL flop.

It's so ridiculous that in these days every PL club wants 200 million
