Pizy 19,329 Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 Boehly is such a madman in the market that I wouldn’t be shocked at all if we offered £150m for Bellingham in the summer after botching the Enzo deal. Whether or not he would ever agree to come here without CL footy for the season I very much doubt. But I think we WILL try to match or exceed any bid for him.

I see several not happy or dubits on the forum! IMO maybe some millions too expensive but this is the price in the current football! I prefer put money on him or felix, young with probably some problems but that have great skills and techniche for sure instead of waste money in player who got only some god stats o played a season in one team where all go right for one season! I talk about player like: lukaku, drinkwater, bakayoko and others like ziyech, koulibay, sterling, pulisic! All these players or most looked good before they arrived at Chelsea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vegetable 830 Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 Registration slots aside, we have just 9 homegrown players, including somewhat fictional Castillo in first team and U21 players won't be U21 forever. Also, not sure about RLC, Chalo and Gallagher situation, so yeah, hope they have a plan for it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wow. Idiotic to say least. Given how the Raphinia circus was (not) handled and how Enzo circus was (not) handled, our new PR team undergone the refreshment as great as the medical team did.

Superblue 6,372 Posted January 14, 2023 Share Posted January 14, 2023 1 hour ago, TheHulk said: In how many installment is this? If we're talking FFP requirements, instalments are irrelevant. The transfer fee will be amortised over the length of the contract so certainly the base fee of 70m will be split over 7.5 years. I'm not sure how the add ons are included, I would assume that either they are realised for FFP in the year in which they are achieved or once achieved, they are then amortised over the rest of the contract length. It certainly allows the club to spend more now and spread funds further, but I guess presents a new risk in itself by having players tied to huge contract lengths if they don't work out. We've already found in the past how difficult it can be to move some players on due to their wages. Of course on the flip side if some of these players prove to be a hit, then it looks an absolute masterstroke. This is where the Enzo deal causes problems because the release clause is one where the player must activate it which means Chelsea would need to pay Enzo the 120m to activate the clause himself. I believe by paying the player, it's treated in a different way for FFP and the whole 120m would be absorbed into the first year. What I am interested in is the conversation @Vesper and @YorkshireBlue were having regarding the sale and its potential impact on FFP. IF it's true that we effectively start again from zero for FFP because of the sale then that is huge. There are still some big FFP liabilities on the books (20m for Lukaku for example), so if they are essentially written off for FFP requirements it presents a significant degree of flexibility (Badiashille and Mudryk for example would be around half of Lukaku's FFP expense per annum).

Drinkwater and bakayoko were in one season team with sensational teammate but they weren't the centre of the team! Lukaku has had one great season at inter under a stats pov thank Conte, but failed in all the others season and his skills as control of the ball ecc are always been shit.
