TheHulk 2,636 Posted January 4, 2023 Share Posted January 4, 2023 From what I understand, Benfica did not show intransigence, so much so that they accepted the offer that Chelsea had made a week ago. Chelsea didn't keep that offer and wanted to pay less than the first offer they made and, as I also read, rui costa was still hurt by Chelsea, for not keeping the first offer. Super lol if true.

TheHulk 2,636 Posted January 4, 2023 Share Posted January 4, 2023 This deal will only go ahead if Mendes convinces Chelsea to bear the interest on the credit operation, a bit like he did with Félix's operation with Atlético... so that Chelsea pays in several installments but Benfica receives the 120M ready. So the deal progresses, but... I'm beginning to have doubts because Chelsea are trying their best to divert Mudryk from Arsenal and willing to reach 80M + extras. Imagine ending January with no Enzo and only because we bought a guy who whored himself for months for another team. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vegetable 830 Posted January 4, 2023 Share Posted January 4, 2023 I for one wouldn't be so harsh on TB lowballing offer on unproven wonderkid in-the-making, when he isn't worth the clause and some people think he will hit ground running tomorrow and magically transform us into Real Madrid, because he did good in WC. People outside this board seem more cold-headed and see him as a prospect + he ain't no Touchniemi, there is no Real and City in the door, willing to pay 130 millions for him, so they may have a reason for it, since they seem bit smarter in transfers than we are… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pizy 19,252 Posted January 4, 2023 Share Posted January 4, 2023 Genuinely thought today was the day we’d get a briefing from all the usual reliable sources that a deal had been agreed. Not the full, official club announcement but the likes of Ornstein, Fab, etc saying everything was done but the medical. Instead it looks to have imploded.

Excited about the will he or won't he, yesterday it was the polar opposite of today. You never really know with these things, the rollercoaster of emotions to me is exciting. 12 minutes ago, MoroccanBlue said: Deal falls through.

Vegetable 830 Posted January 4, 2023 Share Posted January 4, 2023 + Mudryk, lol, respect to this guy, but the subtle change in calibre of players we are linked with to Arsenal-Tottenham targets levels suggest, that under new regime we are really dynamically building a new identity. Sort of mid-table one, but still. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Booing and demanding ownership to leave while simultaneously giving them money is about the most contradictory thing you can do. Vesper 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An utter miracle we won the CL under Tuchel after this catastrophic array of poor transfers since 2017. Strike, Costa19 and Laylabelle 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
